  • Title: Circadian clocks of the kidney: function, mechanism, and regulation.
    Author: Costello HM, Johnston JG, Juffre A, Crislip GR, Gumz ML.
    Journal: Physiol Rev; 2022 Oct 01; 102(4):1669-1701. PubMed ID: 35575250.
    Abstract:
    An intrinsic cellular circadian clock is located in nearly every cell of the body. The peripheral circadian clocks within the cells of the kidney contribute to the regulation of a variety of renal processes. In this review, we summarize what is currently known regarding the function, mechanism, and regulation of kidney clocks. Additionally, the effect of extrarenal physiological processes, such as endocrine and neuronal signals, on kidney function is also reviewed. Circadian rhythms in renal function are an integral part of kidney physiology, underscoring the importance of considering time of day as a key biological variable. The field of circadian renal physiology is of tremendous relevance, but with limited physiological and mechanistic information on the kidney clocks this is an area in need of extensive investigation.
