The nearly ubiquitous expression of endogenous 24 h oscillations known as circadian
rhythms regulate the timing of physiological functions in the body. These intrinsic rhythms …

The endogenous timekeeping system evolved to anticipate the time of the day through the
24 hours cycle of the Earth's rotation. In mammals, the circadian clock governs rhythmic …

Daily rhythms of food anticipatory activity (FAA) are regulated independently of the
suprachiasmatic nucleus, which mediates entrainment of rhythms to light, but the neural …

Circadian rhythms are the product of the interaction of molecular clocks and environmental
signals, such as light-dark cycles and eating-fasting cycles. Several studies have …

Background In rodent models, caloric restriction (CR) with maintenance of adequate
micronutrient supply has been reported to increase lifespan and to reduce age‐induced …

The ability to tell time relative to predictable feeding opportunities has a long history of
research, going back more than 100 years with behavioral observations of honeybees and …

Circadian clocks in many brain regions and peripheral tissues are entrained by the daily
rhythm of food intake. Clocks in one or more of these locations generate a daily rhythm of …

Circadian rhythms are entrained by light and influenced by non-photic stimuli, such as
feeding. The activity preceding scheduled mealtimes, food anticipatory activity (FAA), is …

Networks of neurons control feeding and activity patterns by integrating internal metabolic
signals of energy balance with external environmental cues such as time-of-day. Proper …

The excitatory action of gamma-aminobutyric-acid (GABA) in the median-eminence (ME) led
to the steady-state release of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) from CRH axon …
