Ghrelin alone or co-administered with GHRH or CRH increases non-REM sleep and decreases REM sleep in young males
2008, PsychoneuroendocrinologyCitation Excerpt :The order of the treatment conditions was chosen at random. Hormone doses were chosen considering previous studies showing a biological action (e.g. increase of hormones, sleep effects) but no relevant side effects (Holsboer et al., 1988; Steiger et al., 1994; Weikel et al., 2003). Hormones were administered in a pulsatile manner in order to optimize effects on sleep (Marshall et al., 1996).
Depressive disorders - Is it time to endorse different pathophysiologies?

2001, Biological PsychologyCitation Excerpt :A marked REM sleep suppression has also been reported for the MAO-inhibitors phenelzine, tranylcypromine, and brofaromine (Akindele et al., 1970; Hoff et al., 1986; Steiger et al., 1987). REM sleep suppression is less pronounced with the selective and reversible MAO-A inhibitor moclobemide (Steiger et al., 1994). Exceptions to this rule are trimipramine (Dunleavy et al., 1972; Wiegand et al., 1986) and trazodone (Ware and Pittard, 1990), where no REM sleep suppression seems to occur.
