Here we propose that the complex micro-architecture characterizing sleep on scales of seconds and minutes results from intrinsic non-equilibrium critical dynamics. We investigate θ- and δ-wave dynamics in control rats and in rats where the sleep-promoting ventrolateral preoptic nucleus (VLPO) is lesioned (male Sprague-Dawley rats). We demonstrate that bursts in θ and δ cortical rhythms exhibit complex temporal organization, with long-range correlations and robust duality of power-law (θ-bursts, active phase) and exponential-like (δ-bursts, quiescent phase) duration distributions, features typical of non-equilibrium systems self-organizing at criticality. We show that such non-equilibrium behavior relates to anti-correlated coupling between θ- and δ-bursts, persists across a range of time scales, and is independent of the dominant physiologic state; indications of a basic principle in sleep regulation. Further, we find that VLPO lesions lead to a modulation of cortical dynamics resulting in altered dynamical parameters of θ- and δ-bursts and significant reduction in θ–δ coupling. Our empirical findings and model simulations demonstrate that θ–δ coupling is essential for the emerging non-equilibrium critical dynamics observed across the sleep–wake cycle, and indicate that VLPO neurons may have dual role for both sleep and arousal/brief wake activation. The uncovered critical behavior in sleep- and wake-related cortical rhythms indicates a mechanism essential for the micro-architecture of spontaneous sleep-stage and arousal transitions within a novel, non-homeostatic paradigm of sleep regulation.","lang":"eng"}],"pmid":1,"ec_funded":1,"date_published":"2020-01-02T00:00:00Z","oa_version":"Published Version","type":"journal_article","file":[{"success":1,"access_level":"open_access","file_id":"8150","content_type":"application/pdf","relation":"main_file","file_name":"2020_JournNeuroscience_Lombardi.pdf","creator":"dernst","date_updated":"2020-07-22T11:44:48Z","file_size":6646046,"date_created":"2020-07-22T11:44:48Z"}],"article_type":"original","publisher":"Society for Neuroscience","page":"171-190","issue":"1","day":"02","project":[{"grant_number":"754411","_id":"260C2330-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","name":"ISTplus - Postdoctoral Fellowships","call_identifier":"H2020"}],"intvolume":" 40","file_date_updated":"2020-07-22T11:44:48Z","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1529-2401"],"issn":["0270-6474"]},"date_created":"2020-07-05T15:24:51Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_processing_charge":"No","title":"Critical dynamics and coupling in bursts of cortical rhythms indicate non-homeostatic mechanism for sleep-stage transitions and dual role of VLPO neurons in both sleep and wake"}
