Day and Night: Circadian Rhythms in Worms
Most organisms seem to show ‘‘circadian rhythms’’—cycles of behaviour or gene expression that repeat roughly every 24 hours. Such cycles represent an internal circadian clock that can be ‘‘entrained,’’ or synchronized, to a regular light/dark or temperature cycle, and will then continue to cycle in the absence of the light or temperature stimulus. In the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans, ho...
متن کاملStress and Arousal Circadian Rhythms in Smokers and Non-smokers Working Day and Night Shifts
Twenty smokers and twenty non-smokers completed a brief Mood State Questionnaire every 2 hours, over one day shift and one night shift. The subjects comprised male police ocers and factory workers, aged 23±57 years. Cigarette smokers reported signi®cantly higher stress levels than non-smokers on both day and night shifts p < 0:05. This con®rms previous ®ndings that smokers are often more str...

Different subjects d...
متن کاملMyopia, Light and Circadian Rhythms
Myopia has been investigated scientifically for over a century but the search for an effective remedy has been manifestly unsuccessful. The prevalence of myopia in developed societies has now risen to about 30% in USA (Vitale, Sperduto et al. 2009) and up to 70% in some Asian centres (Lin, Shih et al. 2004). In addition to the socio-economic burden of providing optical corrections for myopia, c...
متن کاملCircadian disruption induced by light-at-night accelerates aging and promotes tumorigenesis in rats
We evaluated the effect of various light/dark regimens on the survival, life span and tumorigenesis in rats. Two hundred eight male and 203 females LIO rats were subdivided into 4 groups and kept at various light/dark regimens: standard 12:12 light/dark (LD); natural lighting of the North-West of Russia (NL); constant light (LL), and constant darkness (DD) since the age of 25 days until natural...
