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.

Night‐to‐night rapid eye movement sleep variability: A relevant marker of early amyloid‐β deposition
Abstract INTRODUCTION Sleep disturbances are prevalent in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and may emerge before overt clinical symptoms. We characterized sleep alterations in cognitively unimpaired older adults with cerebral amyloid deposition, and assessed their associations with regional amyloid deposition and cognitive and psychoaffective ...

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.

Mouse circadian plasma leptin and active ghrelin rhythms under ad libitum and scheduled feeding [PDF]
Thesis (M.S.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2007Light is the strongest timing cue for the circadian system, but non-photic cues can also entrain the master circadian clock, i.e., suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN).

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophin receptors modulate glutamate-induced phase shifts of the suprachiasmatic nucleus [PDF]
Light information reaches the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) through a subpopulation of retinal ganglion cells. Previous work raised the possibility that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and its high-affinity tropomyosin-related receptor kinase ...

Study Design: A randomized controlled trial conducted with 60 Parkinson's patients (30 intervention, 30 control). Intervention: An 8‐session color therapy program using purple, yellow, and orange lights (15 minutes each; total 45 minutes per session). Protocol: 3 sessions/week in the first two weeks, followed by 1 session/week in the fifth and seventh ...

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

Network-mediated encoding of circadian time: The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) from genes to neurons to circuits, and back [PDF]
The transcriptional architecture of intracellular circadian clocks is similar across phyla, but in mammals interneuronal mechanisms confer a higher level of circadian integration.

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 ...

Neurocardiovascular deficits in the Q175 mouse model of Huntington's disease. [PDF]
Cardiovascular dysautonomia as well as the deterioration of circadian rhythms are among the earliest detectable pathophysiological changes in individuals with Huntington's disease (HD). Preclinical research requires mouse models that recapitulate disease
