Coordination of cortical and thalamic activity during non-rem sleep in humans

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Rachel A. Mak-McCully from the Department of Neurosciences, University of California, San Diego, California, Department of Radiology, University of California, San Diego have published the research: Coordination of cortical and thalamic activity during non-REM sleep in humans, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS of 25/05/2017
• what: The mechanisms whereby the thalamus and cortex interact in generating these sleep phenomena remain poorly understood. the authors report here a sequence wherein: convergent cortical downstates lead thalamic downstates; thalamic downstates hyperpolarize thalamic cells thus triggering spindles; and_(3) thalamic spindles are focally . . .
