Glowing, blinking bacteria reveal how cells synchronize biological clocks
Biologists have long known that organisms from bacteria to humans use the 24 hour cycle of light and darkness to set their biological clocks. But exactly how these clocks are synchronized at the molecular level to perform ...

Circadian rhythms: Their role and dysfunction in affective disorder
All humans are synchronised to the rhythmic light-dark changes that occur on a daily basis. Rhythms in physiological and biochemical processes and behavioural patterns persist in the absence of all external 24-hour signals ...

Body clock drugs could ease psychiatric disorders and jet lag
UK researchers have successfully used a drug to reset and restart the natural 24 hour body clock of mice in the lab. The ability to do this in a mammal opens up the possibility of dealing with a range of human difficulties ...

Disrupted circadian rhythm may cause triglycerides to rise
When the circadian rhythm gets thrown off, it could come with an unexpected side effect: high triglycerides. The discovery, based on studies in mice with a "broken clock," helps to explain the normal rise and fall in triglycerides, ...

Cell division orchestrated by multiple oscillating proteins, new research finds
(PhysOrg.com) -- New research takes the study of biological rhythms, like the heart beat, to a new level: the cell cycle. Scientists at Rockefeller University have proposed that the orderly succession of events in cell division ...
