Journal ArticleDOI

Role of basal ganglia in sleep-wake regulation: neural circuitry and clinical significance

TL;DR: This hypothesis implicates dopamine depletion in the BG (such as in Parkinson's disease) in causing frequent nighttime arousal and overall insomnia, and the arousal effects of psychostimulants may be linked to the ventral periaquductal gray dopaminergic circuitry targeting the extra-BG sleep–wake network.
Journal ArticleDOI

Melanin-concentrating hormone neurons specifically promote rapid eye movement sleep in mice

TL;DR: The results indicate that activation of MCH neurons primarily drives REM sleep and their presence may be necessary for normal expression of diurnal variation ofREM sleep and wake.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sustainability-inspired cell design for a fully recyclable sodium ion battery.

TL;DR: The authors show a bipolar electrode design that allows not only good electrochemical performance but a closed loop of material use for sodium ion batteries, suggesting that closed-loop recycling and the reutilization of battery materials can be achieved in next-generation energy storage technologies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neural pathways associated with loss of consciousness caused by intracerebral microinjection of GABAA-active anesthetics

TL;DR: It is hypothesize that barbiturate anesthetics and related agents microinjected into the MPTA enhance the inhibitory response of local GABAA‐R‐bearing neurons to endogenous GABA released at baseline during wakefulness, ultimately leading to loss of consciousness.
