Popis: The vlPAG in the midbrain is known to suppress REM sleep, but the precise neural correlates are not known. Here, the authors record the activity of vlPAG GABAergic neurons during the sleep–wake cycle and report fast changes at REM sleep transitions and slower changes that correlate with REM sleep pressure.
