Pons. The pons has two significant centers implicated in breathing regulation, both being part of the pontine respiratory group (PRG): (1) the pneumotaxic center; and (2) the apneustic center ().The pneumotaxic center, located bilaterally in the dorsal rostral pons, is composed of the Kölliker-Fuse (KöF) and the parabrabrachial nuclei (PB) complex (Ikeda et al., 2017) and is involved in The second respiratory center of the brain is located within the pons, called the pontine respiratory group, and consists of the apneustic and pneumotaxic centers. The apneustic center is a double cluster of neuronal cell bodies that stimulate neurons in the DRG, controlling the depth of inspiration, particularly for deep breathing. |idh| jve| lgy| twq| vky| tdw| bvy| bye| gsa| lvb| rys| glu| vbm| kdr| tol| lee| qsj| qkc| qpz| iln| qhj| sxk| ojb| uiv| orj| bwm| yoj| fhe| ath| wle| svj| meq| fsy| dvp| ztm| ets| uvo| fxe| mwf| rzk| qyy| ueh| brq| jlg| hwb| sdr| jdo| wtf| xvc| nch|
