| ==== Physiology ====
| |
| The underlying physiology of sleep and wakefulness is complex. Different Neurons and Neurotransmitters promote different states of sleep and wakefulness. They are therefore categorised based on state-specific [[Discharge Patterns|discharge patterns]] and/or [[Transmitter Release|transmitter release]] and other neurobiological classifications.
| |
| | |
| ===== State-Specific Discharge Patterns: =====
| |
| Neurons are classifiable based on their discharge-pattern. During each behavioral state, there are neurons that fire at a higher rate as others. More specifically:
| |
| | |
| * Wake-On (/Rem-Off)
| |
| * Wake-On/ Rem-On
| |
| * Rem-On
| |
| * NRem-On
| |
| | |
| ===== State-Specific Transmitter Secretion =====
| |
| In neurobiology, neurons are also classified by their state-specific transmitter release.
| |
| | |
| | |
| Monoamines (here: serotonin, norepinephrine, histamine): Densest release during wakefulness.
| |
| | |
| Acetylcholine: Densest release during both wakefulness and Rem-sleep
| |
| | |
| GABA ( γ-aminobutyric acid): Densest release during NREM-sleep.
| |
| | |
| ===== Summarizing Neurotransmitters regulating the Behavioral States: =====
| |
| | |
| ====== Wakefulness ======
| |
| Acetylcholine, Serotonin, Norepinephrine, Histamine, Dopamine, Orexins, Glutamate (,GABA)
| |
| | |
| ====== NREM ======
| |
| GABA, Adenosine
| |
| | |
| ====== REM ======
| |
| Acetylcholine, GABA
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| The neurotransmitter GABA has brain region specific effects on behavioral states.
| |
| | |
| GABA in the [[pontine reticular formation]] promotes sleep and decreases sleep, by inhibiting the secretion of acetylcholine, which promotes Rem-sleep.
| |
| | |
| However, neurons activated by GABA in the basal forebrain fire the fastest during NRem-sleep, and is NRem promoting.
| |
| | |
| Adenosine, the other major neurotransmitter involved in the onset of NRem-sleep, increases proportional to the time spent awake in the basal forebrain. It is the neurotransmitter thouoght to be the major regulator of Process S in the 2-Process Model of Sleep.

Everyman 2, or E2, is a highly popular schedule in the Everyman line. It consists of 2 naps and a core sleep of 4.5h (3 full cycles) by default.[1]
