Propofol-induced anesthesia involves the direct inhibition of glutamatergic neurons in the lateral hypothalamus
Propofol is the most widely used intravenous general anesthetic; however, the neuronal circuits that mediate its anesthetic effects are still poorly understood. Glutamatergic neurons in the lateral hypothalamus have been reported to be involved in maintenance of arousal and consciousness. Using Vglu...
