Download or read book Circadian Rhythms and Their Impact on Aging written by S. Michal Jazwinski and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biological rhythms time the ebb and flow of virtually every physiological process, and their mutual coordination guarantees the integrity of the organism over space and time. Aging leads to the disintegration of this coordination, as well as to changes in the amplitude and/or frequency of the underlying rhythms. The results of this are accelerated loss of health during aging, and in experimental model systems curtailed lifespan occurs. This book will examine the machinery that constitutes circadian systems and how they impact physiologic processes. It will also discuss how disturbances of circadian rhythms can lead to complex diseases associated with aging. Much of this treatment will focus on metabolism and genome stability. Importantly, the chapters in this book will encompass work in several different models, in addition to human. The book will conclude with a discussion of modeling approaches to biologic cycles and chronotherapy, for future research and translation.

Download or read book Neurospora written by Rowland H. Davis and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2000-08-17 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will serve as the definitive reference work on the basic physiology, biochemistry, development, genetics, and molecular biology of Neurospora, together with a description of basic laboratory methods. Among the filamentous fungi, Neurospora is a basic model organism, used initially in the establishment of the one-gene, one-enzyme principle, and it has become a favored research organism in a variety of biological problems since that time. Until now, there has been no standard guide to the organism. The book reviews early research since 1927 and describes the current state of the major research programs now being pursued. Each chapter includes detailed literature references for the scholar and experimentalist. Both researchers in the filamentous fungi and biologists requiring information about Neurospora will find this an invaluable resource because it gathers 75 years of scattered research literature into a coherent account.

Download or read book Uncovering the Circadian Output Pathways of Neurospora Crassa written by Michael William Vitalini and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ubiquity of circadian systems has allowed their characterization in a broad range of model systems, which has greatly improved knowledge of how these systems are organized and the vast range of cellular and organismal processes under circadian control. Most of the advances, however, have come in describing the central oscillators of these systems, and, in some cases, the input pathways used to coordinate these oscillators to external time. Very little progress has been made in understanding the output pathways that allow circadian systems to regulate the breadth of processes shown to be clock-controlled. A genetic selection was designed to obtain mutations in genes involved in circadian regulated expression of the Neurospora crassa ccg-1 and ccg-2 genes. Some, but not all, of the strains obtained display altered regulation of more than one ccg as well as an 'Eas-like' appearance on solid media, and altered circadian period on race tubes. The data suggest a model in which output from the clock to these two genes is through a single, bifurcated pathway. The cloning of the gene mutated (rrg-1) in one of the strains from the above selection led to the first molecular description of a circadian output pathway in Neurospora, the HOG MAP kinase pathway. The HOG pathway has been previously described with regard to its role in the osmotic-stress response. The discovery of the involvement of rrg-1 in circadian regulation of ccg-1 and ccg-2 led to the discovery of regulation of the HOG pathway by the circadian clock. The data indicate that osmotic stress information and time-of-day information are transduced through the HOG pathway and implicate a role for the clock in preparing the organism for daily occurrences of hyperosmotic stress associated with sun exposure. The genetic selection, and the description of the HOG pathway with regard to circadian output, provide a basis for further characterization of circadian output in Neurospora. The ubiquity of MAP kinase pathways, such as the HOG pathway, and the observed similarities in the mechanisms of circadian clock function across multiple phyla, indicate that these findings may well be applicable to other model systems.

Download or read book Hypothalamic Integration of Circadian Rhythms written by R.M. Buijs and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1996-12-03 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Summer School of Brain Research, on which this book is based, was organized by the Netherlands Institute for Brain research (NIBR), which has a rich history dating back to the beginning of the century. The focus of interest in this present volume of Progress in Brain Research are the few thousand neurons at the base of the hypothalamus that form the biological clock. Attention is focused on the mechanisms underlying the generation of circadian rhythmicity within our biological clock, which is still far from understood. Contributions originating from many disciplines give updates on the latest theories on the molecular and electrophysiological basis of the pacemaker mechanism, and the various approaches used in different species. Attention is also paid to the way the signal of the biological clock is transferred to the rest of the central nervous system. New data on the role of the suprachiasmatic nucleus and its impact on the functioning of the human being is presented. Altogether an excellent volume which will further the understanding of this elusive material.
