A recent study published in the Journal of Proteome Research suggests that lack of sleep increases the risk of developing Alzheimer s disease. The study found that chronic sleep deprivation leads to a decline in a protective protein called pleiotrophin (PTN), which causes neuronal death. The researchers also discovered that PTN is linked to Alzheimer s disease and other neurological diseases.
