MELATONIN CYCLE. “In those with major depressive disorders, disturbances in the amplitude and rhythm of melatonin secretion have been described. These are similar to those described in a range of other sleep or neuropsychiatric disorders associated with disturbed circadian function.” https://lnkd.in/d8BtSnQ View in LinkedIn

AUTHENTIC DISTURBANCE. “Sleep and circadian rhythm disruption (SCRD) is a common feature in many neuropsychiatric diseases including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression. Although the precise mechanisms remain unclear, recent evidence suggests that this comorbidity is not simply a product of medication or an absence of social routine, but instead reflects commonly affected underlying pathways and mechanisms.” https://lnkd.in/dH79_u3 View in LinkedIn

NEUROPSYCH. “Sleep and circadian rhythm disruption has been widely observed in neuropsychiatric disorders including schizophrenia and often precedes related symptoms. However, mechanistic basis for this association remains unknown.” https://lnkd.in/dacTwM5 View in LinkedIn

ACROSS TAXA. “It is important to note that exposure to light at night is not just a human issue. Many plant and animal species are affected by nighttime light exposure, as lighting from infrastructure strays into the atmosphere creating a general nighttime glow termed light pollution. Unnatural exposure to light at night may have significant ecological implications.” https://lnkd.in/dH6Ha79 View in LinkedIn

CYCLIC FUNCTIONS. “The daily patterns of behaviors, including the sleep-wake, rest-activity, and fasting-feeding cycles, influence the daily fluctuations of gastric pH, gastric emptying, gastrointestinal transit time, organ blood flow, liver enzyme activity, and renal function.” https://lnkd.in/dK-Nfr2 View in LinkedIn

CHRONOTHERAPY IN CANCER. “Cancer chronotherapy, based on the circadian activity of the xenobiotic detoxification system and on daytime-dependent drug tolerability, has also delivered its first promising results.” http://www.smw.ch/content/smw-2014-13984/ View in LinkedIn
