Abstract:
:Central pattern generators located in the brainstem regulate ventilatory behaviors in vertebrates. The development of the isolated brainstem preparation has allowed these neural networks to be characterized in a number of aquatic species. The aim of this study was to explore the architecture of the respiratory rhythm-generating site in the goldfish (Carassius auratus) and to determine the utility of a newly developed isolated brainstem preparation, the Sheep Dip. Here we provide evidence for a distributed organization of respiratory rhythm generating neurons along the rostrocaudal axis of the goldfish brainstem and outline the advantages of the Sheep Dip as a tool used to survey neural networks.
