The role of microRNAs in the molecular link between circadian rhythm and autism spectrum disorder
Circadian rhythm regulates physiological cycles of awareness and sleepiness. Melatonin production is primarily regulated by circadian regulation of gene expression and is involved in sleep homeostasis. If the circadian rhythm is abnormal, sleep disorders,

Role of Sleep Restriction in Daily Rhythms of Expression of Hypothalamic Core Clock Genes in Mice
Lack of sleep time is a menace to modern people, and it leads to chronic diseases and mental illnesses. Circadian processes control sleep, but little is known about how sleep affects the circadian system.

Circadian Rhythm Sleep Disorders
Because there is insufficient cellular energy for organisms to perform their functions at the same constant rate and at the same time, all biologic processes show rhythmicity, each with its own unique frequency, amplitude, and phase. Optimal sleep and wakefulness requires proper timing and alignment of desired sleep-wake schedules and circadian rhythm ...

The Effect of Blindness on Biological Rhythms and the Consequences of Circadian Rhythm Disorder
Various physiological systems and behaviors such as the sleep-wake cycle, vigilance, body temperature, and the secretion of certain hormones are governed by a 24-hour cycle called the circadian system.

Circadian Rhythm Sleep Disorder: Irregular Sleep Wake Rhythm [PDF]
Irregular Sleep Wake Rhythm Disorder (ISWRD) is characterized by the relative absence of a circadian pattern in an individual's sleep-wake cycle. Significant changes in circadian regulation occur with aging and with neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease prevalent in older adults, which are likely to contribute to the prevalence of ...
