Effects of acute inhibition of C1 neurons on the autonomic, cardiovascular and respiratory responses to peripheral chemoreflex activation of in situ preparations of control rats. Raw and integrated (∫) recordings of PN, AbN, tSN activities, and PP and HR of one in situ preparation of a control rat, transduced with PRSx8-AlstR-GFP-LVV into the C1 region, illustrating the respiratory, sympathetic, pressure and bradycardic responses elicited by the activation of peripheral chemoreceptors with intra-arterial injection of KCN (0.05%, 50 μl) before (A) and after (B) arterial perfusion of Alst. (C) The percentage of average magnitude of the tSN reflex responses during I, expiration (E) and AbN (D) responses to peripheral chemoreflex activation in in situ preparations of control rats transduced with PRSx8-AlstR-GFP-LVV into the C1 region.
