Dopamine 2 Receptor Activation Entrains Circadian Clocks in Mouse Retinal Pigment Epithelium

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Many of the physiological, cellular, and molecular rhythms that are present within the eye are under the control of circadian clocks. Experimental evidence suggests that the retinal circadian clock, or its output signals (e.g., dopamine and melatonin ...

Uncoupling the Mitogenic and Metabolic Functions of FGF1 by Tuning FGF1-FGF Receptor Dimer Stability

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Lysine acetylation is involved in various biological processes and is considered a key reversible post-translational modification in the regulation of gene expression, enzyme activity, and subcellular localization. This post-translational modification is

Circadian and Ultradian Rhythms of Free Glucocorticoid Hormone Are Highly Synchronized between the Blood, the Subcutaneous Tissue, and the Brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Total glucocorticoid hormone levels in plasma of various species, including humans, follow a circadian rhythm that is made up from an underlying series of hormone pulses. In blood most of the glucocorticoid is bound to corticosteroid-binding globulin and

Hepatic gene therapy rescues high-fat diet responses in circadian Clock mutant mice

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2017
Objective: Circadian Clock gene mutant mice show dampened 24-h feeding rhythms and an increased sensitivity to high-fat diet (HFD) feeding. Restricting HFD access to the dark phase counteracts its obesogenic effect in wild-type mice.

The Melanocortin-4 Receptor Integrates Circadian Light Cues and Metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The melanocortin system directs diverse physiological functions from coat color to body weight homoeostasis. A commonality among melanocortin-mediated processes is that many animals modulate similar processes on a circannual basis in response to longer ...

Perfect timing: circadian rhythms, sleep, and immunity - an NIH workshop summary.

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2020
Recent discoveries demonstrate a critical role for circadian rhythms and sleep in immune system homeostasis. Both innate and adaptive immune responses - ranging from leukocyte mobilization, trafficking, and chemotaxis to cytokine release and T cell ...

Circadian clocks and breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Circadian clocks respond to environmental time cues to coordinate 24-hour oscillations in almost every tissue of the body. In the breast, circadian clocks regulate the rhythmic expression of numerous genes.

Effects of light on human circadian rhythms, sleep and mood

open access: yesSomnologie, 2019
Humans live in a 24-hour environment, in which light and darkness follow a diurnal pattern. Our circadian pacemaker, the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) in the hypothalamus, is entrained to the 24-hour solar day via a pathway from the retina and ...
