Endplate potentials, acetylcholine potentials, and electrotonic potentials were recorded from the motor endplates of isolated diaphragms from acute late septic and nonseptic rats.
The team at UCL also grew organoids from fetuses with congenital diaphragmatic hernia, a birth defect that compresses the lungs and prevents them from properly developing as a child grows in the womb.
And so we have tremendous power because we have the power to choose how long our breath is, how far do we drop our diaphragm down when we take our next breath.
