Journal ArticleDOI
Serotonin control of sleep-wake behavior.
TL;DR: 5-HT(2A) and 5- HT(2C) receptor knock-out mice show a significant increase of W and a reduction of slow wave sleep (SWS) which has been ascribed to the increase of catecholaminergic neurotransmission involving mainly the noradrenergic and dopaminergic systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
The involvement of dopamine in the modulation of sleep and waking
Jaime M. Monti,Daniel Monti +1 more
TL;DR: It has been proposed that DA cells in the midbrain show a change in temporal pattern rather than firing rate during the sleep-wake cycle, and a series of structures relevant for the regulation of the behavioral state could be partly responsible for the changes in the temporal pattern of activity of DA neurons.
Book ChapterDOI
The roles of dopamine and serotonin, and of their receptors, in regulating sleep and waking
Jaime M. Monti,Héctor Jantos +1 more
TL;DR: Based on electrophysiological, neurochemical and neuropharmacological approaches, it is currently accepted that serotonin (5-HT) and dopamine (DA) function to promote waking (W) and to inhibit slow wave sleep (SWS) and/or rapid-eye-movement sleep (REMS).
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep in schizophrenia patients and the effects of antipsychotic drugs
Jaime M. Monti,Daniel Monti +1 more
TL;DR: The sleep disturbances of either never-medicated or previously treated schizophrenia patients are characterized by a sleep-onset and maintenance insomnia, and the atypical antipsychotics olanzapine, risperidone, and clozapine significantly increase total sleep time and stage 2 sleep.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep disturbance in generalized anxiety disorder and its treatment
Jaime M. Monti,Daniel Monti +1 more
TL;DR: Insomnia associated with mild-to-moderate GAD generally responds to psychological treatments and anxiolytic benzodiazepines and concomitant administration of hypnotic medication can be contemplated in patients with severe GAD.
