New sleep deprivation study findings have been published by scientists at University of Lausanne
Published in Genetics and Environmental Law Weekly, March 29th, 2008
According to recent research published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, "Sleep is regulated by a homeostatic process that determines its need and by a circadian process that determines its timing. By using sleep deprivation and transcriptome profiling in inbred mouse strains, we show that genetic background affects susceptibility to sleep loss at the transcriptional level in a tissue-dependent manner."
"In the brain, Homer1a expression best reflects the response to sleep loss. Time-course gene expression analysis suggests that 2,032 brain transcripts are under circadian control. However, only 391...
