Neuronal chloride levels are developmentally regulated. Early in life, high intracellular concentrations support chloride efflux and depolarization at GABAergic synapses. In mouse, intracellular chloride decreases over the first postnatal week in the somatodendritic compartment, eventually supporting mature, hyperpolarizing GABAergic inhibition. In contrast to this dendritic switch, it is less clear...
Animal studies reveal that cytokines play a key role in the regulation of sleep. Alcoholic patients show profound alterations of sleep and a defect in the homeostatic recovery of sleep following sleep loss. In this study, we investigated whether nocturnal plasma levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF) were associated with disordered sleep in alcohol dependence by testing the...
Sleep disturbance is one of the most prominent complaints of alcohol-dependent patients. In view of recent evidence that the immune system is integrated with other homeostatic processes ultimately regulated by the brain, the influence of sleep on host defense mechanisms and the expression of proinflammatory and T helper cell cytokines deserves attention in alcohol dependence. Although not all immune...
