δGABAAR regulate diaphragm muscle activity during active wakefulness but not in quiet wakefulness and sleep. In freely behaving adult mice, diaphragm rhythmic activity (numbers of activations per minute) was increased in Gabrd −/− compared to wild-type mice (a–c) in active wakefulness (AW), but not in quiet wakefulness (QW), non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep or rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. There was no differences in diaphragm amplitude between wild-type and Gabrd −/− mice at each states (d). Data are indicated as mean ± SEM. *Indicates mean data significantly different with P < 0.05. Dia, diaphragm muscle. Neck, neck muscle. EEG, electroencephalography.
