摘要
We review recent evidence indicating that serotonin-dependent plasticity in respiratory control is influenced by age and gender. Specifically, respiratory long-term-facilitation following intermittent hypoxia decreases with age in male rats, but increases in female rats. We speculate about a possible relationship between age and gender effects oil serotonin-dependent plasticity in upper airway motoneuron pools and the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea.
