- dc.description.abstract Chronodisruption, the misalignment of internal biological systems with external environmental changes, negatively impacts health and cognition. A prevalent form, social jet lag, affects a large portion of adolescents and is associated with reduced academic performance, and impaired emotional regulation. Despite its prevalence, the mechanism by which adolescent chronodisruption results in cognitive deficits remains unexplored. Here, we induced chronic chronodisruption in adolescent mice through light/dark cycle manipulation. We performed a battery of established behavioral tests alongside an analysis of daily rhythms of expression of genes involved in relevant physiological functions. We report that adolescent circadian disruption induces impairments in short-term, social, and spatial memory without prompting anxiety-like behavior. Gene expression analyses revealed altered oscillation patterns of circadian clock genes in the hypothalamus and hippocampus. Furthermore, we identified alterations in daily patterns of genes involved in glucocorticoid and endocannabinoid transmissions as well as synaptic plasticity. This work emphasizes the importance of circadian homeostasis for cognitive function and hippocampal homeostasis. Thus, understanding the mechanism underlying adolescent chronodisruption is essential to better understand its long-term implications for cognitive function and overall health.
