Sexually dimorphic influence of the circadian clock gene <i>Bmal1</i> in the striatum on alcohol intake
2020-09-18
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> The gene Bmal1 (brain and muscle Arnt-like 1) plays an obligatory role in the generation of circadian rhythms in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), the master circadian clock in mammals [1–5]. Notably, Bmal1 is widely expressed in mammalian brain [6], and perturbations in Bmal1 expression in select forebrain regions cause behavioral disturbances that are independent of the SCN, such as disturb...
