Calcium dynamics and circadian rhythms in suprachiasmatic nucleus neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) has a pivotal role in the mammalian circadian clock. SCN neurons generate circadian rhythms in action potential firing frequencies and neurotransmitter release, and the core oscillation is thought to be ...

Altered peripheral CRY1 gene expression may contribute to both organic and functional gastrointestinal disease

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are characterized by alterations in physiological and immune functions. Given the circadian clock influences gastrointestinal physiology and immunity, we hypothesized that the peripheral circadian clock is altered in these patients and ...

Rhythmic Trafficking of TRPV2 in the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus is Regulated by Prokineticin 2 Signaling

open access: yesJournal of Circadian Rhythms, 2015
The mammalian circadian clock is composed of single-cell oscillators. Neurochemical and electrical signaling among these oscillators is important for the normal expression of circadian rhythms.

The causative role of amyloidosis in the cardiac complications of Alzheimer's disease: a comprehensive systematic review

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic illustration of the bidirectional causative link between cerebral amyloid‐beta (Aβ) angiopathy and cardiovascular disease in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Common cardiovascular risk factors like microvascular thrombosis, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, hypertension and atherosclerosis lead to cerebral hypoperfusion and ...

CIRCADIAN RHYTMICITY AND DEPRESSION

open access: yesZdravniški Vestnik, 2008
BACKGROUND Depression is the most common psychiatric syndrome treated on the primary level. Abnormal patterns of circadian rhythms are associated with a large variety of affective disorders including depression.

Differential effects of sex and age on daily and infradian rhythms of mice

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Summary of age‐ and sex‐dependent differences in behavioural rhythmicity and environmental adaptation in mice. Middle‐aged mice of both sexes show weight loss and increased daytime activity compared with young adults. In males, circadian timing remains precise with a strong 10‐day infradian rhythm across ages.

Vasoactive intestinal peptide controls the suprachiasmatic circadian clock network via ERK1/2 and DUSP4 signalling

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) synchronises daily rhythms of behaviour and physiology to the light-dark cycle. Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) is important for mediating SCN entrainment; however, the underlying mechanisms are incompletely ...

Loss of dopamine disrupts circadian rhythms in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2014
Although a wide range of physiological functions regulated by dopamine (DA) display circadian variations, the role of DA in the generation and/or modulation of these rhythms is unknown.

It takes two to tango: NAD+ and sirtuins in aging/longevity control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The coupling of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) breakdown and protein deacylation is a unique feature of the family of proteins called ‘sirtuins.’ This intimate connection between NAD+ and sirtuins has an ancient origin and provides a ...

Pinopsin Regulates Melatonin Production and Daily Locomotor Activity: Functional Insights From Gene‐Edited Xenopus Tadpoles

open access: yesJournal of Pineal Research, Volume 78, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Circadian rhythm alignment depends on environmental light detection via opsins. Pinopsin, originally identified in the pineal organ of birds and later in amphibian pineal complex and eyes, may play a role in this process, though its function has not been genetically tested.
