This study shows that amyloid accumulation in medial septal cholinergic neurons of aging mice leads to REM sleep loss, cognitive and emotional deficits, and amyloid spread to other brain regions.

This study examines the neuroprotective effects of meloxicam in a rat transient ischemia model, showing increased axonal sprouting but reduced new neuron formation after 7 days of reperfusion.

This study shows that NMDA receptors in the hypothalamus are critical for stabilizing NREM sleep and enabling REM sleep by regulating calcium signals and neural activity.

The paper identifies a circuit pathway in mice where sleep-deprived prefrontal cortex neurons trigger nesting and sleep via connections to the preoptic and hypothalamus.
