The nearly ubiquitous expression of endogenous 24 h oscillations known as circadian
rhythms regulate the timing of physiological functions in the body. These intrinsic rhythms …

Most organisms evolved endogenous, so called circadian clocks as internal timekeeping
mechanisms allowing them to adapt to recurring changes in environmental demands …

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 …

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

The circadian clock is a highly conserved timing system, resonating physiological processes
to 24-hour environmental cycles. Circadian misalignment is emerging as a risk factor of …

Diets and feeding regimens affect many physiological systems in the organism and may
contribute to the development or prevention of various pathologies including cardiovascular …

Food anticipation and its behavioural manifestation, food anticipatory activity (FAA), require
entrainment of a suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) independent circadian mechanism, a food …

Context: It has long been recognized that a “biological clock” residing in the suprachiasmatic
nucleus controls circadian or daily variations in physiological processes. Old observations …

In rodents, daily feeding schedules induce food anticipatory activity (FAA) rhythms with
formal properties suggesting mediation by food-entrained circadian oscillators (FEOs). The …

The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) integrates light and systemic signals from peripheral
tissues to coordinate physiology and behavior daily rhythms. However, the contribution that …
