摘要

Memory in humans is generally divided into two broad categories: declarative (for facts and events) and procedural (for skills and motor abilities). To persist, memories undergo a process referred to as consolidation, where a fresh, initially labile memory trace becomes more robust and stable. Sleep is known to play an important role in declarative memory consolidation, and in the past decade, there has been increasing evidence for a role of sleep in the consolidation of procedural memory as well. Interestingly, however, the beneficial effects of sleep do not seem to be homogenous. Motor sequence learning consolidation, in particular, has been found to be particularly sensitive to sleep effects, while the consolidation of motor adaptation has not. Moreover, neuroimaging research, has demonstrated that the long term retention of these two types of motor abilities rely on different neuronal networks, namely the cortico-striatal and cortico-cerebellar systems, respectively. Yet the implication of these networks in the consolidation of these two types of motor memory remains unclear. The aim of the present doctoral thesis was thus to determine the influence of sleep, while controlling for the simple passage of daytime, on the consolidation of a motor sequence learning task vs. a motor adaptation task. We further aimed to bring new insights into the underlying brain regions involved in consolidating these two forms of motor skills.;Consistent with previous research, we found off-line improvements in performance for motor adaptation learning, independent of whether participants had a night of sleep or remained awake during daytime. Furthermore, these improvements were correlated with activity in the cerebellum. In contrast, we found that off-line increases in performance in motor sequence learning were evident after a night of sleep but not over the day; and the putamen was strongly associated with this sleep-dependent consolidation process. Finally, while measuring brain changes in connectivity associated with the latter process, we observed that sleep-dependent consolidation is reflected by an increased level of integration within the cortico-striatal system, but not in other functional networks. Conversely, the simple passage of daytime in the wake state seems to result in decreased cortico-striatal integration. In sum our results highlight that not all motor memories undergo sleep-dependent consolidation. We demonstrated that these different paths to consolidation are also reflected by distinct underlying neuronal systems, namely a cortico-striatal and cortico-cerebellar network associated with the consolidation of motor sequence and motor adaptation learning respectively. Furthermore, we propose that consolidation of motor sequences during sleep protects and favors cohesion within the cortico-striatal system, a phenomenon that, if replicated in other types of memories, may be considered as a new marker of sleep-dependent consolidation.
