Sexual dimorphisms in phrenic long-term facilitation following severe acute intermittent hypoxia.

Rigorous pre-clinical research in male rodents defined the cellular mechanisms of respiratory neuroplasticity following brief exposures to hypoxia (acute, intermittent hypoxia; AIH). AIH elicits phrenic long-term facilitation (pLTF), a progressive in…
