This study identifies EHMT1/G9a's role in sleep regulation through ROS homeostasis in insulin-producing cells, linking it to sleep disturbances in Kleefstra syndrome and common insomnia.

The paper examines sex differences in sleep EEG patterns among children with and without neurodevelopmental disorders, finding significant sex-based variations in sleep features but not in brain age predictions.

The paper analyzes sleep data from 1527 pediatric PSGs across five sites to study neurodevelopmental disorders, identifying sleep architecture disruptions in Down Syndrome and developing a sleep stager and brain age prediction model.

The paper identifies extensive isoform diversity in the developing human neocortex and links it to neuropsychiatric disorder risk mechanisms.

This study investigates how intrinsic maturation of sleep output neurons influences sleep ontogeny in Drosophila, finding that juvenile and mature sleep differ in transition probabilities and molecular regulation.

The paper identifies pathogenic variants in SMARCA5 as a cause of a neurodevelopmental syndrome with mild facial dysmorphia and developmental delay.

The paper identifies ISWI as a chromatin remodeler required for adult sleep in Drosophila, with distinct developmental roles in sleep and other behaviors.

This study identifies pdm3 as a gene critical for sleep maturation in Drosophila by coordinating dopaminergic neurite ingrowth and regulating synaptogenesis.
