Sleep Deprivation Increases Mortality in Female Mice Bearing Ehrlich Ascitic Tumor

Abstract: Objectives: Sleep deprivation is a growing public health hazard, yet it is still under-recognized. Sleep disorders and disruption of sleep patterns may compromise the immune function and adversely affect host resistance to infectious diseases. This is a particular risk in cancer patients, who report a high frequency of sleep disturbances. The present study investigated the effects of sleep deprivation on the development of Ehrlich ascitic tumors (EAT) in female BALB/c mice. Our study also evaluated whether EAT… Show more

“…A similar result associated with physical activity and SD was observed in mice that spontaneously formed polyps associated with the development of colorectal cancer [23]. Maragno-Correa et al [15] observed that mice inoculated with Ehrlich's tumor and deprived of sleep for 72 h using the multiple-platform method exhibited no change in tumor development, but did exhibit a reduction in survival rate.…”

“…Some experimental studies evaluated the effect of SD on tumor development. For example, Maragno-Correa et al [15] observed that mice inoculated with Ehrlich's tumor and deprived of sleep for 72 h (using the multiple-platform method) exhibited no change in tumor development, but did exhibit a reduction in survival rate. Hakim et al [16] demonstrated that sleep fragmentation, a condition observed in people who suffer from sleep apnea, enhances tumor size, and favors an increased number of tumor-associated macrophages which are known to produce suppressive factors and provide inhibitory signals to cells in the tumor microenvironment.…”

“…Lange et al () have shown that individuals who had regular sleep after vaccination against hepatitis A had antibody titers nearly twice as high as those with sleep restriction. Additionally, an increase in mortality and reduced CD4 + , CD8 + , and CD19 + cell numbers were observed in the spleen of female mice with Ehrlich tumors and SD (Maragno‐Correa et al, ). In this study, we observed a reduction in the population of lymphoid progenitors, and even after 24 h of recovery sleep after 72 h of SD, the decrease was maintained (Fig.…”

“…Several studies in the field of sleep have shown the importance of this behavioral state for the homeostasis of the immune system. SD can result in many losses concerning the bidirectional communication of the immune system with the nervous and endocrine systems (Lange et al, , ; Motivala, ; Reis et al, ), reduction in the weight of the lymphoid organs (Zager et al, ) and disruption of the homeostasis of immune cells (Zager et al, ; Guariniello et al, ; Lungato et al, ; Maragno‐Correa et al, ). In this study, it was found that the total populations of B lymphocytes in the spleen tissue were reduced after 72 h of SD (Fig.…”

“…Patients in the ICU also spend more time in non‐rapid eye movement sleep stages N1 and N2, which are thought to be less restorative than rapid eye movement or N3 sleep . While a direct correlation between sleep deprivation and mortality in humans has not been established, a mouse model of sleep deprivation has demonstrated increased mortality . Sleep deprivation may lead to a decrease in immune and neurocognitive function, increase in the “fight‐or‐flight” response, and decreased quality of life .…”
