Vagal pulmonary afferents and central respiratory effects of 5-HT in newborn rats.

In decerebrate newborn rats, serotonin (5-HT) is a respiratory depressant via activation of 5-HT2 receptors, whereas it evokes respiratory stimulant effects when applied to the isolated brainstem obtained from the newborn rat. This discrepancy could be due to deafferentation in the in vitro preparation. The aim of our study was to analyse the role of vagal afferents in the modulation of central respiratory effects of 5-HT.
