Is Carotid Body Physiological O(2) Sensitivity Determined by a Unique Mitochondrial Phenotype?
The mammalian carotid body (CB) is the primary arterial chemoreceptor that responds to acute hypoxia, initiating systemic protective reflex responses that act to maintain O(2) delivery to the brain and vital organs. The CB is unique in that it is stimulated at O(2) levels above those that begin to i...
