Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Although auditory evoked response (ABR) was considered to be insensitive to physiological sleep, we found that amplitude of the ABR increases during NREM sleep. In this study, effect of carbachol, which activates muscarinic receptor, on amplitude of the ABR was examined to show the role of acetylcholine in the sleep-wake state dependency of ABR amplitude. Amplitude of ABR wave IV was found to decrease just after the injection of carbachol into the lateral ventricle. Because acetylcholine concentration is high during wakefulness, these results suggest that acetylcholine plays a crucial role in the attenuation of ABR during wakefulness.
