文摘Circadian rhythm protects neurons:Although the master clock entrains the whole body rhythm,peripheral tissues also express core clock transcription factors Clock and Bmal1,which regulate expression of clock genes including Period(Per)and Cryptochrome(Cry)proteins.Complexes of Per and Cry proteins repress Bmal1-and Clock-mediated transcription forming a negative feedback loop,which regulates nearly a 24 hours self-sustained rhythm including energy metabolism.
