The paper's core idea isn’t that all cells that use mitochondria need sleep, but rather: > In a specific subset of sleep-inducing neurons, mitochondrial electron leak builds up when energy is available but underused during neuronal inactivity. That mismatch acts as a sleep signal. The heart doesn’t fall into that subset. |
