The effect of alpha-2 adrenergic receptors on memory retention deficit induced by rapid eye movement sleep deprivation

Objective(s): Evidence shows that sleep deprivation (SD) disrupts the formation of hippocampus-related memories. Moreover, α2 adrenergic receptors that are wildly expressed in the CA1 hippocampal region have a significant role in modulating both sleep and memory formation. In the present research, w...
