We reasoned that, if the lung inflation reflex contributes importantly to apnea-induced sympathetic activation, such activation would be attenuated in bilateral lung transplant recipients (LTX). We measured muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA; intraneural electrodes), heart rate, mean arterial pressure, tidal volume, end-tidal Pco2, and arterial oxygen saturation in seven LTX and seven healthy control subjects (Con) before, during, and after 20-s end-expiratory breath holds. Our evidence for denervation in LTX was1) greatly attenuated respiratory sinus arrhythmia and2) absence of cough reflex below the level of the carina. During apnea, the temporal pattern and the peak increase in MSNA were virtually identical in LTX and Con (347 ± 99 and 359 ± 46% of baseline, respectively;P> 0.05). In contrast, the amount of MSNA present in the first 5 s after resumption of breathing was greater in LTX vs. Con (101 ± 4 vs. 38 ± 7% of baseline, respectively;P< 0.05). There were no between-group differences in apnea-induced hypoxemia or hypercapnia, hemodynamic, or ventilatory responses. Thus cessation of the rhythmic sympathoinhibitory feedback that normally accompanies eupneic breathing does not contribute importantly to sympathetic excitation during apnea. In contrast, vagal afferent input elicited by hyperventilation-induced lung stretch plays an important role in the profound, rapid sympathetic inhibition that occurs after resumption of breathing after apnea.
