Extended Data Fig. 7

a, Construction strategy of Gabra1 vagal conditional knockout mice. b, Representative GABRA1 fluorescent staining and quantification in DMV of cKO and flox control mice (n = 4 per group). c, Representative whole cell patch-clamp recordings from a DMV neuron of control mouse (left), and a DMV neuron from cKO mouse (right). d-e, Average AP frequency (d), and mean membrane potential (e) of recorded DMV neurons from flox (n = 29) and cKO mice (n = 39). f, AP frequency and percentage of DMV neurons from flox (n = 20) and cKO (n = 21) mice showing puerarin-associated inhibition or non-inhibition. g, The body weight of flox and cKO mice before puerarin and vehicle injection (n = 8 per group). h, The body weight of WGA-con and WGA-4i before CNO application (n = 10 per group). Scale bar, 100 μm (b). Data were analyzed using two-tailed Student’s t test (b and h) and two-tailed Mann-Whitney test (d to e), two-sided Chi-square test (f), one-way ANOVA with Holm-Šídák’s multiple comparisons test (f) and two-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test (g). Data are presented as mean ± S.E.M. * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01; *** P < 0.001. Detailed statistics see source data.
