Abstract
Obesity is associated with sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and unrefreshing sleep. Residual daytime sleepiness and sleep impairments often persist after SDB treatment in patients with obesity, which suggests an independent effect of obesity on breathing and sleep. However, examining the relationship between sleep architecture and SDB in patients with obesity is complex and can be confounded by multiple factors. The main goal of this study was to examine the relationship between obesity-related changes in sleep architecture and SDB. Sleep recordings were performed in 15 lean C57BL/6J and 17 diet-induced obesity (DIO) mice of the same genetic background. Arousals from sleep and apneas were manually scored. Respiratory arousals were classified as events associated with ≥30% drops in minute ventilation (VE) from baseline. We applied Poincaré analysis of VE during sleep to estimate breathing variability. Obesity augmented the frequency of arousals by 45% and this increase was independent of apneas. Respiratory arousals comprised only 15% of the arousals in both groups of mice. Breathing variability during non-rapid-eye-movment (NREM) sleep was significantly higher in DIO mice, but it was not associated with arousal frequency. Our results suggest that obesity induces sleep fragmentation independently of SDB severity.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Our diet-induced obesity (DIO) model reproduces sleep features of human obesity, including sleep fragmentation, increased apnea frequency, and larger breathing variability. DIO induces sleep fragmentation independently of apnea severity. Sleep fragmentation in DIO mice is mainly attributed to non-respiratory arousals. Increased breathing variability during sleep did not account for the higher arousal frequency in DIO. Our results provide a rationale to examine sleep in patients with obesity even when they are adequately treated for sleep-disordered breathing.

Abstract
Opioids impair many functions modulated by the prefrontal cortex (PFC), including wakefulness, cognition, and breathing. In contrast, cholinergic activity in the PFC increases wakefulness. This study tested the hypothesis that microinjecting the opioid fentanyl and the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor neostigmine into the PFC of awake C57BL/6J male mice (n = 27) alters breathing. The lateral and medial PFC were unilaterally microinjected with saline (control) and fentanyl. The medial PFC received additional microinjections of neostigmine. The results show that fentanyl caused site-specific changes in breathing. Fentanyl delivered to the lateral PFC significantly decreased minute ventilation variability, whereas fentanyl delivered to the medial PFC significantly increased tidal volume and duty cycle. Neostigmine microinjected into the medial PFC significantly increased respiratory rate, tidal volume, and minute ventilation. A final series of experiments revealed that decreased minute ventilation caused by systemic fentanyl administration was mitigated by PFC microinjection of neostigmine.

Abstract
The opioid buprenorphine alters breathing and the cytokine leptin stimulates breathing. Obesity increases the risk for respiratory disorders and can lead to leptin resistance. This study tested the hypothesis that buprenorphine causes dose-dependent changes in breathing that vary as a function of obesity, leptin status, and sex. Breathing measures were acquired from four congenic mouse lines: female and male wild type C57BL/6J (B6) mice, obese db/db and ob/ob mice with leptin dysfunction, and male B6 mice with diet-induced obesity. Mice were injected intraperitoneally with saline (control) and five doses of buprenorphine (0.1, 0.3, 1.0, 3.0, 10 mg/kg). Buprenorphine caused dose-dependent decreases in respiratory frequency while increasing tidal volume, minute ventilation, and respiratory duty cycle. The effects of buprenorphine varied significantly with leptin status and sex. Buprenorphine decreased minute ventilation variability in all mice. The present findings highlight leptin status as an important modulator of respiration and encourage future studies aiming to elucidate the mechanisms through which leptin status alters breathing.

Abstract
A new extended-release buprenorphine (XR), an FDA-indexed analgesic, has recently become available to the laboratory animal community. However, the effectiveness and dosing of XR has not been extensively evaluated for rats. We investigated XR's effectiveness in attenuating postoperative hypersensitivity in a rat incisional pain model. We hypothesized that high dose of XR would attenuate mechanical and thermal hypersensitivity more effectively than the low dose of XR in this model. We performed 2 experiments. In experiment 1, male adult Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 31) were randomly assigned to 1 of the 4 treatment groups: 1) saline (saline, 0.9% NaCl, 5 mL/kg, SC, once); 2) sustained-release buprenorphine (Bup-SR; 1.2 mg/kg, SC, once), 3) low-dose extended-release buprenorphine (XR-Lo; 0.65 mg/kg, SC, once), and 4) high-dose extended-release buprenorphine (XR-Hi; 1.3 mg/kg, SC, once). After drug administration, a 1 cm skin incision was made on the plantar hind paw under anesthesia. Mechanical and thermal hypersensitivity were evaluated 1 d before surgery (D-1), 4 h after surgery (D0), and for 3 d after surgery (D1, D2, and D3). In experiment 2, plasma buprenorphine concentration (n = 39) was measured at D0, D1, D2, and D3. Clinical observations were recorded daily, and a gross necropsy was performed on D3. Mechanical and thermal hypersensitivity were measured for 3 d (D0-D3) in the saline group. Bup-SR, XR-Lo, and XR-Hi effectively attenuated mechanical hypersensitivity for D0-D3. Plasma buprenorphine concentrations remained above 1 ng/mL on D0 and D1 in all treatment groups. No abnormal clinical signs were noted, but injection site reactions were evident in the Bup-SR (71%), XR-Lo (75%), and XR-Hi (87%) groups. This study indicates that XR-Hi did not attenuate hypersensitivity more effectively than did XR-Lo in this model. XR 0.65 mg/kg is recommended to attenuate postoperative mechanical hypersensitivity for up to 72 h in rats in an incisional pain model.

Abstract
The electroencephalogram (EEG) provides an objective, neural correlate of consciousness. Opioid receptors modulate mammalian neuronal excitability, and this fact was used to characterize how opioids administered to mice alter EEG power and states of consciousness. The present study tested the hypothesis that antinociceptive doses of fentanyl, morphine, or buprenorphine differentially alter the EEG and states of sleep and wakefulness in adult, male C57BL/6J mice. Mice were anesthetized and implanted with telemeters that enabled wireless recordings of cortical EEG and electromyogram (EMG). After surgical recovery, EEG and EMG were used to objectively score states of consciousness as wakefulness, rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, or non-REM (NREM) sleep. Measures of EEG power (dB) were quantified as δ (0.5-4 Hz), θ (4-8 Hz), α (8-13 Hz), σ (12-15 Hz), β (13-30 Hz), and γ (30-60 Hz). Compared with saline (control), fentanyl and morphine decreased NREM sleep, morphine eliminated REM sleep, and buprenorphine eliminated NREM sleep and REM sleep. Opioids significantly and differentially disrupted the temporal organization of sleep/wake states, altered specific EEG frequency bands, and caused dissociated states of consciousness. The results are discussed relative to the fact that opioids, pain, and sleep modulate interacting states of consciousness.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This study discovered that antinociceptive doses of fentanyl, morphine, and buprenorphine significantly and differentially disrupt EEG-defined states of consciousness in C57BL/6J mice. These data are noteworthy because: 1) buprenorphine is commonly used in medication-assisted therapy for opioid addiction, and 2) there is evidence that disordered sleep can promote addiction relapse. The results contribute to community phenotyping efforts by making publicly available all descriptive and inferential statistics from this study (Supplemental Tables S1-S8).

Abstract
Obtundation of wakefulness caused by opioids and loss of wakefulness caused by anesthetics and sleep significantly alter concentrations of molecules comprising the prefrontal cortex (PFC) metabolome. Quantifying state-selective changes in the PFC metabolome is essential for advancing functional metabolomics. Diverse functions of the PFC suggest the PFC metabolome as a potential therapeutic entry point for countermeasures to state-selective autonomic dysfunction.

Abstract
Study Objectives This study tested the hypothesis that sleep fragmentation (SF) delays wound healing in obese B6.BKS(D)-Leprdb/J (db/db) mice with impaired leptin signaling and type 2 diabetes compared with wild-type C57BL/6J (B6) mice. Methods Adult male mice (n = 34) were anesthetized and bilateral full-thickness excisional wounds were created on the back of each mouse. Half of the db/db and B6 mice were housed in SF cages equipped with a bar that moved across the cage floor every 2 min, 12 hr/day for 23 days. The other half of each group of mice was housed in the same room and did not experience SF. The dependent measures were number of days required to achieve wound closure, mRNA expression of four inflammatory mediators, blood glucose, insulin, and corticosterone. Results SF in the db/db mice caused a significant delay in wound healing relative to db/db mice with no SF. Days to achieve 50 per cent wound healing were 13.3 ± 0.4 with SF compared with 10.3 ± 0.7 without SF. All B6 mice achieved 50 per cent wound healing within 6 days and complete healing after 16 days. SF caused a significant increase in wound levels of TNF-α mRNA only in the db/db mice and an increase in corticosterone only in the B6 mice. Conclusions The delayed wound healing in obese, diabetic mice caused by SF is homologous to delayed wound healing in some patients with type 2 diabetes. The results support the interpretation that altered leptinergic signaling and inflammatory proteins contribute to delayed wound healing.
