The present study investigated the effects of circadian rhythm disorder (CRD) on the hippocampus of SHR and WKY rats. Male SHR rats (n = 27) and WKY rats (n = 27) were randomly divided into six groups: SHR and WKY normal (N)CR, SHR and WKY CRD 16/8 (CRD16/8), and SHR and WKY CRD12/12 (CRD12/12). Activity patterns were adjusted using different photoperiods over 90 days and any changes were recorded. Rats were tested in the Morris water maze and in a novel object recognition experiment; serologic analysis, magnetic resonance imaging (diffusion tensor imaging + arterial spin labeling), hippocampal Nissl staining, Fluoro-Jade B staining, and immunohistochemistry were also performed. The results showed that both types of inverted photoperiod reduced CR amplitude and prolonged the circadian period. CRD and hypertension reduced memory performance and novel object recognition and preference. The decreases in memory and preference indices were greater in rats in the CRD12/12 group compared to the CRD16/8 group. CRD and hypertension decreased fractional anisotropy values, the number of neurons and astrocytes in the hippocampus, and the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and synapsin 1; it also enhanced the degeneration of neurons and microglia and reduced blood flow in the hippocampus, and increased nuclear factor kappa B, caspase, neuron-specific enolase, and interleukin-6 levels. These findings reveal a biological basis for the link between CRD and cognitive decline, which has implications for CRD caused by shift work and other factors.
