To test whether modulating light patterns reduces shiftwork-induced rest/activity disruptions, 30 male C57BL/6 J mice individually housed in cages outfitted with running wheels were exposed to 6 simulated shiftwork light interventions. Mice experiencing high light levels during shiftwork exhibited a significant decrease in activity compared to low light levels during shiftwork and a conventional 12 L:12D condition, indicating circadian misalignment. In contrast, mice experiencing shiftwork in darkness combined with either modulated evening light pulses or circadian blind, vision-permissive light showed similar levels of rest/activity compared to a 12 L:12D condition, with phasor analysis indicating that their 24-h circadian rest/activity patterns were not misaligned. The results show that exposure to light that permits visibility but is below activation of the circadian system during shiftwork can prevent circadian misalignment.","PeriodicalId":501704,"journal":{"name":"npj Biological Timing and Sleep","volume":"2 1","pages":"27"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12226348/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144577536","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One factor that may contribute to the risk, onset, and severity of symptoms is disrupted circadian rhythms. Our study uses two strains of mice to further elucidate this relationship: healthy controls, and a mouse model of insulin resistance with short freerunning periods (~ 22.75 h) and enlarged hearts, raised in either a 24-h or 22.75-h LD cycle. Through glucose and insulin tolerance tests, routine electrocardiograms from one to four months old, and histology, we reveal worse cardiometabolic health outcomes for mice gestated and housed in a mismatched LD cycle compared to those in an LD cycle that matches their endogenous rhythm. This was characterized by heightened blood glucose levels following a glucose or insulin bolus, altered electrophysiological parameters of the cardiac waveform, and increased cardiomyocyte size. Circadian disruption due to work/social schedules or circadian-related disorders in people is often confounded with other unhealthy lifestyles. The present study demonstrates that circadian disruption on its own can lead to adverse health states.","PeriodicalId":501704,"journal":{"name":"npj Biological Timing and Sleep","volume":"2 1","pages":"18"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12074981/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144083083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We provide a case study analysis of human circadian and ultradian rhythmicity in proteins, including in the complement and coagulation cascades and apolipoproteins, with PLG, CFAH, ZA2G and ITIH2 demonstrated as rhythmic for the first time. We also show that rhythmicity increases the risk of Type II errors due to the reduction in statistical power from increased variance, and that controlling for rhythmic time-of-day variation improves statistical power and reduces the chances of Type II errors. We recommend that best practice in proteomics study design should account for temporal variation and that time of sampling be reported as part of study metadata. These simple steps can mitigate against both false and missed discoveries, as well as improving reproducibility.","PeriodicalId":501704,"journal":{"name":"npj Biological Timing and Sleep","volume":"2 1","pages":"3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11762406/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143054745","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previously we demonstrated evolutionary responses to artificial selection for increasing behavioral immunity to Gamasodes queenslandicus mites for Drosophila melanogaster. Here, we report transcriptional shifts in metabolic processes due to selection for mite resistance. We also show decreased starvation resistance and increased use of nutrient reserves in flies from mite-resistant lines. Resistant lines exhibited increased activity, reduced sleep, and elevated oxygen consumption during the night. Using a panel of D. melanogaster lines exhibiting variable sleep durations, we found a positive correlation between mite resistance and reduced sleep. Restraining the activity of artificially selected mite-resistant flies during exposure to parasites reduced their resistance advantage relative to control flies. The results suggest that ectoparasite resistance in this system involves increased activity during the scotophase and metabolic gene expression at the expense of starvation resistance.","PeriodicalId":501704,"journal":{"name":"npj Biological Timing and Sleep","volume":"2 1","pages":"15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11964914/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143797546","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The circadian clock, a system of genetic oscillators, acts as 'Master of Ceremony' during plant physiological processes. The mechanism is particularly elusive in trees despite its relevance. The primary and secondary tree growth, leaf senescence, bud set, and bud burst timing were investigated in 68 constructs transformed into Populus hybrids and compared with untransformed or transformed controls grown in natural or controlled conditions. The results were analyzed using generalized additive models with ordered-factor-smooth interaction smoothers. This meta-analysis shows that several genetic components are associated with the clock. Especially core clock-regulated genes affected tree growth and phenology in both controlled and field conditions. Our results highlight the importance of field trials and the potential of using the clock to generate trees with improved characteristics for sustainable silviculture (e.g., reprogrammed to new photoperiodic regimes and increased growth).","PeriodicalId":501704,"journal":{"name":"npj Biological Timing and Sleep","volume":"2 1","pages":"16"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11976295/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144056685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
