An essential role for peptidergic signalling in the control of circadian rhythms in the suprachiasmatic nuclei.

Journal of neuroendocrinology - 1 Apr 2003

Harmar A J

Abstract excerpt

Two structurally related neuropeptides, pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP), colocalized with glutamate in neurones of the retinohypothalamic tract, and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), present in light-responsive cells of the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN), appear to play distinct and important roles in the control of mammalian circadian rhythms. Mice deficient in the PACAP-selective...
