Transient anhedonia phenotype and altered circadian timing of behaviour during night-time dim light exposure in Per3(-/-) mice, but not wildtype mice. [PDF]

, 2017
Industrialisation greatly increased human night-time exposure to artificial light, which in animal models is a known cause of depressive phenotypes.

A single night light exposure acutely alters hormonal and metabolic responses in healthy participants

Endocrine Connections, 2017
Many animal studies have reported an association between melatonin suppression and the disturbance of metabolic responses; yet, few human studies have investigated bright light effects on metabolic and hormonal responses at night. This study investigated

Circadian and Metabolic Effects of Light: Implications in Weight Homeostasis and Health [PDF]

, 2017
Daily interactions between the hypothalamic circadian clock at the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) and peripheral circadian oscillators regulate physiology and metabolism to set temporal variations in homeostatic regulation.

Artificial light at night and risk of depression: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Environmental Health and Preventive Medicine
Background: Artificial light at night (ALAN) has been increasingly recognized as a potential environmental risk factor for mental health issues. However, no meta-analyses have been conducted to summarize the findings.

White and Amber Light at Night Disrupt Sleep Physiology in Birds.

Current Biology, 2020
Artificial light at night can disrupt sleep in humans [1-4] and other animals [5-10]. A key mechanism for light to affect sleep is via non-visual photoreceptors that are most sensitive to short-wavelength (blue) light [11].

Establishing a Large-Scale Field Experiment to Assess the Effects of Artificial Light at Night on Species and Food Webs [PDF]

, 2015
Artificial light at night (ALAN) is one of the most obvious hallmarks of human presence in an ecosystem. The rapidly increasing use of artificial light has fundamentally transformed nightscapes throughout most of the globe, although little is known about
