Brainstem and spinal cord circuitry regulating REM sleep and muscle atonia.

Brainstem and spinal cord circuitry regulating REM sleep and muscle atonia.

Previous work has suggested, but not demonstrated directly, a critical role for both glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons of the pontine tegmentum in the regulation of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep.To determine the in vivo roles of these fast-acting neurotransmitters in putative REM pontine circuits...
