Immunohistochemical Identification of Oxytocin Neurons in the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus of the Male and Female Albino Rats: A Morphometrical Study [PDF]
The Egyptian Journal of Histology, 2019 Background: The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is one of the nuclei in the anterior hypothalamus superior to the optic chiasma. It is well known that vasopressin and oxytocin neurons are located in the hypothalamic para-ventricular and the supraoptic ...

Nature Communications, 2021 It is unclear how circadian signals from the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) are decoded to generate daily rhythms in hormone release. Here, the authors show that daily corticosterone release depends on coordinated clock gene and neuronal activity rhythms ...

A Journey in the Brain’s Clock: In Vivo Veritas?
Biology, 2023 The suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) of the hypothalamus contain the circadian pacemaker that coordinates mammalian rhythms in tune with the day-night cycle.

Long-lasting effects of sepsis on circadian rhythms in the mouse. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Daily patterns of activity and physiology are termed circadian rhythms and are driven primarily by an endogenous biological timekeeping system, with the master clock located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus.

Nature Communications, 2020 Cell groups in the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic clock contribute to the genesis of circadian rhythms. The authors identified two populations of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide-expressing neurons in the suprachiasmatic nucleus which regulate locomotor ...

Ablation of microglia does not alter circadian rhythm of locomotor activity
Molecular Brain, 2023 Microglia, as macrophages in the brain, are responsible for immune responses and synaptic remodeling. Although the function of microglia is regulated by circadian rhythms, it is still unclear whether microglia are involved in the generation and light ...

Rhythmic firing patterns in SCN: The role of circuit interactions [PDF]
, 1995 The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is believed to contain the main generator of circadian rhythmicity in mammals. In order to obtain further functional details of this, electrophysiological extracellular measurements in vitro were made.

Masking effect in rats bearing partial lesions of the suprachiasmatic nucleus
Sleep Science, 2010 Background and objective: To explore the role of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) for masking by light in rats bearing bilateral complete or partial lesions of the suprachiasmatic nucleus. Methods: Rats were submitted to electrolytic SCN

In Synch but Not in Step: Circadian Clock Circuits Regulating Plasticity in Daily Rhythms [PDF]
, 2016 The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is a network of neural oscillators that program daily rhythms in mammalian behavior and physiology. Over the last decade much has been learned about how SCN clock neurons coordinate together in time and space to form a ...
