Abstract
Commentary: Oxygen regulation of breathing through an olfactory receptor activated by lactate.
Highlights
Carotid body (CB) is the main systemic arterial blood oxygen sensor assuring the homeostatic response to changes in oxygen tissue availability
A commentary on Oxygen regulation of breathing through an olfactory receptor activated by lactate by Chang, A
Chang et al (2015) in their sophisticated paper, have well-documented the discovery of a new acute hypoxia sensor in CB type I cells, an olfactory receptor activated by lactate, Olfr78
