## Background: The caudal ventrolateral medulla (cvlm), an area having cardiovascular and respiratory functions, contains neurons that project to the thoracic spinal cord. it has been presumed, although never demonstrated, that the cvlm thoracic projections terminate on intercostal and sympathetic
Sympathetic nerve activity often fluctuates with the respiratory cycle, but the central neurons that impose this respiratory modulation have not been conclusively identified. In the present study, we used intracellular recording and dye-filling to identify expiratory neurons in the BΓΆtzinger complex
