The discharges of medullary inspiratory neurons were recorded in newborn pigs. They were classified by discharge pattern; response to lung inflation; synaptic relation to phrenic motoneurons. Our results showed: these neurons have similar discharge patterns and responses to lung inflation as adult cats; most neurons do not project to phrenic motoneurons. It is suggested that our sampled population of neurons is involved in integrating pulmonary afferent inputs.
在新生猪中记录了延髓吸气神经元的放电情况。根据放电模式、对肺扩张的反应以及与膈运动神经元的突触关系对它们进行了分类。我们的结果表明：这些神经元具有与成年猫相似的放电模式和对肺扩张的反应；大多数神经元不投射到膈运动神经元。提示我们所采样的神经元群体参与整合肺传入输入。
