Effect of ionotropic glutamate receptor blockade in the NTS on the hypercapnic ventilatory response in normoxic control (CON) versus chronically hypoxic (CSH) rats. Effects of acute hypercapnia (7% CO2) and MK801 + DNQX on (A) total minute ventilation (graphic file with name phy2-2-e12092-m20.jpgi), (B) breathing frequency (fr), and (C) tidal volume (Vt) of CON and CSH rats before and after microinjection of drugs. Data are mean ± SEM from n =7 CON and 9 CSH rats. Asterisks (*) indicate significant (P < 0.05) difference between CON and CSH values. Daggers (†) indicate significant effect of drug relative to ACSF microinjection.
