The logic behind neural control of breathing pattern

Abstract: The respiratory rhythm generator is spectacular in its ability to support a wide range of activities and adapt to changing environmental conditions, yet its operating mechanisms remain elusive. We show how selective control of inspiration and expiration times can be achieved in a new representation of the neural system (called a Boolean network). The new framework enables us to predict the behavior of neural networks based on properties of neurons, not their values. Hence, it reveals the logic behind the neura… Show more

“…The breathing pattern depends on chemoreceptor activity 22 , 47 , 48 and HF patients show hyperactivation of both central and peripheral chemoreceptors 49 . This is exemplified by HF patients with severe disease in whom strong chemoreceptor activation (due to the disease severity and the marked sympathetic activation) is associated with periodic breathing 50 .…”

“…This, as previously observed, could be due to a reduced ability to modulate the autonomic drive to the blood vessels because of an increased sympathetic tone and because of a less compliant vascular system. The breathing pattern depends on chemoreceptor activity 22,47,48 and HF patients show hyperactivation of both central and peripheral chemoreceptors 49 . This is exemplified by HF patients with severe disease in whom strong chemoreceptor activation (due to the disease severity and the marked sympathetic activation) is associated with periodic breathing 50 .…”

“…This finding could help in modelling the cardiorespiratory system, as the existing work (Ben‐Tal et al . 2012, 2014, 2019; Ben‐Tal & Tawhai, 2013; Molkov et al . 2014) assumed periodic breathing was maladaptive rather than beneficial.…”

“…The control of breathing muscles depends on various structures of the nervous system. Recent research (Del Negro et al 2018;Ben-Tal et al 2019) suggests that breathing control is a complex and adaptive process, the neural substrates of which are still not fully understood. The Breathing Central Pattern Generator (CPG) is located in the brain stem, but it has numerous connections with different cortical and subcortical areas of the brain.…”
