In humans, sex differences are relatively well-established for many sleep phenotypes. However, precise differences in sleep phenotypes between male and female rodents are less documented. The main goal of this article is to review sex differences in sleep architecture and electroencephalographic (EEG) activity during wakefulness and sleep in rodents. The effects of acute sleep deprivation on sleep duration and EEG activity in male and female rodents will also be covered, in addition to sex differences in specific circadian phenotypes. When possible, the contribution of the female estrous cycle to the observed differences between males and females will be described. In general, male rodents spend more time in non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREMS) in comparison to females, while other differences between sexes in sleep phenotypes are species- and estrous cycle phase-dependent. Altogether, the review illustrates the need for a sex-based perspective in basic sleep and circadian research, including the consideration of sex chromosomes and gonadal hormones in sleep and circadian phenotypes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":37827,"journal":{"name":"Neurobiology of Sleep and Circadian Rhythms","volume":"11 ","pages":"Article 100068"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.nbscr.2021.100068","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39046237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We demonstrate that the striatum exhibits robust diurnal and circadian rhythms in MUA that peak in the night. These rhythms are dependent upon the central circadian clock located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) as lesions of this structure caused the loss of rhythmicity measured in the striatum. Nonetheless, chronic treatment of methamphetamine (METH) makes circadian rhythms appear in MUA recorded from the striatum of SCN-lesioned mice. These data demonstrate that the physiological properties of neurons in the dorsal striatum are regulated by the circadian system and that METH drives circadian rhythms in striatal physiology in the absence of the SCN.

Prior studies have investigated changes in the temporal profiles of circulating cytokines important for priming and restraining the immune response to infectious challenges from night shift work, but not by way of a 24-h constant routine of continuous wakefulness devoid of behavioral or environmental influences. Hence the true <strong><em>endogenous</em></strong> pattern of cytokines, and the combined effect of sleep loss and circadian misalignment on these cytokines remains unknown. Here, 14 healthy young men and women underwent three days of either a simulated night shift or a simulated day shift schedule under dim light in a controlled in-laboratory environment. This was followed by a 24-h constant routine protocol during which venous blood was collected at 3-h intervals. Those who had been in the night shift schedule showed lower mean circulating TNF-α (t₁₃ = -6.03, p &lt; 0.001), without any significant differences in IL-1β, IL-8 and IL-10, compared with those who had been in the day shift (i.e., control) schedule. Furthermore, circulating IL-6 increased with time awake in both shift work conditions (t₁₃ = 6.03, p &lt; 0.001), such that temporal changes in IL-6 were markedly shifted relative to circadian clock time in the night shift condition. These results indicate that night shift work compromises host defense by creating cytokine conditions that initially impede anti-viral immunity (lower TNF-α) and may eventually promote autoimmunity (mistimed rise in IL-6).</p></div>","PeriodicalId":37827,"journal":{"name":"Neurobiology of Sleep and Circadian Rhythms","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100063"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.nbscr.2021.100063","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"25502339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
