Ethanol Extract of the Flower Chrysanthemum morifolium Augments Pentobarbital-Induced Sleep Behaviors: Involvement of Cl Channel Activation

Figure 1

Effects of EFC on onset and duration of sleep in pentobarbital-treated mice. Mice were food-deprived for 24 h before the experiment. Pentobarbital (40 mg/kg, i.p.) was administered to mice following administration of muscimol or EFC. The sleep time (a) and sleep latency (b) were recorded. Each column represents the mean with S.E.M. The significance of the effects of the compounds was assessed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). ** , *** , compared to control.
