Research Abstract

We investigated the effects of melanin concentrating hormone (MCH) on sleep-wake cycle. Intraventricular (icv) injection of MCH decreased the waking episode time, whereas it increased the sleep episode time (REM & nonREM episode time). It has been reported that sleep is necessary for consolidation of memory with increasing the hippocampal acetylcholine (ACh). In the present study, icv injection of MCH increased the hippocampal ACh. There was a significant correlation between REM episode time and hippocampal ACh effluxes. Icv injection of MCH did not alter the cortical histamine release. These findings suggest that MCH may contribute to the consolidation of memory. Further experiment is necessary to explore whether the memory function of MCH may be involved in the anesthetic state.
