The wake- and sleep-modulating neurons of the lateral hypothalamic area demonstrate a differential pattern of degeneration in Alzheimer’s disease
2024-03-12
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Sleep-wake dysfunction is an early and common event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) regulates the sleep and wake cycle through wake-promoting orexinergic neurons (Orx N ) and sleep-promoting melanin-concentrating hormone or MCHergic neurons (MCH N ). These neurons share close anatomical proximity with functional reciprocity. This study investigated LHA Orx N...
