Environmental Light Controls the Daily Organization of Breathing by Activating Brn3b-expressing Intrinsically Photosensitive Retinal Ganglion Cells in Mice
Journal of Biological Rhythms, Ahead of Print. <br/>Rhythmic, daily fluctuations in minute ventilation are controlled by the endogenous circadian clock located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). While light serves as a potent synchronizer for t...

Transient Cooling Resets Circadian Rhythms of Locomotor Activity in Lizards
Journal of Biological Rhythms, Ahead of Print. <br/>Animals frequently experience temperature fluctuations in their natural life cycle, including periods of low temperatures below their activity range. For example, poikilothermic animals are known...

Menstrual Cycle Variations in Wearable-Detected Finger Temperature and Heart Rate, But Not in Sleep Metrics, in Young and Midlife Individuals
Journal of Biological Rhythms, Ahead of Print. <br/>Most studies about the menstrual cycle are laboratory-based, in small samples, with infrequent sampling, and limited to young individuals. Here, we use wearable and diary-based data to investigat...

Transcriptomic Plasticity of the Circadian Clock in Response to Photoperiod: A Study in Male Melatonin-Competent Mice
Journal of Biological Rhythms, Ahead of Print. <br/>Seasonal daylength, or circadian photoperiod, is a pervasive environmental signal that profoundly influences physiology and behavior. In mammals, the central circadian clock resides in the suprac...

Practical Advice on Measuring and Applying Light for Laboratory Mammals
Journal of Biological Rhythms, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 323-330, August 2024. <br/>Light is recognized as an important component of the environment for laboratory animals. It supports vision, sets the phase of circadian clocks, and drives wide-ran...

Deciphering a Beetle Clock: Individual and Sex-Dependent Variation in Daily Activity Patterns
Journal of Biological Rhythms, Ahead of Print. <br/>Circadian clocks are inherent to most organisms, including cryptozoic animals that seldom encounter direct light, and regulate their daily activity cycles. A conserved suite of clock genes underp...

Toward an Indoor Lighting Solution for Social Jet Lag
Journal of Biological Rhythms, Ahead of Print. <br/>There is growing interest in developing artificial lighting that stimulates intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) to entrain circadian rhythms to improve mood, sleep, and h...

A Detailed Re-Examination of the Period Gene Rescue Experiments Shows That Four to Six Cryptochrome-Positive Posterior Dorsal Clock Neurons (DN1p) of Drosophila melanogaster Can Control Morning and Evening Activity
Journal of Biological Rhythms, Ahead of Print. <br/>Animal circadian clocks play a crucial role in regulating behavioral adaptations to daily environmental changes. The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster exhibits 2 prominent peaks of activity in th...
