Single unit recordings in the nuclei raphe dorsalis and magnus during the sleep-waking cycle of semi-chronic prepared cats.

abstract：:Intracellular recordings were performed in a midpontine slice preparation of the rat brain containing the mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus (MTN). In spite of the previous demonstration of an adenosine deaminase-containing plexus terminating on this nucleus, adenosine, adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP), alpha,beta-methyl...
