Table 1.
Effects of optogenetic stimulation (0 versus 10Hz) of astrocytes on number and length (seconds) of bouts of wake, NREM and REM sleep in wildtype mice (n=7). The data represents average (+ SEM) number and length of bouts during the 6h stimulation period (first half of lights-off period).
| Number of Bouts | Length of Bouts (Seconds) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 Hz | 10 Hz | 0 Hz | 10 Hz | |
| Wake | 19.36 (3.72) |
33.86* (2.29) |
989.96 (196.2) |
399* (45.5) |
| NREM | 19.07 (3.16) |
34.29* (2.8) |
315.89 (27.8) |
244* (20.37) |
| REM | 4.14 (0.59) |
8.43 (2.17) |
