[PMID: 38609030 DOI: 10.1016/j.brainres.2024.148916] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2024] [Revised: 03/31/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression is defined by a persistent low mood and disruptions in sleep patterns, with the WHO forecasting that major depression will rank as the third most prevalent contributor to the global burden of disease by the year 2030. Sleep deprivation serves as a stressor that triggers inflammation within the central nervous system, a process known as neuroinflammation. This inflammatory response plays a crucial role in the development of depression by upregulating the expression of inflammatory mediators that contribute to symptoms such as anxiety, hopelessness, and loss of pleasure. METHODS In this study, sleep deprivation was utilized as a method to induce anxiety and depressive-like behaviors in mice. The behavioral changes in the mice were then evaluated using the EZM, EPM, TST, FST, and SPT. H&E staining and Nissl staining was used to detect morphological changes in the medial prefrontal cortical (mPFC) regions. Elisa to assess serum CORT levels. Detection of mRNA levels and protein expression of clock genes, high mobility genome box-1 (Hmgb1), silent message regulator 6 (Sirt6), and pro-inflammatory factors by RT-qPCR, Western blotting, and immunofluorescence techniques. RESULTS Sleep deprivation resulted in decreased exploration of unfamiliar territory, increased time spent in a state of despair, and lower sucrose water intake in mice. Additionally, sleep deprivation led to increased secretion of serum CORT and upregulation of clock genes, IL6, IL1β, TNFα, Cox-2, iNOS, Sirt6, and Hmgb1. Sleep. CONCLUSIONS Sleep deprivation induces anxiety-depressive-like behaviors and neuroinflammation in the brain. Transcription of clock genes and activation of the Sirt6/Hmgb1 pathway may contribute to inflammatory responses in the mPFC.

Sleep rebound leads to marked recovery of prolonged sleep deprivation-induced adversities in the stress response and hippocampal neuroplasticity of male rats. J Affect Disord 2024; 355:478-486. [PMID: 38574868 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2024.04.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2023] [Revised: 03/26/2024] [Accepted: 04/01/2024] [Indexed: 04/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep disturbances are not only frequent symptoms, but also risk factors for major depressive disorder. We previously reported that depressed patients who experienced "Hypersomnia" showed a higher and more rapid response rate under paroxetine treatment, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. The present study was conducted to clarify the beneficial effects of sleep rebound through an experimental "Hypersomnia" rat model on glucocorticoid and hippocampal neuroplasticity associated with antidepressive potency. METHODS Thirty-four male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to sham treatment, 72-h sleep deprivation, or sleep deprivation and subsequent follow-up for one week. Approximately half of the animals were sacrificed to evaluate adrenal weight, plasma corticosterone level, hippocampal content of mRNA isoforms, and protein of the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (Bdnf) gene. In the other half of the rats, Ki-67- and doublecortin (DCX)-positive cells in the hippocampus were counted via immunostaining to quantify adult neurogenesis. RESULTS Prolonged sleep deprivation led to adrenal hypertrophy and an increase in the plasma corticosterone level, which had returned to normal after one week follow-up. Of note, sleep deprivation-induced decreases in hippocampal Bdnf transcripts containing exons II, IV, VI, and IX and BDNF protein levels, Ki-67-(+)-proliferating cells, and DCX-(+)-newly-born neurons were not merely reversed, but overshot their normal levels with sleep rebound. LIMITATIONS The present study did not record electroencephalogram or assess behavioral changes of the sleep-deprived rats. CONCLUSIONS The present study demonstrated that prolonged sleep deprivation-induced adversities are reversed or recovered by sleep rebound, which supports "Hypersomnia" in depressed patients as having a beneficial pharmacological effect.

Abstract
Sleep deprivation is a common problem during pregnancy, but its impact on the fetus remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the effect of sleep deprivation during pregnancy on fetal outcomes and its mechanism in Sprague-Dawley rats. Sleep deprivation was performed from gestational day(GD) 1-19 using a multiplatform method for 18 h/day. Rats were sacrificed on GD20, and their blood and placentas were collected. Fetal and placental parameters were ascertained. Melatonin, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and corticosterone were also measured in serum. The levels of arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase (AANAT) and two melatonin receptors MT1 and MT2, in placental tissues were detected by western blotting. The inflammatory status and oxidative stress in serum and placentas were investigated. Miscarriage and intrauterine growth restriction were observed in the sleep deprivation group. Sleep deprivation resulted in an increased fetal absorption rate, while fetal weight, crown-rump length and placental weight were reduced. Placental histopathology showed that the labyrinth ratio in the sleep deprivation group was significantly reduced, with hypoplastic villi and obviously decreased blood vessels. Sleep deprivation decreased melatonin in serum and the expression of AANAT, MT1 and MT2 in placental tissues, elevated the oxidative stress products 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and malondialdehyde(MDA) in serum and 4-hydroxynonenal (4HNE) in the placenta, and decreased the antioxidants superoxide dismutase (SOD) and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) in serum. Serum proinflammatory cytokines including interleukin-1-beta (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), necrotizing factor-alpha (TNF-α), and interleukin-8(IL-8), were all elevated by sleep deprivation, and the inflammatory regulatory factor nuclear factor-κB p65 (NF-κB p65) in the placenta was enhanced when examined by immunohistochemistry. Corticosterone levels were comparable between the two groups, although ACTH levels were elevated significantly in the sleep deprivation group. Our study revealed that sleep deprivation during pregnancy can adversely impact fetal outcomes. Melatonin may play an important role in this pathology through the oxido-inflammatory process.

Neurosci Biobehav Rev 2023; 155:105433.

Abstract
Ample sleep is an important basis for maintaining health, however with the pace of life accelerating in modern society, more people are using sacrificial sleep to cope with these social changes. Sleep deprivation can have negative effects on cognitive performance and psychosomatic health. It is well known that exercise, as a beneficial intervention strategy for human health, has been increasingly used in the clinic. But it's not clear if it can prevent the negative effects of sleep deprivation. In this meta-analysis, we reviewed 23 articles from PubMed and Web of Science to investigate whether moderate physical exercise can prevent the negative effects of sleep deprivation in rodents. Our findings suggest that exercise can prevent sleep deprivation-induced cognitive impairment and anxiety-like behaviors through multiple pathways. We also discuss possible molecular mechanisms involved in this protective effect, highlighting the potential of exercise as a preventive or therapeutic strategy for sleep deprivation-induced negative effects.
