THERE is little information on GABA B receptor-mediated effects on orofacial motoneurons. We recorded the inspiratory activity from both hypoglossal (XII) nerves in urethane-anesthetized, paralyzed, vagotomized and artificially ventilated rats. A GABA B receptor agonist, baclofen, or antagonist, CGP-35348, was microinjected into one XII nucleus. Baclofen rapidly reduced the XII nerve activity in a dose-dependent manner by over 50%. The antagonist caused a delayed suppression of activity by 40%. We conclude that:(1) GABA B receptors within the XII nucleus may suppress the activity of inspiratory XII motoneurons, but they are not tonically active under the conditions of our experiment;(2) there is a net endogenous excitatory effect in XII motoneurons that is mediated by GABA B receptors located in the reticular formation surrounding the XII nucleus.
