ventral-lateral region of the lower <a href="/wiki/Medulla_oblongata" title="Medulla oblongata">medulla oblongata</a> (i.e., lower <a href="/wiki/Brainstem" title="Brainstem">brainstem</a>). The preBötC is part of the <a href="/wiki/Ventral_respiratory_group" class="mw-redirect" title="Ventral respiratory group">ventral respiratory group</a> of respiratory related <a href="/wiki/Interneuron" title="Interneuron">interneurons</a>. Its foremost function is to generate the inspiratory breathing rhythm in mammals. In addition, the preBötC is widely and paucisynaptically connected to higher brain centers that regulate arousal and excitability more generally such that respiratory brain function is intimately connected with many other rhythmic and cognitive functions of the brain and central nervous system. Further, the preBötC receives mechanical sensory information from the airways that encode lung volume as well as pH, oxygen, and carbon dioxide content of circulating blood and the cerebrospinal fluid. </p><p>The preBötC is approximately colocated with the hypoglossal (XII) cranial motor nucleus as well as the ‘loop’ portion of the inferior olive in the anterior-posterior axis. The caudal border of the preBötC is slightly caudal to the <a href="/wiki/Obex" title="Obex">obex</a>, where the brainstem merges with the cervical spinal cord. </p> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1257001546">.mw-parser-output .infobox-subbox{padding:0;border:none;margin:-3px;width:auto;min-width:100%;font-size:100%;clear:none;float:none;background-color:transparent}.mw-parser-output .infobox-3cols-child{margin:auto}.mw-parser-output .infobox .navbar{font-size:100%}@media screen{html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .infobox-full-data:not(.notheme)>div:not(.notheme)[style]{background:#1f1f23!important;color:#f8f9fa}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .infobox-full-data:not(.notheme) div:not(.notheme){background:#1f1f23!important;color:#f8f9fa}}@media(min-width:640px){body.skin--responsive .mw-parser-output .infobox-table{display:table!important}body.skin--responsive .mw-parser-output .infobox-table>caption{display:table-caption!important}body.skin--responsive .mw-parser-output .infobox-table>tbody{display:table-row-group}body.skin--responsive .mw-parser-output .infobox-table tr{display:table-row!important}body.skin--responsive .mw-parser-output .infobox-table th,body.skin--responsive .mw-parser-output .infobox-table td{padding-left:inherit;padding-right:inherit}}</style><table class="infobox"><tbody><tr><th colspan="2" class="infobox-above" style="background-color:lemonchiffon">PreBötzinger complex</th></tr><tr><th colspan="2" class="infobox-header" style="background-color: #efefef">Details</th></tr><tr><th scope="row" class="infobox-label" style="padding-right:0.25em"><a href="/wiki/Organ_system" title="Organ system">System</a></th><td class="infobox-data"><a href="/wiki/Respiratory_system" title="Respiratory system">Respiratory system</a></td></tr><tr><th scope="row" class="infobox-label" style="padding-right:0.25em">Location</th><td class="infobox-data">brainstem</td></tr><tr><th scope="row" class="infobox-label" style="padding-right:0.25em">Function</th><td class="infobox-data">generation of respiratory rhythm</td></tr><tr><th colspan="2" class="infobox-header" style="background-color: #efefef">Identifiers</th></tr><tr><th scope="row" class="infobox-label" style="padding-right:0.25em"><a href="/wiki/NeuroLex" title="NeuroLex">NeuroLex</a> ID</th><td class="infobox-data"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://uri.neuinfo.org/nif/nifstd/nlx_152600">nlx_152600</a></td></tr><tr><td colspan="2" class="infobox-below"><a href="/wiki/Anatomical_terms_of_neuroanatomy" title="Anatomical terms of neuroanatomy">Anatomical terms of neuroanatomy</a><div style="text-align: right;"><small class="noprint">&#91;<a href="https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q11741973" class="extiw" title="d:Q11741973">edit on Wikidata</a>]</small></div></td></tr></tbody></table> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Discovery">Discovery</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Pre-B%C3%B6tzinger_complex&amp;action=edit&amp;section=1" title="Edit section: Discovery"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The initial description of the preBötC was widely disseminated in a 1991 paper in <i>Science</i>,<sup id="cite_ref-pmid1683005_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-pmid1683005-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> but its discovery predates that paper by one year.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The team was led by Jack L.

The preBötC represented the portion of the ventral-lateral lower brainstem that was necessary and sufficient to generate inspiratory related rhythm and motor output <i>in vitro</i>. Surprisingly, if microsections were applied from the anterior and posterior regions of the neuraxis simultaneously, a transverse section of thickness ~500&#160;μm – which retained the preBötC and XII motoneurons – generated a rhythm and motor pattern that was almost identical to the rhythm and pattern in the full brainstem-spinal cord preparation. Perturbations that elevated excitability in preBötC sped up respiratory rhythm, whereas perturbations that depressed its excitability slowed the rhythm down. The authors concluded that these preBötC-retaining slice preparations preserved the core network generating inspiratory rhythm as well as premotor and motor neurons that define a minimal breathing-related circuit suitable for studies under controlled conditions <i>in vitro</i>. <i>Breathing slices</i> became a widely exploited preparation for such studies that continue to be used by laboratories worldwide to the present day.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Anatomic_definition_of_the_preBötC"><span id="Anatomic_definition_of_the_preB.C3.B6tC"></span>Anatomic definition of the preBötC</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Pre-B%C3%B6tzinger_complex&amp;action=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section: Anatomic definition of the preBötC"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Anatomical observations advanced understanding of the preBötC by providing specific markers expressed by its constituent neurons, which helped understand its approximate borders.

Whether awake or anesthetized, activation of those potassium channel-linked receptors in SST-expressing neurons of the preBötC reduced breathing movements, both their amplitude and frequency, and ultimately caused apnea, i.e., a lack of breathing.

The neurons that comprise the preBötC express NK1Rs, μORs, SST2a receptors, and SST. Each of these markers holds functional significance for modulation of preBötC rhythmicity, and their expression delineates the borders of the preBötC. SP accelerated inspiratory rhythms measured <i>in vitro</i> and ablation of NK1R-expressing preBötC neurons caused severe pathologies of breathing that were ultimately fatal. The μORs also map the preBötC and opioid drugs depress breathing rhythms, which is further evidence of the preeminent rhythmogenic role of the preBötC. SST is a peptide transmitter rather than a receptor, but its expression also maps the preBötC.
