However, pontine ensemble 17 dynamics underlying sleep regulation remain poorly understood. By monitoring population 18 activity in multiple pontine and adjacent brainstem areas, here we show slow, state-predictive 19 pontine ensemble dynamics and state-dependent interactions between the pons and the 20 cortex in mice. On a timescale of seconds to minutes, pontine populations exhibit diverse 21 firing across vigilance states, with some of these dynamics being attributed to cell type- 22 specific activity. Pontine population activity can predict pupil dilation and vigilance states: 23 pontine neurons exhibit longer predictable power compared with hippocampal neurons. -
Regional Delta Waves in Human Rapid Eye Movement Sleep
2686 • The Journal of Neuroscience, April 3, 2019 • 39(14):2686–2697 Systems/Circuits Regional Delta Waves In Human Rapid Eye Movement Sleep X Giulio Bernardi,1,2 XMonica Betta,2 XEmiliano Ricciardi,2 XPietro Pietrini,2 Giulio Tononi,3 and X Francesca Siclari1 1Center for Investigation and Research on Sleep, Lausanne University Hospital, CH-1011 Lausanne, Switzerland, 2MoMiLab Research Unit, IMT School for Advanced Studies, IT-55100 Lucca, Italy, and 3Department of Psychiatry, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin 53719 Although the EEG slow wave of sleep is typically considered to be a hallmark of nonrapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, recent work in mice has shown that slow waves can also occur in REM sleep. Here, we investigated the presence and cortical distribution of negative delta (1–4 Hz) waves in human REM sleep by analyzing high-density EEG sleep recordings obtained in 28 healthy subjects. We identified two clusters of delta waves with distinctive properties: (1) a frontal-central cluster characterized by ϳ2.5–3.0 Hz, relatively large, notched delta waves (so-called “sawtooth waves”) that tended to occur in bursts, were associated with increased gamma activity and rapid eye movements (EMs), and upon source modeling displayed an occipital-temporal and a frontal-central component and (2) a medial- occipital cluster characterized by more isolated, slower (Ͻ2 Hz), and smaller waves that were not associated with rapid EMs, displayed a negative correlation with gamma activity, and were also found in NREM sleep. Therefore, delta waves are an integral part of REM sleep in humans and the two identified subtypes (sawtooth and medial-occipital slow waves) may reflect distinct generation mechanisms and functional roles. -
Slow Waves and Sleep Spindles in Unaffected First-Degree Relatives
www.nature.com/npjschz ARTICLE OPEN Sleep endophenotypes of schizophrenia: slow waves and sleep spindles in unaffected first-degree relatives Armando D’Agostino 1,2, Anna Castelnovo1, Simone Cavallotti2, Cecilia Casetta1, Matteo Marcatili1, Orsola Gambini1,2, Mariapaola Canevini1,2, Giulio Tononi3, Brady Riedner3, Fabio Ferrarelli4 and Simone Sarasso 5 Sleep spindles and slow waves are the main brain oscillations occurring in non-REM sleep. Several lines of evidence suggest that spindles are initiated within the thalamus, whereas slow waves are generated and modulated in the cortex. A decrease in sleep spindle activity has been described in Schizophrenia (SCZ), including chronic, early course, and early onset patients. In contrast, slow waves have been inconsistently found to be reduced in SCZ, possibly due to confounds like duration of illness and antipsychotic medication exposure. Nontheless, the implication of sleep spindles and slow waves in the neurobiology of SCZ and related disorders, including their heritability, remains largely unknown. Unaffected first-degree relatives (FDRs) share a similar genetic background and several neurophysiological and cognitive deficits with SCZ patients, and allow testing whether some of these measures are candidate endophenotypes. In this study, we performed sleep high-density EEG recordings to characterise the spatiotemporal features of sleep spindles and slow waves in FDRs of SCZ probands and healthy subjects (HS) with no family history of SCZ. We found a significant reduction of integrated spindle activity (ISAs) in FDRs relative to HS, whereas spindle density and spindle duration were not different between groups. FDRs also had decreased slow wave amplitude and slopes. Altogether, our results suggest that ISAs deficits might represent a candidate endophenotype for SCZ. -

Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, Charlestown, MA Study Objectives: In schizophrenia there is a dramatic reduction of sleep spindles that predicts deficient sleep-dependent memory consolidation. Eszopiclone (Lunesta), a non-benzodiazepine hypnotic, acts on γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurons in the thalamic reticular nucleus where spindles are generated. We investigated whether eszopiclone could increase spindles and thereby improve memory consolidation in schizophrenia. Design: In a double-blind design, patients were randomly assigned to receive either placebo or 3 mg of eszopiclone. Patients completed Baseline and Treatment visits, each consisting of two consecutive nights of polysomnography. On the second night of each visit, patients were trained on the motor sequence task (MST) at bedtime and tested the following morning. Setting: Academic research center. Participants: Twenty-one chronic, medicated schizophrenia outpatients. Measurements and Results: We compared the effects of two nights of eszopiclone vs. placebo on stage 2 sleep spindles and overnight changes in MST performance. Eszopiclone increased the number and density of spindles over baseline levels significantly more than placebo, but did not significantly enhance overnight MST improvement. -

Muscle Tone Regulation During REM Sleep: Neural Circuitry and Clinical Significance
Archives Italiennes de Biologie, 149: 348-366, 2011. Muscle tone regulation during REM sleep: neural circuitry and clinical significance R. VETRIVELAN, C. CHANG, J. LU Department of Neurology and Division of Sleep Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA A bstract Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is a distinct behavioral state characterized by an activated cortical and hippo- campal electroencephalogram (EEG) and concurrent muscle atonia. Research conducted over the past 50 years has revealed the neuronal circuits responsible for the generation and maintenance of REM sleep, as well as the pathways involved in generating the cardinal signs of REM sleep such as cortical activation and muscle atonia. The generation and maintenance of REM sleep appear to involve a widespread network in the pons and medulla. The caudal laterodorsal tegmental nucleus (cLDT) and sublaterodorsal nucleus (SLD) within the dorsolateral pons contain REM-on neurons, and the ventrolateral periaqueductal grey (vlPAG) contains REM-off neurons. The inter- action between these structures is proposed to regulate REM sleep amounts. The cLDT-SLD neurons project to the basal forebrain via the parabrachial-precoeruleus (PB-PC) complex, and this pathway may be critical for the EEG activation seen during REM sleep. Descending SLD glutamatergic projections activating the premotor neurons in the ventromedial medulla and spinal cord interneurons bring about muscle atonia and suppress phasic muscle twitches in spinal musculature. In contrast, phasic muscle twitches in the masseter muscles may be driven by glu- tamatergic neurons in the rostral parvicellular reticular nucleus (PCRt); however, the brain regions responsible for generating phasic twitches in other cranial muscles, including facial muscles and the tongue, are not clear. -

St. Louis: Elsevier Saunders. Chapter 2 – Normal Human Sleep : An Overview Mary A. Carskadon, William C. Dement Abstract Normal human sleep comprises two states—rapid eye movement (REM) and non–REM (NREM) sleep— that alternate cyclically across a sleep episode. State characteristics are well defined: NREM sleep includes a variably synchronous cortical electroencephalogram (EEG; including sleep spindles, K- complexes, and slow waves) associated with low muscle tonus and minimal psychological activity; the REM sleep EEG is desynchronized, muscles are atonic, and dreaming is typical. A nightly pattern of sleep in mature humans sleeping on a regular schedule includes several reliable characteristics: Sleep begins in NREM and progresses through deeper NREM stages (stages 2, 3, and 4 using the classic definitions, or stages N2 and N3 using the updated definitions) before the first episode of REM sleep occurs approximately 80 to 100 minutes later. Thereafter, NREM sleep and REM sleep cycle with a period of approximately 90 minutes. NREM stages 3 and 4 (or stage N3) concentrate in the early NREM cycles, and REM sleep episodes lengthen across the night. Age-related changes are also predictable: Newborn humans enter REM sleep (called active sleep) before NREM (called quiet sleep) and have a shorter sleep cycle (approximately 50 minutes); coherent sleep stages emerge as the brain matures during the first year. At birth, active sleep is approximately 50% of total sleep and declines over the first 2 years to approximately 20% to 25%. -
