Selective accumulation of biotin in arterial chemoreceptors: requirement for carotid body exocytotic dopamine secretion
(2016-12)
Biotin is a water-soluble vitamin required for the function of carboxylases as well asfor the regulation of gene expression. Here, we report that biotin accumulates in unusually largeamounts in cells of arterial chemoreceptors, ...

Gene expression analyses reveal metabolic specifications in acute O-2-sensing chemoreceptor cells
(Wiley, 2017-09)
Acute O2sensing is a fundamental property of cells in the peripheral chemoreceptors,e.g. glomus cells in the carotid body (CB) and chromaffin cells in the adrenal medulla (AM),and is necessary for adaptation to hypoxia. ...

Carotid body chemosensory responses in mice deficient of TASK channels
(2010)
Background K+ channels of the TASK family are believed to participate in sensory transduction by chemoreceptor (glomus) cells of the carotid body (CB). However, studies on the systemic CB-mediated ventilatory response to ...
