Abstract

Background: Acute and chronic sleep deprivation present many health-related problems in modern societies, mainly concerning the immune system. Immune factors, particularly the interleukins, regulate sleep and, therefore, may be altered by sleep deprivation (SD). Objectives: We aimed to investigate the possible effects of acute and chronic sleep deprivation on selected cytokines, including interleukins (IL-1β, IL-9, IL-17, and IL-23) and tumor necrosis factor- alpha (TNF-α). Methods: The animals were grouped into acute sleep-deprived (SD; for 24 hours) and chronic sleep-deprived (8 hours a day for 10, 20, and 30-days). The SD was induced using the multipleplatforms model. The serum levels of cytokines were measured using commercially available ELISA. Results: The serum levels of IL-1β were significantly reduced after acute SD, whereas they were increased after 20-days of chronic SD. The IL-9 levels were reduced after acute SD, increased after 10-days of SD, and reduced again after 30-days of SD. Conversely, the levels of IL-23 were not changed after acute SD, reduced after 10 days of SD, and increased after 30-days of SD. Levels of TNF-α were not changed after acute SD, whereas they were increased after 20 and 30- days of SD. Conclusion: In conclusion, both acute and chronic SD distinctly disturb the immune profile, which might result in the emergence of various pathologies presented during sleep deprivation.
