Contribution of Chronic Sleep Deprivation to Age-Related Neurodegeneration in a Mouse Model of Familial Alzheimer’s Disease (5xFAD)

Sleep–wake cycle disorders most often accompany the elderly and are frequently associated with the development of neurodegenerative processes, primarily Alzheimer’s disease. Sleep disturbances can be diagnosed in patients with AD even before the onset of memory and cognitive impairment, and become m...

description Sleep–wake cycle disorders most often accompany the elderly and are frequently associated with the development of neurodegenerative processes, primarily Alzheimer’s disease. Sleep disturbances can be diagnosed in patients with AD even before the onset of memory and cognitive impairment, and become more pronounced as the disease progresses. Therefore, the expansion of our knowledge of how sleep relates to AD pathogenesis needs to be addressed as soon as possible. Here, we investigated the influence of chronic sleep deprivation on the motor and orienting–exploratory activity of 5xFAD mice, as well as their spatial learning ability and long-term memory retention. The studies carried out revealed that chronic sleep deprivation negatively affects the processes of spatial memory reconsolidation in 5xFAD mice. This leads to the development of stress-related behavioral responses, including aggressive behavior. In addition, the morphological changes in the cerebral cortex, including changes in the nuclear–cytoplasmic ratio and degradation of neuronal processes are observed. Moreover, we found an increase in the level of total DNA methylation in the blood of the sleep-deprived mice, which may be one of the mechanisms of the two-way relationship between sleep and neurodegeneration.
