Popis: | Sleep homeostasis is a fundamental property of vigilance state regulation that is highly conserved across species. Neuronal systems and circuits that underlie sleep homeostasis are not well understood. In Drosophila, a neuronal circuit involving neurons in the ellipsoid body and in the dorsal Fan-shaped body is a candidate for both tracing sleep need during waking and translating it to increased sleep drive and expression. Sleep homeostasis in rats and mice involves multiple neuromodulators acting on multiple wake- and sleep-promoting neuronal systems. A functional central homeostat emerges from A1 receptor mediated actions of adenosine on wake-promoting neurons in the basal forebrain and hypothalamus, and A2A adenosine receptor-mediated actions on sleep-promoting neurons in the preoptic hypothalamus and nucleus accumbens. |
