Light affects behavioral despair involving the clock gene <i>Period 1</i>

2020-05-08

Abstract excerpt

Light at night has strong effects on physiology and behavior of mammals. It affects mood in humans, which is exploited as light therapy, and has been shown to reset the circadian clock in the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN). This resetting is paramount to align physiological and biochemical timing to the environmental light-dark cycle. Here we provide evidence that light affects mood-related behaviors also in mice by...
