Purpose: To investigate whether the elimination of β1- and β2-adrenergic receptors alters the diurnal intraocular pressure (IOP) rhythm in mice.Materials and Methods: β1-/β2-adrenergic receptor double-knockout and C57BL/6J mice were anesthetized intraperitoneally, with their IOPs measured via microneedle method. After entrainment to a 12-h light–dark (LD) cycle (light phase 6:00–18:00), IOPs were measured every 3 h from 9:00 to 24:00 (group 1, β1-/β2-adrenergic receptor double-knockout mice,n= 11; C57BL/6J,n= 15). The IOP measurements at 15:00 and 24:00 under a 12-h LD cycle and in the constant darkness (1 day and 8 days after exposure to darkness, respectively) were performed in another group of β1-/β2-adrenergic receptor double-knockout mice (group 2,n= 12). IOP variance throughout the day and mean IOP differences among time points were evaluated using a linear mixed model.Results: β1-/β2-adrenergic receptor double-knockout and C57BL/6J mice showed biphasic IOP curves, low during the light phase and high during the dark phase; the fluctuation was significant (P< 0.001). The peak IOP (18.7 ± 1.4 mmHg) occurred at 24:00 and the trough IOP (13.5 ± 1.5 mmHg) occurred at 15:00 in β1-/β2-adrenergic receptor double-knockout mice group. IOP curves of β1-/β2-adrenergic receptor double-knockout and C57BL/6J were nearly parallel, and the IOPs of β1-/β2-adrenergic receptor double-knockout mice were significantly higher than those of C57BL/6J mice (P< 0.001). Under constant dark (DD) conditions, IOP at 24:00 (18.1 ± 1.5 mmHg) was significantly higher than that at 15:00 (13.3 ± 1.2 mmHg) (P< 0.001). The transition from the LD cycle to DD environment produced no significant change in IOP (P= 0.728).Conclusions: Elimination of both β1- and β2-adrenergic receptors did not disturb the biphasic diurnal IOP rhythm in mice.
