1 Normal Sleep: Neurobiological Mechanisms

2 Objectives Why sleep? What makes us sleep? How is normal sleep achieved? When do we sleep?

3 why do we need sleep? Biologic and Homeostatic Drives eat to satisfy hunger, and provide nutrients sleep to feel rested, and provide.?

4 Totals sleep time is inversely proportional to body size 18hrs 14hrs 12hrs 10hrs 7hrs Siegel J, Scientific American, Nov 2003

5 Sleep time in mammals Seigel J, Nature 2005

6 Normal sleep Architecture Sleep entered through NREM sleep Sleep cycles: NREM and REM sleep alternate thru the night in the cyclic fashion First Cycle average length minutes Second and later cycle average length minutes Stage 1 2-5% Stage % SWS 15-20% REM 20-25%

7 Broad Sense: Why sleep? Sleep (NREM and REM) is present in ancestral organisms even fruit flies and has some biologic advantage. Unresolved issues: Sleep in birds and mammals may have evolved independently. Developmentally sleep and REM sleep in particular are often expressed at a high level before the emergence of NREM and adult patterns of wake/sleep transition. Sleep is embedded in a circadian rhythm.

8 Current theories Primary Remodel synaptic plasticity induced by wakefulness. Restore brain energy stores. Secondary Consolidation of certain kinds of learning Endocrine functions Restore body systems

9 Why we need NREM? Reverse toxic effects of Wakefulness ROS are found in hypothalamus but not on neo-cortex Sleep enables decline in ROS production and facilitates replacement of cellular components of neurons and ganglia Protein synthesis and neurogeneration SWS is associated with higher rates of protein synthesis throughout the brain Memory consolidation: concepual Nakanishi et al Eur J Neurosci 1997 Ramp P, Smith CT Physiol Behav 1990

10 Why we need REM? What is REM? State of high brain metabolic and neuronal activity rates Reduced muscle tone Diminished thermoregulation Reinoso-Suarez F, Sleep Medicine Reviews, 2001

11 Why we need REM? REM amount/tst correlates with immaturity at birth Giraffe & guinea pigs (precious) versus the platypus (atricial) Monoamine replenishment Transport mechanisms & receptors Prime for awake state Memory Complex Motor performance Siegel J, PLoS biol, 2005 Madhu K, Metabolism Clinical and Experimental, 2006

12 REM and Developmental Plasticity Development (MD is monoocular light deprivation) MD w/ REM deprivation MD Non-REM deprived Cell size nonpatched eye Cell size from patched segment * Endogenous activity that tend to prevent abnormal brain connections Prevents programmed cell death Eliminating superfluous brain matter Shaffery JP, et al Sleep 1998

13 How or what makes us sleep? Starting with neurotransmitters and wakefulness

14 Wake Neurostransmitters Histamine (TMN) Determinant of wakefulness & consciousness Involved in forebrain arousals Inactive in REM Adrenergic (Various) Regulate awake muscle tone/activity Inactive in REM Dopamine (Ventral tegmentum of Midbrain) Serotonin (LC and midbrain raphe) Highest in Wake/ Lowest in REM Regulate muscle tone in REM (inhibits eye movements of REM and muscle twitch generation) Hypocretin (perifornical region of lateral Hypothalamus) Drive the other arousal NT s Saper Trend Neurosci 2001

15 Reticular Activating System (RAS) dorsal and ventral pathways Acetylcholine Basal forebrain LDT/PPT Thalamic relay (+) Reticular nucleus of the Thalamus (-) Histamine Broad activation Specific inhibition of VLPO sleep Aminergic system Saper Trend Neurosci 2001

27 When do we sleep?

28 Cues for sleep: Circadian zeitgebers Light Food Social Exercise Indirect Melatonin Adenosine

29 Hormonal rhythm control Light: 1. Strong phase shifter 2. MLT peak is proportional to light portion 24h/cycle 3. Pulse of light at peak MLT levels produces rapid suppression Moore R., Behavioral Brain Research 1996

30

31 LP Orexin PVH Steroids VLPO Sleep Limbic System Visceral Cortex Temp Grehlin apetite Sympathetic system via superior cervical ganglion Pineal Leptin satiety Cho T, et al., 2003 Saper C, 2005

32 Meerlo P., et al,. Review Stress, 2005 Merrlo, et al., 1997 Uncomfortable social interactions dampen circadian rhythms Quality of sleep is principally affected Stress neuroendocrine signals ( stress ) do not have a major effect on circadian rhythm AVP may delay clock

33 Sex Differences Normal Menstrual Cycle Progesterone = soporific Subjective sleepiness in luteal phase No significant differences in sleep between follicular and luteal phases: EEG Total sleep time Sleep onset REM and non-rem time Psychiatry Clin Neurosci Apr;53(2):207

34 LH and sleep LH surge during sleep is the harbinger of puberty in women. In adult life LH is not closely associated with sleep states.

35 Growth Hormone and Sleep NREM sleep and GH surges

36 ACTH/Cortisol and Sleep In contrast to GH, more driven by circadian than sleep CRF/ACTH and then Cortisol increase are associated with a rising temperature profile and alerting process at the end of the major sleep cycle. Inverse relationship between delta waves and cortisol

37 Prolactin and Sleep Increases in prolactin with sleep onset SWS even when there is a change in circadian rhythm The mechanism may be a reduction in dopamine, which usually inhibits prolactin Increased SWS with prolactinomas Prolactin elevations increase REM sleep and reductions reduce REM sleep.

38 Summary Sleep is necessary for brain cell structure health & wellness N-REM is homeostatic for brain metabolism REM arranges neurophysiologic state Specific opposing neurotrasmitters action Awake/sleep is regulated by stable flip-flop mechanism Circadian control mediated by light>melatonin Somatic, limbic cues are strong regulators
