Neural circuitry of rapid eye movement sleep homeostasis: Mechanistic insights and pathological implications

open access: yesSleep Research
Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is a unique brain state crucial for emotion, memory, and plasticity. Unlike well‐understood non‐REM (NREM) sleep homeostasis, REM sleep homeostasis remains less clearly defined.

Shotgun Metagenomic Profiling of the Gut Virome in Prodromal and Confirmed Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
We conducted a nested case‐control study within the Nurses’ Health Study and the Health Professionals Follow‐up Study to examine the role of the gut virome (GV) in Parkinson's disease (PD). We applied a novel metagenomic virome profiling approach, Bioinformatic Application for Quantification and Labeling of Viral taxonomy (BAQLaVa), to prospectively ...

Dreaming and Insomnia: Link between Physiological REM Parameters and Mentation Characteristics

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2020
(1) Background: An unresolved phenomenon of insomnia disorder is a discrepancy between objectively measured sleep and subjective complaints. It has been shown that rapid eye movement (REM) sleep might be especially vulnerable to an altered perception ...

T. rex cognition was T. rex‐like—A critical outlook on diverging views of the neurocognitive evolution in dinosaurs

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract A recent debate has emerged between Caspar et al. (2024) and Herculano‐Houzel (2023) on inferring extinct dinosaur cognition by estimating brain neuron counts. While thought‐provoking, the discussion largely overlooks the function of cognition, as well as partly neglects the difficulties involved in estimating neuron numbers, which according ...
