0798: prazosin vs propranolol

Dear Dr Feeney, very interesting presentation and intriguing results, especially since, as you note, these drugs are in common use and may impede recovery from injuries such as stroke. In your introduction you present the hypothesis that "prazosin, but not propranolol, administered to recovered rats would reinstate hemiplegia"; however, i missed the rationale for this hypothesis. can you elaborate?
cheers, henry
