A predictive propensity measure to enter REM sleep
Frontiers in NeuroscienceIntroductionDuring sleep periods, most mammals alternate multiple times between rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep and non-REM (NREM) sleep. A common theory proposes that these transitions are governed by an “hourglass-like” homeostatic need to enter REM ...

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

Regulation of REM and Non-REM Sleep by Periaqueductal GABAergic Neurons
Nature Communications, 2018 Mammalian sleep consists of distinct rapid eye movement (REM) and non-REM (NREM) states. The midbrain region ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (vlPAG) is known to be important for gating REM sleep, but the underlying neuronal mechanism is not well ...

Essential roles of GABA transporter-1 in controlling rapid eye movement sleep and in increased slow wave activity after sleep deprivation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 GABA is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system that has been strongly implicated in the regulation of sleep. GABA transporter subtype 1 (GAT1) constructs high affinity reuptake sites for GABA and regulates GABAergic

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 ...

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)

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019 Significance Sleep disturbances are common in stress-related disorders but the nature of these sleep disturbances and how they relate to changes in the stress hormone corticosterone and changes in gene expression remained unknown.

Melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH): a new sleep factor?
Frontiers in Neurology, 2011 Neurons that utilize the neuropeptide melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) as a neuromodulator are mainly located in the lateral hypothalamus and the incerto-hypothalamic area, and have widespread projections throughout the brain.

A Fast-Slow Analysis of the Dynamics of REM Sleep
, 2012 Waking and sleep states are regulated by the coordinated activity of a number of neuronal population in the brainstem and hypothalamus whose synaptic interactions compose a sleep-wake regulatory network.
