Circadian clock- and feeding-dependent regulation of translation initiation and elongation in the liver

Circadian rhythms allow organisms to anticipate and adapt to periodic environmental changes related to the day-night cycle. These rhythms originate from a genetic network ticking in almost every cell of our body and the coordination between different organ ...

Systems Chronobiology: Global Analysis of Gene Regulation in a 24-Hour Periodic World

Felix Naef, Jake Yeung, Jérôme Mermet

Mammals have evolved an internal timing system, the circadian clock, which synchronizes physiology and behavior to the daily light and dark cycles of the Earth. The master clock, located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the brain, takes fluctuating ...

Transcriptional regulatory logic of the diurnal cycle in the mouse liver

Matteo Dal Peraro, Bart Deplancke, Felix Naef, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Benjamin Dieter Weger, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Nouria Hernandez, Irina Krier, Guillaume Rey, Alexandra Styliani Kalantzi, Jonathan Aryeh Sobel

Many organisms exhibit temporal rhythms in gene expression that propel diurnal cycles in physiology. In the liver of mammals, these rhythms are controlled by transcription-translation feedback loops of the core circadian clock and by feeding-fasting cycles ...

Gender-specific alteration of energy balance and circadian locomotor activity in the Crtc1 knockout mouse model of depression

Pierre Magistretti, Jean-Marie Petit, Benjamin Boutrel, Jean-René Cardinaux, Daniel Sciarra

Obesity and depression are major public health concerns, and there is increasing evidence that they share etiological mechanisms. CREB-regulated transcription coactivator 1 (CRTC1) participates in neurobiological pathways involved in both mood and energy b ...

Timing by rhythms: Daily clocks and developmental rulers

Andrew Charles Oates

Biological rhythms are widespread, allowing organisms to temporally organize their behavior and metabolism in advantageous ways. Such proper timing of molecular and cellular events is critical to their development and health. This is best understood in the ...

Circadian rhythm and cell cycle

Rosamaria Cannavo

Circadian rhythms are biological processes found in most living organisms, displaying a roughly 24-hour period, responding primarily to light darkness cycles in an organism's environment. At the cellular level, the circa-24h rhythmicity is generated by a m ...

Circadian rhythms in physiology and behavior are modulated by external factors such as light or temperature. We studied whether self-selected office lighting during the habitual waking period had a different impact on alertness, cognitive performance and h ...

Proteomics and circadian rhythms: It's all about signaling!

Loïc Dayon, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Martin Kussmann, Daniel Alain Dominique Marie Mauvoisin

Proteomic technologies using MS offer new perspectives in circadian biology, in particular the possibility to study PTMs. To date, only very few studies have been carried out to decipher the rhythmicity of protein expression in mammals with large-scale pro ...

24-hour cycles of light and dark are one of the most significant factors in the built environment that affect human health and wellbeing. In addition to stimulating visual responses, light induces a range of circadian, physiological and behavioral response ...
