Abstract:
:Recent investigations of rapid eye movement sleep (REMS) continuity have emphasized the importance of transitions both into and out of REMS. We have previously reported that, compared to Wistar rats (WIS), Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) responded to fear conditioning (FC) with more fragmented REMS. Gamma oscillations in the electroencephalogram (EEG) are synchronized throughout the brain in periods of focused attention, and such synchronization of cell assemblies in the brain may represent a temporal binding mechanism. Therefore, we examined the effects of FC on EEG gamma range activity (30-50Hz) at REMS transitions in WKY compared to WIS. Relative power in the gamma range (measured as a percent of total power) at Baseline and upon re-exposure to the fear-inducing conditioning stimulus was measured 35s before REMS onset to 105s after REMS onset (ARO) and 85s before REMS termination (BRT) to 35s after REMS termination. After baseline recording, rats received 10 tones, each co-terminating with an electric foot shock. On Days 1 and 14 post-conditioning, rats were re-exposed to three tones. Fast-Fourier transforms created power spectral data in the gamma frequency domain. Relative power was extracted from an average of 4-5 REMS transitions. Relative gamma power was always higher in WIS. On Day 14, at 15s and 25s ARO, WKY had significant increases in relative gamma power from Baseline. WIS had a significant increase on Day 1 at 25s ARO. Despite the increases in relative gamma power, WKY never achieved levels attained by WIS. Moreover, at 5s BRT, only WKY had a significant decrease in relative gamma power from Baseline to Day 14. Gamma range activity may indicate neural activity underlying maintenance of REMS continuity. Low relative gamma power at REMS transitions may be associated with increased REMS fragmentation in WKY after FC.
