Glia, Adenosine, and Sleep
Sleep is regulated by a homeostatic process that has long been thought to involve adenosine (AD) originating from neurons. In this issue of Neuron, Halassa et al. present evidence that sleep homeostasis depends upon gliotransmission and associated accumulation of AD that dampens neuronal excitability.
متن کاملAdenosine and Sleep
Over the last several decades the idea that adenosine (Ado) plays a role in sleep control was postulated due in large part to pharmacological studies that showed the ability of Ado agonists to induce sleep and Ado antagonists to decrease sleep. A second wave of research involving in vitro cellular analytic approaches and subsequently, the use of neurochemical tools such as microdialysis, identi...
متن کاملCorrelation between blood adenosine metabolism and sleep in humans.
Blood adenosine metabolism, including metabolites and metabolizing enzymes, was studied during the sleep period in human volunteers. Searching for significant correlations among biochemical parameters found: adenosine with state 1 of slow-wave sleep (SWS); activity of 5'-nucleotidase with state 2 of SWS; inosine and AMP with state 3-4 of SWS; and activity of 5'-nucleotidase and lactate with REM...

متن کاملA 2A adenosine receptor regulates glia proliferation and pain after peripheral nerve injury.
Peripheral nerve injury produces a persistent neuropathic pain state characterized by spontaneous pain, allodynia and hyperalgesia. In this study, we evaluated the possible involvement of A 2ARs in the development of neuropathic pain and the expression of microglia and astrocytes in the spinal cord after sciatic nerve injury. For this purpose, partial ligation of the sciatic nerve was performed...
