Neural Control of Respiration Pharmacology > Neuropsychiatric System > Neuropsychiatric System Neural Control of Respiration Pharmacology > Neuropsychiatric System > Neuropsychiatric System NEURAL CONTROL OF RESPIRATION OVERVIEW Medulla • The medulla is the primary brainstem mediator of respiration. • Via the dorsal respiratory group (DRG), the dorsal (posterior) medulla controls sensory integration. - For its location, think: solitary tract nucleus. • Via the ventral respiratory group (VRG), the ventral (anterior) medulla controls motor output. - For its location, think: nucleus ambiguus. Phrenic nerve • C3, C4, C5 supply the phrenic nerve, which innervate the diaphragm: C3, C4, C5 "keep the diaphragm alive". BRAINSTEM CIRCUITRY Ventral respiratory group (VRG) • Within the medulla, anteriorly, lies the ventral respiratory group (VRG), which lies within the ventrolateral medulla. - It provides innervation for motor output. - It is involved in the activation of both inspiration and expiration. Dorsal respiratory group (DRG) • Within the dorsal medulla (in the solitary tract nucleus), lies the dorsal respiratory group (DRG). - It provides sensory integration. - It receives sensory input related to the inspiration phase of respiration. PERIPHERAL CHEMORECEPTORS Peripheral chemoreceptors act on the dorsal respiratory group 1 / 4 • Peripheral innervation involves the aortic bodies (shown here in the arch of the aorta) and the carotid bodies in the carotid bifurcation. - The carotid and aortic bodies are chemoreceptors. - They respond to levels of arterial oxygen and carbon dioxide levels and blood acidity. Innervation to the brainstem respiratory center • Both cranial nerves 9 and 10 (we treat them jointly for simplicity) pass through the jugular foramen within the skull base across from the brainstem to innervate the dorsal respiratory group. SECONDARY INSPIRATORY MUSCLES Key structures • Anterior face, tongue, pharynx, and larynx. Innervation • Cranial nerves 9, 10, and 12 innervate the secondary inspiratory muscles (again, we treat them jointly for simplicity). VRG innervation of CNs 9 and 10 • The ventral respiratory group acts upon these cranial nerves. PRIMARY INSPIRATORY MUSCLES Key structures • Thoracic cage, diaphragm, and intercostal muscles. Innervation • The ventral respiratory group innervates C3, C4, C5 motor neurons in the anterior horn of the spinal cord gray matter, which supply the phrenic nerve, which innervates the diaphragm (again: C3, C4, C5 "keep the diaphragm alive"). Intercostal nerves • Intercostal nerves innervate the intercostal muscles. DETAILED ANATOMY OF THE DRG & VRG Dorsal respiratory group (DRG) 2 / 4 • The dorsal respiratory group lies within the solitary tract nucleus of cranial nerves 9 and 10. Ventral respiratory group (VRG) Simplification of VRG microanatomy • First, add nucleus ambiguus of CNs 9 and 10. - This will help us continue to recall the important of CNs 9 and 10 and thus the medulla itself in respiratory control. • There are many subnuclei that constitute the ventral respiratory group; we'll only address the Bötzinger nuclei, here. • The Bötzinger complex lies within the superior aspect of the ventral respiratory group (some authors distinguish it from the ventral respiratory group, entirely). • The pre-Bötzinger complex is considered the "respiratory pacemaker." - Notably, it contains mu receptors, which makes it sensitive to opioids. - Thus, we can see one of the ways in which opioids (such as morphine) can depress our drive to breathe. CLINICAL CORRELATION: ONDINE'S CURSE • Ondine's curse is the clinical eponym for the failure of automatic breathing during sleep. - It typically occurs from lower medullary or high cervical spinal cord lesions. - These patients are dependent on a ventilator when they sleep to survive. PONTINE RESPIRATORY CONTROL CENTERS Apneustic center • The apneustic center is a nonspecific region in the posterior lower pons. - It promotes apneusis: a prolonged inspiratory pause. - It comprises diffuse lower pontine nuclei. Pneumotaxic center • The pneumotaxic center (aka the pontine respiratory group). - It prevents apneusis: it promotes regular breathing. - The pneumotaxic center comprises the medial parabrachial nucleus and the Kölliker-fuse nucleus. Functions Whereas these centers where formerly thought to be well-defined and to perform unique functions, now they are understood to be diffuse and their functions are no longer thought to be unique (the pneumotaxic center is not the only 3 / 4 site to prevent apneusis, for instance*). BREATHING PATTERNS We can use breathing patterns in comatose patients to localize the level of the CNS lesion, as follows: Patterns • Cerebral hemispheric lesions cause Cheyne-Stokes respirations. – Illustrate Cheyne-Stokes respirations as periods of hyperpnea (deep breathing) with apneas (cessation of breathing) • Midbrain lesions cause hyperventilation. - Illustrate hyperventilation as rapid, deep breathing. • High pontine lesions cause apneustic breathing. - Illustrate apneustic breathing as periods of long inspiratory pauses before release of air. • Low pontine lesions cause cluster breathing. - Illustrate cluster breathing as irregular clusters of breaths. • Medullary lesions cause ataxic breathing. - Illustrate ataxic breathing as a completely irregular breathing pattern. Limitations • Although these localizations are notoriously unreliable, they still give us a simple heuristic to follow when we examine comatose patients, which is essential.

  • For Pneumograph
    For Pneumograph: Central chemoreceptors are primarily sensitive to changes in the pH in the blood, (resulting from changes in the levels of carbon dioxide) and they are located on the medulla oblongata near to the medullar respiratory groups of the respiratory center (1. Pneumotaxic center - various nuclei of the pons and 2. Apneustic center -nucleus of the pons). The peripheral chemoreceptors that detect changes in the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide are located in the arterial aortic bodies and the carotid bodies. Information from the peripheral chemoreceptors is conveyed along nerves to the respiratory groups of the respiratory center. There are four respiratory groups, two in the medulla and two in the pons. From the respiratory center, the muscles of respiration, in particular the diaphragm, are activated to cause air to move in and out of the lungs. Hyperventilation: When a healthy person takes several deep and fast breaths (hyperventilation), PCO2 in the lungs and blood falls. As a result there is an increase in diffusion of CO2 to the alveolar air from dissolved state in blood. As the conc. of H2CO3 is in equilibrium with that of dissolved CO2 in blood, hyperventilation increases the [HCO3]/ [H2CO3] ratio by falling of CO2 conc. Thus there is a rise of blood pH (greater than pH 7.4). The breathing centre detects this change and stops or reduces stimulation and work of the respiratory muscles (called apnea). (Blood leaving the lungs is normally fully saturated with oxygen, so hyperventilation of normal air cannot increase the amount of oxygen available.) Breath-holding: The person naturally holds their breath until the CO2 level reaches the initially pre- set value.

It controls the sleep-wake cycle and vital functions via the ascending reticular activating system and the autonomic nuclei, respectively. Brainstem dysfunction may lead to sensory and motor deficits, cranial nerve palsies, impairment of consciousness, dysautonomia, and respiratory failure. The brainstem is prone to various primary and secondary insults, resulting in acute or chronic dysfunction. Of particular importance for characterizing brainstem dysfunction and identifying the underlying etiology are a detailed clinical examination, MRI, neurophysiologic tests such as brainstem auditory evoked potentials, and an analysis of the cerebrospinal fluid. Detection of brainstem dysfunction is challenging but of utmost importance in comatose and deeply sedated patients both to guide therapy and to support outcome prediction.

Wijdicks* © 2019 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature and Neurocritical Care Society Abstract We now recognize that the main breathing generator resides principally in the medulla oblongata. Vivisectionists— specifcally, Julien Legallois—discovered “the respiratory center.” Cutting through the brainstem stops respiration but not if the medulla remains intact and the brain is sliced in successive portions. Pierre Flourens localized surgical ablation experiments further identifed a 1-mm area in the medulla, which he called vital knot or node (noeud vital). Detailed characterization had to wait until the 1920s, when Lumsden carried out more specifc transection experi- ments to improve morphological diferentiation of the respiratory center into inspiratory and expiratory divisions.
