PMID: 39263625 Free PMC article. Review.
The article summarizes roles for the amygdala, which is in control of respiration, coughing, swallowing, airway smooth muscle contraction and mucus secretion. They also emphasize the need to understand how the amygdala regulates these functions. They also go over literature that suggest that amygdala dysfunction may contribute to respiratory dysfunction.
