Interleukin-1
(IL-1
) is a well
characterized sleep regulatory substance. To study receptor mechanisms
for the sleep-promoting effects of IL-1
, sleep patterns were
determined in control and IL-1 type I receptor knockout (IL-1RI KO)
mice with a B6x129 background after intraperitoneal injections of
saline or murine recombinant IL-1
. The IL-1RI KO mice had slightly
but significantly less sleep during the dark period compared with the
controls. IL-1
dose dependently increased non-rapid eye movement
sleep (NREMS) and suppressed rapid eye movement sleep (REMS) in the
controls. The IL-1RI KO mice did not respond to IL-1
. In contrast,
the IL-1RI KO mice increased NREMS and decreased REMS after
administration of tumor necrosis factor-
(TNF-
), another well
characterized sleep-promoting substance. These results
1) provide further evidence that
IL-1
is involved in sleep regulation,
2) indicate that the effects of
IL-1
on sleep are mediated by the type I receptor, and
3) suggest that TNF-
is capable
of inducing sleep without the involvement of IL-1.
