‘Seeing’ the electromagnetic spectrum: spotlight on the cryptochrome photocycle
Cryptochromes are widely dispersed flavoprotein photoreceptors that regulate numerous developmental responses to light in plants, as well as to stress and entrainment of the circadian clock in animals and humans.

Assessment of circadian rhythm protein levels in the pathogenesis of infantile colic
Infantile colic is a common disorder characterized by excessive crying in infants, with its etiology remaining largely unclear. In this study, the potential role of core circadian rhythm (CR) proteins in infantile colic was investigated.
