The Leptomeninges Produce Prostaglandin D(2) Involved in Sleep Regulation in Mice

Injection of nanomolar amounts of prostaglandin D(2) (PGD(2)) into the rat brain has dose and time-dependent somnogenic effects, and the PGD(2)-induced sleep is indistinguishable from physiologic sleep. Sleep-inducing PGD(2) is produced in the brain by lipocalin-type PGD(2) synthase (LPGDS). Three p...
