WHAT IS SLEEP: THE BIOCHEMISTRY OF SLEEP

The biochemistry of sleep is still to a large extent in the stage of experimentation and speculation. For this reason, we only wish to touch on this subject now. We still know relatively little about the topic, despite the fact that there is a great deal of interest in research on the subject, because of the extreme difficulty in obtaining and analyzing such rapidly occurring chemical events in such complicated structures as that of the central nervous system.

A series of substances that are important in transmitting impulses are already known, and these substances are involved in any event controlled by the nerves.

Acetylcholin, serotonin, and noradrenalin are several of these transmitter substances (neurohormones) involved in transmitting stimuli in the central nervous system. Serotonin seems to be of special importance for deep sleep. In any case, substances that impede the formation of serotonin in the organism result in sleeplessness in experiments, while noradrenalin seems to be more responsible for the REM phases of sleep. But these matters are to a large extent hypotheses that we do not wish to go into further at this point.
