Researchers have developed a new, data driven approach to reveal the topology of networks connected to the circadian clock.
Researchers report just one night of sleep loss can have a tissue specific impact on metabolism and the regulation of gene expression. The study could explain why those who suffer chronic sleep loss or work shifts are at greater risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes.
A new study sheds light on how the circadian clock controls inflammatory response. By understanding the link between inflammation and circadian rhythm, researchers believe it may be most effective to target specific conditions at certain times of the day. The findings may also explain why those who experience body clock disruptions are more susceptible to inflammatory conditions.
Researchers have unlocked a cure for jet lag by activating VIP neurons in the suprachiasmatic nucleus.
Researchers have identified a dual role for a gene associated with sleep and wakefulness regulation.
A new study reports people living in areas with more sun light have lower rates of OCD.
Researchers report metabolic disruptions often seen in shift workers are not influenced by the brain's circadian rhythm, but by peripheral oscillators in the liver, gut and pancreas.
A new study reports NFL teams perform better during night time games, thanks to a circadian advantage. Winning teams who play late evening games have fewer turnovers and players had better circadian regulated awareness than those who play in afternoon games, researchers report.
Researchers report proteins associated with immunity and metabolism can become disrupted following just one simulated night shift.
Researchers have found an association between the Per2 gene and breast cancer. The Per2 gene plays an important role in both the body's circadian clock and mammary gland development.
