Hypercapnia and hypoxia produce arousal in mammals by activating central (pH-sensitive) and peripheral (primarily O\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    -sensitive) chemoreceptors. The relevant chemoreceptors and the neuronal circuits responsible for arousal are largely unknown. Here we examined the contribution of two lower brainstem nuclei that could be implicated in CO\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    and hypoxia-induced arousal: the retrotrapezoid nucleus (RTN), a CO\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    -responsive nucleus, which mediates the central respiratory chemoreflex; and the C1 neurons, which are hypoxia activated and produce arousal and blood pressure increases when directly stimulated. Additionally, we assessed the contribution of the carotid bodies (CBs), the main peripheral chemoreceptors in mammals, to hypoxia and CO\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    -induced arousal. In unanesthetized male rats, we tested whether ablation of the RTN, CBs, or C1 neurons affects arousal from sleep and respiratory responses to hypercapnia or hypoxia. The sleep\u2013wake pattern was monitored by EEG and neck EMG recordings and breathing by whole-body plethysmography. The latency to arousal in response to hypoxia or hypercapnia was determined along with changes in ventilation coincident with the arousal. RTN lesions impaired CO\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    -induced arousal but had no effect on hypoxia-induced arousal. CB ablation impaired arousal to hypoxia and, to a lesser extent, hypercapnia. C1 neuron ablation had no effect on arousal. Thus, the RTN contributes to CO\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    -induced arousal, whereas the CBs contribute to both hypoxia and CO\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    -induced arousal. Asphyxia-induced arousal likely requires the combined activation of RTN, CBs and other central chemoreceptors.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT<\/jats:bold>\n                    Hypercapnia and hypoxia during sleep elicit arousal, which facilitates airway clearing in the case of obstruction and reinstates normal breathing in the case of hypoventilation or apnea. Arousal can also be detrimental to health by interrupting sleep. We sought to clarify how CO\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    and hypoxia cause arousal. We show that the retrotrapezoid nucleus, a brainstem nucleus that mediates the effect of brain acidification on breathing, also contributes to arousal elicited by CO\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    but not hypoxia. We also show that the carotid bodies contribute predominantly to hypoxia-induced arousal. Lesions of the retrotrapezoid nucleus or carotid bodies attenuate, but do not eliminate, arousal to CO\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    or hypoxia; therefore, we conclude that these structures are not the sole trigger of CO\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    or hypoxia-induced arousal.\n
