PT742. Histamine N-methyltransferase is important for the normal sleep-wake cycles and aggression through the regulation of brain histamine concentration.
Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the association between circadian types, temperament, and character. Methods: We analyze the data obtained from a total of 2910 students who undertook the Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI) and the Composite Scale of MorningnessEveningness (CSM). According to the CSM score, the circadian types were classified as the morning type (MT), neith...
متن کاملHistamine H3 receptors and sleep-wake regulation.
The histaminergic system fulfills a major role in the maintenance of waking. Histaminergic neurons are located exclusively in the posterior hypothalamus from where they project to most areas of the central nervous system. The histamine H(3) receptors are autoreceptors damping histamine synthesis, the firing frequency of histamine neurons, and the release of histamine from axonal varicosities. I...
متن کامل[Sleep-wake cycle mechanisms].
Neurochemically distinct systems interact regulating sleep and wakefulness. Wakefulness is promoted by aminergic, acetylcholinergic brainstem and hypothalamic systems. Each of these arousal systems supports wakefulness and coordinated activity is required for alertness and EEG activation. Neurons in the pons and preoptic area control rapid eye movement and non-rapid eye movement sleep. Mutual i...
متن کاملCircadian control of the sleep-wake cycle.
It is beyond doubt that the timing of sleep is under control of the circadian pacemaker. Humans are a diurnal species; they sleep mostly at night, and they do so at approximately 24-h intervals. If they do not adhere to this general pattern, for instance when working night shifts or when travelling across time zones, they experience the stubborn influence of their circadian clock. In recent yea...
متن کاملBrain Energetics During the Sleep-Wake Cycle
Brain activity during wakefulness is associated with high metabolic rates that are believed to support information processing and memory encoding. In spite of loss of consciousness, sleep still carries a substantial energy cost. Experimental evidence supports a cerebral metabolic shift taking place during sleep that suppresses aerobic glycolysis, a hallmark of environment-oriented waking behavi...
