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

ABSTRACT Circadian rhythms orchestrate cardiovascular physiology by regulating immune and inflammatory pathways. Disruption of these rhythms profoundly alters vascular homeostasis, thereby promoting the onset and progression of cardiovascular diseases (CVD).

Melanopsin-expressing retinal ganglion cells are resistant to cell injury, but not always [PDF]
Melanopsin retinal ganglion cells (mRGCs) are intrinsically photosensitive RGCs deputed to non-image forming functions of the eye such as synchronization of circadian rhythms to light-dark cycle.

Cilia in Nervous System Development, Function, and Disease
Cilia are evolutionarily conserved organelles that function as essential sensory and motility platforms in the nervous system. This review outlines key cilia‐dependent signaling pathways and their roles in neural development and function. Furthermore, it highlights how ciliary dysfunction can lead to a variety of neurological disorders, known as ...

Aging‐related decline of muscle Bmal1 drives bone loss in mice by disrupting Hmox1 and increasing IL‐1α, which promotes osteoclast activity. Time‐restricted feeding reestablishes diurnal Hmox1 expression, reduces IL‐1α, and alleviates osteoporosis, offering a potential therapeutic strategy. ABSTRACT Osteoporosis, a common metabolic bone disorder linked

The Role of Mammalian Glial Cells in Circadian Rhythm Regulation
Circadian rhythms are biological oscillations with a period of about 24 hours. These rhythms are maintained by an innate genetically determined time-keeping system called the circadian clock.

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.

Asynchronous Rhythm of Steroidogenic Factor 1 and Period Homolog 2 mRNA Expression in Mouse Y1 Adrenocorticol Tumor Cells [PDF]
The relationship between the expression of Steroidogenic factor 1 (Sf1) and the circadian-related gene, period homolog 2 (Per2), in the adrenal cortex is still unknown.

Forebrain Origins of Glutamatergic Innervation to the Rat Paraventricular Nucleus of the Hypothalamus: Differential Inputs to the Anterior Versus Posterior Subregions [PDF]
The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) regulates numerous homeostatic systems and functions largely under the influence of forebrain inputs. Glutamate is a major neurotransmitter in forebrain, and glutamate neurosignaling in the PVN is known to ...

The Suprachiasmatic Nucleus, Circadian Clocks, and the Liver [PDF]
The circadian clock system adapts phasic physiological activities, such as sleeping and eating, to environmental cycles. The “master clock” is in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) and the principal cue (Zeitgeber) is the light–dark cycle, around which most mammalian (and those of all living organisms) functions have evolved.
