It has been proposed that sleep's contribution to memory consolidation is to reactivate prior encoded information. To elucidate the neural mechanisms carrying reactivation-related mnemonic information, we investigated whether content-specific memory signatures associated with memory reactivation during wakefulness reoccur during subsequent sleep. We show that theta oscillations orchestrate the reactivation of memories during both wakefulness and sleep. Reactivation patterns during sleep autonomously re-emerged at a rate of ∼1 Hz, indicating a coordination by slow oscillatory activity.
有人提出,睡眠对记忆巩固的贡献是重新激活先前编码的信息。为了阐明与清醒时记忆再激活相关的记忆信息的神经机制,我们研究了与清醒时记忆再激活相关的特定内容的记忆特征是否会在随后的睡眠中再次出现。我们发现,θ 振荡协调了清醒和睡眠期间记忆的再激活。睡眠期间的再激活模式以约 1 Hz 的速率自主重新出现,表明由慢振荡活动进行协调。
