  • Title: The circadian clock: a framework linking metabolism, epigenetics and neuronal function.
    Author: Masri S, Sassone-Corsi P.
    Journal: Nat Rev Neurosci; 2013 Jan; 14(1):69-75. PubMed ID: 23187814.
    Abstract:
    The circadian clock machinery is responsible for biological timekeeping on a systemic level. The central clock system controls peripheral clocks through a number of output cues that synchronize the system as a whole. There is growing evidence that changing cellular metabolic states have important effects on circadian rhythms and can thereby influence neuronal function and disease. Epigenetic control has also been implicated in the modulation of biological timekeeping, and cellular metabolism and epigenetic state seem to be closely linked. We discuss the idea that cellular metabolic state and epigenetic mechanisms might work through the circadian clock to regulate neuronal function and influence disease states.
