Abstract in Portuguese
Os neurônios do grupamento catecolaminérgico C1, localizados na porção ventrolateral do bulbo, são classicamente conhecidos por seu envolvimento no controle cardiovascular. O modelo atual propõe que os neurônios C1 são recrutados em situações que ofereçam risco de vida aos indivíduos, desencadeando respostas generalizadas e estereotipadas em defesa da homeostase. Tais respostas envolvem ajustes cardiovasculares, imunológicos, neuroendócrinos, metabólicos, termorregulatórios e respiratórios. Ferramentas anatômicas e funcionais foram utilizadas para investigar se os neurônios C1 contribuem para os ajustes respiratórios induzidos pela hipóxia e pela hipercpania. Os resultados mostram que os neurônios C1 contribuem para a aumento da ventilação induzido pela hipóxia, mas não pela hiperpania, via aumento da frequência da respiratória. Além disso, demonstramos que o aumento da frequência respiratória promovido pela ativação do grupamento C1 depende da ativação de receptores glutamatérgicos, mas não adrenérgicos, localizados na região do complexo pré-Bötzinger.

Abstract in English
The catecholaminergic C1 neurons, located in the rostral ventrolateral portion of the medulla, are classically known by their involvement in the cardiovascular control. Recent models suggest that C1 neurons are recruited in situations of life risk, triggering generalized and stereotyped responses to homeostasis. Such responses involve cardiovascular, immunologic, neuroendocrine, metabolic, thermoregulatory and respiratory adjustments. Thus, anatomic and functional tools were used to assess the contribution of C1 neurons to the respiratory adjustments induced by hypoxia and hypercapnia. The results show that these neurons contribute to the increase of ventilation induced by hypoxia, but not by hypercapnia, via an increase of the breathing frequency. Moreover, we demonstrated that increase of breathing frequency promoted by the activation of C1 neurons depend on the activation of glutamatergic receptors, but not adrenergic, located in the pre-Bötzinge complex.
