Abstract: Hypoglossal motor neurons (HMNs) innervate tongue muscles and play key roles in a variety of physiological functions, including swallowing, mastication, suckling, vocalization, and respiration. Dysfunction of HMNs is associated with several diseases, such as obstructive… read more here.

Abstract: DiGeorge/22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome (22q11DS) is a common genetic microdeletion syndrome that underlies several neurodevelopmental disorders including autism, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, and schizophrenia. In addition to cognitive impairments, those with 22q11DS have disrupted feeding and swallowing… read more here.

Abstract: Neuromodulator interdependence posits that changes in one or more neuromodulators are compensated by changes in other modulators to maintain stability in the respiratory control network. Herein, we studied compensatory neuromodulation in the hypoglossal motor nucleus… read more here.

Abstract: Regulation of GABAergic signaling through nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) activation is critical for neuronal development. Here, we test the hypothesis that chronic, episodic developmental nicotine exposure (eDNE) disrupts GABAergic signaling, leading to dysfunction of hypoglossal… read more here.
