Neurobiological Mechanisms Involved in Sleep Bruxism

TL;DR: The final section of this review proposes that RMMA during sleep has a role in lubricating the upper alimentary tract and increasing airway patency.

Dual electroencephalogram markers of human sleep homeostasis: correlation between theta activity in waking and slow-wave activity in sleep.

TL;DR: It is suggested that theta activity in waking and slow-wave activity in sleep are markers of a common homeostatic sleep process.

Pharmacogenetics of Antidepressant Medication Intolerance

TL;DR: Pharmacodynamic differences among patients due to variant 5-HT(2A) receptors appear to be more important than pharmacokinetic variation in determining paroxetine intolerance and pharmacogenetic markers may be useful in predicting antidepressant treatment outcome.

Regulation and functional correlates of slow wave sleep.

TL;DR: Some of the characteristics of slow wave sleep, how it is measured and regulated, as well as the contribution of SWS to sleep propensity and sleep maintenance are summarized.

Thalamocortical oscillations in the sleeping and aroused brain

TL;DR: Analysis of cortical and thalamic networks at many levels, from molecules to single neurons to large neuronal assemblies, with a variety of techniques, is beginning to yield insights into the mechanisms of the generation, modulation, and function of brain oscillations.

SLEEP AND AROUSAL: Thalamocortical Mechanisms

TL;DR: The release of several different neurotransmitters from the brain stem, hypothalamus, basal forebrain, and cerebral cortex results in a depolarization of thalamocortical and thalamic reticular neurons and an enhanced excitability in many cortical pyramidal cells, thereby suppressing the generation of sleep rhythms and promoting a state that is conducive to sensory processing and cognition.
