Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Adenosine is a neuromodulator that accumulates in the brain throughout the day and has been implicated as a neural sleep factor, promoting drowsiness and sleep. Caffeine, on the other hand, blocks the action of adenosine and promotes wakefulness. ATP, norepinephrine, and enkephalin are not directly implicated as sleep factors.
