TLDR
The electron microscopic observation of the chemoreceptor of theCarotid labyrinth supports the view that the adrenergic transmission exists in the carotid chemosensory apparatus of the toad.

Central Control of the Cardiovascular and Respiratory Systems and Their Interactions in Vertebrates

TL;DR: This review explores the fundamental neuranatomical and functional bases for integration of the respiratory and cardiovascular systems in vertebrates and traces their evolution through the vertebrate groups, from primarily water-breathing fish and larval amphibians to facultative air-Breathers such as lungfish and some adult amphibians and finally obligate air-b breathehers among the reptiles, birds, and mammals.

Peripheral Receptors Affecting Breathing and Cardiovascular Function in Non-Mammalian Vertebrates

TL;DR: The role of peripheral receptors in controlling cardiovascular and respiratory functions, under steady state conditions in non-mammalian vertebrates, is not well defined and it may be that they are only modulators of circulatory and respiratory patterns arising from hormonal or humoral effects on the central nervous system.

Evolution of cardiovascular baroreceptor control

TL;DR: During animal evolution the circulatory system has shown a progressive modification in structure, function and short‐term control.

Comparative Cytological Studies of the Carotid Body

TL;DR: It was concluded that the absence of chromaffin reaction in the carotid body did not always mean the non-existence of monoamines in the cells, but it may imply the presence of small amounts of them.

Functional characteristics of arterial chemoreceptors in an amphibian (Bufo marinus).

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the MCDF responds to the range of PaO2 and PaCO2 values encountered in vivo, suggesting that arterial chemoreceptors may participate in ventilatory control in toads.
