Dangers of sleeping, and not sleeping enough, in war
Few behaviors are as dangerous as sleep [1]. While awake, the senses send information to the brain for processing to elicit a behavioral response. While asleep, the links in the neurological chain of information processing break so sleep functions...

The eyes have it: pupillary assessment as a measure of sleep and circadian health
In our 24-hour environment, daily light exposure from the rising and setting of the sun has long been recognized as a key time cue or zeitgeber in the regulation of circadian rhythms. Artificial light exposure at inappropriate circadian times can ...

Sleep homeostatic and circadian clock changes can be obtained by manipulating one single kinase, but do the two processes meet each other there?
Sleep is a behavior that is widespread among the animal kingdom [1]. Animals are found inactive at specific times at specific sites and in specific postures with reduced responses to stimuli. An additional feature is that it is homeostatically reg...

Pupillometric and perceptual approaches provide independent estimates of melanopsin activity in humans
AbstractStudy ObjectivesMelanopsin-expressing retinal ganglion cells, which provide light information to time sleep and entrain circadian clocks, also influence perceived brightness raising the possibility that psychophysical paradigms could be us...

Partial activation of salt-inducible kinase 3 delays the onset of wakefulness and alleviates hypersomnia due to the lack of protein kinase A-phosphorylation site
AbstractStudy ObjectivesSleep/wakefulness is regulated by intracellular signaling pathways composed of protein kinases such as salt-inducible kinase 3 (Sik3). Sik3-deficiency in neurons decreases nonrapid eye movement (NREM) sleep time and electro...
