Circadian molecular clock in lung pathophysiology.
Disrupted daily or circadian rhythms of lung function and inflammatory responses are common features of chronic airway diseases. At the molecular level these circadian rhythms depend on the activity of an autoregulatory feedback loop oscillator of clock gene transcription factors, including the BMAL1:CLOCK activator complex and the repressors PERIOD and CRYPTOCHROME. The key nuclear receptors a...
متن کاملMolecular Mechanisms Underlying the Arabidopsis Circadian Clock
A wide range of biological processes exhibit circadian rhythm, enabling plants to adapt to the environmental day-night cycle. This rhythm is generated by the so-called 'circadian clock'. Although a number of genetic approaches have identified >25 clock-associated genes involved in the Arabidopsis clock mechanism, the molecular functions of a large part of these genes are not known. Recent compr...
متن کاملMolecular architecture of the mammalian circadian clock.
Circadian clocks coordinate physiology and behavior with the 24h solar day to provide temporal homeostasis with the external environment. The molecular clocks that drive these intrinsic rhythmic changes are based on interlocked transcription/translation feedback loops that integrate with diverse environmental and metabolic stimuli to generate internal 24h timing. In this review we highlight rec...
متن کاملMolecular signals of Mammalian circadian clock.
The circadian rhythm is originally generated by a transcription-translation based oscillatory loop composed of a set of clock genes in most organisms. The clock gene oscillation is generated by the core loop in each neuron of the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus. Phosphorylation and ubiquitination of clock proteins play the crucial role for the rhythmic transcription of clock genes. The cor...
متن کاملMolecular components of the Mammalian circadian clock.
Mammals synchronize their circadian activity primarily to the cycles of light and darkness in the environment. This is achieved by ocular photoreception relaying signals to the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the hypothalamus. Signals from the SCN cause the synchronization of independent circadian clocks throughout the body to appropriate phases. Signals that can entrain these peripheral clock...
