Abstract:
:Constant light exposure (LL) can result in "splitting" of circadian rhythms into two components coupled about 12 hr apart. Splitting has been interpreted as evidence for the presence of two main oscillators or groups of oscillators underlying circadian rhythms. Abolition of splitting after unilateral suprachiasmatic nucleus ablation suggested that each suprachiasmatic nucleus could correspond to one of these component oscillators. We examined whether lesions outside the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) would abolish split activity rhythms of hamsters in LL. Wheel-running activity was recorded for 3 months after surgery. Tissue damage was assessed by Klüver-Barrera staining. Damage to areas dorso-caudal to the SCN was able to abolish the split condition. Bilateral damage to the anterior SCN, partial unilateral SCN ablation or unilateral periventricular damage also abolished the split pattern. These results indicate that destruction of one SCN is not essential for the elimination of split rhythms since lesions dorsal to the SCN or partial bilateral SCN damage are also effective. Indirect lesion effects on SCN function or damage to extra-SCN oscillators may account for the loss of the split condition.
