Tissue-specific circadian transcriptional regulation

Jake Yeung

Circadian rhythms in physiology and behavior evolved to resonate with daily cycles in the external environment. In mammals, organs orchestrate temporal physiology over the 24-hour day, which requires extensive gene expression rhythms targeted to the right ...

Molecular codes and in vitro generation of hypocretin and melanin concentrating hormone neurons

Sha Li, Hasan Pezeshgi Modarres, Cyril Mikhail

Hypocretin/orexin (HCRT) and melanin concentrating hormone (MCH) neuropeptides are exclusively produced by the lateral hypothalamus and play important roles in sleep, metabolism, reward, and motivation. Loss of HCRT (ligands or receptors) causes the sleep ...

Heart rate variability at bedtime predicts subsequent sleep features

Fiorenzo Artoni, Maria Paola Tramonti Fantozzi

Getting enough sleep during the night is important for preventing adverse short- and long-term health outcomes. The sympathetic-parasympathetic autonomic balance, characteristics of the pre-bed time resting period, correlates with sleep efficiency. We inve ...

Analysis of U-Shape Patterns in RR-Interval Time Series During Sleep

Jean-Marc Vesin, Grégoire Millet, Sasan Yazdani, Alexandre Thierry Robert Cherqui

The proposed study investigates a phenomenon, defined as "U-patterns", that takes place in the RR-interval time series during sleep. These patterns are defined as a U-shaped decrease-increase in the RR-intervals, with a duration of 20 to 40 seconds with a ...

Can Daytime Napping Assist the Process of Skills Acquisition After Stroke?

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Winifried Backhaus

Acquisition and reacquisition of skills is a main pillar of functional recovery after stroke. Nighttime sleep has a positive influence on motor learning in healthy individuals, whereas the effect of daytime sleep on neuro-rehabilitative training and relear ...

Families with no s pairwise disjoint sets

Andrei Kupavskii

For integers n >= s >= 2 let e (n, s) denote the maximum of vertical bar F vertical bar, where F is a family of subsets of an n- element set and F contains no s pairwise disjoint members. Half a century ago, solving a conjecture of Erd. os, Kleitman determ ...
