Loss of Cervical Sympathetic Chain Input to the Superior Cervical Ganglia Affects the Ventilatory Responses to Hypoxic Challenge in Freely-Moving C57BL6 Mice

Loss of Cervical Sympathetic Chain Input to the Superior Cervical Ganglia Affects the Ventilatory Responses to Hypoxic Challenge in Freely-Moving C57BL6 Mice

The cervical sympathetic chain (CSC) innervates post-ganglionic sympathetic neurons within the ipsilateral superior cervical ganglion (SCG) of all mammalian species studied to date. The post-ganglionic neurons within the SCG project to a wide variety of structures, including the brain (parenchyma an...
