TL;DR: In this article, the role of serotonergic receptors in modulating sleep-wake cycle and learning and memory function was discussed, and the effect of sleep deprivation on memory function and the potential interaction with serotonin was discussed.

TL;DR: In this article, the role of sleep deprivation in learning and memory processing in basic and clinical studies is discussed, and the authors compare the similar mechanisms between the impairment and the improvement effects of sleep loss.
Abstract: In this review article, we aimed to discuss the role of sleep deprivation (SD) in learning and memory processing in basic and clinical studies. There are numerous studies investigating the effect of SD on memory, while most of these studies have shown the impairment effect of SD. However, some of these studies have reported conflicting results, indicating that SD does not impair memory performance or even improves it. So far, no study has discussed or compared the conflicting results of SD on learning and memory. Thus, this important issue in the neuroscience of sleep remains unknown. The main goal of this review article is to compare the similar mechanisms between the impairment and the improvement effects of SD on learning and memory, probably leading to a scientific solution that justifies these conflicting results. We focused on the inconsistent effects of SD on some mechanisms involved in learning and memory, and tried to discuss the inconsistent effects of SD on learning and memory.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors focused on the calculation of Risk Quotients (RQs) of 34 pharmaceutical active compounds (PhACs) based on environmental and ecotoxicological data available in the literature and prediction from the ECOSAR V2.2 software.

TL;DR: The role of sleep disturbances and Alzheimer's disease in the regulation of synaptic plasticity, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, and clock genes expression is discussed and the potential dualistic role ofSleep disturbances in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's Disease is evaluated.

TL;DR: The results showed that only 24 h SD impaired spatial learning and memory in rats, and it is suggested that STZ has more important mechanisms that are involved in its memory impairment effect, and maybe, STZ-induced inflammation has a more important role.
