Brain 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...
متن کاملActivity-based sleep-wake identification in infants.
Actigraphy offers one of the best-known alternatives to polysomnography for sleep-wake identification. The advantages of actigraphy include high accuracy, simplicity of use and low intrusiveness. These features allow the use of actigraphy for determining sleep-wake states in such highly sensitive groups as infants. This study utilizes a motion sensor (accelerometer) for a dual purpose: to deter...
متن کاملRegional brain activity during working memory tasks.
The first aim of our PET study was to replicate previous findings concerning the brain areas activated by a verbal working memory task. The second aim was to specify the neural basis of the central executive, using a task of working memory updating. Our data confirm that the lower left supramarginal gyrus and premotor area are the key regions subserving short-term verbal memory processes. They ...
متن کاملRegional distribution of SGLT activity in rat brain in vivo.
Na(+)-glucose cotransporter (SGLT) mRNAs have been detected in many organs of the body, but, apart from kidney and intestine, transporter expression, localization, and functional activity, as well as physiological significance, remain elusive. Using a SGLT-specific molecular imaging probe, α-methyl-4-deoxy-4-[(18)F]fluoro-D-glucopyranoside (Me-4-FDG) with ex vivo autoradiography and immunohisto...
متن کاملEffects of bilateral lesion of the locus coeruleus on the sleep-wake cycle in the rat
Introduction: Noradrenergic cells in LC participate in the process of cortical activation and behavioral arousal. The evidence suggests that locus ceoruleus (LC) plays an important role in the sleep-wake cycle. The aim of this study was stereological estimation of cavity caused by lesion and assessment of sleep stages after bilateral lesion of the LC. Materials and Methods: Male Wistar rats we...
