这里展示的程序允许呼吸肌肉活动和通风的无创（发射机的初始手术植入后）测量了在相同的动物数月。该技术具有超过在麻醉的小鼠标准EMG技术的若干优点：1）在实验中需要更少的小鼠，并提供在跨越疾病阶段的单个小鼠（以记录的，而不是使用多个小鼠在不同的疾病阶段）来自同一个站点数据的能力; 2）数据分析可以与更强大的统计测试（ 即，使用重复测量的，而不是单独的比较实?...

在高需求（ 如运动）的时间辅助呼吸肌（ARMS）加大通风量，并有助于在隔膜功能受损以下损伤或疾病1，2，保持通风。虽然在光圈功能变化在肌萎缩侧索硬化（ALS）的患者和小鼠模型已经很好地描述3，4，5，6，较少被知道关于在ALS臂的活性或功能。然而，一项研究表明，招募ARM的ALS患者比那些具有类似隔膜功能障碍不7预后较好。此外，ARM活性足以在隔膜麻痹8的情况下呼吸。这些研究表明，战略，以增强ARM功能可以改善breathi纳克在从神经肌肉疾病，脊髓损伤，或在其中振动板功能受损的其它条件的患者。然而，控制ARM招聘呼吸的机制在很大程度上是未知的。方法来测量呼吸功能，并研究组是如何招募需要在疾病或损伤的动物模型时间ARM活动的变化，以及评价疗法来改善ARM招聘和通风。此外，手臂与光圈功能的渐进性丧失一致的增加的活性可以是用于神经肌肉疾病如ALS 7，9，10的疾病进展的有用的生物标志物。 该方案描述于非侵入性的方法（以下初始手术）和重复地测量在清醒，表现小鼠呼吸肌和通风的活性。肌电图的同步录音Y（EMG），全身体积描记法（WBP）和视频允许研究者评估ARM活动冲击通风如何变化，并确定当被摄体处于静止或移动的。这种方法的一个主要优点是，它可以在清醒，表现小鼠中执行，而一些可替代的方法来测量的EMG需要麻醉和/或是终端的程序11，12，13。 EMG活动的对清醒小鼠随时间的记录，也可以通过EMG的长期植入引线，其中，所述鼠标通过导线拴到采集系统14，15来完成的。因为栓系小鼠可与正常运动或行为干扰和可能不与一个标准的体积描记法室兼容，所描述的方法使用遥测装置以无线方式传输的EMG信号的采集系统。变送器可以上或关闭用磁铁以节省电池电量，并允许重复EMG活动的测量超过几个月。该协议可以很容易地适应通过将EMG测量的额外呼吸或非呼吸肌活性通向不同的肌肉。可替代地，两个引线中的一个可以被用于测量脑电活动来评估睡眠状态或识别发作活动16。该技术已成功用于测量在休息在整个疾病进展的ALS小鼠模型中ARM活性的变化，并确定关键的神经元驱动臂活动健康小鼠10。
