Sleep architecture when sleeping at an unusual circadian time and associations with insulin sensitivity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Circadian misalignment affects total sleep time, but it may also affect sleep architecture. The objectives of this study were to examine intra-individual effects of circadian misalignment on sleep architecture and inter-individual relationships between ...

Optogenetic activation of cholinergic neurons in the PPT or LDT induces REM sleep [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is an important component of the natural sleep/wake cycle, yet the mechanisms that regulate REM sleep remain incompletely understood.

What Is REM Sleep? [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2020
For many decades, sleep researchers have sought to determine which species ‘have’ rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. In doing so, they relied predominantly on a template derived from the expression of REM sleep in the adults of a small number of mammalian species.

Effects Of 4-thiazolidinone Derivatives Les-2658 And Les-1205 On Sleep - Wakefulness Cycle In Kindled Rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The research is dedicated to in-depth study of neurotrophic and antiepileptic properties of original potential anticonvulsant agents from 4-thiazolidinones – LES-2658 (5-(3-nitro-benzylidene)-2-(thiazol-2-ylimino)-thiazolidin-4-one) and LES-1205 ([2,4 ...

Comparing the cardiac autonomic activity profile of daytime naps and nighttime sleep. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Heart rate variability (HRV) is a reliable technique to evaluate autonomic activity and shows marked changes across a night of sleep. Previous nighttime sleep findings report changes in HRV during non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREM), which have been ...

REM Sleep and Endothermy: Potential Sites and Mechanism of a Reciprocal Interference

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Is REM Density a Measure of Arousal during Sleep?

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2023
Rapid eye movements (REMs), an expression of REM sleep phasic activity, occur against a stable background of cortical desynchronization and the absence of axial tone. The significance of REMs during the sleep period was initially attributed to the mental

Sociality Affects REM Sleep Episode Duration Under Controlled Laboratory Conditions in the Rock Hyrax, Procavia capensis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The rock hyrax, Procavia capensis, is a highly social, diurnal mammal. In the current study several physiologically measurable parameters of sleep, as well as the accompanying behavior, were recorded continuously from five rock hyraxes, for 72 h under ...

Evening light environments can be designed to consolidate and increase the duration of REM-sleep

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Evening exposure to short-wavelength light has disruptive effects on circadian rhythms and sleep. These effects can be mitigated by blocking short-wavelength (blue) frequencies, which has led to the development of evening blue-depleted light environments
