"Varying the frequency of either the cell cycle, through ambient light, or the circadian clock, through genetic mutations, validated the underlying principle. It is striking to see examples in ...

Cyanobacteria, an ancient lineage of bacteria that perform photosynthesis, have been found to regulate their genes using the ...

Circadian regulation is the control of the cyclic variation of physiological processes over a 24 hour cycle. The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the brain is understood to be the 'master ...

This will improve how we identify distinct cell types and subpopulations, a task often complicated by the influence of circadian rhythms or the cell cycle. These tools could enhance the accuracy of ...

The circadian clock plays a key role in coordinating many biological processes from behaviors to cellular metabolism and mitosis. Disruption of circadian rhythms can increase susceptibility to ...

Shifting circadian ... cycle, our hormones, our body temperatures, our moods, when we get hungry, digestion, immune function and more. And they’re affected by how we spend our days — when we eat, when ...

but experts say the semi-annual hubbub provides an opportunity to reflect on an even more important cycle: the circadian rhythm. Most Canadians are set to turn their clocks back an hour on the ...

It really is like clockwork. Their calls to abolish daylight time have largely been fruitless, but experts say the semi-annual hubbub provides an opportunity to reflect on an even more important cycle ...
