Abstract excerpt
The mammalian circadian timing system consists of a central pacemaker in brain hypothalamus and damping oscillators in most peripheral tissues. To investigate the mechanism that controls circadian rhythms in the mammalian peripheral tissues, we examined the expression rhythm of mPer2, BMAL1, albumin D-site binding protein (DBP), and Rev-erbalpha mRNAs in the heart of homozygous Clock mutant mice on Jcl:ICR...
