Chronobiology: Anatomy in time

American Journal of Anatomy, 1983
AbstractChronobiology is that branch of science that objectively explos and quantifies mechanisms of biological time structure, including the important rhythmic manifestations of life. It is the study of biological rhythms. This paper introduces chronobiology and some of its vocabulary, principles, and techniques.A circadian rhythm is a regularly ...

Chronobiologic Optimization of Aging

1978
Chronobiologic facts, concepts and methods are relevant to gerontology and geriatrics. Circadian and other rhythms are prominent sources of predictable variation requiring a reassessment of the "normal range" at all ages. Changes in the characteristics (e.g., the amplitude) of these rhythms during aging emphasize the need for careful evaluation of time

From Chronobiology to Chronotherapeutics

The Consultant Pharmacist, 2005
Chronobiology focuses on variations in biological rhythms across time. This article describes biologic cycles, particularly circadian cycles and their underlying neuroanatomy. Metabolic rhythms are reviewed and their impact on disease and symptom variation discussed.

Introduction to Chronobiology

1983
Recorded recognition of the importance of biological rhythms in plants and animals dates back at least to 5000 b.c. Over the years, the understanding of rhythmic phenomena has grown, but the acceptance of chronobiology as a science has been slow nonetheless. This chapter reviews the development of modern chronobiology by recounting the milestone events

Chronobiology in the endocrine system

Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 2007
Biological signaling occurs in a complex web with participation and interaction of the central nervous system, the autonomous nervous system, the endocrine glands, peripheral endocrine tissues including the intestinal tract and adipose tissue, and the immune system.

An Introduction to Chronobiology

2012
One of the driving forces of evolution has been the constant search for independence from the uncertainties generated by a continuously changing environment. Faced with this selective pressure, organisms have developed mechanisms that permit uncertainties to be predicted, among which the biological clocks have been one of the most widely developed.

Chronobiology in Hemostastis

1992
Arterial and venous thromboembolic disorders remain the leading cause of death in most of the develop countries. A thrombotic occlusion of a coronary or cerebral artery, already damaged by atherosclerosis, appears to be a common and essential link in the onset of most of the cases of such vascular events and induces myocardial or cerebral infarctions ...

Chronobiology of Depression

1983
The temporal pattern of recurrent endogenous depression can be described and, to a certain extent, also explained in terms of chronobiology as resulting from entrainment to, and/or masking by, biological rhythms. Chronobiological hypotheses regarding the origin of depressive symptoms as such are less convincing.
