Due to the lack of sleep the brain itself!

in #news7 years ago

A recent study suggests that if the lack of sleep is too much, the brain itself will eat itself. This means that cells that destroy the cells of brain cells become more active.

There is no sleeping option to keep the brain active - we know it. The harmful substances stored throughout the day are clean when we are asleep. The brain can function properly after sleeping in it.

A part of this work to keep the brain clean is the microglia cell, which cleanses the waste of the nervous system, tired and dead cells. Another type of cell, Astrosite works together with the brain. One of the many jobs in it is to truncate the unnecessary synapses of the brain.

The study, published in the neuroscience journal, examined four groups of rats. The first team is allowed to sleep as usual. The second group was raised in a timely manner. The third party was kept awake for an additional eight hours. And the fourth party is kept alive for five days.

AstroSite was active in the brain of resting sleeping mice, which was 6 percent in the sink. Astrosighting was active in 8-percent sleepy eight-hour sleepy samurai. Astrosite was active in 13.5 percent of the sineaps in the sleeping mice for 5 days. It means that due to lack of sleep the astrosite cells became more active.

Neuroscientist Michael Bellacey of this research said, "We lacked some parts of the senapasses, and we have been able to show it for the first time," Astrophysite, Astrocyte. But they did not make sure that the process was beneficial or worse during the shortage of sleep.

But the problem that worries me more is the microglia activities. They are active due to excessive sleep deficiency. And its activity can cause Alzheimer's and other brain-related disorders.

Researchers wrote that "excessive sleep defines microglia cells and encourages their phagocytic (eating cell waste), without any major signs of neuroinflamation. This implies that the lack of sleep for a long time affects microglia and makes the brain sensitive to other problems. "

The most complex organs, the brain is constantly developing itself, being strong and going through the breakdown. This is an infinite process, where some structures break down and something new is created. More research on this can be understood from the fact that the activity of this astrosite and microglia really influences the brain. But not enough sleep until it is safe enough to sleep.

I shall read this to my kids when they refuse to go to sleep.

Thank you for the wonderful post..
