Effects of circadian phase and duration of sleep deprivation on sleep and EEG power spectra in the cat.
Brain Research 1991 May 11
The electroencephalogram (EEG) of cats was recorded under baseline conditions (LD 12:12) and after 4 and 8 h of sleep deprivation (SD). The EEG was analyzed by visual scoring and by spectral analysis. Under baseline conditions the 24-h distribution of sleep was bimodal: the smallest amounts of sleep occurred at the light-dark and dark-light transitions. EEG slow-wave activity (power density in the delta frequency range: 0.5-4.0 Hz) in non-rapid-eye-movement sleep (NREMS) showed a small variation over the 24-h period. When recovery sleep, following 4 h and 8 h of SD, started at the beginning of the dark period, no significant rebound of NREMS and REMS occurred during the 24-h recovery period. When recovery sleep, after 4 h of SD, started at the fifth hour of the light period, the amount of NREMS was increased. In all experiments the EEG power density in NREMS was enhanced after SD in the entire frequency range studied (0.5-31.5 Hz), but more prominently in the delta and theta (4.5-7.0 Hz) frequency bands. The effects dissipated in the course of the recovery period. The magnitude and duration of the enhancements of EEG power densities were dependent on the duration of SD and on the circadian phase at which SD was scheduled. It is concluded that in the cat sleep is a function of both circadian and homeostatic processes and that especially the EEG power density in NREMS is highly responsive to sleep loss.
