[Changes in gas composition of expired air during electric stimulation of the ventral medulla oblongata].
The experiments on urethane-anesthetized cats with the electrically stimulated ventral brain stem revealed that caudal ventral medulla at the depth of 1500 microns possesses structures whose electrical activation increases the level of carbon dioxide in arterial blood and in the end portion of expirate, on the one hand, and decreases the oxygen content in expirate and arterial blood, on the other hand.
