Paradoxical sleep deprivation: neurochemical, hormonal and behavioral alterations. Evidence from 30 years of research
Sleep comprises approximately one-third of a person's lifetime, but its impact on health and medical conditions remains partially unrecognized. The prevalence of sleep disorders is increasing in modern societies, with significant repercussions on people's well-being. This article reviews past and current literature on the paradoxical sleep deprivation method as well as data on its consequences to animals, ranging from behavioral changes to alterations in the gene expression. More specifically, we highlight relevant experimental studies and our group's contribution over the last three decades.<br>O sono ocupa cerca de um terço de nossas vidas, entretanto seu impacto na saĂșde e sua influĂȘncia nas condiçÔes patolĂłgicas ainda nĂŁo foi completamente elucidado. A prevalĂȘncia dos distĂșrbios de sono Ă© cada vez maior, sobretudo nas regiĂ”es mais industrializadas, repercutindo diretamente no bem-estar da população. Este artigo tem como objetivo sintetizar e atualizar a literatura a respeito do mĂ©todo de privação de sono paradoxal e seu panorama de conseqĂŒĂȘncias desde comportamentais atĂ© genĂ©ticas em animais. Ainda, destacamos a contribuição e relevĂąncia dos estudos experimentais realizados por nosso grupo nas ultimas trĂȘs dĂ©cadas
