Reticularis thalami neurons revisited: activity changes during shifts in states of vigilance

TL;DR: Spontaneous discharge rates almost doubled in RE neurons on arousal from sleep, and the probability of cortically evoked short-latency discharges increased, which suggests that RE neurons are depolarized throughout spindle oscillations, whereas thalamocortical neurons show, simultaneously, long hyperpolarizations and short rebounds.

Neuronal Activity During the Sleep-Waking Cycle

TL;DR: The reciprocal interaction hypothesis of desynchronized sleep control finds independent confirmation in a vast array of pharmacological data on sleep.

The ventro-basal complex of the thalamus: types of cells, their responses and their functional organization.

TL;DR: It is concluded that virtually all VBC cells belong to a single uniform class, which is characterized by the fidelity of response to rapid repetitive stimulation of afferent nerves, there being on the average frequency following up to 100-120 sec.
