Q

what is the brain region responsible for sleep promoting?

A

Ventrolateral Preoptic Area (VPLO)

17
Q

What are the 4 brain regions responsible for wake promoting?

A
  • Locus Coeruleus (LC)
  • Raphe Nuclei
  • Tuberomammillary Nucleus (TMN)
  • Lateral hypothalamic area (LHA)
18
Q

Ventrolateral Preoptic Area
-Neurotransmitter
-SP or WP
-Associated sleep disorder

A

-GABA
-SP
-Insomnia

19
Q

Locus Coeruleus
-Neurotransmitter
-SP or WP
-Associated sleep disorder

A

-Norepinephrine
-WP
-Narcolepsy

20
Q

Raphe Nuclei
-Neurotransmitter
-SP or WP

A

-Serotonin
-WP

21
Q

Tuberomammillary Nucleus
-Neurotransmitter
-SP or WP

A

-Histamine
-WP

22
Q

Lateral Hypothalamic Area
-Neurotransmitter
-SP or WP

A

-Orexin
-WP

23
Q

How does sleep deprivation impact adenosine in the day, and data wake and sleep intensity at night?

A

Increase adenosine and intensity

24
Q

How does napping impact adenosine in the day, and data wake and sleep intensity at night?

A

Decreases adenosine and intensity

25
How does exercise impact adenosine in the day, and data wake and sleep intensity at night?
Increases adenosine and intensity
26
What does adenosine bind to?
VPLO
27
How does caffeine affect sleep?
-Acts as an antagonist to adenosine -Prevents the binding of adenosine to its receptors -delays sleepiness
28
Zeitgebers
Environmental cues about time that reset brain time to 24 hours
29
What are examples of zeitgebers?
- Sunlight: when the sun sets it causes the release of melatonin - Exercise
30
Clock genes
- Set brain time to 24.2 hours -Without time cues we stay up later and later
31
Thalamus Burst Mode
-Bursts of APs -AAS off -Promotes Sleep -Synchronizes activity in cortex
32
Thalamus Spike Mode
-Single APs -AAS on - promotes wake -desynchronizes activity in the cortex
33
What is the function of REM sleep and what is the consequences of disrupton
- Alters memories so they are less emotionally distressing - disruption increases amygdala activity and emotional distress
34
Examples of things that disrupt REM
Alcohol or cannabis
