Sodium diclofenac inhibits hyperthermia induced by paradoxical sleep deprivation (PSD), which suggests the participation of prostaglandins. The temperature of paradoxical sleep-deprived rats increased from the first to the fourth day of deprivation. This hyperthermia was blocked on the second,
OBJECTIVE
Hyperthermia is a characteristic functional effect of sleep deprivation (SD). We hypothesize here that prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) could be involved in hyperthermia induced by sleep deprivation.
METHODS
To address this issue we examined the effects of a selective cyclo-oxygenase-2 inhibitor
Eight hours total sleep deprivation does not affect colonic temperature. The combination of a subpyrogenic challenge of sheep red blood cells with sleep loss however, can produce a significant rise in colonic temperature that peaks during the third hour of the sleep deprivation vigil. The regulation
To investigate the relationship between thermoregulation and sleep regulation, rats were sleep-deprived for 3 hours at two different ambient temperatures. Sleep deprivations (SD) were performed at 23 degrees C (SD-23) and at 32 degrees C (SD-32) in the beginning of the 12-h light period in animals
Previous reports suggest that the hypothalamic growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) promotes sleep, especially non-rapid-eye-movement sleep (NREMS). To evaluate the role of endogenous GHRH in sleep regulation, the effects of antibodies to rat GHRH (GHRH-ab) were studied on normal sleep, brain
Using electrophysiological methods, the effects of total sleep deprivation on thermoregulatory characteristics of the febrile reaction (brain temperature, peripheral vasomotor reaction, contractile activity of the pectoral muscle), the process of rehabilitation of somatic functions, and temporal
OBJECTIVE
Sleep deprivation is a risk factor for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Recent changes in normal life routines were more common among SIDS victims, compared with control infants. Sleep deprivation can result from handling conditions or from sleep fragmentation attributable to
Narcolepsy with cataplexy is a rare, but important differential diagnosis for daytime sleepiness and atonic paroxysms in an adolescent. A recent increase in incidence in the pediatric age group probably linked to the use of the Pandemrix influenza vaccine in 2009, has increased awareness that
Paradoxical sleep deprivation (PSD) induces changes in behaviors induced by dopaminergic and cholinergic agonists, including increased aggressive behavior and stereotypy, decreased number of yawns, and shedding of bloody tears in male rats. In female rats, however, very little is known about the
Total sleep deprivation (TSD) is associated with endothelial dysfunction and a consequent decrease in vascular reactivity and increase in peripheral vascular resistance. These effectors compromise the body's ability to thermoregulate in hot and cold stress conditions. We investigated
Prolonged rapid eye movement sleep deprivation (REMSD) causes hypothermia and death; however, the effect of deprivation within 24 h and its mechanism(s) of action were unknown. Based on existing reports we argued that REMSD should, at least initially, induce hyperthermia and the death upon prolonged
Common perceptions that the desire for sleep is increased during mild infectious diseases like colds and 'the flu' have fostered beliefs that sleep promotes recovery from infectious disease and that lack of sleep increases susceptibility to infections. However, until recently, the relationship
Sleep is restorative, whereas reduced sleep leads to negative health outcomes, such as increased susceptibility to disease. Sleep deprivation tends to attenuate inflammatory responses triggered by infection or exposure to endotoxin, such as bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Previous studies have
Sleep deprivation is a major health problem in modern society. Deprivation of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is particularly damaging to cognition and to spatial memory; however, the mechanisms that mediate these deteriorations in function are not known. We explored the possibility that REM sleep
To evaluate the impact of sleep deprivation (SD) on microbially induced alterations in sleep, we used gentle handling to deprive rabbits of sleep for 4 h before or after intravenous inoculation with Escherichia coli (EC). Sleep was monitored for the next 20 h. EC inoculation alone increased
