| Research Abstract |
Psychological stressors prominently affect diurnal rhythms including locomotor activity, sleep, blood pressure and body temperature in humans. We found that the novel continuous stress imposed by perpetual avoidance of water on a wheel (PAWW) affected several physiological diurnal rhythms in mice. PAWW stress decayed robust circadian locomotor rhythmicity in the mice and locomotor activity was evident even during the light period when mice are normally asleep. Daytime activity was significantly upregulated, whereas night-time activity was downregulated, resulting in a low amplitude of activity. Total daily activity gradually decreased with increasing exposure to PAWW stress. Continuous PAWW stress reduced the duration of daytime sleep, especially during the first half of the light period, and increased night-time sleepiness. These sleep architecture phenotypes under stress were similar to those of patients with insomnia.
