Slow-wave sleep, acetylcholine, and memory consolidation [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004 There has been a long history of experimentation and conjecture about a potentially critical role in memory consolidation for brain processes unique to sleep (1–3). A role for sleep in memory consolidation is consistent with the fact that new memory traces are not instantly fixed but rather remain susceptible to neuromodulatory influences for several ...

Atrial Fibrillation and Objective Sleep Quality by Slow Wave Sleep [PDF]
Journal of Atrial Fibrillation, 2018 Self-reported poor sleep quality has been suggested in patients with AF. Slow wave sleep (SWS) is considered the most restorative sleep stage and represents an important objective measure of sleep quality. The aim of this study was to compare quantity of SWS between patients with and without AF.We included patients with and without a documented history

A hypothetic aging pathway from skin to hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus via slow wave sleep
Sleep Science, 2016 Many observations have demonstrated that the hypothalamic neuroendocrine change determines the chronological sequence of aging in mammals. However, it remains uncertain on the mechanism to account for the hypothalamic aging manifestations.

Involvement of cytokines in slow wave sleep [PDF]
, 2011 Cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) and interleukin-1 beta (IL1β) play a role in sleep regulation in health and disease. TNFα or IL1β injection enhances non-rapid eye movement sleep. Inhibition of TNFα or IL1β reduces spontaneous sleep. Mice lacking TNFα or IL1β receptors sleep less.
