A new study reports smoking disrupts the circadian rhythm in both the brain and lungs.
Researchers discover the expression of certain clock genes plays a critical role in delaying the emergence of age-related signs in the brain.
VIP, a molecule which desynchronizes the cells in the biological clock help also helps the circadian clock adjust more quickly to abrupt shifts in light/dark schedules.
Researchers have identified how the circadian clock helps prime mitochondria to correctly use stored energy when we are not eating.
A new study reveals how the production of p75NTR protein oscillates in time with the body's natural circadian rhythm and how these oscillations help regulate vital metabolic functions. The findings offer an insight into how circadian rhythm helps maintain the body's overall metabolic health.
