Identification and characterization of a sleep-active cell group in the rostral medullary brainstem.

Anaclet C, Lin JS, Vetrivelan R, Krenzer M, Vong L, Fuller PM, Lu J (2012) Identification and characterization of a sleep-active cell group in the rostral medullary brainstem. J Neurosci 32(50):17970-17976. doi: 10.1523/JNEUROSCI.0620-12.2012

Summary: The authors attempt to locate and identify specific neuronal populations that promote sleep. One method utilized was 130-330 pg injections of orexin-SAP (Cat. #IT-20) into the parafacial zone. These results establish the parafacial zone as a delimited node of sleep-active neurons.
