Feeding, which is essential for all animals, is regulated by homeostatic mechanisms. In
addition, food consumption is temporally coordinated by the brain over the circadian (~ 24 h) …

The circadian timing system governs daily biological rhythms, synchronising physiology and
behaviour to the temporal world. External time cues, including the light‐dark cycle and …

In mammals, endogenous circadian clocks sense and respond to daily feeding and lighting
cues, adjusting internal∼ 24 h rhythms to resonate with, and anticipate, external cycles of …

Circadian rhythms influence most of our life activities, notably getting up and going to sleep
every day. The new edition of this book delves into the mechanisms surrounding how these …

Numerous long-term studies have investigated the circadian clock system in mammals,
which organizes physiological functions, including metabolism, digestion, and absorption of …

In order to assess the contribution of a central clock in the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic
nucleus (SCN) to circadian behavior and the organization of peripheral clocks, we …

Salient cues, such as the rising sun or availability of food, entrain biological clocks for
behavioral adaptation. The mechanisms underlying entrainment to food availability remain …

The circadian clock system in mammals plays a fundamental role in maintaining
homeostasis. Entrainment is an important characteristic of the internal clock, by which …

The food-entrainable oscillator (FEO) is a mysterious circadian clock because its anatomical
location (s) and molecular timekeeping mechanism are unknown. Food anticipatory activity …

Feeding schedules entrain circadian clocks in multiple brain regions and most peripheral
organs and tissues, thereby synchronizing daily rhythms of foraging behavior and …
