Researchers from New York University Abu Dhabi use animal model to study abnormal sleep patterns.
New research from New York University Abu Dhabi’s (NYUAD) Laboratory of Neural Systems and Behaviour for the first time used an animal model to demonstrate how abnormal sleep architecture can be a predictor of stress vulnerability.
These important findings have the potential to inform the development of sleep tests that can help identify who may be susceptible – or resilient – to future stress.
In the study, Abnormal Sleep Signals Vulnerability to Chronic Social Defeat Stress, which appears in the journal Frontiers in Neuroscience, NYUAD Assistant Professor of Biology Dipesh Chaudhury and Research Associate Basma Radwan describe their development of a mouse model to detect how disruptions in Non-rapid Eye Movement (NREM) sleep result in increased vulnerability to future stress.

(CN) Scientists say they have cracked the code between sleep and stress.
Using an animal model involving mice, researchers from NYU Abu Dhabi’s Laboratory of Neural Systems and Behavior claim to have demonstrated how abnormal sleep patterns can predict a person’s vulnerability to stress.
Published in the journal Frontiers in Neuroscience, the study by NYUAD assistant professor Dipesh Chaudhury and research associate Basma Radwan describes their utilization of a mouse model to demonstrate how disruptions in non-rapid eye movement sleep increases vulnerability to chronic stress.
The findings may potentially lead to sleep tests that identify susceptibility and resilience in humans, study authors say.
