It’s suuuuper interesting, right? I tried tossing “tnf-alpha inhibitor insomnia” into Google Scholar. Scanning the results I didn’t feel a “signal” in the papers that TNF-alpha inhibitors cause insomnia—which I wouldn’t expect either due to TNF inhibitor antibody size, right? But! There are tons of very interesting papers in the results behind those keywords. With multiple perspectives. Fruitful combo of keywords, you know? Google Scholar is unusually non-deterministic in what it returns for a given search. You probably won’t see the same papers as I did but it’s an interesting search: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=tnf%2Dalpha%20inhibitor%20insomnia https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=tnf%2Dalpha%20inhibitor... This paper stood out a bit: Inhibition of tumor necrosis factor improves sleep continuity in patients with treatment resistant depression and high inflammation (2015) Authors, full list as I have it in the buffer: Jeremy F.

First thoughts: TNF—alpha signaling becomes unfocused? TNF-alpha release outside the CNS affects receptor sensitivity or other downstream mechanisms that do straddle the blood-brain barrier?
