Sleep deprivation (SD) is widely acknowledged as a significant risk factor for cognitive impairment. In this study, intraperitoneal caffeine administration significantly ameliorated the learning and memory (L/M) deficits induced by SD and reduced aggressive behaviors in adult zebrafish. SD led to a reduction in protein kinase A (PKA) phosphorylation, phosphorylated-cAMP response element-binding protein (p-CREB), and c-Fos expression in zebrafish brain. Notably, these alterations were effectively reversed by caffeine. In addition, caffeine mitigated neuroinflammation induced by SD, as evident from suppression of the SD-mediated increase in glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) activation. Caffeine restored normal O-GlcNAcylation and O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) levels while reversing the increased expression of O-GlcNAcase (OGA) in zebrafish brain after SD. Intriguingly, rolipram, a selective phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor, effectively mitigated cognitive deficits, restored p-CREB and c-Fos levels, and attenuated the increase in GFAP in brain induced by SD. In addition, rolipram reversed the decrease in O-GlcNAcylation and OGT expression as well as elevation of OGA expression following SD. Treatment with H89, a PKA inhibitor, signifi- cantly impaired the L/M functions of zebrafish compared with the control group, inducing a decrease in O-GlcNAcylation and OGT expression and, conversely, an increase in OGA expression. The H89-induced changes in O-GlcNAc cycling and L/Mdysfunction were effectively reversed by glucosamine treatment.H89 suppressed,whereas caffeine and roliprampromotedO-GlcNAc cycling inNeuro2a cells.Our collective findings underscore the interplay between PKA signaling and O-GlcNAc cycling in the regulation of cognitive function in the brain, offering potential therapeutic targets for cognitive deficits associatedwith SD.
