    Abstract In recent months, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has sent many countries into crisis. Studies have shown that this virus causes worse outcomes and a higher mortality in men than in women. It has been recognized that sex can affect the immune response to a pathogenic agent, as well as the susceptibility for some respiratory diseases. These different responses in males and females may be related to the actions of sex hormones. Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) acts as the receptor for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which causes COVID-19. The expression of ACE2 is influenced by sex hormones; therefore, we discuss in this article that this could be one of the reasons why COVID-19 is more prevalent in men than in women.

    Abstract The brainstem region medullary raphe modulates non-shivering and shivering thermogenesis and cutaneous vasomotion in rodents. Whether the same scenario occurs in the other endothermic group, i.e. birds, is still unknown. Therefore, we hypothesised that the medullary raphe modulates heat gain and loss thermoeffectors in birds. We investigated the effect of glutamatergic and GABAergic inhibitions in this specific region on body temperature (Tb), oxygen consumption (thermogenesis), ventilation (O

    Abstract Orexinergic (OX) neurons in the lateral hypothalamus (LH), perifornical area (PFA) and dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) play a role in the hypercapnic ventilatory response, presumably through direct inputs to central pattern generator sites and/or through interactions with other chemosensitive regions. OX neurons can produce and release orexins, excitatory neuropeptides involved in many functions, including physiological responses to changes in CO

    Abstract New findings: What is the central question of this study? Melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) suppresses the hypercapnic chemoreflex: what is the mechanism by which this effect is produced? What is the main finding and its importance? MCH acting in the lateral hypothalamic area but not in the locus coeruleus in rats, in the light period, attenuates the hypercapnic chemoreflex. The data provide new insight into the role of MCH in the modulation of the hypercapnic ventilatory response.
    Abstract: Melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) is a hypothalamic neuropeptide involved in a broad range of homeostatic functions including regulation of the hypercapnic chemoreflex. We evaluated whether MCH modulates the hypercapnic ventilatory response by acting in the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) and/or in the locus coeruleus (LC). Here, we measured pulmonary ventilation (

    Abstract The pontine A5 noradrenergic group contributes to the maturation of the respiratory system before birth in rats. These neurons are connected to the neural network responsible for respiratory rhythmogenesis. In the present study, we investigated the participation of A5 noradrenergic neurons in neonates (P7-8 and P14-15) in the control of ventilation during hypoxia and hypercapnia in in vivo experiments using conjugated saporin anti-dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DβH-SAP) to specifically ablate noradrenergic neurons. Thus, DβH-SAP (420 ng/μL) or saporin (SAP, control) was injected into the A5 region of neonatal male Wistar rats. Hypoxia reduced respiratory variability in control animals; however, A5 lesion prevented this effect in P7-8 rats. Our data suggest that noradrenergic neurons of the A5 region in neonate rats do not participate in the control of ventilation under baseline and hypercapnic conditions, but exert an inhibitory modulation on breathing variability under hypoxic challenge in early life (P7-8).
