Sites of action of sleep and wake drugs: insights from model organisms [PDF]
Small molecules have been used since antiquity to regulate our sleep. Despite the explosion of diverse drugs to treat problems of too much or too little sleep, the detailed mechanisms of action and especially the neuronal targets by which these compounds

Investigation and management of residual sleepiness in CPAP-treated patients with obstructive sleep apnoea: the European view [PDF]
Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a major symptom of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), defined as the inability to stay awake during the day. Its clinical descriptors remain elusive, and the pathogenesis is complex, with disorders such as insufficient

Genetic Analysis of Histamine Signaling in Larval Zebrafish Sleep [PDF]
Pharmacological studies in mammals and zebrafish suggest that histamine plays an important role in promoting arousal. However, genetic studies using rodents with disrupted histamine synthesis or signaling have revealed only subtle or no sleep/wake ...

Pitolisant protects mice chronically treated with corticosterone from some behavioral but not metabolic changes in corticosterone-induced depression model [PDF]
Purpose: Histamine H3 receptor ligands may have antidepressant and anxiolytic effects. They can also compensate for metabolic disorders, which affect glucose or triglyceride levels.

European guideline and expert statements on the management of narcolepsy in adults and children [PDF]
Background and purpose: Narcolepsy is an uncommon hypothalamic disorder of presumed autoimmune origin that usually requires lifelong treatment. This paper aims to provide evidence-based guidelines for the management of narcolepsy in both adults and ...

Dysregulation of BDNF and PI3K/Akt signaling in the brain of female Wistar-Kyoto rats exposed to chronic mild stress [PDF]
Background: The neurobiology underlying depression has not yet been fully identified, but is thought to result from molecular and cellular abnormalities that interact with genetic and environmental factors. Depression is twice as prevalent in women as in
