Similarities and differences between natural sleep and urethane anesthesia.

Scientific Reports May 25, 2025 Jurij Brankačk, Yevgenij Yanovsky, Adriano B. L. Tort et al. 6 citations

Slow oscillations dominate the EEG or local field potential (LFP) of mammals during specific periods within natural sleep and anesthesia. Such similarities have led to the use of anesthesia as a model to study sleep and state-dependent changes of consciousness. Previous research has documented the similarities between the activated state of urethane anesthesia and natural REM sleep,...

Cortical high-frequency oscillations (≈ 110 Hz) in cats are state-dependent and enhanced by a subanesthetic dose of ketamine.

Behavioural Brain Research January 5, 2025 Santiago Castro-Zaballa, Joaquín González, Matías Cavelli et al. 4 citations

Ketamine is an NMDA receptor antagonist that has antidepressant and anesthetic properties. At subanesthetic doses, ketamine induces transient psychosis in humans, and is used to model psychosis in experimental animals. In rodents, subanesthetic doses of ketamine increase the power of high-frequency oscillations (HFO, > 100 Hz) in the electroencephalogram (EEG), a frequency band linked to...

5-MeO-DMT induces sleep-like LFP spectral signatures in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex of awake rats.

Scientific Reports May 17, 2024 Annie C. Souza, Bryan C. Souza, Arthur França et al. 7 citations

5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT) is a potent classical psychedelic known to induce changes in locomotion, behaviour, and sleep in rodents. However, there is limited knowledge regarding its acute neurophysiological effects. Local field potentials (LFPs) are commonly used as a proxy for neural activity, but previous studies investigating psychedelics have been hindered by confounding...

EEG Gamma Band Alterations and REM-like Traits Underpin the Acute Effect of the Atypical Psychedelic Ibogaine in the Rat.

ACS Pharmacology & Translational Science April 9, 2021 Joaquín González, Matías Cavelli, Santiago Castro-Zaballa et al. 26 citations

Ibogaine is a psychedelic alkaloid that has attracted large scientific interest because of its antiaddictive properties in observational studies in humans as well as in animal models. Its subjective effect has been described as intense, vivid dream-like experiences occurring while awake; hence, ibogaine is often referred to as an oneirogenic psychedelic. While this unique dream-like profile has...

Gamma band alterations and REM-like traits underpin the acute effect of the atypical psychedelic ibogaine

bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory) June 29, 2020 Joaquín González, Matías Cavelli, Santiago Castro-Zaballa et al. 5 citations preprint

Abstract Ibogaine is a psychedelic alkaloid that has attracted scientific interest because of its important antiaddictive properties evidenced in observational studies in humans, and in models for substance-use-disorders in rodents. Its subjective effect has been described as intense vivid dream-like experiences occurring while awake; hence, ibogaine is often referred to as an oneirogenic...

Ketamine alters oscillatory coupling in the hippocampus

Scientific Reports August 2, 2013 Fábio V. Caixeta, Alianda Maira Cornélio, Robson Scheffer-Teixeira et al. 134 citations

Recent studies show that higher order oscillatory interactions such as cross-frequency coupling are important for brain functions that are impaired in schizophrenia, including perception, attention and memory. Here we investigated the dynamics of oscillatory coupling in the hippocampus of awake rats upon NMDA receptor blockade by ketamine, a pharmacological model of schizophrenia. Ketamine (25,...
