All parameters were determined by whole-cell slice patch-clamp recordings from orexin neurons with the exception of the number of orexin-ir neurons and spontaneous firing frequency. The number of orexin-ir neurons was counted in every fourth coronal brain section (40 μm) throughout the entire brain. The spontaneous firing frequency was determined by loose cell-attached recordings.
