Daily Expression of mRNAs for the Mammalian Clock Genes Per2 and Clock in Mouse Suprachiasmatic Nuclei and Liver and Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells
1 Jan 2002
Abstract excerpt
The mammalian circadian clock is located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus and in most peripheral tissues. Clock genes drive the biological clock. However, circadian expression variations of the human clock genes are still unclear. In this study, we analyzed the daily variations of mPer2 and mClock mRNA expression in both the mouse SCN and liver to evaluate the central and peripheral...
