Reductions in respiratory-related synaptic inputs to inspiratory motor neurons initiate a form of plasticity that proportionally enhances inspiratory motor output, even in the absence of changing blood gases. This form of plasticity is known as inactivity-induced inspiratory motor facilitation (iMF). iMF triggered by brief, recurrent reductions in respiratory neural activity requires local retinoic acid (RA) synthesis, but receptor subtypes activated by RA are unknown. To test the hypothesis that retinoic acid receptor alpha (R
