Reply to Grace: Role of cholinergic neurons in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep control.
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 endogenous system when interrogating complex neural circuitry. We agree that we do not prove necessity of cholinergic neurons in REM sleep generation, ...
متن کاملCase Report of Rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder
SUMMARY A 23-year-old female student presented with a five-year history of abnormal sleep in which she would sit up or stand up for brief periods in the early morning, talk loudly for a couple of minutes and then lie back down. When woken by family members she would remember vivid dreams and nightmares. In one episode she had a fall that resulted in a subdural hematoma. On presentation at the p...
متن کاملMechanisms of seizure suppression during rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep in cats.
REM sleep is the most antiepileptic state in the sleep-wake cycle for human generalized epilepsy, yet the neural mechanism is unknown. This study verified the antiepileptic properties of REM sleep in feline generalized epilepsy and also isolated the responsible factors. Conclusions are based on 20 cats evaluated for generalized EEG and motor seizure susceptibility before and after dissociation ...

Phone: (52-55)6-22-22-51; Fax: (52-55)6-22-23-10. [email protected] Abstract. Gamma EEG and MEG activity was studied immediately after REM sleep eye movement onset as an index of cortical activation. Two strateg...
متن کاملRapid Eye Movement Sleep
• Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep was first identified by its most obvious feature: rapid eye movements occurring during sleep. In most adult mammals the electroencephalogram (EEG) of the neocortex is low in voltage during REM sleep. The hippocampus exhibits regular high-voltage theta waves throughout REM sleep. • The key brain structure for generating REM sleep is the brainstem, particularly th...
