Effects of Paradoxical Sleep Deprivation on MCH and Hypocretin Systems [PDF]
Sleep ScienceMelanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) and hypocretins (Hcrt) 1 and 2 are neuropeptides synthesized in the lateral hypothalamic area by neurons that are critical in the regulation of sleep and wakefulness.

Sleep pattern and learning in knockdown mice with reduced cholinergic neurotransmission [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2013 Impaired cholinergic neurotransmission can affect memory formation and influence sleep-wake cycles (SWC). In the present study, we describe the SWC in mice with a deficient vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) system, previously characterized as ...

Melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH): role in REM sleep and depression [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2015 The melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) is a peptidergic neuromodulator synthesized by neurons of the lateral hypothalamus and incerto-hypothalamic area. MCHergic neurons project throughout the central nervous system, including areas such as the dorsal (
