Cardiac, ventilatory and metabolic responses of two ecologically distinct species of fish to waterborne cyanide
… were attributed to stimulation of central and peripheral chemoreceptors by cyanide. Evidence is presented which suggests the initial response in the bullheads was due, at least in part, to gustatory stimulation by the cyanide. Oxygen consumption of the trout remained above pre-exposure levels …

Unstable Ventilatory Control During Sleep After High Spinal Cord Injury: The Contribution Of Chemosensitivity And Hypoventilation
… controls and 2) to determine the response of the peripheral chemoreceptors to brief hyperoxia (60 seconds of >60% FiO2) and hypercapnia (a single breath of elevated CO2). I studied subjects with chronic cervical and high thoracic SCI and matched able-bodied subjects. For the first aim subjects …

Dilution acidosis : the effects of hyperosmolality on acid-base balance and ventilation
… changes to acid-base disturbances at the peripheral chemoreceptors. Since brain intracellular pH as measured by 31P NMR during systemic hyperosmolality showed only a consistent trend towards an alkalosis, then central chemoreception, if based on intracellular pH, is unlikely to be affected …

Activation of 5-HT1A Receptors in the Nucleus Tractus Solitarius Facilitate Ventilatory Responses to Hypoxic Hypercapnia and Promote Sympathetic Recovery Following Hypotensive Hemorrhage
… and sympathetic responses to hemorrhage, and peripheral chemoreceptor stimulation. Thus, we propose that serotonin is released in the NTS during hemorrhage to activate 5-HT<sub>1A</sub> receptors which facilitate chemoreflex responses. We utilized viral-mediated knockdown of the rat …

Sensitivity to chemical stimuli plays a fundamental role in the food preferences. Examples in the evolutionary scale: 1. Role of the walking leg chemoreceptors in the red swamp crayfish Procambarus Clarkii 2. PROP bitter taste sensitivity and its nutritional implications in Humans
… reception of chemical cues occurs by way of peripheral chemoreceptors grouped within sensory hairs and typically located on the cuticle of cephalothoracic appendages. Antennules and pereopods (walking legs), in particular, have been reported to be olfactory organs involved in a number of …
