Data indicate that the SLD nuclei contain a population of neurons playing a key role in PS onset and maintenance, and suggest that GABAergic disinhibition and glutamate excitation of these neurons might also play a crucial role in the onset of PS.

It is proposed that the reciprocal inhibitory interaction of such VLPO neurons with the noradrenergic, serotoninergic and cholinergic waking systems to which they project is a key factor for promoting sleep.

The origin of the GABAergic and non‐GABAergic inputs to the SLD are determined combining ejection of a retrograde tracer with glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) immunohistochemistry and the presence of GAD‐immunoreactive neurons in the S LD was confirmed.
Localization of the Brainstem GABAergic Neurons Controlling Paradoxical (REM) Sleep
This work shows that GABAergic neurons gating PS (PS-off neurons) are principally located in the ventrolateral periaqueductal gray and the dorsal part of the deep mesencephalic reticular nucleus immediately ventral to it (dDpMe), and proposes a revised model for PS control in which GABAergic PS-on and PS- off neurons localized in the vlPAG/dDPMe region play leading roles.

Current understanding of how genetic, environmental and immune-related factors contribute to a prominent orexin signalling deficiency in patients with NT1 are focused on, along with uncertainties concerning the ‘narcoleptic borderland’, including narcolepsy type 2 (NT2).

The results indicate that MCH is a powerful hypnogenic factor and might play a key role in the state of PS via their widespread projections in the central nervous system.
