Fluctuations in the discharge of carotid chemoreceptors cannot be accounted for by a simple proportional relationship to Pa, CO2, as they contain a large rate of change component.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Carotid chemoreceptor discharge shows prominent rate-of-change sensitivity to CO2 in this animal model; leaves open translation to human ventilatory control.
Cross et al. (1986) studied this question.
