Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-Wide Profiling of the Core Clock Protein BMAL1 Targets Reveals a Strict Relationship with Metabolism

TL;DR: It is revealed that, in addition to E-boxes, the CCAATG element contributes to elicit robust circadian expression and is a useful resource to decipher the network of circadian gene control and its intimate links with several fundamental physiological functions.
Journal ArticleDOI

GABA-mediated repulsive coupling between circadian clock neurons in the SCN encodes seasonal time

TL;DR: It is shown that increasing day-length changes the pattern of chloride transporter expression, yielding more excitatory GABA synaptic input, and that blocking GABAA signaling or the chloride transporter disrupts the unique phase and period organization induced by the day length.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel protein, CHRONO, functions as a core component of the mammalian circadian clock.

TL;DR: Two independent studies, one of them using a computational approach, identified CHRONO, a gene shown to modulate the activity of circadian transcription factors and alter circadian behavior in mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distinct roles for GABA across multiple timescales in mammalian circadian timekeeping.

TL;DR: This work proposes the existence of two types of differentially regulated GABA signaling—fast signaling that regulates neuronal output, and slow signaling that modulates synchrony between neurons—a hypothesis that can explain many previous experimental results and provides an important tool for circadian research.
Journal ArticleDOI

The choroid plexus is an important circadian clock component.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the choroid plexus displays oscillations more robust than the SCN and that can be described as a Poincaré oscillator with negative twist, thus finely tuning behavioral circadian rhythms.
