lüll Sex, hormones, and stress: how they impact development and function of the carotid bodies and related reflexes Joseph V; Behan M; Kinkead RRespir Physiol Neurobiol 2013[Jan]; 185 (1): 75-86Progesterone and corticosterone are key modulators of the respiratory control system. While progesterone is widely recognized as an important respiratory stimulant in adult and newborn animals, much remains to be described regarding the underlying mechanisms. We review the potential implication of nuclear and membrane progesterone receptors in adults and in newborns. This raises intriguing questions regarding the contribution of progesterone as a protective factor against some respiratory control disorders during early life. We then discuss our current understanding of the central integration of stressful stimuli and the responses they elicit. The fact that this system interacts with the respiratory control system, either because both share some common neural pathways in the brainstem and hypothalamus, or because corticosterone directly modulates the function of the respiratory control network, is a fascinating field of research that has emerged over the past few years. Finally, we review the short- and long-term consequences of disruption of stress circuitry during postnatal development on these systems.|*Sex Factors[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Carotid Body/*growth & development/*physiology[MESH]|Hormones/*physiology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Respiratory Physiological Phenomena[MESH]|Respiratory System/growth & development[MESH]|Stress, Physiological/*physiology[MESH] |
