<i>Ucp2</i>^−/− mice recover faster than wild type mice upon arousal from isoflurane-induced anaesthesia.

<p>Graphic representation of arousal and locomotion times of <i>Ucp2</i>^+/+ and <i>Ucp2</i>^−/− mice after isoflurane anaesthesia. Mice inhaled isoflurane 3.6% for five minutes in an anesthetic chamber. Anaesthesia was interrupted by taking the mice out of the chamber. The mice were laid down on their back and from this time-point, arousal (rotation of the mice onto their feet) and locomotion times were recorded.
