1. Sleep deprivation is commonly associated with feelings of fatigue and cognitive impairment. 2. Patients with depressive illness, however, often experience mood improvements under these same conditions. 3. Other studies now show that tremor and rigidity, in patients with Parkinson's disease, are also improved by sleep depression therapy. 4. The neural substrates which underlie these effects are unclear. Some recent evidence, however, suggests that sleep deprivation may activate mechanisms which are otherwise typical of conditions of metabolic stress. 5. A common feature of these mechanisms is the suppression of cholinergic activity which is thought to be excessive, in relation to monoamine transmission, in both depression and Parkinson's disease.
