Abstract
We tested the influence of urethane, chloral hydrate and a mixture of ketamine/xylazine on Fos protein expression in autonomic brain regions related to blood pressure. We conclude that ketamine/xylazine is a su itable anesthetic to be used in studies looking at c-fos expression in neural circuits serving cardiovascular regulation. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.
