Memory corticalization triggered by REM sleep: mechanisms of cellular and systems consolidation.

This article reviews the plasticity mechanisms triggered by REM sleep, with a focus on the emerging role of kinases and immediate-early genes for the progressive corticalization of hippocampus-dependent memories. The body of evidence suggests that memory corticalization triggered by REM sleep is a systemic phenomenon with cellular and molecular causes. PMID: 30054638 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
