Designer receptors exclusively activated by designer drugs (DREADDs) are chemogenetic tools for remote control of targeted cell populations using chemical actuators that bind to modified receptors. Despite the popularity DREADDs in neuroscience and sleep research, potential effects DREADD actuator clozapine-N-oxide (CNO) on have never been systematically tested. Here, we show intraperitoneal injections commonly used CNO doses (1, 5, 10 mg/kg) alter wild-type male laboratory mice. Using...
