Comparative distribution of the hypothalamic neurons activated during wakefulness and paradoxical (REM) sleep using male TRAP2-red mice: contribution of orexin, MCH, Lhx6, and a new marker Meis2
Our study identifies new neuronal populations activated during PSR in AHA, ZI and tuberal nucleus. We further provide evidence that Meis2 is expressed in novel populations of neurons activated during PSR. In summary, our results using male TRAP2-red mice characterize the cell populations activated during Wakefulness and PSR, opening experimental paths for determining their function regarding vigilance states.
