Assaying locomotor activity to study circadian rhythms and sleep parameters in Drosophila. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Most life forms exhibit daily rhythms in cellular, physiological and behavioral phenomena that are driven by endogenous circadian (≡24 hr) pacemakers or clocks. Malfunctions in the human circadian system are associated with numerous diseases or disorders.

Body Biofluids for Minimally‐Invasive Diagnostics: Insights, Challenges, Emerging Technologies, and Clinical Potential

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Recent advances in diagnostics have accelerated the development of miniaturized wearable technologies for the continuous monitoring of diseases. This paradigm is shifting healthcare away from invasive, centralized blood tests toward decentralized monitoring, using alternative body biofluids.

Pathophysiology and pathogenesis of circadian rhythm sleep disorders [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physiological Anthropology, 2012
Metabolic, physiological and behavioral processes exhibit 24-hour rhythms in most organisms, including humans. These rhythms are driven by a system of self-sustained clocks and are entrained by environmental cues such as light-dark cycles as well as food intake.

Life Factors and Melanoma: From the Macroscopic State to the Molecular Mechanism

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Melanoma, an aggressive skin cancer, arises from dynamic interactions between genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. This review explores how age, gender, obesity, diet, exercise, smoking, alcohol, UV exposure, circadian rhythms, and medications influence melanoma risk and progression.

Sleep and Circadian Rhythm Disturbance in Remitted Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

open access: yesSchizophrenia bulletin, 2020
Background Sleep and circadian rhythm disturbances in schizophrenia are common, but incompletely characterized. We aimed to describe and compare the magnitude and heterogeneity of sleep-circadian alterations in remitted schizophrenia and compare them ...

Circadian rhythms and hormonal homeostasis: Pathophysiological implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Over recent years, a deeper comprehension of the molecular mechanisms that control biological clocks and circadian rhythms has been achieved. In fact, many studies have contributed to unravelling the importance of the molecular clock for the regulation ...

A Peripheral Mechanism of Depression: Disturbed Intestinal Epithelial Per2 Gene Expression Causes Depressive Behaviors in Mice with Circadian Rhythm Disruption via Gut Barrier Damage and Microbiota Dysbiosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Circardian rhythm disorder (CRD) causes abnormal expression of intestinal Period 2 (Per2) gene, which compromising intestinal barrier integrity and altering the gut microenvironment. Microbiota dysbiosis and aberrant metabolites production drive central inflammation, impair neurogenesis, and promote functional deficits, ultimately facilitating the ...

Sleep and circadian rhythms in mood disorders [PDF]

open access: yesActa Psychiatrica Scandinavica, 2007
Objective:  Self‐reported sleep disturbances are present in over 80% of patients with depression. However, sleep electroencephalography (EEG) findings, based on overnight polysomnography have not always differentiated depressed patients from healthy individuals.Method:  The present paper will review the findings on sleep EEG studies in depression ...

Melatonin use in sleep disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Melatonin is a widely publicized 'magical drug'. Claims of its use include regulation of sleep, circadian rhythm, mood, immune system and reproduction, anti-aging, protection against cancer, and treatment of AIDS. This article reviews the evidence of its

Precision‐Arranged DNA Origami Plasmonic Nanoantennas for Multidimensional Smart‐Warning of Weightlessness Induced Bone Loss

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
It is synthesized precision‐arranged DNA origami plasmonic nanoantennas for multiplexed and intelligent warning of bone loss induced by microgravity and radiation. The ordered nanoantennas simultaneously and accurately detected calcium ions, interleukin‐6, and microRNA‐214 in serum from mice exposed to microgravity and radiation, with performance ...
