We
tested the hypothesis that unanesthetized rats exhibit ventilatory
long-term facilitation (LTF) after intermittent, but not continuous,
hypoxia. Minute ventilation (
E) and carbon dioxide production (
CO2) were measured in
unanesthetized, unrestrained male Sprague-Dawley rats via barometric
plethysmography before, during, and after exposure to continuous or
intermittent hypoxia. Hypoxia was either isocapnic [inspired
O2 fraction (FIO2) = 0.08-0.09 and inspired CO2 fraction
(FICO2) = 0.04] or poikilocapnic
(FIO2 = 0.11 and
FICO2 = 0.00). Sixty minutes after
intermittent hypoxia,
E or
E/
CO2 was
significantly greater than baseline in both isocapnic and poikilocapnic
conditions. In contrast, 60 min after continuous hypoxia,
E and
E/
CO2 were not
significantly different from baseline values. These data demonstrate
ventilatory LTF after intermittent hypoxia in unanesthetized rats.
Ventilatory LTF appeared similar in its magnitude (after accounting for
CO2 feedback), time course, and dependence on intermittent
hypoxia to phrenic LTF previously observed in anesthetized,
vagotomized, paralyzed rats.
