A PERIOD3 variant causes a circadian phenotype and is associated with a seasonal mood trait. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In humans, the connection between sleep and mood has long been recognized, although direct molecular evidence is lacking. We identified two rare variants in the circadian clock gene PERIOD3 (PER3-P415A/H417R) in humans with familial advanced sleep phase ...

Sleep and biological aging: A short review

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Endocrine and Metabolic Research, 2021
Obtaining healthy quantity and quality of sleep is a key to optimal mental and physical health, and cumulative evidence points to a role of sleep loss and sleep disturbances as a contributor to early disease onset and shortened survival. We propose that the molecular underpinnings that drive this risk are key drivers of the biological aging process ...
