Mood phenotypes in rodent models with circadian disturbances
Many physiological functions with approximately 24-h rhythmicity (circadian rhythms) are generated by an internal time-measuring system of the circadian clock.

Brain-specific rescue of Clock reveals system-driven transcriptional rhythms in peripheral tissue.
The circadian regulatory network is organized in a hierarchical fashion, with a central oscillator in the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) orchestrating circadian oscillations in peripheral tissues.

A ubiquitous feature of the circadian clock across life forms is its organization as a network of cellular oscillators, with individual cellular oscillators within the network often exhibiting considerable heterogeneity in their intrinsic periods.

Non-circadian expression masking clock-driven weak transcription rhythms in U2OS cells. [PDF]
U2OS cells harbor a circadian clock but express only a few rhythmic genes in constant conditions. We identified 3040 binding sites of the circadian regulators BMAL1, CLOCK and CRY1 in the U2OS genome. Most binding sites even in promoters do not correlate

Circadian Clock Genes and the Transcriptional Architecture of the Clock Mechanism.
The mammalian circadian clock has evolved as an adaptation to the 24-hour light/dark cycle on earth. Maintaining cellular activities in synchrony with the activities of the organism (such as eating and sleeping) helps different tissue and organ systems ...

Strawberry is an economically important fruit crop worldwide. Circadian clock genes are endogenous timers that regulate a wide range of metabolic processes and consequently plant development.

Targeting Glioblastoma Stem Cells through Disruption of the Circadian Clock.
Glioblastomas are highly lethal cancers, containing self-renewing glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs). Here, we show that GSCs, differentiated glioblastoma cells (DGCs), and non-malignant brain cultures all displayed robust circadian rhythms, yet GSCs alone ...

Circadian Clocks: Evolution in the Shadows [PDF]
As scientists, we strive for highly controlled conditions. The real world, however, is noisy. Complex networks are a coping mechanism for an erratic environment.

Circadian Clock Regulates Inflammation and the Development of Neurodegeneration
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.

Radical pairs can explain magnetic field and lithium effects on the circadian clock [PDF]
Drosophila's circadian clock can be perturbed by magnetic fields, as well as by lithium administration. Cryptochromes are critical for the circadian clock. Further, the radical pairs in cryptochrome also can explain magnetoreception in animals. Based on a simple radical pair mechanism model of the animal magnetic compass, we show that both magnetic ...
