ABSTRACT Although not as prominent as in other animals, humans also experience seasonal variations in sleep duration and circadian processes. These variations are likely primarily driven by changes in photoperiod length. Anecdotally, many people report experiencing fatigue and low energy levels, particularly during spring in Germany, Switzerland and ...

Chronobiology and Chronotherapy of Osteoporosis
Physiological circadian (ie, 24‐hour) rhythms are critical for bone health. Animal studies have shown that genes involved in the intrinsic molecular clock demonstrate potent circadian expression patterns in bone and that genetic disruption of these clock

Acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia augments left ventricular contractility
Abstract figure legend Twenty‐four healthy adults were studied to determine the effects of an acute session of 40 min of intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia on cardiac performance. Cardiac function was assessed via echocardiography at rest and during graded stages of lower‐body negative pressure before and after the intervention to quantify load ...

Abstract Aims Little is known about how the alignment between daily behaviours, such as physical activity and eating, and chronotype relates to glucose metabolism. We investigated whether alignment of physical activity and meal timing with chronotype was associated with glycaemic parameters and with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes (T2DM).

To dissociate the effects induced by artificial indoor light at night from those induced by circadian desynchronization, females of the diurnal rodent, Arvicanthis ansorgei, were exposed to chronic indoor light at night (mimicking nightwork) or to chronic night shift (mimicking shiftwork).

Researchers have developed a patient‐derived organ‐on‐a‐chip model for pancreatic cancer by integrating cancer cells with supportive stromal and immune cells inside a microfluidic device. This system mimics the tumor microenvironment, enabling personalized testing of chemotherapy and immunotherapy, and offering new insights into how targeting ...

Impact of Varying Sleep Pressure on Daytime Sleep Propensity in Healthy Young and Older Adults
Fixed sleep schedules with an 8 h time in bed (TIB) are used to ensure participants are well-rested before laboratory studies. However, such schedules may lead to cumulative excess wakefulness in young individuals.

A Conserved Circadian Function for the Neurofibromatosis 1 Gene
Summary: Loss of the Neurofibromatosis 1 (Nf1) protein, neurofibromin, in Drosophila disrupts circadian rhythms of locomotor activity without impairing central clock function, suggesting effects downstream of the clock.
