Journal ArticleDOI

Functional and Topological Conditions for Explosive Synchronization Develop in Human Brain Networks with the Onset of Anesthetic-Induced Unconsciousness.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates for the first time that the network conditions for ES, formerly shown in generic networks only, are present in empirically-derived functional brain networks and suggest a potential mechanism for rapid recovery from the lightly-anesthetized state.
Journal ArticleDOI

γ-Aminobutyric Acid–mediated Neurotransmission in the Pontine Reticular Formation Modulates Hypnosis, Immobility, and Breathing during Isoflurane Anesthesia

TL;DR: Decreasing pontine reticular formation GABA levels comprises one mechanism by which isoflurane causes loss of consciousness, altered cortical excitability, muscular hypotonia, and decreased respiratory rate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurophysiological correlates of sevoflurane-induced unconsciousness.

TL;DR: In humans, sevoflurane-induced unconsciousness is not correlated with anteriorization of alpha and related cross-frequency patterns, but rather by a disruption of phase–amplitude coupling in the parietal region and phase–phase relationships across the cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI

GABAergic processes in the mesencephalic tegmentum modulate the occurrence of active (rapid eye movement) sleep in guinea pigs

TL;DR: Data suggest that endogenous GABA acts on GABA(A) receptors within the vlPAG and dMRF to promote AS in the guinea pig.
