Brain-wide effects of pontine waves across sleep stages
…movement (NREM) sleep features slow oscillations, delta waves, thalamocortical spindles and hippocampal sharp waves-ripples, while REM sleep is dominated by hippocampal theta oscillations and ponto-geniculo-occipital (PGO) waves, or pontine waves (“P-waves”) in rodents. Even though their origin from mesopontine cholinergic and glutamatergic nuclei is kn
