Circadian rhythms are daily cycles in physiology that can affect medical interventions. This review considers how these rhythms may relate to solid organ transplantation. It begins by summarizing the mechanism for circadian rhythm generation known as the molecular clock, and basic research connecting the clock to biological activities germane to organ acceptance. Next follows a review of clinical evidence relating time of day to adverse transplantation outcomes. The concluding section discusses knowledge gaps and practical areas where applying circadian biology might improve transplantation success.

Thyroid function is closely linked to circadian rhythms, but the relationship between the frequency of night eating and thyroid function remains unclear. Our study aimed to investigate the association between night eating frequency and its impact on thyroid function and sensitivity. This study included 6093 participants from the U.

The circadian cycle is a fundamental biological rhythm that governs many physiological functions across nearly all living organisms. In the gastrointestinal tract, activities such as gut motility, hormone synthesis, and communication between the gut, central nervous system and microbiome all fluctuate in alignment with the circadian cycle. The enteric nervous system (ENS) is critical for co-ordinating many of these activities, however, how its activity is governed by the circadian cycle remains unknown.

Introduction: Circadian rhythms are responsible for physiological and behavioral processes coordinated in a 24-hour cycle. We investigated whether untimed, long-term voluntary wheel access mitigated circadian disruption and facilitated re-entrainment. Methods: Thirty-four C57Bl/6 J mice (n = 21 males, n = 14 females) were used in this experiment.

Cognitive impairment is a significant complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the mechanisms underlying the development of cognitive dysfunction in individuals with T2DM remain elusive. Herein, we discussed the role of Bmal1, a core circadian rhythm-regulating gene, in the process of T2DM-associated cognitive dysfunction.

While Drosophila melanogaster serves as a crucial model for investigating both the circadian clock and gut microbiome, our understanding of their relationship in this organism is still limited. Recent analyses suggested that the Drosophila gut microbiome modulates the host circadian transcriptome to minimize rapid oscillations in response to changing environments. Here, we examined the composition and abundance of the gut microbiota in wild-type and arrhythmic per flies, under 12 h:12 h light: dark (12:12 LD) and constant darkness (DD) conditions.
