Sleep is widely believed to play an essential role in synaptic plasticity. However, the precise
mechanisms governing this presumptive function are largely unknown. There is also …

The circadian system is an endogenous biological network responsible for coordinating
near-24-h cycles in behavior and physiology with daily timing cues from the external …

Circadian rhythms refer to oscillations in biological processes with a period of approximately
24 h. In addition to the sleep/wake cycle, there are circadian rhythms in metabolism, body …

Over the years it has become crystal clear that a variety of processes encode time-of-day
information, ranging from gene expression, protein stability, or subcellular localization of key …

A number of years ago we reported that ventral Lateral Neurons (LNvs), which are essential
in the control of rest-activity cycles in Drosophila, undergo circadian remodeling of their …

The circadian timing system orchestrates daily variations in physiology and behavior
through coordination of multioscillatory cell networks that are highly plastic in responding to …

Over the years it has become clear that the biological clock acts at different levels, ranging
from the control of gene expression, protein stability, or subcellular localization of key …

Previous studies have shown that the morphology of the neuromuscular junction of the flight
motor neuron MN5 in Drosophila melanogaster undergoes daily rhythmical changes, with …

Neurons have an enormous capacity to adapt to changing conditions through the regulation
of gene expression, morphology, and physiology. In the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster …

Exposure therapy remains a gold standard for the treatment of fear-based mental disorders,
