A heteromeric nicotinic acetylcholine receptor promotes sleep by relaying GABAergic signals within a locus of motor and sensory integration

2024-10-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Locomotor inactivity and reduced sensory responsiveness are defining attributes of sleep, yet the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. In particular, the molecular and circuit mechanisms by which sleep-regulatory signals from the brain restrict movement and sensation remain largely ill-defined. Here we identify a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) that promotes sleep in Drosophil...
