A, While oxygen was supplied to urethane-anesthetized rat from a nose cone, the lumbar spinal cord at the level from L1 to L6 was exposed by laminectomy. The surface of the spinal cord was perfused with 95% O2-5% CO2-equilibrated Krebs’s solution(15ml/min) from inlet to outlet glass pipettes at 38 ± 1ĪC (small arrows).
Ba, Representative SG neurons filled with neurobiotin from patch pipette(red) that responded to the RVM-ES in a sagittal section of the spinal cord. Green fluorescence band shows IB4 binding, which indicates the inner layer of lamina II(SG). Bb, The same neuron at a higher magnification. Scale bars, 50 µm.
