Control of Wake and Sleep States George Bokinsky, MD Brown, Ritchie E. et al “Control of Sleep and Wakefulness” Physiol. Rev. 2012;92:1087-1187. Electrographic Signs of Wakefulness • Low voltage fast activity (LVFA) are summed synaptic currents from apical dendrites of pyramidal neurons • Beta (15-30Hz) and Gamma (30-120 Hz) rhythms • Alpha rhythms (8-14 Hz) • Theta rhythms (4-8 Hz) Brain Stem Reticular and Basal Forebrain Activating Systems • Dual systems ultimately projecting to the neocortex via intermediate connections • Dorsal pathway of the ARAS • Ventral pathway of the ARAS • Default cortical network. Dorsal and Ventral Pathways of Ascending Reticular Activating System Dorsal Ascending Reticular Activating System • • • • Initial Components: Glutamatergic neurons in midbrain, pons, and medullary reticular formations. Cholinergic neurons in pedunculopontine and latero-dorsal tegmental nuclei (PPT/LDT). Intermediate Connections: Non-specific thalamic nuclei leading to fast cortical rhythms. Sensory relay neurons in thalamus. Brain stem cholinergic neurons also innervate dopaminergic and GABA-ergic neurons of midbrain ventral tegmental. Final destinations: neocortex as a whole as LVFA EEG, sensory cortex as local short responses, nucleus accumbens and pre-frontal cortex. P.S.: Changes in reticular and thalamic function preceed changes in cortical EEG in humans during anaesthesia and sleep. Thalamic lesions may not affect cortical activation. Ventral Ascending Reticular Activating System • • • • • Initial Components: Glutamatergic neurons of parabrachial nucleus (PB), Noradrenergic neurons from Locus Coeruleus (LC), Serotonergic neurons from dorsal and medial raphe (DR), and Dopaminergic periaqueductal gray (PAG) neurons. Intermediate Connections: Glutamatergic, Histaminergic, and Orexinergic neurons of posterior/lateral hypothamamus → Caudal basal forebrain (BF) cholinergic, GABA-ergic, and glutamatergic neurons, and, finally, Neocortex with a branch to the rostral BF theta rhythm generator. P.S. Large lesions of parabrachial (PB) nucleus which supplies brain stem glutamatergic input to BF lead to coma. Direct input to neocortex and nonspecific thalamic nuclei also arise from brain stem noradrenergic and serotoninergic neurons along with hypothalamic histaminergic and orexinergic neurons. Default Network • • • • Anatomically interconnected regions of the anterior and posterior midline, lateral parietal cortex, prefrontal cortex, and temporal lobe. Active when meditating and not responding to external environment. External stimulation leads to decreases in activity in these areas. Why does two branches of the ARAS exist? Dorsal branch may be more attuned to sensory input of non-visual nature while the ventral branch passes close to the hub for visual and light input. Orexin/Hypocretin • • • • • • • Originates in lateral hypothalamus with strongest projection to LC. Orexin consolidates wakefulness, suppresses REM sleep, and enhances wakefulness during periods of starvation. Feeding increases glucose, leptin and neuro-peptide Y inhibiting orexin while fasting leads to activation of Orexin neurons. Orexin levels peak in latter third of the day and remain increased during four hours of extended wakefulness. Orexin neurons decrease firing during quiet wake state, and cease firing during sleep except during micro-arousals. Orexin agonists increase wake while Orexin receptor antagonists increase both NREM and REM sleep. Orexin may stimulate histamine system. Low CSF histamine in narcolepsy. Orexin Circuits Orexin Norepinephrine Histamine Serotinin Acetylcholine Dopamine Acetylcholine Projections to spinal motoneurons Nature Reviews Neuroscience 2007;8:171181 Glutamate • • • • 90% of glutamatergic projections are found in thalamic relay neurons innervating cortex (layers III and IV). Other glutamatergic neurons are in BF, claustrum, VTA, laterodorsal tegmentum, and hypothalamus also project to cortex. Glutamate transporters are expressed in cortically projecting orexin and serotonin neurons. Glutamate is major neurotransmitter released from rostral midbrain and brainstem reticular formation neurons projecting to the thalamus. At onset of conscious states (wake and REM sleep) thalamic relay neurons are excited by acetylcholine, norepinephrine, and histamine leading to a switch from synchronized bursts of NREM to tonic firing able to transmit sensory information to cortex. Roles for Wake Promoting Neurotransmitters • • • • • • • • Facilitation of LVFA: Acetylcholine, Glutamate Inhibition of sleep-active neurons: Norepinephrine, Serotonin, Acetylcholine Maintenance of motor tone while awake: Norepinephrine Consolidation of wake periods: Orexin Maintenance of wake in novel environments: Histamine Enhanced arousal to rewarding stimuli: Dopamine, Acetylcholine Enhanced arousal to adversive stimuli: Norepinephrine, Serotonin, Histamine Consolidation of memories through synaptic plasticity: Acetylcholine, Nor- epinephrine, Serotonin, Histamine, Dopamine, Orexins Wake Promoting Modulatory System LH (strongest projection to LC) DRN* BF *Wake-on NREM ↓ REM-off TMN* LC* Non-REM Sleep • Electrographic signs of NREM sleep • Generation and maintenance of NREM sleep • NREM sleep homeostasis • Functional aspects of NREM sleep • Synthesis • • • • • Generated in thalamic GABA-ergic reticular and perigeniculate nuclei. NREM EEG Spindles (7-15of cerebral Hz) cortex being Spindles are present even in absence recorded in thalamus and disappear with large thalamic reticular lesions. Spindles occur when aminergic input is slowly withdrawn during early NREM sleep leading to bursts of action potentials in reticular neurons. This leads to excitatory potential in cortical neurons signaled as spindles. Spindles are inhibited during wakefulness and REM sleep by tonic firing of thalamic reticular neurons This switches to burst firing in NREM. Tonic firing is induced by NE and Serotonin released from ascending projections of LC and DRN. Brainstem cholinergic and BF cholinergic and GABA-ergic input inhibits spindles. REM-on cholinergic neurons inhibit spindles. NREM EEG Delta (1-4 Hz) and Slow (<1 Hz) Oscillations • Cortical and thalamic delta and slow oscillations result from increased withdrawal of excitatory cholinergic and aminergic inputs leading to hyperpolarization of the membrane potential of pyramidal/thalamic relay neurons. • • • • Burst firing at delta frequency is an intrinsic membrane property of thalamo- cortical cells and potentiates intrinsic rhythms in these cell groups. Neocortical slow oscillation (0.5-1 Hz) cycles represent a moving wave beginning in prefrontal-orbital cortex and spreading posteriorally through all NREM stages and bind together spindles and delta waves. Slow oscillations is generated within cortex and strongly influences thalamus through CT projections. They consist of prolonged depolarizations associated with extracellular gamma activity (up) separated by prolonged hyperpolarizations (down states) when most cortical neurons are silent. Up State is caused by excitatory glutamatergic synaptic input. Generation and Maintenance of NREM Sleep Ventrolateral Pre-optic Nucleus (VLPO) • • • • Historical observation: Patients with influenza during 1918 pandemic exhibited insomnia and at autopsy had damages to pre-optic (PO) nucleus. Lesions of PO/BF in cats cause long-lasting insomnia. PO/BF contains a large number of neurons that utilize GABA and have a sleep-on and wake-off firing pattern. Many of these neurons are also temperature sensitive. Ventrolateral pre-optic nucleus (VLPO): Sleep active neurons contain GABA and galanin and project heavily to nuclei of ARAS especially the histaminergic TMN. Lesions of the VLPO decrease delta power and increase sleep disruption. Neurons are all inhibited by NE and ACH and most inhibited by serotonin. Neurons are excited indirectly by adenosine. VLPO neurons receive direct input from retina and indirect input from suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) via dorsomedial hypothalamus. Light. Generation and Maintenance of NREM Sleep Median Pre-optic Nucleus (MnPO) • • • Located just dorsal to the Third Ventricle and contains a large population of GABA-ergic sleep-active neurons which project to and inhibit wake promoting neurons of ARAS in peri-fornical lateral hypothalamus, DRN, and LC. MnPO neurons are active during sleep deprivation but mainly active during sleep. MnPO neurons increase activity in response to homeostatic sleep pressure. VLPO neurons may function to consolidate sleep and maintain sleep depth. Wake to NREM Sleep Transitions • • • • • Anterior hypothalamic sleep promoting area first proposed by Von Economo Core neurons of VLPO project heavily to wake-promoting histaminergic neurons of tuberomammillary nucleus (TMN) of posterior hypothalamus and to wake-promoting serotonin DRN neurons and norepinephrine LC neurons in brain stem. GABA and galanin inhibit TMN, DR, and LC neurons. Serotonin and nor- epinephrine inhibit most VLPO neurons. Mutually inhibitory interactions between VLPO and TMN/DRN/LC act as sleep/wake switch via feedback loop. Orexins stabilize wake state through strong stimulation of wakepromoting neurons. Sleep-promoting VLPO neurons have fast transitions around statechanges. Firing rate of BF wake-active neurons change more slowly. Physiol Rev. Vol 92. July 2012, p. 1113. Brown, R.E. “Control of Sleep and Wakefulness” Physiol Rev. 2012;92:1113. • • • • • Adenosine Rise in adenosine level in certain brain areas correlate with time awake. The caudal BF containing cortically projecting wake-active neurons is prime example. Adenosine is a by-product of metabolism of all cells. Glutamatergic stimulation of BF neurons leads to increase in extracellular adenosine. Adenosine may also originate from astrocytes in cortex. Adenosine dampens neuronal activity and promotes sleep via presynaptic inhibitory effects on excitatory glutamatergic neurons, wakeactive cholinergic neurons, and orexin neurons as well as on inhibititory GABA-ergic inputs to the sleep-active VLPO neurons. Prolonged sleep deprivation upregulates A₁ receptor messenger RNA and protein in BF and cortex. BF is critical site for adenosine effects through A₁ and A₂ receptors. Caffeine promotes wakefulness by blocking Adenosine A₂A receptors in shell region of nucleus accumbens. Nitric Oxide (NO) • • • • • Nitric oxide promotes NREM sleep. Formation: Neuronal NO synthase (nNOS) is highly expressed in BS cholinergic neurons, Endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) in blood vessels, and Inducible NO synthase (iNOS) increases with sleep deprivation. nNOS is highest in awake brain and causes rise in brain NO levels. Sleep active cortical interneurons also contain nNOS. Majority of cortical GABA-ergic interneurons that express nNOS also express Fos during recovery sleep following sleep deprivation. Fos expression parallels SWS. NO rises in early stages of sleep deprivation. NO produced by iNOS affects BF and causes sleep through release of adenosine, inhibition of neuronal activity, inhibition of adenosine kinase, and stimulation of co-release of ATP which is degraded to adenosine. Prostaglandin D₂ (PGD₂) • • • • PGD₂ meets all criteria for sleep promotion. Infusion of PGD₂ into Third Ventricle or pre-optic area (PO) of brain increases sleep in dose-dependent manner. Levels of PGD₂ in CSF increase with increased wake time. Effects of PGD₂ is mediated through the prostaglandin receptor 1 (DP₁R). Blocking receptor decreases sleep time. PGD₂ sleep effects occur at the level of leptomeninges and subarachnoid space. Expression of lipocalin-type prostaglandin synthase (L-PGDS) and DP₁R is mainly observed in rostroventral SAS near BF. L-PGDS and PD₁R expression is co-localized with cells producing adenosine. Synthesis of PGD₂ is upregulated in CSF of African sleeping sickness and is also increased in CSF of patients with OSA. Cytokines Interleukin-1 (IL-1) and Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha • • • • • • IL-1 and TNF-∝: Administration of either leads to NREM sleep. IL-1 causes fatigue and sleepiness in humans. Endogenous brain and plasma levels of IL-1 and TNF alpha increase with increased sleep propensity. Plasma levels of IL-1 peak at sleep onset in humans. Messenger RNA (mRNA) levels increase with sleep deprivation. Sleep effects are mediated through IL-1 type receptor and TNF-55kDa receptor. TNF-alpha inhibits expression of clock genes. Extracellular ATP release associated with neurotransmitter release during waking prompts astrocytic production of IL-1 and TNF-alpha. Adminstration of IL-1 into DRN or LC induces sleep probably via 5HT-₂ receptor. TNF-alpha regulates sleep intensity and synaptic homeostasis. Slow Wave Sleep • • • In deep sleep, the activity of brain regions comprising the default network become de-coupled especially in frontal cortex. Local cortical differences in delta power during NREM sleep reflect the extent to which the cortical area was active during prior wake period as well as the wake period’s duration. This may reflect increased synaptic potentiation during waking. The increased energy consumption during waking is reflected in increased release of homeostatic sleep factors such as adenosine and the early NREM surge in ATP production. Synaptic plasticity is a major component of brain energy use. Cerebral metabolic rate (CMR) decreases 44% during sleep with 25% decrease in CMR of oxygen. NREM Sleep Summary • • • • Sleep induction is mediated by homeostatic factors adenosine and nitric oxide in BF and neocortex and by increased activity of median pro-optic nucleus GABA neurons that inhibit the wake-promoting neurons of ARAS. Circadian influences are mediated by direct retinal and indirect SCN projections to GABA-ergic sleep-promoting neurons in VLPO and other regions of pre-optic area and BF. Once sleep is induced, the silence of cortically-projecting wake-active neurons is maintained by increased firing of VLPO neurons and other preoptic/BF GABA neurons along with post-synaptic inhibition of ARAS neurons through activation of GABA and galanin. As ARAS excitatory influences are withdrawn, thalamic and cortical neurons become progressively hyperpolarized entering the range of membrane potentials conducive to rhythmic bursting giving the EEG signs of NREMS. REM Sleep • Electrographic signs of REM sleep • Muscle atonia and twitches • PGO waves and rapid eye movements • REM sleep control mechanisms • Relation of REM to dreams Pontine Generation of REM Sleep Phenomena Brown, R.E. “Control of Sleep and Wakefulness” Physiol Rev. 2012;92:1129. simultaneous with rapid eye movements. • • • • PGO waves are prominent in visual circuits of thalamocortical circuits suggesting a role in dream imagery. Ponto-geniculo-occipital Waves (PGO) LDT/PPT (acetylcholine)→LGN→Occipital Generalized activation of limbic, parahippocampal,Cortex and other thalamic pathways also noted phase-linked to REMs is seen on fMRI. PGO waves originate in LDT/PPT cholinergic neurons projecting to LGN. Subcoeruleus and parabrachial area (SubC/PB) fire synchronously with PGO waves by triggering bursts in cholinergic thalamic projecting neurons. Theta Oscillations PFR (Glutamatergic)→Basal forebrain (MS/vDB)→Hippocampus • • • Low-frequency theta (4-7 Hz) has been recorded in human hippocampus during sleep as short (1 sec) bursts not correlated with rapid eye movements. It was not seen in basal temporal lobe or frontal cortex in REM. The generation of theta rhythm begins in brain stem in region just dorsal to LC called the pre-coeruleus (PC). PC provides major glutamatergic input to the MS/vDB ( medial septum and vertical limb of diagonal band) and contains cells that are active during REM sleep. Cortical Activation Thalamus (HDB, SI, MCPO)→Cerebral Cortex • • • • • Activation-synthesis hypothesis of dream generation: During REM sleep, the brain is activated internally through the brain stem. Visual sensory system and vestibular system is activated through PGO activity. Motor activity during dreans is inhibited by atonia of REM sleep. Brain areas associated with emotional behavior and memory formation are activated during REM sleep including hippocampus and amygdala providing emotional content to the dream. PET and fMRI scans during REM sleep dreams show increased blood flow and oxygen consumption in pontine tegmentum, thalamus, amygdala, basal ganglia, anterior cingulate, and occipital cortex. Amygdala activation adds negative content such as fear and anxiety. Deactivation of frontal cortex may explain lack of insight, distortion of time, and inability to recall dreams on waking. Rapid Eye Movements PRF/MRF Saccade Generators→Colliculus • • • Tonic and Phasic Components to REM Eye Movements: Downward and convergent movement of both eyes due to relaxation of lateral rectus muscles and tonic contraction of medial rectus muscles in tonic phase. Phasic eye movements occurs in isolation or in bursts in phase with PGO waves. Paramedian reticular formation closely rostral and caudal to abducens motor nucleus is responsible for rapid eye movements. Pattern is due to inputs from both inhibitory and excitatory burst neurons. Muscle Atonia Subcoeruleus (SubC)→Bulbar ventral gigantocellular nucleus (GIV)→Spinal Cord • • • Inhibition on Motoneurons During REM Sleep: Somatic and spinal moto- neurons are hyperpolarized by inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (IPSP’s) and become resistant to excitatory inputs. Inhibitory neurotransmitters glycine and GABA are involved in this process. Disfacilitation of Excitatory Inputs During REM Sleep: Motoneurons receive excitatory input from brain stem norepinephrine and serotonin during waking depolarizing them and increasing excitatory sensitivity. LC nor- epinephrine shuts off during REM sleep and DRN neurons decrease firing during cataplexy. Muscle twitches are caused by phasic glutamatergic input. Descending Circuits Producing Muscle Atonia Pathway A During REM sleep descending subcoeruleus glutamatergic projections excite glycinergic neurons of bulbar reticular formation. medullary ventral gigantocellular nucleus GiV GABA-ergic/glycinergic output inhibits spinal motoneurons A B Pathway B Direct SubC glutamatergic projection to inhibitory interneurons of the ventral horn. Physiol Rev 92;2012:1126 Brain Stem Control of Atonia and Muscle Twitches • • • • • Small lesions of subcoeruleus abolish REM muscle atonia. More widespread lesions of reticular formation are rquired for expression of dreamlike activity. Selective inactivation of glutamatergic transmission of SubC and nearby LDT region reduced atonia and led to motor behavior during REM sleep. Neurons in SubC fire tonically just prior to and during muscle atonia of REM sleep. Application of cholinergic agents to SubC cause quickly a REM like state including atonia. REM Sleep Flip-flop Switch Proposal Orexin neurons are wake-active and act to switch into wake state. Orexin neurons reinforce the activity of arousal neurons. Orexin inputs to vlPAG-LPT prevent the onset of REM phenomena except in sleep. Absence of orexin activates sleep-on switch and REM phenomena during wake. Nature, 441:1 June 2006, 592. REM Sleep Flip-flop Switch Proposal Extended part of ventrolateral preoptic nucleus (eVPLO) contain REM-active neurons containing inhibitory neurotransmitters galanin and GABA. eVLPO projections inhibit the REM-off site in mesopontine septum at opening of fourth ventricle known as ventrolateral periaqueductal gray matter (vlPAG). vlPAG contains neurons that express the orexin 2 receptor. Complete lesions of either vlPAG or LPT doubles amount of REM sleep. LPT lesions increase REM during light period, SOREMP and cataplexy. Nature 441:1 June 2006, 592. REM Sleep Flip-flop Switch Proposal • • • Serotoninergic dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) activates REM-off neurons. Noradrenergic locus coeruleus (LC) neurons activates REM-off neurons. DRN-LC is not part of the mutually inhibitory flip-flop switch. Nature 441: 1 June 2006, 592. REM Sleep Flip-flop Switch Proposal • • • Pedunculopontine and laterodorsal tegmental (PPT-LDT) cholinergic neurons are REM-on and inhibit lateral pontine tegmentum (LPT). These neurons are not inhibited by LPT so are not part of switch. nNOS is located within PPT, LDT, and DRN. NOS knockout mice have less REM sleep. NO produced by nNOS in brainstem cholinergic neurons promotes REM sleep. Nature 441: 1 June 2006, 592 • • • • • Sublateral dorsal nucleus (SLD) in other species is subcoeruleus area or peri-locus coeruleus. The periventricular gray matter includes includes a dorsal extention of the SLD and precoeruleus (PC) area. SLD GABA-ergic REM-on neurons inhibit GABA-ergic REM-off neurons of the vl-PAG-LPT and vice versa. Lesions leading to 90% loss of SLD neurons fragment and diminish REM sleep. Motor tone preservation occurs even during EEG REM sleep. Lesions to both SLD and PC areas abolish REM sleep. GABA-ergic neurons in REM-on and REM-off regions are mutually inhibitory.

Forebrain Control of REM Sleep Timing • • • • Additional factors influencing timing of REM sleep: time of day, light exposure, temperature, nuitritional status, sleep homeostasis, stress, and emotional state. Orexin controls REM sleep: Orexin neurons receive direct input from SCN and indirect input via dorsomedial hypothalamus. Orexin neurons have a wake-on, REM-off pattern of firing. Orexin excites wake-active, REM-inhibiting serotoninergic DRN and noradrenergic LC neurons. Loss of orexin causes narcolepsy. Preoptic hypothalamus control of REM sleep: Preoptic area receives indirect projections from SCN via medial preoptic area and dorsomedial hypo- thalamus. Lesions of VLPO area of hypothalamus lead to loss of REM sleep. Diurnal variation of REM sleep: Orexin suppression during active period and eVLPO promotion during inactive period.
