6 pathways for respiratory regulation①voluntary control: bypass respiratory centers and send signals directly to C3-5
②control via chemoreceptor: H+ stimulates CCR →pneumotaxic center(PC)→DRG→inspiration
③control via stretch receptor(=Hering Breuer reflex): stretch receptor send signals to pneumotaxic center→ decrease signals to DRG→ transition from inspiration to expiration
④,⑤control via subepithelial receptors and Juxta capillary receptors: (same as ③)
⑥control via muscle proprioceptors: signal are sent via dorsal cord to DRG respiratory HirotoShishido
