Neurodegeneration and the Circadian Clock [PDF]
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2017 Despite varied etiologies and symptoms, several neurodegenerative diseases-specifically, Alzheimer's (AD), Parkinson's (PD), and Huntington's diseases (HDs)-share the common feature of abnormal circadian rhythms, such as those in behavior (e.g., disrupted sleep/wake cycles), physiological processes (e.g., diminished hormone release) and biochemical ...

Quantitative analysis of regulatory flexibility under changing environmental conditions [PDF]
, 2010 The circadian clock controls 24-h rhythms in many biological processes, allowing appropriate timing of biological rhythms relative to dawn and dusk. Known clock circuits include multiple, interlocked feedback loops.

The Circadian Clock and Viral Infections [PDF]
Journal of Biological Rhythms, 2020 The circadian clock controls several aspects of mammalian physiology and orchestrates the daily oscillations of biological processes and behavior. Our circadian rhythms are driven by an endogenous central clock in the brain that synchronizes with clocks in peripheral tissues, thereby regulating our immune system and the severity of infections.

Identification of PCBP1 as a Novel Modulator of Mammalian Circadian Clock
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 The circadian clock governs our daily cycle of behavior and physiology. Previous studies have identified a handful of core clock components and hundreds of circadian modifiers.

Environmental memory from a circadian oscillator:the Arabidopsis thaliana clock differentially integrates perception of photic vs. thermal entrainment [PDF]
, 2011 The constraint of a rotating earth has led to the evolution of a circadian clock that drives anticipation of future environmental changes. During this daily rotation, the circadian clock of Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis) intersects with the diurnal ...

Cancer and the Circadian Clock
Cancer Research, 2019 Abstract The circadian clock is a master regulator of mammalian physiology, regulating daily oscillations of crucial biological processes and behaviors. Notably, circadian disruption has recently been identified as an independent risk factor for cancer and classified as a carcinogen.

Circadian and Circalunar Clock Interactions in a Marine Annelid
Cell Reports, 2013 Life is controlled by multiple rhythms. Although the interaction of the daily (circadian) clock with environmental stimuli, such as light, is well documented, its relationship to endogenous clocks with other periods is little understood.

Circadian Clock Regulates Inflammation and the Development of Neurodegeneration
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 The circadian clock regulates numerous key physiological processes and maintains cellular, tissue, and systemic homeostasis. Disruption of circadian clock machinery influences key activities involved in immune response and brain function.

Solving the mystery of human sleep schedules one mutation at a time. [PDF]
, 2013 Sleep behavior remains one of the most enigmatic areas of life. The unanswered questions range from "why do we sleep?" to "how we can improve sleep in today's society?" Identification of mutations responsible for altered circadian regulation of human ...
