In the future this slice preparation will enable us to further obtain systems and cellular data from functionally identified respiratory neurons. Ib afferents from ankle extensor muscles in spinal cats. Functionally intact in vitro preparation generating respiratory activity in neonatal and mature mammals. Postnatal changes in the mammalian respiratory network as revealed by the transverse brainstem slice preparation of mice. The hypoxic response of neurones within the in vitro mammalian respiratory network.
Creatine protects the central respiratory network of mammals under anoxic conditions.
