To test the hypothesis of a possible role of the Panx1 (pannexin-1) mutation in changing the sleep - wake cycle.
Continuous 24 h recording of the EEG and movement activity in Panx1 knockout and wild type mice was performed.
A significant increase in wake percentage at the expense of a decrease in slow-wave sleep was found in knockout mice as compared to the control ones. The difference was especially pronounced during the 12-h dark period in the chamber. Also, an increase in the movement activity was clearly seen in knockout mice. The results are compared to a recent case-report of a Panx1 female patient with homozygote's mutation in this gene. The role of Panx1 protein in normal as well as pathological physiology is discussed.
验证Panx1(泛连接蛋白-1)突变在改变睡眠-觉醒周期中可能发挥作用的假说。
对Panx1基因敲除小鼠和野生型小鼠进行连续24小时的脑电图和运动活动记录。
与对照小鼠相比,基因敲除小鼠的觉醒百分比显著增加,慢波睡眠减少。这种差异在实验箱内12小时的黑暗期尤为明显。此外,基因敲除小鼠的运动活动也明显增加。将这些结果与最近一篇关于一名该基因纯合突变的Panx1女性患者的病例报告进行了比较。讨论了Panx1蛋白在正常及病理生理学中的作用。
