Journal ArticleDOI
Physiology of circadian entrainment.
TL;DR: Several aspects of the mechanisms for photic entrainment of mammalian circadian rhythms are covered, including retinal sensitivity to light by means of novel photopigments as well as circadian variations in the retina that contribute to the regulation of retinal physiology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crosstalk between the circadian clock circuitry and the immune system.

TL;DR: The circadian-immune connection is bidirectional, because in addition to this circadian control of immune functions, immune challenges and immune mediators were shown to have strong effects on circadian rhythms at the molecular, cellular, and behavioral levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Melatonin effects on behavior: possible mediation by the central GABAergic system.
TL;DR: The effects of melatonin in rodent behavior are described, focusing on inhibitory effects (sedation, hypnotic activity, pain perception threshold elevation), and direct effects on circadian rhythmicity (entrainment, resynchronization, alleviation of jet-lag symptoms, phase-shifting).
Journal ArticleDOI
Circadian and Sleep Disorders in Parkinson’s Disease
TL;DR: The role of dopamine in regulation of sleep and alertness is reviewed and main sleep and circadian disturbances associated with PD are discussed and increasing body of evidence suggests that the circadian system becomes dysregulated in PD, which may lead to poor sleep and Alertness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of lockdown on human sleep and chronotype during the COVID-19 pandemic.
TL;DR: It is shown that participants slept longer and later during lockdown weekdays, and exhibited lower levels of social jetlag, which may seem to be an overall improvement of sleep conditions.
