  Sleep and gene expression

Sleep deprivation impact memory, mood, and other cognitive processes. The Allen Institute is examining gene expression in the mouse brain in response to sleep deprivation to understand which particular regions or cell types are affected, and which genes are up- or down-regulated. The initial data for 48 genes is now available on the web - go to the gene search page, and click on "Sleep Study" under the Allen Institute Projects on the right side of the page. Use "Export all genes in Database" on the right hand side to find out what genes are available.

Are there any graphs showing the quantitative differences in the 48 genes that have so far been collected for the different sleep conditions in any of the brain regions examined.  I am especially interested in the hippocampus looking at the simple comparison of wake vs. sleep.
