Journal ArticleDOI

Time-Restricted Feeding without Reducing Caloric Intake Prevents Metabolic Diseases in Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet

TL;DR: Mice under tRF consume equivalent calories from HFD as those with ad lib access yet are protected against obesity, hyperinsulinemia, hepatic steatosis, and inflammation and have improved motor coordination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of circadian behaviour and metabolism by REV-ERB-α and REV-ERB-β

TL;DR: The cistromic analysis reveals a more profound connection between BMAL1 and the REV-ERB-α and REB-β genomic regulatory circuits than was previously suspected and indicates a more integral mechanism for the coordination of circadian rhythm and metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Circadian clock protein cryptochrome regulates the expression of proinflammatory cytokines.

TL;DR: It is shown that absence of the core clock component protein cryptochrome (CRY) leads to constitutive elevation of proinflammatory cytokines in a cell-autonomous manner, and that CRY1 binds to adenylyl cyclase and limits cAMP production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inducible ablation of melanopsin-expressing retinal ganglion cells reveals their central role in non-image forming visual responses.

TL;DR: The results point to the mRGCs as the site of functional integration of the rod/cone and melanopsin phototransduction pathways and as the primary anatomical site for the divergence of image-forming and non-image forming photoresponses in mammals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Melanopsin Contributions to Irradiance Coding in the Thalamo-Cortical Visual System

TL;DR: Neurophysiological and anatomical studies identify melanopsin expressing retinal ganglion cells (mRGCs) as a major source of information in the mouse visual system.
