Mesopontine cholinergic neurons have long been thought to play a key role in behavioral state control. In particular, they have been implicated in the process of EEG desynchrony and in the generation of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. However, the behavioral profile of identified mesopontine cholinergic neurons has not been unequivocally demonstrated. In an attempt to address this issue, in vivo microdialysis was used to monitor acetylcholine (ACh) release across behavioral state in the rat thalamus, a major projection site of mesopontine cholinergic neurons. Because REM periods in rats are of short duration, a method was developed to collect and accumulate sufficiently large samples from each of the individual states of wake, slow-wave sleep, and REM sleep to permit off-line analysis via (HPLC- ECD). Probe placement and the source of cholinergic innervation to the vicinity of the microdialysis probe were verified using retrograde tracing combined with ChAT immunohistochemistry. Finally, the sodium and calcium dependence of ACh measured in the thalamus were tested using TTX and calcium-free dialysates. The results showed that (1) extracellular ACh concentrations in the thalamus are high during both wake and REM sleep and significantly lower during slow-wave sleep, (2) the majority of cholinergic projections to the vicinity of the dialysis probes originate in the mesopontine tegmentum, and (3) ACh release in the thalamus is due to sodium- and calcium-dependent mechanisms. In contrast to predictions of some previous hypotheses, these results demonstrate that mesopontine cholinergic neurons are active during both wake and REM sleep.
