General locomotor activity (arbitrary units) in rats housed in constant darkness. Successive 24-h periods are double-plotted (48-h horizontal time scale). At circadian time 14, animals in (a and b) were perfused via implanted catheter with propofol (60 mg/kg) and vehicle solution of intralipids, respectively. Note that propofol treatment leads to a subsequent phase-advance in the circadian rhythm of rest-activity, that is not detected after perfusion of the vehicle. Onset of perfusion is indicated by an asterisk.
