3. Back to Kayser et al. 2014 Overview: figure titles collectively summarize the paper fairly well! Fig. 1: Reduced arousal and increased resistance to sleep deprivation in young flies Fig. 2: Reduced dopamine signaling underlies ontogenetic sleep changes Fig. 3: Hypoactivity of dFSB-projecting dopaminergic neurons in young flies Fig. 4: The sleep-promoting dFSB is more active in young flies Fig. 5: Sleep in young flies is required for courtship behaviors and circuitry development

17. Fig. S10. Model for dopaminergic developmental program underlying sleep ontogeny. (A) In mature adults, distinct populations of dopaminergic neurons contribute parallel sleep-wake pathways, some via dFSB. Separate MB signals also drive sleep. TH+ neurons also project to MB (gray), though not in a known sleep-relevant manner. (B) In young flies, dFSB-projecting TH neurons are less active, leading to increased dFSB activity and excess sleep.

18. Discussion section of Kayser et al. “Sudden infant death syndrome usually occurs early in infant life, and (along with environmental factors) abnormalities in sleep structure are arousal are thought to play a significant role (40, 41). We suggest that the dysfunction of specific molecular signals or circuits could underlie pathological sleep/wake imbalances during mammalian development.” “Many neuropsychiatric diseases are increasingly viewed as synaptic and developmental in origin (54), and sleep abnormalities are pervasive in psychiatric illness (55). Sleep during critical periods of development may therefore play an important role in diseases that manifest later in life.”
