Distinct ipRGC subpopulations mediate light’s acute and circadian effects on body temperature and sleep

open access: yeseLife, 2019
The light environment greatly impacts human alertness, mood, and cognition by both acute regulation of physiology and indirect alignment of circadian rhythms. These processes require the melanopsin-expressing intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion

The neurochemical basis of photic entrainment of the circadian pacemaker [PDF]

open access: yes
Circadian rhythmicity in mammals is controlled by the action of a light-entrainable hypothalamus, in association with two cell clusters known as the supra chiasmatic nuclei (SCN).

Alpha-synuclein expression in oxytocin neurons of young and old bovine brains

open access: yesThe Journal of Reproduction and Development
Understanding of central nervous system mechanisms underlying age-related infertility remains limited. Fibril α-synuclein, distinct from its monomeric form, is implicated in age-related diseases. Notably, fibril α-synuclein spreads among neurons,

Affective and cognitive prefrontal cortex projections to the lateral habenula in humans

open access: yes, 2014
Anterior insula (AI) and dACC are known to process information about pain, loss, adversities, bad, harmful or suboptimal choices and consequences that threaten survival or well-being.

Investigating the Relationship Between Circadian Rhythm and Learning-Memory

open access: yesTürk Uyku Tıbbı Dergisi
The circadian rhythm creates many metabolic changes in our body by influencing the activities of suprachiasmatic nucleus and other centers in the cerebrum according to the light-dark conditions within a 24-hour period.

The circadian system alters thermoregulation depending on the time of day and feeding condition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The circadian rhythm of body temperature (Tb) is a well-known phenomenon. However, it is unknown how the circadian system affects thermoregulation. Food deprivation in mice induces a greater reduction of Tb particularly in the light phase.

CNS Control of Glucose Metabolism: Response to Environmental Challenges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Over the last 15 years, considerable work has accumulated to support the role of the CNS in regulating postprandial glucose levels. As discussed in the first section of this review, the CNS receives and integrates information from afferent neurons ...
