Furthermore, bacterial circadian rhythms may affect the bugs ... but their cyclical behavior may somehow help them colonize the human intestine, the study authors theorize.

Circadian rhythms are the cycles that tell the body when to sleep, wake, and eat—the biological and psychological processes that oscillate in predictable patterns each day. This internal clock ...

But what if the problem isn’t how long you’re sleeping — but when? Enter your circadian rhythm, your body’s natural 24-hour clock that governs everything from when you feel alert to when ...

The signals appear at appropriate times, thanks to the circadian clock. Using rhythmic environmental cues such as light, the circadian clock sets up a 24-hour internal oscillation that is replicated ...

The circadian clock plays a key role in coordinating many biological processes from behaviors to cellular metabolism and mitosis. Disruption of circadian rhythms can increase susceptibility to ...

Genetic and environmental disruptions to circadian clocks accelerate the progression of colorectal cancer in organoids and mice, University of California, Irvine, researchers report in an August 10 ...

BMAL1 is a core circadian rhythm protein, responsible for regulating biological processes like sleep-wake cycles, metabolism, and hormone release. HIF2A helps the body adapt to hypoxia—low ...

Circadian rhythms are driven by internal body clocks that are found throughout the body. Laboratories in this area study the mechanisms of circadian signaling that occurs in various brain regions, and ...
