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 their advantages such as reduction of noise level and convenience in noxious stimulations. Urethane has been a widely used anesthetic in thalamic studies under the assumption that sensory signals are still relayed...
