Rhythmic gene expression is found throughout the central nervous system. This harmonized
regulation can be dependent on-and independent of-the master regulator of biological …

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

How dopamine signaling regulates biological rhythms is an area of emerging interest. Here
we review experiments focused on delineating dopamine signaling in the suprachiasmatic …

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 …

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 …

Daily rhythms of food anticipatory activity (FAA) are regulated independently of the
suprachiasmatic nucleus, which mediates entrainment of rhythms to light, but the neural …

For an organism to be successful in an evolutionary sense, it and its offspring must survive.
Such survival depends on satisfying a number of needs that are driven by motivated …

Circadian rhythms organize behavior and physiological processes to be appropriate to the
predictable cycle of daily events. These rhythms are entrained by stimuli that provide time of …

Background Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a major health issue in aged populations, and
neurogenic ED is particularly difficult to treat. Novel therapeutic approaches are needed for …

Circadian activity rhythms are jointly controlled by a master pacemaker in the hypothalamic
suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) and by food-entrainable circadian oscillators (FEOs) located …
