Ventromedial medulla inhibitory neuron inactivation induces REM sleep without atonia and REM sleep behavior disorder [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2018
Loss of muscle tone is a distinguishing feature of paradoxical or REM sleep (PS) and is disrupted in REM sleep behavior disorder. Here the authors report that GABA/glycine inhibitory neurons in the ventromedial medulla are essential for producing PS ...

REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD)

Neurobiology of Disease, 2020
Since its first description in 1986 by Dr. Carlos Schenck, and his group's subsequent report of the delayed emergence of a Parkinsonian disorder in idiopathic RBD patients one decade later, RBD has emerged in recent years as one of the most promising ...

Genome-wide association study of REM sleep behavior disorder identifies polygenic risk and brain expression effects

Nature Communications, 2022
REM-sleep behavior disorder often precedes Parkinson’s disease or dementia. Here, the authors perform a genome-wide association study for REM-sleep behavior disorder, and discover how it potentially affects gene expression in the brain.

Acute pontine infarction inducing REM sleep behavior disorder: a novel case report [PDF]

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is parasomnia characterized by the loss of physiological muscle atonia during REM sleep, resulting in dream-enacting behaviors that often manifest as complex, violent motor activity.

Parkinson’s Disease: A Narrative Review on Potential Molecular Mechanisms of Sleep Disturbances, REM Behavior Disorder, and Melatonin

Brain Sciences, 2023
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases. There is a wide range of sleep disturbances in patients with PD, such as insomnia and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (or REM behavior disorder (RBD)). RBD is
