In adult rat brains, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) rhythmically oscillates according to the light-dark cycle and exhibits unique functions in particular brain regions. However, little is known of this subject in juvenile rats. Here, we examined diurnal variation in BDNF and neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) levels in 14-day-old rats. BDNF levels were high in the dark phase and low in the light phase in a majority of brain regions. In contrast, NT-3 levels demonstrated an inverse phase relationship that was limited to the cerebral neocortex, including the visual cortex, and was most prominent on postnatal day 14. An 8-h phase advance of the light-dark cycle and sleep deprivation induced an increase in BDNF levels and a decrease in NT-3 levels in the neocortex, and the former treatment reduced synaptophysin expression and the numbers of synaptophysin-positive presynaptic terminals in cortical layer IV and caused abnormal BDNF and NT-3 rhythms 1 week after treatment. A similar reduction of synaptophysin expression was observed in the cortices of Bdnf gene-deficient mice and Ca2+-dependent activator protein for secretion 2 gene-deficient mice with abnormal free-running rhythm and autistic-like phenotypes. In the latter mice, no diurnal variation in BDNF levels was observed. These results indicate that regular rhythms of BDNF and NT-3 are essential for correct cortical network formation in juvenile rodents.
