Circadian Clock Genes in Diabetic Kidney Disease (DKD) [PDF]
The purpose of this review is to provide a brief summary about the current state of knowledge regarding the circadian rhythm in the regulation of normal renal function.There is a lack of information regarding how the circadian clock mechanisms may contribute to the development of diabetic kidney disease.

Dawn- and dusk-phased circadian transcription rhythms coordinate anabolic and catabolic functions in Neurospora [PDF]
Background: Circadian clocks control rhythmic expression of a large number of genes in coordination with the 24 hour day-night cycle. The mechanisms generating circadian rhythms, their amplitude and circadian phase are dependent on a transcriptional ...

Alterations of clock gene RNA expression in brain Regions of a triple transgenic model of Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]
A disruption to circadian rhythmicity and the sleep/wake cycle constitutes a major feature of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The maintenance of circadian rhythmicity is regulated by endogenous clock genes and a number of external Zeitgebers, including light ...

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.

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our

A network of pro-inflammatory genes repressed by clock signalling in bronchial epithelium
Background Circadian rhythms are biological cycles that regulate various physiological processes, including immune responses, tissue repair and oxidative stress. Previous studies indicated a role for distorted circadian signalling in COPD.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Circadian control of interferon-sensitive gene expression in murine skin. [PDF]
The circadian clock coordinates a variety of immune responses with signals from the external environment to promote survival. We investigated the potential reciprocal relationship between the circadian clock and skin inflammation.

The Circadian Clock Gene BMAL1 Coordinates Intestinal Regeneration [PDF]
The gastrointestinal syndrome is an illness of the intestine caused by high levels of radiation. It is characterized by extensive loss of epithelial tissue integrity, which initiates a regenerative response by intestinal stem and precursor cells. The intestine has 24-hour rhythms in many physiological functions that are believed to be outputs of the ...

This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...
