Article Synopsis
  • - The circadian clock system regulates various bodily functions in a 24-hour cycle and disruptions can lead to conditions like obesity and Type 2 diabetes.
  • - This study investigates how the spatial arrangement of the genome changes in response to diet, particularly how it affects circadian transcription in liver cells of lean and obese mice.
  • - Findings reveal daily changes in chromatin interactions linked to metabolic genes, showing that high-fat diets modify gene expression through specific regulatory mechanisms that help the body adapt its metabolism to dietary changes.

The aim was to evaluate the effect of perinatal BPA exposure of one or both parents on the implantation index and expression of talin, occludin and E-cadherin in the uterine epithelial cells (UEC) of the offspring. Pregnant Wistar dams (F0) received BPA or vehicle from gestational day (GD) 6 to lactation day 21. F1 animals were mated forming four groups: Control dam-Control sire (C♀-C♂), BPA dam -Control sire (B♀-C♂), Control dam -BPA sire (C♀-B♂), BPA dam -BPA sire (B♀-B♂).
