  • The basal forebrain (BF) is important for sleep-wake control. In this study, the authors performed cell type–specific recording and manipulation of four genetically defined BF cell types in freely moving mice and mapped their synaptic connections in slices, providing a BF circuit diagram for sleep-wake control.

  • Pontine waves are a hallmark of REM sleep. Here, the authors identify a distinct population of medullary neurons that constitute a hub in the REM sleep circuitry promoting REM sleep with an enhanced density of pontine waves.

  • Hong et al. show that activation of the medial prefrontal cortex induces REM sleep via its projections to the lateral hypothalamus, thus demonstrating a critical role of the cortex in the regulation of REM sleep.

  • The vlPAG in the midbrain is known to suppress REM sleep, but the precise neural correlates are not known. Here, the authors record the activity of vlPAG GABAergic neurons during the sleep–wake cycle and report fast changes at REM sleep transitions and slower changes that correlate with REM sleep pressure.
