Research Abstract |
Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a childhood psychiatric disorder characterized by the presence of symptoms in three domains: inattention, impulsivity, and motor overactivity. On the other hand, there are evidences to suggest children in the ADHD group had shorter duration of REM sleep and total sleep duration than control. We have previously shown that abnormal behaviors elicited by intermittent sleep deprivation (SD) treatment may fulfill a hyperactive feature of ADHD model animals. In this study, we investigated the influences of the SD treatment on the Y-maze test and the elevated plus maze test, indicating an effect on inattentive and impulsive features of ADHD model animals, respectively. We found that both tests were influenced by SD treatment. Moreover, the impaired behaviors were significantly attenuated by methylphenidate, which is used clinically to treat ADHD symptoms. Therefore, the SD mice can be useful model for elucidation of the mechanism of ADHD.
