The impact of sleep disorders on glucose metabolism: endocrine and molecular mechanisms

Abstract: Modern lifestyle has profoundly modified human sleep habits. Sleep duration has shortened over recent decades from 8 to 6.5 hours resulting in chronic sleep deprivation. Additionally, irregular sleep, shift work and travelling across time zones lead to disruption of circadian rhythms and asynchrony between the master hypothalamic clock and pacemakers in peripheral tissues. Furthermore, obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSA), which affects 4 - 15% of the population, is not only characterized by impaired sleep a… Show more

“…24 Van Cauter et al 25 descrevem que a presença de ondas lentas de sono, o sono mais reparador, está associada à diminuição da frequência cardíaca, pressão arterial, atividade nervosa simpática e utilização da glicose cerebral, em comparação com o estado de vigília. Durante o aparecimento dessas ondas, são liberados hormônios anabólicos, como o hormônio do crescimento (GH), enquanto outros hormônios, como o cortisol, são inibidos.…”

“…Yet, we cannot rule out the involvement of others toxic compounds, particularly during NAFPD progression. Indeed, some studies suggest a possible causal relationship between NAFLD/ NAFPD-related disorders with chronic intermittent hypoxia elicited by obstructive sleep apnea [165,166], bacterial endotoxin [167][168][169], glyceraldehyde [170], methylglyoxal [171][172][173], advanced glycation end products (AGE)s [174], receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) [175], nitric oxide/peroxynitrite [176], and lipid peroxidation end products [177,178].…”
