title: [The role of sleep in memory consolidation: effects of age and Alzheimer's disease].
abstract: Sleep favors memory consolidation. Studies conducted in recent years allowed to reveal the neurobiological underpinnings underlying the beneficial effect of sleep on memory. They also have led to the proposal of two theoretical models: the "hippocampo-neocortical dialogue" and the "synaptic downscaling hypothesis". Normal ageing and, even more markedly Alzheimer's disease, are associated with sleep changes that may alter sleep-dependent memory consolidation. This paper presents a review of studies investigating the relationships between sleep and memory and how these links are affected by ageing and Alzheimer's disease.
