CAROTID SINUS AND AORTIC REFLEXES IN THE REGULATION OF CIRCULATION DURING SLEEP.

In the cat with intact sinoaortic reflexes, episodes of deep sleep are accompanied by marked falls in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure. The falls are much larger after bilateral sino-aortic deafferentation: to such low pressures during deep sleep that episodes of transient cerebral ischemia (electroencephalographic flattening and seizures) sometimes occur.

Electroencephalographic desynchronization during deep sleep after destruction of midbrain-limbic pathways in the cat.

Lesions which interrupt the ascending limb of the midbrain-limbic circuit in the cat at different levels, or which even destroy it completely, do not prevent electroencephalographic desynchronization at the beginning of periods of deep sleep, nor do they affect the maintenance of desynchronization throughout the sleep episodes. The pontine mechanisms responsible for these electroencephalographic patterns can apparently exert their influence through ascending pathways other than those directly impinging on the hypothalamus and the limbic system.
