Abstract Study Objectives The amount of recovery sleep needed to fully restore well-established neurobehavioral deficits from sleep loss remains unknown, as does whether the recovery pattern differs across measures after total sleep deprivation (TSD) and chronic sleep restriction (SR). Methods In total, 83 adults received two baseline nights (10–12-hour time in bed [TIB]) followed by five 4-hour TIB SR nights or 36-hour TSD and four recovery nights (R1–R4; 12-hour TIB). Neurobehavioral tests were completed every 2 hours during wakefulness and a Maintenance of Wakefulness Test measured physiological sleepiness. Polysomnography was collected on B2, R1, and R4 nights. Results TSD and SR produced significant deficits in cognitive performance, increases in self-reported sleepiness and fatigue, decreases in vigor, and increases in physiological sleepiness. Neurobehavioral recovery from SR occurred after R1 and was maintained for all measures except Psychomotor Vigilance Test (PVT) lapses and response speed, which failed to completely recover. Neurobehavioral recovery from TSD occurred after R1 and was maintained for all cognitive and self-reported measures, except for vigor. After TSD and SR, R1 recovery sleep was longer and of higher efficiency and better quality than R4 recovery sleep. Conclusions PVT impairments from SR failed to reverse completely; by contrast, vigor did not recover after TSD; all other deficits were reversed after sleep loss. These results suggest that TSD and SR induce sustained, differential biological, physiological, and/or neural changes, which remarkably are not reversed with chronic, long-duration recovery sleep. Our findings have critical implications for the population at large and for military and health professionals.

Abstract Introduction Sleepiness is a behavioral marker of homeostatic sleep regulation and is related to several negative outcomes with interindividual variation, which may amount to central sleep mechanisms. However, there is a lack of evidence linking progressive sleep need and sleepiness with factors of individual variability, which could be tested by acute and chronic sleep deprivation. Thus, the study objective was to investigate the development of sleepiness in sleep deprived mice. Methods C57BL/6J male mice (n=340) were distributed in 5 sleep deprivation groups, 5 sleep rebound groups and 10 control groups. Animals underwent acute total sleep deprivation for 3, 6, 9 or 12 hours or chronic sleep deprivation for 6 hours for 5 consecutive days. Sleep rebound groups had the opportunity to sleep for 1, 2, 3, 4 hours after acute sleep deprivation or 24 hours after chronic sleep deprivation. During the protocol, sleep attempts were counted as a sleepiness index. After euthanasia, blood was collected for corticosterone assessment. Results Using the average group sleep attempts, it was possible to differentiate between sleepy (mean>group average) and resistant to sleepiness animals (mean<group average). Frequency of resistant mice was 65%, 56%, 56% and 53% for 3, 6, 9 and 12 hours of acute sleep deprivation, respectively, and 74% in chronic sleep deprivation. 52% of the sleepiness variance might be explained by individual variation during chronic sleep deprivation and 68% of sleepiness variance during acute sleep deprivation was attributed to extended wakefulness. A normal corticosterone zenith was observed at the start of the dark phase, independent of sleep deprivation. Conclusion Different degrees of sleepiness in sleep deprived mice were verified. Sleep deprivation per se was the main factor explaining sleepiness during acute sleep deprivation whereas in chronic deprivation individual variation was more relevant.

Abstract Study Objectives Aggregates of hyperphosphorylated tau protein are a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other tauopathies. Sleep disturbances are common in AD patients, and insufficient sleep may be a risk factor for AD. Recent evidence suggests that tau phosphorylation is dysregulated by sleep disturbances in mice. However, the physiological regulation of tau phosphorylation during the sleep–wake cycle is currently unknown. We thus aimed to determine whether tau phosphorylation is regulated by circadian rhythms, inherently linked to the sleep–wake cycle. Methods To answer these questions, we analyzed by Western blotting tau protein and associated kinases and phosphatases in the brains of awake, sleeping, and sleep-deprived B6 mice. We also recorded their temperature. Results We found that tau phosphorylation undergoes sleep-driven circadian variations as it is hyperphosphorylated during sleep but not during acute sleep deprivation. Moreover, we demonstrate that the mechanism behind these changes involves temperature, as tau phosphorylation was inversely correlated with circadian- and sleep deprivation-induced variations in body temperature, and prevented by housing the animals at a warmer temperature. Notably, similar changes in tau phosphorylation were reproduced in neuronal cells exposed to temperatures recorded during the sleep–wake cycle. Our results also suggest that inhibition of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) may explain the hyperphosphorylation of tau during sleep-induced hypothermia. Conclusion Taken together, our results demonstrate that tau phosphorylation follows a circadian rhythm driven mostly by body temperature and sleep, and provide the physiological basis for further understanding how sleep deregulation can affect tau and ultimately AD pathology.

An essential aspect of human health is sleep. Sleep, among others, interacts with the immune system, plays a role in restoring the body's energy, healing and brain function. Insomnia is often noticed in medical practice, is considered a public health problem. Acute sleep deprivation can alter cognitive performance, and chronic sleep deprivation can lead to disease development. Lack of sleep affects all major systems in the human body, and the major changes that occur in chronic insomnia have been associated with many conditions such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, asthma, thyroid disease and gastroesophageal reflux disease.

Recently, people pay less attention to their sleep since there are a lot of stimulants to keep them awake more than sleeping. According to many reports, the results have shown that many are facing a serious condition, which is sleeping disorder. This condition is related to sleep and affects the ability to sleep well on a regular basis. It is a serious problem that if left untreated, the condition can lead to many more severe problems. There is a significant correlation between sleeping disorder and depression which is called “bidirectional relationship”. The studies show that sleeping disorders are a “symptom” of almost all types of depression such as Major Depressive Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Seasonal Affective Disorder and so forth. On the other hand, depression itself can also be a cause of sleeping disorders. In addition, the studies show chronic sleep deprivation can cause the changes in Serotonin, which is the brain’s neurotransmitter, and will have a chance to lead to depression greater than acute sleep deprivation. As a result, people should raise awareness in sleeping and usually examine their sleep. To have less chance of depression, a person requires a healthy sleep period and effective care.

AbstractChronic sleep loss is a potent catabolic stressor, increasing the risk of metabolic dysfunction and loss of muscle mass and function. To provide mechanistic insight into these clinical outcomes, we sought to determine if acute sleep deprivation blunts skeletal muscle protein synthesis and promotes a catabolic environment. Healthy young adults (N=13; 7 male, 6 female) were subjected to one night of total sleep deprivation (DEP) and normal sleep (CON) in a randomized cross-over design. Anabolic and catabolic hormonal profiles, skeletal muscle fractional synthesis rate and markers of muscle protein degradation were assessed across the following day. Acute sleep deprivation reduced muscle protein synthesis by 18% (CON: 0.072 ± 0.015 vs. DEP: 0.059 ± 0.014 %•h-1, p=0.040). In addition, it increased plasma cortisol by 21% (p=0.030) and decreased plasma testosterone, but not IGF-1, by 22% (p=0.029). A single night of total sleep deprivation is sufficient to induce anabolic resistance and a pro-catabolic environment. These acute changes may represent mechanistic precursors driving the metabolic dysfunction and body composition changes associated with chronic sleep deprivation.
