A cluster of mesopontine GABAergic neurons suppresses REM sleep and curbs cataplexy
Cell Discovery, 2022 Physiological rapid eye movement (REM) sleep termination is vital for initiating non-REM (NREM) sleep or arousal, whereas the suppression of excessive REM sleep is promising in treating narcolepsy.

Molecular Mechanisms of REM Sleep
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020 Rapid-eye movement (REM) sleep is a paradoxical sleep state characterized by brain activity similar to wakefulness, rapid-eye-movement, and lack of muscle tone.

Circadian and ultradian NREM-REM sleep modulation of dream recall : effects of age and spectral activity [PDF]
, 2011 This thesis deals with the electrophysiological correlates of sleep prior to dream recall and the age-related effects on dream processing. The dual NREM/REM sleep cycle and the circadian modulation of REM sleep sum to generate dream processing.

Frontiers in Neurology, 2012 Sleep is characterized as rapid eye movement (REM) and non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep. Studies suggest that wake-related neurons in the basal forebrain, posterior hypothalamus and brainstem and NREM sleep-related neurons in the anterior-hypothalamic

Prodromal Lewy Body Disorder Features in REM Sleep Behavior Disorder With Biomarker-Defined Synucleinopathy. [PDF]
Ann Clin Transl NeurolABSTRACT Objective Isolated rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) is a prodromal state for Lewy body disorders and exhibits biological heterogeneity that may influence clinical expression and progression. We examined clinical features in individuals with iRBD and biomarker‐defined synucleinopathy.

A continuum model for the dynamics of the phase transition from slow-wave sleep to REM sleep [PDF]
, 2010 Previous studies have shown that activated cortical states (awake and rapid eye-movement (REM) sleep), are associated with increased cholinergic input into the cerebral cortex.

Coupled flip-flop model for REM sleep regulation in the rat.
PLoS ONE, 2014 Recent experimental studies investigating the neuronal regulation of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep have identified mutually inhibitory synaptic projections among REM sleep-promoting (REM-on) and REM sleep-inhibiting (REM-off) neuronal populations that ...

Antidepressants and their effect on sleep [PDF]
, 2005 Given the relationship between sleep and depression, there is inevitably going to be an effect of antidepressants on sleep. Current evidence suggests that this effect depends on the class of antidepressant used and the dosage.
