Abstract
The great majority of thin-fiber muscular afférents are of the polymodal receptor type, signaling nociceptive information. Arterial injection of various algesic substances into the gastrocnemius muscle of anesthetized, spontaneously ventilated dogs, causes an increase in minute respiratory volume similar to increases observed in discharge rates of muscular polymodal receptors in response to the same stimulus.2 Such findings suggest an involvement of the muscular polymodal receptors in the respiratory response.
