The primary function of REM sleep [PDF]
, 2006 In this paper, the physiological features associated with the different stages of REM sleep and with what information processing researchers have called “effort” and “arousal” are compared.

REM sleep in acutely traumatized individuals and interventions for the secondary prevention of post-traumatic stress disorder [PDF]
, 2020 Increasing evidence supports a close link between REM sleep and the consolidation of emotionally toned memories such as traumatic experiences. In order to investigate the role of sleep for the development of symptoms related to traumatic experiences ...

REM Sleep and Endothermy: Potential Sites and Mechanism of a Reciprocal Interference
Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 Numerous data show a reciprocal interaction between REM sleep and thermoregulation. During REM sleep, the function of thermoregulation appears to be impaired; from the other hand, the tonic activation of thermogenesis, such as during cold exposure ...

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.

Loss of REM sleep features across nighttime in REM sleep behavior disorder [PDF]
Sleep Medicine, 2016 Melatonin is a chronobiotic treatment which also alleviates rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD). Because the mechanisms of this benefit are unclear, we evaluated the clock-dependent REM sleep characteristics in patients with RBD, whether idiopathic (iRBD) or associated with Parkinson's Disease (PD), and we compared findings with PD ...

Effects of social stimuli on sleep in mice: non-rapid-eye-movement (NREM) sleep is promoted by aggressive interaction but not by sexual interaction [PDF]
, 2001 Sleep is generally considered to be a process of recovery from prior wakefulness. In addition to being affected by the duration of the waking period, sleep architecture and sleep EEG also depend on the quality of wakefulness.

REM sleep homeostasis in the absence of REM sleep: Effects of antidepressants
Neuropharmacology, 2016 Most antidepressants suppress rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, which is thought to be important to brain function, yet the resulting REM sleep restriction is well tolerated. This study investigated the impact of antidepressants with different mechanisms of action, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and tricyclic antidepressants (TCA)

Reply to Grace: Role of cholinergic neurons in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep control [PDF]
, 2017 We thank Grace (1) for the opportunity to discuss the role of cholinergic neurons in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep further. Grace suggests that optogenetic activation of a population of neurons does not necessarily demonstrate their role in the ...
