Abstrakt: We established a zebrafish model of depression-like behaviour induced by exposure to artificial light at night (ALAN) and found that nobiletin (NOB) alleviated depression-like behaviour. Subsequently, based on the results of a 24-h free movement assay, clock gene expression and brain tissue transcriptome sequencing, the glycolysis signalling pathway was identified as a potential target through which NOB exerted antidepressant effects. Using the ALAN zebrafish model, we found that supplementation with exogenous L-lactic acid alleviated depressive-like behaviour. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations revealed an inter-molecular interaction between NOB and the pyruvate kinase isozyme M1/M2 (PKM2) protein. We then used compound 3 k to construct a zebrafish model in which PKM2 was inhibited. Our analysis of this model suggested that NOB alleviated depression-like behaviour via inhibition of PKM2. In summary, NOB alleviated depressive-like behaviour induced by ALAN in zebrafish via targeting of PKM2 and activation of the glycolytic signalling pathway.
