Microinjection of kynurenic acid in the rostral nucleus of the tractus solitarius disrupts spatiotemporal aspects of mechanically induced tracheobronchial cough
2017
The nucleus of the solitary tract contains significant neuronal structures responsible for control of 1) cough excitability, 2) motor drive during cough, 3) cough phase timing, and 4) cough rhythmicity. Significant elimination of neurons in the solitary tract nucleus results in cough apraxia (incomplete and/or disordered cough pattern). The mechanism of the cough impairment is different from that for the concomitant changes in breathing.
