Journal ArticleDOI

Basal forebrain control of wakefulness and cortical rhythms

TL;DR: It is shown that genetically targeted chemogenetic activation of BF cholinergic or glutamatergic neurons in behaving mice produced significant effects on state consolidation and/or the electroencephalogram but had no effect on total wake.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Novel Population of Wake-Promoting GABAergic Neurons in the Ventral Lateral Hypothalamus

TL;DR: A population of VLPO-projecting neurons in the LH that express the vesicular GABA transporter (VGAT; a marker for GABA-releasing neurons) is described, which may play a particularly important role in sleep-wake switching.
Journal ArticleDOI

Supramammillary glutamate neurons are a key node of the arousal system

TL;DR: It is reported that glutamate-releasing neurons of the supramammillary region (SuMvglut2) produce sustained behavioral and EEG arousal when chemogenetically activated, and this effect is nearly abolished following selective genetic disruption of glutamate release from SuMvGlut2 neurons.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Genetically Defined Circuit for Arousal from Sleep during Hypercapnia.

TL;DR: It is reported that selective chemogenetic andoptogenetic activation of PBelCGRP neurons caused wakefulness, whereas optogenetic inhibition of P BelC GRP neurons prevented arousal to CO2, but not to an acoustic tone or shaking.
