They found that neurons in the core project to the amygdala, an area of the brain that processes fear and the emotional experience of pain. Neurons in the shell project to the pre-B\u00f6tzinger complex, a region that generates breathing rhythm. The core and shell neurons influence each other according to inputs from these areas, making us breathe faster when we experience pain or anxiety.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are the first group to demonstrate how the lateral parabrachial nucleus coordinates breathing and pain,\u201d says the paper\u2019s senior author, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/es\/scientist\/sung-han\/\">Sung Han<\/a>, assistant professor in Salk\u2019s Clayton Foundation Laboratories for Peptide Biology. \u201cBy understanding the circuits in this brain region, we may be able to tease apart breathing regulation and pain regulation to develop a medication that inhibits feelings of pain without repressing breathing, like OIRD.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In OIRD, opioids repress breathing as well as pain; it is the major cause of death from opioids. In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/es\/news-release\/researchers-identify-neurons-involved-in-overdose-deaths\/\">previous work<\/a>, Han\u2019s lab showed that opiates like morphine repress breathing by triggering specific receptors, called mu opioid receptors (MOR), leading to the inhibition of neurons that express them. They also showed that reactivating the cells that express MOR can reverse OIRD. The current work suggests additional approaches for preventing OIRD, possibly by inhibiting neurons in the region\u2019s core (blunting fear\/anxiety) while exciting similar neurons in the shell (supporting breathing).<\/p>\n<p>To show how these neurons coordinate breathing with pain and emotions, the researchers first used light and chemical agents to prove that manipulating the MOR-expressing neurons in the lateral parabrachial nucleus alters breathing rate in mice. They then used fluorescent tracers to map the inputs and outputs to the MOR-expressing neurons. Their results indicated that neurons clustered in the core of the region project to the central amygdala, while neurons clustered in the surrounding shell project to the pre-B\u00f6tzinger complex. Electrophysiological recordings of one population while stimulating the other population revealed that some of those subpopulations are reciprocally connected, with an excitatory network between them. Via this network, signals of fear and pain were coordinated with breathing rhythms.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_33011\"  class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"img-responsive wp-image-33011 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Sung Han and Shijia Liu \" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr-147x98.jpg 147w, https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr-458x305.jpg 458w, https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr-553x369.jpg 553w, https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr-767x511.jpg 767w, https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr-945x630.jpg 945w, https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr-1250x833.jpg 1250w, https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sung Han and Shijia Liu<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Han-Liu-PR-hr.jpg\">Haga clic aqu\u00ed<\/a> para obtener una imagen en alta resoluci\u00f3n.<br \/>Cr\u00e9dito: Instituto Salk<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWe have found very intricate circuits involving upstream and downstream input to these neurons.
