Disrupting synaptic output in dBNST neurons does not significantly alter breathing or chemoreception. A. Schematic showing experimental design for whole-body plethysmography trials. No difference in baseline breathing B. respiratory rate (AAV-GFP: n = 24; AAV-TeNT: n = 16; p = 0.65), C. VE (p = 0.89), or D. VT (p = 0.76) between AAV-GFP and AAV-TeNT injected animals. No difference in E. respiratory rate (p = 0.59) and F. VE (p = 0.49). AAV-TeNT animals had a significant increase in G. VT (p = 0.037) during hypercapnic conditions. No changes in HVR H. respiratory rate (p = 0.12), I. VE (p = 0.16), or J. VT (p = 0.37). *p < 0.05 (VE: minute ventilation; VT: tidal volume).
