New findings•What is the central question of this study?Measurement of ventilation (as well as simultaneous recording of ventilation and pulmonary gas exchange) in exercising mice has not been studied thoroughly. We evaluated ventilation in association with metabolic changes during constant‐load exercise in mice and examined the role of D1receptors in addition to the D2receptors previously studied. This reliable method can be used in gene‐manipulated mice.•What is the main finding and its importance?We showed that the D1receptors participate in resting ventilation and exercise hyperpnoea in parallel with metabolic changes during the steady state in mice. The metabolic control of D1receptors was important for maintenance of the steady state.Previously, we undertook simultaneous recording of ventilation and pulmonary gas exchange in mice and revealed that dopamine D2receptors participate in exercise hyperpnoea via behavioural control of ventilation with unchanged pulmonary gas exchange. Here, we examined the hypothesis that D1receptors also contribute to exercise hyperpnoea using a D1receptor antagonist (SCH 23390; SCH) that crosses the blood–brain barrier, with the same recording technique and protocol as in the previous study. The respiratory responses of mice injected with saline or SCH (50 μg (kg body weight)−1,i.p.) were compared during constant‐load exercise at 6 m min−1. Each mouse was set in an airtight treadmill chamber equipped with a differential pressure transducer and open‐circuit system with a mass spectrometer. At rest, SCH‐injected mice had significantly reduced respiratory frequency, minute ventilation and pulmonary gas exchange compared with saline‐injected mice. Ventilation during hyperoxic gas inhalation and hypercapnic ventilatory responses between groups were similar. Abrupt increases and sequential declines to the steady‐state level were produced by treadmill exercise in both groups of mice. Treatment with SCH lowered the increased levels of respiratory frequency, tidal volume and minute ventilation during the steady state, as well as reducing the O2uptake, CO2output and body temperature throughout treadmill exercise. These data suggest that D1receptors contribute to a resting ventilation level and exercise hyperpnoea during the steady state in parallel with metabolic changes. Notably, the metabolic control of D1receptors was important for maintenance of the steady state, and D1receptors in hypothalamic nuclei could be involved in this modulation.
