Urethane anesthesia depresses activities of thalamocortical neurons and alters its response to nociception in terms of dual firing modes
Anesthetics are often used to characterize the activity of single neurons in-vivo for its advantages such as reduced noise level and convenience in noxious stimulations. Of the anesthetics, urethane had been widely used in some thalamic studies under the assumption that sensory signals are still rel...
