Chronothyroidology: Chronobiological Aspects in Thyroid Function and Diseases
Chronobiology is the scientific discipline which considers biological phenomena in relation to time, which assumes itself biological identity. Many physiological processes are cyclically regulated by intrinsic clocks and many pathological events show a ...

Rodent models for the analysis of tissue clock function in metabolic rhythms research [PDF]
The circadian timing system consists on a distributed network of cellular clocks that together coordinate 24-h rhythms of physiology and behavior. Clock function and metabolism are tightly coupled, from the cellular to the organismal level.
