Abstract
Central and peripheral chemoreceptors provide tonic drive to the neuronal network that generates respiratory rhythm. The peripheral chemoreceptor organs (carotid and aortic bodies) are well defined, whereas the identity of the structures in charge of mammalian central chemoreception are still uncertain (Coates et al, 1993).
