The purpose of the present study was to investigate the response to novelty in Roman high- and low-avoidance rats under non-stressful conditions. To reduce fear, a procedure of repetitive placing in the experimental chamber consisting of start, screen, and tunnel zones was applied. Each animal was placed in the experimental chamber daily for a 6min period. The first 11 sessions were the habituation sessions. In the 12th session, the novelty was introduced into the screen and tunnel zones. The subsequent two sessions were conducted under novelty conditions. Behavioral activities such as walking, object contacts, time spent in given zones, and entering the tunnels were measured. All the comparisons were made for two 3-min intervals, using a three-factor MANOVA, involving 2(sex)x2(subline)x8(3-mininterval). All subjects increased time spent in the tunnel zone, but RHA/Verh rats responded to a greater extent, especially the males. All subjects spent shorter times in the screen zone, but the RHA/Verh rats responded to a much greater extent. RHA/Verh rats, especially males responded with a substantial increase of time spent inside the tunnels. All subjects responded with an increased amount of object contacts. In general the RHA/Verh subjects showed a more pronounced response to novelty, as evidenced by a significant shift toward the tunnel zone. They spent more time in this zone than their RLA/Verh counterparts. Among the RLA/Verh rats, males tended to behave similarly to RHA/Verh rats, especially during the second 3min interval of session "12." The differences between the rat lines obtained in this study may be attributed to mechanisms specific to exploration, making them promising subjects to study the relationships between reactivity, novelty detection, adaptation, and environmental information processing. 相似文献

Various brain regions of male RHA/Verh and RLA/Verh rats were dissected out and deep-frozen immediately after 30 min in a shuttle box involving a) no shock (control), b) 40 inescapable shocks or c) 40 avoidable shocks. The RHA/Verh rats used in the "c" category exhibited about 80-85% learned avoidance. 5-HT, 5-HIAA, NA, MHPG-SO4, DA, DOPAC and HVA levels were subsequently measured in selected regions. NA levels were considerably reduced in the hypothalamus and pons/medulla of both selected lines of rats after acute shock stress, supporting the results of numerous studies which have indicated that NA turnover is nonspecifically increased by all types of stress, at least in those regions. An increase in cortical MHPG-SO4 and a reduction in hypothalamic 5-HT seen after avoidance learning also occurred after shock stress in RHA/Verh rats. Whereas RLA/Verh rats showed an increased metabolism of 5-HT in the hypothalamus and pons/medulla after shock stress, RHA/Verh rats showed the opposite response in the hypothalamus after the same treatment. A reduction in 5-HT metabolism was also evident in RHA/Verh rats, after avoidance learning, in the cortex, hippocampus and hypothalamus. These results indicated, pending further studies regarding, for example, possible genetic differences in tryptophan uptake and utilization, that 5-HT probably plays at least a modulatory role in the reaction to stress, and in avoidance behavior. That role may be either active or passive, depending upon the emotional status of the subjects. In regard to the DA responses measured in striatum and hypothalamus of the two rat lines, some divergent inter-treatment tendencies, as well as some similarities, were seen in DA metabolism in both regions, but almost none of the differences were significant. 相似文献

Ozone (O3) produces significant effects on sleep, characterized specially by a decrease in paradoxical sleep (PS) and increase in slow-wave sleep (SWS), which in turn represent a sleep-wake cycle disruption. On the other hand, neuronal activity recorded in the cholinoceptive hypothalamic medial preoptic area (MPO) has been involved in the regulation of sleep. However, there is no direct evidence on the role that acetylcholine (Ach) release in the MPO plays in the sleep-wake cycle. In order to study this relation, we measured the Ach concentration in dialysates collected from MPO in rats exposed to coal-filtered air (clean air) for 48 h and in rats exposed to clean air for 24 h followed by 24-h of O3 exposure to 0.5 ppm. Polygraphic sleep records were taken simultaneously to neurochemical sampling. O3 was employed to disrupt the sleep-wake cycle and relate these changes with concomitant disruptions in Ach concentration dialyzed from MPO. A clear circadian pattern of Ach concentration was observed in dialysates from MPO and also in PS, SWS and wakefulness of rats exposed to filtered air. However, O3 exposure decreased the PS by 65% (Mann-Whitney's U-test, p相似文献

In eleven genetically hypoprolactinemic rats (IPL nude rats) and five control rats (OFA), the sleep-waking cycle was continuously registered for 14 days at two ambient temperatures. At 23 degrees C, the slow wave sleep (SWS) duration of IPL rats was significantly higher (+6.8%, t = 5.4, p less than 0.001) than that of control rats, while the paradoxical sleep (PS) duration was lowered by 31.8% (t = 9.4, p less than 0.001). The circadian rhythm of PS disappeared while that of SWS persisted unchanged. At 30 degrees C, both sleep durations reached the level of control rats. The circadian rhythm of PS was however completely reversed: the PS acrophase was at 01 h while that of SWS was at 12 hrs. This first observation of spontaneous dissociation of the two states of sleep supports the hypothesis of two distinct circadian clocks, one for SWS, another for PS. It is suggested that hypothalamic prolactin and/or other still unknown genetic alterations might be responsible for the observed change in the PS circadian rhythm. 相似文献

Voltammetric measurements of nitric oxide (NO) were performed either in the frontal cortex (Cx) or in the nucleus raphe dorsalis (nRD) of rats equipped for polygraphic recordings. In the frontal cortex, the 650 mV signal related to NO exhibited its highest height during the waking state (W) and decreased slightly during slow-wave sleep (SWS) and even more during paradoxical sleep (PS). In the nRD, opposite variations were observed, i.e. the signal tended towards an increase during SWS and raised more consistently during PS versus W. Recordings performed either in the Cx or the nRD, throughout the light (12-h) and dark (12-h) periods, exhibited opposite nycthemeral changes, i.e. the signal height was higher in the Cx and lower in the nRD during the dark period and conversely for the light one. Paracrine and synaptic mechanisms taking place within the pons and, at least partly, also reflected in the Cx need to be further investigated. 相似文献

Light-to-dark transitions have been found to enhance paradoxical sleep (PS) in albino rats but not pigmented rats. Furthermore, PS inducing effect of dark pulses in albino rats depends on sleep states. This study examined whether the relationship between PS and preceding non-rapid-eye-movement sleep (NREMS) in pigmented Brown Norway rats was different from that in albino F344 rats and whether such a difference was associated with different responses to dark pulses in the two rat strains. Both rat strains showed a positive relationship between PS and preceding NREMS. However, only the albino F344 rats exhibited the PS inducing effect of dark pulses. Dark pulses did not alter the relationship between PS and preceding NREMS in either rat strain, and, reciprocally, nor did duration of preceding NREMS affect dark pulse-induced PS enhancement. Furthermore, this study verified that dark pulses given during NREMS in albino F344 rats specifically induced the suppression of NREMS concomitant with the enhancement of PS. This study proposed that dark pulses might inhibit NREMS and facilitate PS regulating areas concurrently in albino rats. 相似文献

Summary Sleep and wake states were monitored polygraphically in the rookCorvus frugilegus, under the natural photoperiod and temperature. The indices of sleep and wake states in the rook were similar to those described previously for birds in general. The appearance of sleep episodes was confined to the dark part of the photoperiod. Slow wave sleep (SWS) showed a tendency to increase during the course of the night, while paradoxical sleep (PS) showed the opposite trend. The distribution of short SWS episodes were clustered into two groups, one group occurred in the period following the onset of sleep and the other, less prominent group occurred towards the end of sleep. The longest episodes of SWS appeared in the second half of the night, whereas those of PS appeared after onset of sleep.Abbreviations

In the rat, alpha-Methyldopa (alpha-MD, 50 mg/kg i.p.) induced during 8 hrs. an important reduction of paradoxical sleep (PS) and an increase of light slow waves sleep (SWS1). These effects were reversed by intraventricular infusion of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from PS-deprived donor rats, and PS restauration depended directly on the duration of the deprivation in the donor. It is probable that hypnogenic substances accumulate in the CSF during PS-deprivation, and that these factors can by-pass the noradrenergic step in the chain of biochemical events normally leading to the appearance of PS. 相似文献

Dihydroergotoxine methane sulphonate (DHET 1.0 mg/kg i.p.) was administered to cats deprived of paradoxical sleep (PS) for 72 h and 23 h of recovery sleep were recorded. During the first 12 h of recovery sleep slow-wave sleep (SWS) was significantly increased. There were no significant changes in the amounts of wakefulness (W), PS and several sleep indices. Analysis of the entire 23 h of recording period revealed no significant changes in any of the parameters studied. The results suggest that DHET has SWS enhancing property in the condition where "pressure" for PS was increased. 相似文献

Paradoxical (REM) sleep genesis: the switch from an aminergic-cholinergic to a GABAergic-glutamatergic hypothesis. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

In the middle of the last century, Michel Jouvet discovered paradoxical sleep (PS), a sleep phase paradoxically characterized by cortical activation and rapid eye movements and a muscle atonia. Soon after, he showed that it was still present in "pontine cats" in which all structures rostral to the brainstem have been removed. Later on, it was demonstrated that the pontine peri-locus coeruleus alpha (peri-LCalpha in cats, corresponding to the sublaterodorsal nucleus, SLD, in rats) is responsible for PS onset. It was then proposed that the onset and maintenance of PS is due to a reciprocal inhibitory interaction between neurons presumably cholinergic specifically active during PS localized in this region and monoaminergic neurons. In the last decade, we have tested this hypothesis with our model of head-restrained rats and functional neuroanatomical studies. Our results confirmed that the SLD in rats contains the neurons responsible for the onset and maintenance of PS. They further indicate that (1) these neurons are non-cholinergic possibly glutamatergic neurons, (2) they directly project to the glycinergic premotoneurons localized in the medullary ventral gigantocellular reticular nucleus (GiV), (3) the main neurotransmitter responsible for their inhibition during waking (W) and slow wave sleep (SWS) is GABA rather than monoamines, (4) they are constantly and tonically excited by glutamate and (5) the GABAergic neurons responsible for their tonic inhibition during W and SWS are localized in the deep mesencephalic reticular nucleus (DPMe). We also showed that the tonic inhibition of locus coeruleus (LC) noradrenergic and dorsal raphe (DRN) serotonergic neurons during sleep is due to a tonic GABAergic inhibition by neurons localized in the dorsal paragigantocellular reticular nucleus (DPGi) and the ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (vlPAG). We propose that these GABAergic neurons also inhibit the GABAergic neurons of the DPMe at the onset and during PS and are therefore responsible for the onset and maintenance of PS. 相似文献

Electroacupuncture (EAc) possesses a broad therapeutic effect, including improvement of sleep disturbances. The mechanism of sleep improvement with EAc, however, is still unclear. The present study investigated the effects of EAc stimulation of Anmian (extra) acupoints on sleep organization and the implication of an active structure, the caudal nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS). Rats were implanted with electroencephalogram (EEG) recording electrodes, and 32-gauge acupuncture needles were bilaterally inserted into Anmian (extra) acupoints in the rats, followed by electrical stimulation for 20 min. Twenty-three-hour continuous EEGs were then recorded. Results showed that rapid eye movement sleep (REMS) was enhanced during the dark period when a single EAc stimulation was given 25 min prior to the onset of the dark period. REMS and slow-wave sleep (SWS) increased during the dark period after administration of EAc stimuli on 2 consecutive days. Electrical stimulation of non-acupoints produced no change in the sleep pattern. Pharmacological blockade of muscarinic cholinergic receptors by systemic administration of scopolamine dose-dependently attenuated EAc-induced changes in REMS and SWS. Furthermore, electrical lesions in the bilateral caudal NTS produced significant blockade of EAc-induced sleep enhancement. However, in rats without EAc, scopolamine increased SWS during the dark period, but caudal NTS lesions did not alter sleep. In addition, neither EAc nor scopolamine with EAc manipulation produced any change in the slow-wave activity (SWA) during SWS; however, the SWA during SWS was significantly reduced after caudal NTS lesion with EAc. These results suggest that the caudal NTS may be involved in the regulation of EAc-induced sleep alterations. 相似文献

In the rook, Corvus frugilegus, electrographic and behavioural correlates of sleep and wakefulness have been determined under natural lighting conditions. Slow wave sleep (SWS) was characterized by high amplitude slow EEG activity, low neck EMG, and behavioural inactivity. Paradoxical sleep (PS) was characterized by low amplitude fast EEG activity and inconsistent decrease in EMG. PS episodes always commenced with head downward. Several eye movements occurred activity were present. The rook spent in sleep 31.8% of the 24-h period. PS however, eye movements, high tonic neck EMG activity, and behavioural activity were present. The rook spent in sleep 31.8% of the 24-h period. PS constituted 1.8% of total sleep, while the rest of total sleep was occupied by SWS. On the average, episodes of SWS and PS lasted 10.8 min and 24 s respectively. The daily percentage of SWS was highly correlated with the mean episode duration. PS amount was better correlated with the number of episodes than with their mean duration. Our data suggest that over-short period of recovery from surgery and adaptation with implanted electrodes could lead to underestimation of sleep duration in rook. 相似文献

Electrographic and behavioural observations were conducted on two male and two female captive starlings (Sturnus vulgaris) under natural illumination conditions during autumn. Polygraphically sleep and wakefulness of starling were similar to those of other birds. Starling's total sleep (TS) and slow wave sleep (SWS) lasted 39.0 +/- 1.4% and 38.3 +/- 1.7% of the 24-h period respectively. Paradoxical sleep (PS) was 1.8 +/- 0.2% of the total sleep time. The mean durations individual of TS, SWS and PS episodes were 6.8 +/- 0.2 min, 5.0 +/- 1.0 min and 18 +/- 3 s respectively. The daily percentage of SWS was correlated with the mean episode duration while that of PS was correlated with the number of episodes rather than with the mean episode duration. Starling females spent in sleep a greater percentage of the 24-h period than males. 相似文献

This study investigated the role of the circadian phase in modulating the effect of short light-dark cycles (LDc) on sleep and wakefulness. Six male albino rats of the Sprague-Dawley strain were implanted with electrodes for standard electrophysiological recordings performed during baseline (12 - 12 h LDc), short LDc treatment, and recovery (12 - 12 h LDc) for 4 days each. In the short LDc treatment, 15 - 15 min LDc were applied, respectively, in mid-periods of inactive and active phases to maintain an entrained circadian rhythm. The results showed that the 15 - 15 min LD ratio of both non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREM) and paradoxical sleep (PS) did not vary with the circadian phase. In contrast, changes in both the NREM and PS amounts in the short LDc treatment varied with the circadian phase. It is argued in the Discussion section that the circadian phase-related changes in the sleep amount did not result from the circadian rhythm effect but from the interactions between the habitual 24 h lighting schedule and the habitual LD distribution of the sleep and wakefulness amounts. On the other hand, this study found that both waking (W) and PS response to short LDc varied with time courses. The 15 min dark period strongly enhanced the W time only when it occurred for the first time in the inactive phase while it consistently facilitated PS across the remaining time periods in both the active and inactive phases. Furthermore, a residual effect of short LDc on PS was revealed in this study. Compared to the baseline, the 12 - 12 h LD ratio of PS was significantly decreased during recovery compared to the short LDc treatment. 相似文献

The present study evaluated the hypothesis that developmental changes in hypothalamic sleep-regulatory neuronal circuits contribute to the maturation of sleep homeostasis in rats during the fourth postnatal week. In a longitudinal study, we quantified electrographic measures of sleep during baseline and in response to sleep deprivation (SD) on postnatal days 21/29 (P21/29) and P22/30 (experiment 1). During 24-h baseline recordings on P21, total sleep time (TST) during the light and dark phases did not differ significantly. On P29, TST during the light phase was significantly higher than during the dark phase. Mean duration of non-rapid-eye-movement (NREM) sleep bouts was significantly longer on P29 vs. P21, indicating improved sleep consolidation. On both P22 and P30, rats exhibited increased NREM sleep amounts and NREM electroencephalogram delta power during recovery sleep (RS) compared with baseline. Increased NREM sleep bout length during RS was observed only on P30. In experiment 2, we quantified activity of GABAergic neurons in median preoptic nucleus (MnPN) and ventrolateral preoptic area (VLPO) during SD and RS in separate groups of P22 and P30 rats using c-Fos and glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) immunohistochemistry. In P22 rats, numbers of Fos(+)GAD(+) neurons in VLPO did not differ among experimental conditions. In P30 rats, Fos(+)GAD(+) counts in VLPO were elevated during RS. MnPN neuronal activity was state-dependent in P22 rats, but Fos(+)GAD(+) cell counts were higher in P30 rats. These findings support the hypothesis that functional emergence of preoptic sleep-regulatory neurons contributes to the maturation of sleep homeostasis in the developing rat brain. 相似文献

The intratissular injection of ibotenic acid into the ventrolateral part of the posterior hypothalamus induced a dramatic biphasic and transient hypersomnia immediately after disappearance of the anaesthesia (14 to 24 hrs. after injection). The duration of hypersomnia was related to the dose of neurotoxin injected. Its first period was characterized by an increase in paradoxical sleep (PS) (300%). Then, during the second phase, PS disappeared and there was a subsequent increase of slow wave sleep (SWS) (60%). Finally, on the third day, all cats recovered control level of PS and SWS. 相似文献

To assess to what extent auditory sensory deprivation affects biological rhythmicity, sleep/wakefulness cycle and 24 h rhythm in locomotor activity were examined in golden hamsters after bilateral cochlear lesion. An increase in total sleep time as well as a decrease in wakefulness (W) were associated to an augmented number of W episodes, as well as of slow wave sleep (SWS) and paradoxical sleep (PS) episodes in deaf hamsters. The number of episodes of the three behavioural states and the percent duration of W and SWS increased significantly during the light phase of daily photoperiod only. Lower amplitudes of locomotor activity rhythm and a different phase angle as far as light off were found in deaf hamsters kept either under light-dark photoperiod or in constant darkness. Period of locomotor activity remained unchanged after cochlear lesions. The results indicate that auditory deprivation disturbs photic synchronization of rhythms with little effect on the clock timing mechanism itself. 相似文献

Sleep-enhancing effects of far-infrared radiation in rats 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Unrestrained male rats continuously exposed to far-infrared radiation exhibited a significant increase in slow wave sleep (SWS) during the light period but not in the dark period. The change was largely due to the elevated occurrence of SWS episodes but not to the prolongation of their duration. Paradoxical sleep was not affected throughout the observation period except for a significant decrease at the end of the dark period. Thus the far-infrared radiation exerted a sleep modulatory effect closely related to the circadian activity-rest cycle. 相似文献
