Abstract
Ozone (O3) is a key environmental factor for developing diabetes. Nevertheless, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate alterations of glycometabolism in mice after O3 exposure and the role of circadian rhythms in this process. C57BL/6 male mice were randomly assigned to O3 (0.5 ppm) or filtered air for four weeks (4 h/day). Then, hepatic tissues of mice were collected at 4 h intervals within 24 h after O3 exposure to test. The results showed that hepatic circadian rhythm genes oscillated abnormally, mainly at zeitgeber time (ZT)8 and ZT20 after O3 exposure. Furthermore, detection of glycometabolism (metabolites, enzymes, and genes) revealed that O3 caused change in the daily oscillations of glycometabolism. The serum glucose content decreased at ZT4 and ZT20, while hepatic glucose enhanced at ZT16 and ZT24(0). Both G6pc and Pck1, which are associated with hepatic gluconeogenesis, significantly increased at ZT20. O3 exposure disrupted glycometabolism by increasing gluconeogenesis and decreasing glycolysis in mice liver. Finally, correlation analysis showed that the association between Bmal1 and O3-induced disruption of glycometabolism was the strongest. The findings emphasized the interaction between adverse outcomes of circadian rhythms and glycometabolism following O3 exposure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) enzyme pathway is of crucial importance in the removal of toxic blood components and regulation of neuroinflammation following hemorrhagic stroke. Although a circadian pattern dependency in the incidence and severity of hemorrhagic stroke exists, it is unknown whether the activity of the HO-1 system in the context of hemorrhagic injury also exhibits circadian dependency. We hypothesized that the circadian regulation of microglial HO-1 would determine the extent of neuroinflammation and neuronal injury in a murine model of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). METHODS In vitro expression patterns of HO-1 and circadian rhythm genes were analyzed in the microglial BV-2 cell line and primary microglia (PMG) using Western blot and qPCR. PMG isolated from Hmox1fl/fl and LyzM-Cre-Hmox1fl/fl mice were used to evaluate the role of microglial HO-1. We further investigated the in vivo relevance in a murine subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) model using Hmox1fl/fl and LyzM-Cre-Hmox1fl/fl mice with myeloid cell HO-1 deficiency, inducing SAH at different zeitgeber (ZT) times and analyzing the expression of HO-1 and the circadian control gene Period-2 (Per-2), respectively. Furthermore, we measured the inflammatory cytokine Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 (MCP-1) in the cerebrospinal fluid of SAH patients in correlation with clinical outcome. RESULTS HO-1 baseline expression and response to CO with blood exposure depended on ZT. In vitro expression of circadian control genes was de-synchronized in LyzM-Cre-Hmox1fl/fl PMG and did not respond to exogenous CO exposure. We found that circadian rhythm plays a crucial role in brain damage after SAH. At ZT2, we observed less phagocytic function, more vasospasm and increased microglial activation. CO reduced mortality at ZT12 in HO-1 deficient mice and reduced the difference between ZT2 and ZT12 in the inflammatory response. Induction of MCP-1 in the CSF from SAH patients was time-dependent and correlated with the expression of circadian control genes, SAH severity, functional impairment and delirium. CONCLUSIONS Our data point towards a crucial role for the HO-1 enzyme system and circadian control in neuronal injury after a hemorrhagic stroke.

Abstract
Introduction The spaceflight environment presents unique demands on human physiology; among those demands, is sleep. Sleep loss and circadian desynchronization is a major concern for future deep- exploration plans, including long-term crewed missions to the Moon and Mars. Aims Analyze evidence of sleep disruption in crewmembers during low-Earth orbit missions, identify the use of sleep-promoting medication among crewmembers and deepen the comprehension of challenges to sleep physiology for future missions to the Moon and Mars. Results Evidence consistently indicates a loss of sleep and circadian rhythm disruption during low-Earth orbit missions. Sleep duration is shortened especially the night before a critical operation and during circadian-misaligned sleep episodes. The prevalence of sleep-promoting medication ranges between 71% and 78%; medication is more frequently taken on circadian-misaligned sleep episodes. Regarding the Moon, Apollo astronauts had variable sleep duration. For some, sleep was restful while others had poor-quality sleep. Many reported fatigue and errors due to the lack of rest. A loss of the 24-h light/dark might be expected due to the Moon's complex illumination characteristics. Regarding Mars, one main challenge will consist in synchronizing the circadian clock to a Martian day (24.65 h).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronotype describes a person's preferential activity pattern during a 24-hour period, which may not be in line with their social lifestyle. A mismatch between biological and social time is known as "social jetlag," which has negative effects on wellbeing. Cocaine influences a person's activity levels, but very little is known about possible changes in chronotype of patients with cocaine use disorder (CUD). Here, we aimed to shed light on self-reported changes in chronotype in patients with CUD and the clinical implications. METHODS A total of 90 men from the local community were recruited; about half of the sample met the criteria for CUD, while the other half were healthy without a personal history of substance use disorder. Participants completed the Munich Chronotype Questionnaire along with questionnaires about mental health, daily fatigue, and drug/alcohol use. RESULTS Half of the CUD patients fell into the category of late chronotype - a significantly larger proportion than their healthy peers. Late "night owls" tended to have started using cocaine at an earlier age than other chronotypes; a finding that was not observed with tobacco, cannabis, or alcohol. Drug use severity in CUD patients did not differ across chronotypes. CUD patients (52%) did not have a preferred time of day to use cocaine. The mismatch between social and biological time was significantly greater in CUD patients and unrelated to drug use or mental health status. CONCLUSION CUD appears to be associated with disruptions in chronotype which are, contrary to a widely held view, not reflected by using patterns or addiction severity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has previously been proven that circadian rhythm disruption is associated with the incidence and deterioration of several tumors, which potentially leads to increased tumor susceptibility and a worse prognosis for tumor-bearing patients. However, their potential role in osteosarcoma has yet to be sufficiently investigated. METHODS Transcriptomic and clinical data of 84 osteosarcoma samples and 70 normal bone tissue samples were obtained from the TARGET and GTEx databases, circadian rhythm-related genes were obtained from Genecards, and circadian rhythm-related lncRNAs (CRLs) were obtained by Pearson correlation analysis, differential expression analysis, and protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis. COX regression and LASSO regression were performed on the CRLs in order to construct a circadian rhythm-related prognostic prediction signature (CRPS). CRPS reliability was verified by Kaplan-Meier (KM), principal component analysis (PCA), nomogram, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. CRPS effects on the immune microenvironment of osteosarcoma were explored by enrichment analysis and immune infiltration analysis, and the effect of critical gene RP11-414H17.5 on osteosarcoma was experimentally verified. RESULT CRPS consisting of three CRLs was constructed and its area under the curve (AUC) values predicted that osteosarcoma prognosis reached 0.892 in the training group and 0.843 in the test group, with a p value of < 0.05 for the KM curve and stable performance across different clinical subgroups. PCA analysis found that CRPS could significantly distinguish between different risk subgroups, and exhibited excellent performance in the prediction of the immune microenvironment. The experiment verified that RP11-414H17.5 can promote metastasis and inhibit apoptosis of osteosarcoma cells. CONCLUSION The study revealed that circadian rhythm plays a crucial role in osteosarcoma progression and identified the impact of the key gene RP11-414H17.5 on osteosarcoma, which provides novel insights into osteosarcoma diagnosis and therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The gene TIMELESS, which is involved in the circadian clock and the cell cycle, has recently been linked to various human cancers. Nevertheless, the association between TIMELESS expression and the prognosis of individuals afflicted with pan-cancer remains largely unknown. OBJECTIVES The present study aims to exhaustively scrutinize the expression patterns, functional attributes, prognostic implications, and immunological contributions of TIMELESS across diverse types of human cancer. METHODS The expression of TIMELESS in normal and malignant tissues was examined, as well as their clinicopathologic and survival data. The characteristics of genetic alteration and molecular subtypes of cancers were also investigated. In addition, the relationship of TIMELESS with immune infiltration, tumor mutation burden (TMB), microsatellite instability (MSI), and drug sensitivity was illustrated. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to validate the expression of TIMELESS in clinical patients with several types of cancer. RESULTS In contrast to the matching normal controls, most tumor types were found to often overexpress TIMELESS. Abnormal expression of TIMELESS was significantly related to more advanced tumor stage and poorer prognosis of breast cancer, as well as infiltrating immune cells such as cancer-associated fibroblast infiltration in various tumors. Multiple cancer types exhibited abnormal expression of TIMELESS, which was also highly correlated with MSI and TMB. More crucially, TIMELESS showed promise in predicting the effectiveness of immunotherapy and medication sensitivity in cancer therapy. Moreover, cell cycle, DNA replication, circadian rhythm, and mismatch repair were involved in the functional mechanisms of TIMELESS on carcinogenesis. Furthermore, immunohistochemical results manifested that the TIMELESS expression was abnormal in some cancers. CONCLUSIONS This study provides new insights into the link between the circadian gene TIMELESS and the development of various malignant tumors. The findings suggest that TIMELESS could be a prospective prognostic and immunological biomarker for pan-cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The majority of the previous research has focused on the impact of average sleep parameters on longevity. In this study, we aimed to investigate the associations of day-to-day deviations in sleep parameters with biological ages among 6052 adults participating in the 2011-2014 waves of the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. METHODS Sleep parameters, including sleep duration, efficiency, midpoint, and day-to-day deviations in sleep parameters, including standard deviation of sleep duration (sleep variability), standard deviation of sleep midpoint (sleep irregularity), catch-up sleep, and social jetlag, were obtained from 4 to 7 days of 24-h accelerometer recording. We used physiological data to compute measurements of biological aging according to 3 published algorithms: PhenoAge, Klemera-Doubal method Biological Age, and homeostatic dysregulation. RESULTS After adjustment of multiple covariates, we observed that all parameters of day-to-day deviations in sleep were significantly associated with biological aging with larger sleep variability, larger sleep irregularity, more catch-up sleep, and more social jetlag linked with more advanced biological aging. The significant associations of sleep irregularity, catch-up sleep, and social jetlag with biological aging indices remained even after adjustment for sleep duration, efficiency, and midpoint. CONCLUSION In this study, we found that day-to-day deviations in sleep parameters are independently associated with biological aging in US general population. Since day-to-day deviation in sleep is a modifiable behavioral factor, our finding suggests that intervention aiming at increasing regularity in sleep patterns may be a novel approach for extending a healthy life span.

Abstract
Hibernation is a highly seasonal physiological adaptation that allows brown bears (Ursus arctos) to survive extended periods of low food availability. Similarly, daily or circadian rhythms conserve energy by coordinating body processes to optimally match the environmental light/dark cycle. Brown bears express circadian rhythms in vivo and their cells do in vitro throughout the year, suggesting that these rhythms may play important roles during periods of negative energy balance. Here, we use time-series analysis of RNA sequencing data and timed measurements of ATP production in adipose-derived fibroblasts from active and hibernation seasons under two temperature conditions to confirm that rhythmicity was present. Culture temperature matching that of hibernation body temperature (34 °C) resulted in a delay of daily peak ATP production in comparison with active season body temperatures (37 °C). The timing of peaks of mitochondrial gene transcription was altered as were the amplitudes of transcripts coding for enzymes of the electron transport chain. Additionally, we observed changes in mean expression and timing of key metabolic genes such as SIRT1 and AMPK which are linked to the circadian system and energy balance. The amplitudes of several circadian gene transcripts were also reduced. These results reveal a link between energy conservation and a functioning circadian system in hibernation.

Abstract
The global phenomenon of population aging presents a significant challenge, affecting both the increasing number of older individuals and their duration of living with disability. Tailored care services are crucial for improving the quality of life of older adults, particularly those with disabilities residing in nursing homes. However, ensuring personalized care and mitigating the risks associated with institutionalization are essential in optimizing care quality. One particular challenge in nursing homes is maintaining residents' personal routines and addressing sleep disturbances linked to neurodegenerative disorders. Non-pharmacological interventions are increasingly recognized as preventive and management strategies for behavioral and psychiatric symptoms in nursing home residents. Sleep disruptions, such as reduced duration and increased nocturnal awakenings, are prevalent among nursing home residents. Excessive nocturnal lighting and frequent caregiver interventions contribute to these disturbances. This study aimed to investigate the impact of implementing smart humancentric lighting on the sleep efficiency of nursing home residents. Data from pressure sensors embedded in mattresses were collected to assess sleep efficiency. The findings suggest that smart humancentric lighting can significantly reduce sleep disturbances and improve sleep quality in nursing home residents. Future research should delve into specific symptoms, care burden, and psychotropic agent utilization to validate the effectiveness of this intervention.

Abstract
Mammalians' circadian pacemaker resides in the paired suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN). SCN control biological rhythms such as the sleep-wake rhythm and homeostatic functions of steroid hormones and their receptors. Alterations in these biological rhythms are implicated in the outcomes of pathogenic conditions such as depression, diabetes, and cancer. Chronotherapy is about optimizing treatment to combat risks and intensity of the disease symptoms that vary depending on the time of day. Thus, conditions/diseases such as allergic rhinitis, arthritis, asthma, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, stroke, and peptic ulcer disease, prone to manifest severe symptoms depending on the time of day, would be benefited from chronotherapy. Monitoring rhythm, overcoming rhythm disruption, and manipulating the rhythms from the viewpoints of underlying molecular clocks are essential to enhanced chronopharmacotherapy. New drugs focused on molecular clocks are being developed to improve therapeutics. In this review, we provide a critical summary of literature reports concerning (a) the rationale/mechanisms for time-dependent dosing differences in therapeutic outcomes and safety of antitumor drugs, (b) the molecular pathways underlying biological rhythms, and (c) the possibility of pharmacotherapy based on the intra- and inter-individual variabilities from the viewpoints of the clock genes.

Abstract
Orexin and its receptors are closely related to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although the expression of orexin system genes under physiological condition has circadian rhythm, the diurnal characteristics of orexin system genes, and its potential role in the pathogenesis in AD are unknown. In the present study, we hope to elucidate the diurnal characteristics of orexin system genes at the early stage of AD, and to investigate its potential role in the development of AD neuropathology. We firstly detected the mRNA levels of orexin system genes, AD risk genes and core clock genes (CCGs) in hypothalamus and hippocampus in 6-month-old male 3xTg-AD mice and C57BL/6J (wild type, WT) control mice, then analyzed diurnal expression profiles of all genes using JTK_CYCLE algorithm, and did the correlation analysis between expression of orexin system genes and AD risk genes or CCGs. In addition, the expression of β-amyloid protein (Aβ) and phosphorylated tau (p-tau) protein were measured. The results showed that the diurnal mRNA expression profiles of PPO, OX1R, OX2R, Bace2, Bmal1, Per1, Per2 and Cry1 in the hypothalamus, and gene expression of OX1R, OX2R, Bace1, Bmal1, Per1 and Cry2 in the hippocampus in 3xTg-AD mice were different from that in WT mice. Furthermore, there is positive correlation between orexin system genes and AD risk genes or CCGs in the brain in 3xTg-AD mice. In addition, the expression of Aβ and p-tau in hippocampus in 3xTg-AD mice were significantly increased, and the expression of p-tau is higher in night than in day. These results indicate that the abnormal expression profiles of orexin system genes and its interaction with AD risk genes or CCGs might exert important role in the pathogenesis of AD, which will increase the expression of Aβ and p-tau, and accelerate the development of AD.

Abstract
Cryptochromes (CRYs), transcriptional repressors of the circadian clock in mammals, inhibit cAMP production when glucagon activates G-protein coupled receptors. Therefore, molecules that modulate CRYs have the potential to regulate gluconeogenesis. In this study, we discovered a new molecule called TW68 that interacts with the primary pockets of mammalian CRY1/2, leading to reduced ubiquitination levels and increased stability. In cell-based circadian rhythm assays using U2OS Bmal1-dLuc cells, TW68 extended the period length of the circadian rhythm. Additionally, TW68 decreased the transcriptional levels of two genes, Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1 (PCK1) and Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6PC), which play crucial roles in glucose biosynthesis during glucagon-induced gluconeogenesis in HepG2 cells. Oral administration of TW68 in mice showed good tolerance, a good pharmacokinetic profile, and remarkable bioavailability. Finally, when administered to fasting diabetic animals from ob/ob and HFD-fed obese mice, TW68 reduced blood glucose levels by enhancing CRY stabilization and subsequently decreasing the transcriptional levels of Pck1 and G6pc. These findings collectively demonstrate the antidiabetic efficacy of TW68 in vivo, suggesting its therapeutic potential for controlling fasting glucose levels in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Components critical to cerebral perfusion have been noted to oscillate over a 24-h cycle. We previously reported that ischemic core volume has a diurnal relationship with stroke onset time when examined as dichotomized epochs (i.e. Day, Evening, Night) in a cohort of over 1,500 large vessel occlusion (LVO) patients. In this follow-up analysis, our goal was to explore if there is a sinusoidal relationship between ischemic core, collateral status (as measured by HIR), and stroke onset time. METHODS We retrospectively examined collection of LVO patients with baseline perfusion imaging performed within 24 h of stroke onset from four international comprehensive stroke centers. Both ischemic core volume and HIR, were utilized as the primary radiographic parameters. To evaluate for differences in these parameters over a continuous 24-h cycle, we conducted a sinusoidal regression analysis after linearly regressing out the confounders age and time to imaging. RESULTS A total of 1506 LVO cases were included, with a median ischemic core volume of 13.0 cc (IQR: 0.0-42.0) and median HIR of 0.4 (IQR: 0.2-0.6). Ischemic core volume varied by stroke onset time in the unadjusted (p = 0.001) and adjusted (p = 0.003) sinusoidal regression analysis with a peak in core volume around 7:45PM. HIR similarly varied by stroke onset time in the unadjusted (p = 0.004) and adjusted (p = 0.002) models with a peak in HIR values at around 8:18PM. CONCLUSION The results suggest that critical factors to the development of the ischemic core vary by stroke onset time and peak around 8PM. When placed in the context of prior studies, strongly suggest a diurnal component to the development of the ischemic core.

Abstract
PURPOSE US adults who report experiencing insufficient sleep are more likely to suffer from metabolic disorders such as hyperlipidemia, diabetes, and obesity than those with sufficient sleep. Less is understood about the underlying molecular mechanisms connecting these phenomena. A systematic, qualitative review of metabolomics studies exploring metabolic changes in response to sleep insufficiency, sleep deprivation, or circadian disruption was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. METHODS An electronic literature review in the PubMed database was performed considering publications through May 2021 and screening and eligibility criteria were applied to articles retrieved. The following keywords were used: "metabolomics" and "sleep disorders" or "sleep deprivation" or "sleep disturbance" or "circadian rhythm." After screening and addition of studies included from reference lists of retrieved studies, 16 records were identified for review. RESULTS Consistent changes in metabolites were observed across studies between individuals experiencing sleep deprivation compared to non-sleep deprived controls. Significant increases in phosphatidylcholines, acylcarnitines, sphingolipids, and other lipids were consistent across studies. Increased levels of amino acids such as tryptophan and phenylalanine were also noted. However, studies were limited to small samples of young, healthy, mostly male participants conducted in short inpatient sessions, limiting generalizability. CONCLUSION Changes in lipid and amino acid metabolites accompanying sleep deprivation and/or circadian rhythms may indicate cellular membrane and protein breakdown underlying the connection between sleep disturbance, hyperlipidemia, and other metabolic disorders. Larger epidemiological studies examining changes in the human metabolome in response to chronic insufficient sleep would help elucidate this relationship.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Today, modern lifestyles and disrupted sleep patterns cause circadian clock rhythm impairments that are associated with altered leptin levels, which subsequently affect a wide range of physiological processes and have significant health burdens on societies. Nevertheless, there has been no systematic review of circadian clock genes and proteins, leptin, and related signaling pathways. METHODS Accordingly, we systematically reviewed circadian clock proteins, leptin, and molecular mechanisms between them by searching Pubmed, Scopus, ProQuest, Web of Sciences, and Google Scholar until September 2022. After considering the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 20 animal studies were selected. The risk of bias was assessed in each study. RESULTS The results clarified the reciprocal interconnected relationship between circadian clock genes and leptin. Circadian clock genes regulate leptin expression and signaling via different mechanisms, such as CLOCK-BMAL1 heterodimers, which increase the expression of PPARs. PPARs induce the expression of C/EBPα, a key factor in upregulating leptin expression. CLOCK-BMAL1 also induces the expression of Per1 and Rev-erb genes. PER1 activates mTORC1 and mTORC1 enhances the expression of C/EBPα. In addition, REV-ERBs activate the leptin signaling pathway. Also, leptin controls the expression of circadian clock genes by triggering the AMPK and ERK/MAPK signaling pathways, which regulate the activity of PPARs. Moreover, the roles of these molecular mechanisms are elucidated in different physiological processes and organs. CONCLUSIONS Crosstalk between circadian clock genes and leptin and their affecting elements should be considered in the selection of new therapeutic targets for related disorders, especially obesity and metabolic impairments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The biological clock allows an organism to anticipate periodic environmental changes and adjust its physiology and behavior accordingly. OBJECTIVE This retrospective cross-sectional study examined circadian gene polymorphisms and clinical characteristics associated with insulin resistance (IR). METHODS We analyzed data from 1,404 Korean adults aged 30 to 55 with no history of cancer and cardio-cerebrovascular disease. The population was classified according to sex and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) values. Demographics, anthropometric and clinical characteristics, and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were analyzed with respect to sex, age, and HOMA-IR values. We used association rule mining to identify sets of SNPs from circadian and metabolic sensing genes that may be associated with IR. RESULTS Among the subjects, 15.0% of 960 women and 24.3% of 444 men had HOMA-IR values above 2. Most of the parameters differed significantly between men and women, as well as between the groups with high and low insulin sensitivity. Body fat mass of the trunk, which was significantly higher in insulin-resistant groups, had a higher correlation with high sensitivity C-reactive protein and hemoglobin levels in women, and alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase levels in men. Homozygous minor allele genotype sets of SNPs rs17031578 and rs228669 in the PER3 gene could be more frequently found among women with HOMA-IR values above 2 (p = .014). CONCLUSION Oxidative stress enhanced by adiposity and iron overload, which may also be linked to NRF2 and PER3-related pathways, is related to IR in adulthood. However, due to the small population size in this study, more research is needed.

Abstract
The circadian clock in tendon regulates the daily rhythmic synthesis of collagen-I and the appearance and disappearance of small-diameter collagen fibrils in the extracellular matrix. How the fibrils are assembled and removed is not fully understood. Here, we first showed that the collagenase, membrane type I-matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP, encoded by Mmp14), is regulated by the circadian clock in postnatal mouse tendon. Next, we generated tamoxifen-induced Col1a2-Cre-ERT2::Mmp14 KO mice (Mmp14 conditional knockout (CKO)). The CKO mice developed hind limb dorsiflexion and thickened tendons, which accumulated narrow-diameter collagen fibrils causing ultrastructural disorganization. Mass spectrometry of control tendons identified 1195 proteins of which 212 showed time-dependent abundance. In Mmp14 CKO mice 19 proteins had reversed temporal abundance and 176 proteins lost time dependency. Among these, the collagen crosslinking enzymes lysyl oxidase-like 1 (LOXL1) and lysyl hydroxylase 1 (LH1; encoded by Plod2) were elevated and had lost time-dependent regulation. High-pressure chromatography confirmed elevated levels of hydroxylysine aldehyde (pyridinoline) crosslinking of collagen in CKO tendons. As a result, collagen-I was refractory to extraction. We also showed that CRISPR-Cas9 deletion of Mmp14 from cultured fibroblasts resulted in loss of circadian clock rhythmicity of period 2 (PER2), and recombinant MT1-MMP was highly effective at cleaving soluble collagen-I but less effective at cleaving collagen pre-assembled into fibrils. In conclusion, our study shows that circadian clock-regulated Mmp14 controls the rhythmic synthesis of small diameter collagen fibrils, regulates collagen crosslinking, and its absence disrupts the circadian clock and matrisome in tendon fibroblasts.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Human energy expenditure and substrate oxidation are under circadian control and food intake is a time cue for the human biological clock, leading to 24h feeding-fasting cycles in energy and substrate metabolism. In recent years, (intermittent) fasting protocols have also become popular to improve metabolic health. Here, we aimed to investigate the impact of food intake on the 24h patterns of energy metabolism as well as to provide data on the timeline of changes in energy metabolism that occur upon an extended period of fasting. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS In a randomized, cross-over design, twelve healthy males underwent a 60h fast which was compared to a 60h fed condition. In the fed condition meals were provided at energy balance throughout the study. Conditions were separated by a two week period of habitual diet. Volunteers resided in a respiration chamber for the entire 60h to measure energy expenditure and substrate oxidation hour by hour. Volunteers performed a standardized activity protocol while in the chamber. Blood samples were drawn after 12, 36 and 60h. RESULTS Immediately following the breakfast meal (in the fed condition), fat oxidation became higher in the fasted condition compared to the fed condition and remained elevated throughout the study period. The initial rapid increase in fat oxidation corresponded with a decline in the hepatokine activin A (r = -0.86, p = 0.001). The contribution of fat oxidation to total energy expenditure gradually increased with extended abstinence from food, peaking after 51h of fasting at 160 mg/min. Carbohydrate oxidation stabilized at a low level during the second day of fasting and averaged around 60 mg/min with only modest elevations in response to physical activity. Although 24h energy expenditure was significantly lower with prolonged fasting (11.0 ± 0.4 vs 9.8 ± 0.2 and 10.9 ± 0.3 vs 10.3 ± 0.3 MJ in fed vs fasting, day 2 and 3 respectively, p < 0.01), the 24h fluctuations in energy expenditure were comparable between the fasted and fed condition. The fluctuations in substrate oxidation were, however, significantly (p < 0.001 for both carbohydrate and fat oxidation) altered in the fasted state, favouring fat oxidation. CONCLUSIONS Energy expenditure displays a day-night rhythm, which is independent of food intake. In contrast, the day-night rhythm of both carbohydrate and fat oxidation is mainly driven by food intake. Upon extended fasting, the absolute rate of fat oxidation rapidly increases and keeps increasing during a 60h fast, whereas carbohydrate oxidation becomes progressively diminished.

Abstract
Retinal oxygen saturation is influenced by systemic and local vasculature, intraocular pressure (IOP), and individual cellular function. In numerous retinal pathologies, early changes take place at the level of the microvasculature, thereby affecting retinal oxygenation. The purpose of this study was to investigate diurnal variations in retinal oximetry measures and evaluate the relationship with other ocular and systemic physiological processes. Healthy adults (n = 18, mean age 27 ± 5.5 years) participated. Ocular and systemic measures were collected every four hours over 24 h and included retinal oximetry, IOP, optical coherence tomography (OCT), OCT-angiography (OCTA), biometry, blood pressure, and partial pressure of oxygen. Amplitude and acrophase for retinal oxygen saturation, axial length, retinal and choroidal thickness, OCTA parameters, and mean arterial and ocular perfusion pressure (MAP, MOPP) were determined were determined using cosine fits, and multiple regression analysis was performed to compare metrics. Retinal oxygenation saturation demonstrated a significant diurnal variation with an amplitude of 5.84 ± 3.86% and acrophase of 2.35 h. Other parameters that demonstrated significant diurnal variation included IOP, MOPP, axial length, choroidal thickness, superficial vessel density, heart rate, systolic blood pressure, and MAP. Diurnal variations in retinal oxygen saturation were in-phase with choroidal thickness, IOP, and density of the superficial vascular plexus and out-of-phase with axial length and MOPP. In conclusion, retinal oxygenation saturation undergoes diurnal variations over 24 h. These findings contribute to a better understanding of intrinsic and extrinsic factors influencing oxygenation of the area surrounding the fovea.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study investigated (non)linear associations between different eveningness characteristics (bedtime, wake time, morning affect, and peak performance time) and insomnia symptoms (difficulties initiating sleep, difficulties maintaining sleep, and nonrestorative sleep) in a large general population sample. METHODS The data came from digital surveys about insomnia (Minimal Insomnia Scale) and circadian preferences (Children's Chronotype Questionnaire/Composite Scale of Morningness) completed by the Dutch general population (37,389 participants aged 4-91years, 42.4% men) in the Lifelines cohort substudy Comorbid Conditions of ADHD. RESULTS Using generalized additive modeling, we found that different characteristics of eveningness related to insomnia either exponentially (later wake time/peak performance time, worse morning affect) or quadratically (early and late bedtime/midpoint of sleep). While difficulties initiating sleep and nonrestorative sleep were strongly associated with all eveningness characteristics, difficulties maintaining sleep related only to earlier bedtimes. These relationships were similar for men and women but varied partly in shapes and strengths across the lifespan. Additional analyses showed that bedtime and wake time were associated with insomnia symptoms only when their combination would result in an unusually long or short preferred time in bed. CONCLUSION The association between eveningness and insomnia symptoms highly depends on whether eveningness is reflected by daytime performance or sleep-wake time. The pattern and strength of these associations also vary depending on age and insomnia symptom, but less so on sex. Future sleep-related research and policies relying on circadian preferences should account for the nonlinearity, dimension/symptom-related specificity and age-related differences in the association between eveningness and insomnia symptoms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Agomelatine in improving symptoms in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD), providing more scientific evidence for the treatment of depression, and offering more effective therapeutic options for patients. METHODS A total of 180 MDD patients in acute phase from 10 psychiatric hospitals of Grade three in Zhejiang Province were enrolled in this 12-week study with the competitive and consecutive pattern, and they were randomized into two different groups treated with flexible-dosage antidepressants of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) or agomelatine, respectively. The subjects were evaluated with psychological scales of HAMD-17, HAMA, SHAPS for anhedonia, MFI-20 for fatigue, PQSI for sleep quality and MEQ for disturbances in chronobiologic rhythms at baseline, 2, 4, 8 and 12-weekend points, and TESS was used for side-effect. The results were analyzed with repeated measurement analysis of variance. RESULTS The two groups each had 90 participants, and there were no significant differences at baseline. The scores of various assessment scales showed statistically significant time main effects during the visits (P < 0.01). The Agomelatine group demonstrated faster efficacy within 2 weeks, with better improvement in SHAPS, MEQ, and PSQI compared to the SSRIs group. However, the remission rate at 12 weeks was lower in the Agomelatine group than in the SSRIs group (63.3% and 72.2%), but the difference between the groups was not statistically significant. The Agomelatine group had fewer adverse reactions (14.4% and 16.7%), but there was a slightly higher incidence of liver function impairment (6.7% and 4.4%), with no statistically significant difference between the groups. CONCLUSION Agomelatine, as a novel antidepressant, shows certain advantages in improving depression and anxiety symptoms and is comparable to SSRIs in terms of safety. However, its long-term efficacy and safety on MDD or other depressive subtypes still require further observation and research.

Abstract
PURPOSE Serum cortisol and inflammatory markers may play a role in depression and anxiety, but little is known about whether various features of serum cortisol and inflammatory markers have different associations with depression and anxiety. This study examines the associations of serum cortisol and inflammatory marker features with depression and anxiety in young women with gynecologic cancer. METHODS Sixty-four young women with gynecologic cancer, aged 15-39 years, were recruited in a tertiary general hospital and a tertiary hospital specializing in oncology in China from May to December 2021. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale was used to evaluate depression and anxiety. Blood samples were taken at 8 am, 4 pm, and 10 pm on the same day to examine the various features (average, variability, and diurnal patterns) of serum cortisol and inflammatory markers, namely C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α). RESULTS Young women with gynecologic cancer who reported depression/anxiety had significantly higher average levels of serum cortisol, IL-6 and TNF-α than those who did not. The dysregulations in the diurnal patterns of serum cortisol and IL-6 were associated with depression and anxiety. Serum cortisol levels were significantly higher in the depression/anxiety group at 10 pm. Depression and anxiety were associated with elevated levels of IL-6 and TNF-α at each time point. CONCLUSION This study revealed various associations of serum cortisol and inflammatory marker features with depression and anxiety in young women with gynecologic cancer. Further research is needed to understand the role of serum cortisol and inflammatory marker features in the progression of depression and anxiety.

Abstract
Accelerometers, devices that measure body movements, have become valuable tools for studying the fragmentation of rest-activity patterns, a core circadian rhythm dimension, using metrics such as inter-daily stability (IS), intradaily variability (IV), transition probability (TP), and self-similarity parameter (named α ). However, their use remains mainly empirical. Therefore, we investigated the mathematical properties and interpretability of rest-activity fragmentation metrics by providing mathematical proofs for the ranges of IS and IV, proposing maximum likelihood and Bayesian estimators for TP, introducing the activity balance index metric, an adaptation of α , and describing distributions of these metrics in real-life setting. Analysis of accelerometer data from 2,859 individuals (age=60-83 years, 21.1% women) from the Whitehall II cohort (UK) shows modest correlations between the metrics, except for ABI and α . Sociodemographic (age, sex, education, employment status) and clinical (body mass index (BMI), and number of morbidities) factors were associated with these metrics, with differences observed according to metrics. For example, a difference of 5 units in BMI was associated with all metrics (differences ranging between -0.261 (95% CI -0.302, -0.220) to 0.228 (0.18, 0.268) for standardised TP rest to activity during the awake period and TP activity to rest during the awake period, respectively). These results reinforce the value of these rest-activity fragmentation metrics in epidemiological and clinical studies to examine their role for health. This paper expands on a set of methods that have previously demonstrated empirical value, improves the theoretical foundation for these methods, and evaluates their empirical worth in a large dataset.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep deprivation (SD) can lead to the development of various pathological disorders. The extracellular matrix (ECM) compositions and circadian rhythm genes are two pivotal variables of SD. However, their relationships remain undefined during SD. METHODS A mouse SD model was established using a modified multiplatform water environment method. The expression of nerve growth factor (NGF) in mouse hippocampus was detected by an immunofluorescence (IF) method. Protein expression was assessed by western blot, and mRNA analysis was performed by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). The differentially expressed genes after SD, the genes associated with stromal score, and gene expression correlation were analyzed by bioinformatic analysis. RESULTS The mouse model of SD was successfully established, as evidenced by the changed morphology, increased Bax and NGF levels, and downregulated Bcl-2 in mouse hippocampus after SD. The differentially expressed genes after SD were closely associated with the ECM compositions. The ECM composition metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) was under-expressed in mouse hippocampus after SD. The hippocampal MMP9 expression was correlated with the expression levels of circadian genes PER2, PER3, TIMELESS, FBXL3, and NFIL3. PER2 and TIMELESS were upregulated in mouse hippocampus after SD. CONCLUSION The current findings suggest a correlation between ECM composition MMP9 and circadian rhythm-related genes PER2 and TIMELESS in mouse hippocampus after SD, providing a novel understanding of the disorders after SD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accumulating evidence has suggested an oncogenic effect of diurnal disruption on cancer progression. To test whether targeting circadian rhythm by dietary strategy suppressed lung cancer progression, we adopted 6-h time-restricted feeding (TRF) paradigm to elucidate whether and how TRF impacts lung cancer progression. METHODS This study used multiple lung cancer cell lines, two xenograft mouse models, and a chemical-treated mouse lung cancer model. Stable TIM-knockdown and TIM-overexpressing A549 cells were constructed. Cancer behaviors in vitro were determined by colony formation, EdU proliferation, wound healing, transwell migration, flow cytometer, and CCK8 assays. Immunofluorescence, pathology examinations, and targeted metabolomics were also used in tumor cells and tissues. mCherry-GFP-LC3 plasmid was used to detect autophagic flux. RESULTS We found for the first time that compared to normal ad libitum feeding, 6-h TRF inhibited lung cancer progression and reprogrammed the rhythms of metabolites or genes involved in glycolysis and the circadian rhythm in tumors. After TRF intervention, only timeless (TIM) gene among five lung cancer-associated clock genes was found to consistently align rhythm of tumor cells to that of tumor tissues. Further, we demonstrated that the anti-tumor effect upon TRF was partially mediated by the rhythmic downregulation of the TIM and the subsequent activation of autophagy. Combining TRF with TIM inhibition further enhanced the anti-tumor effect, comparable to treatment efficacy of chemotherapy in xenograft model. CONCLUSIONS Six-hour TRF inhibits lung cancer progression and reshapes circadian metabolism, which is partially mediated by the rhythmic downregulation of the TIM and the subsequent upregulation of autophagy.

Abstract
Sleep disorders are catching attention worldwide as they can induce dyshomeostasis and health issues in all animals, including humans. Circadian rhythms are biological 24-hour cycles that influence physiology and behavior in all living organisms. Sleep is a crucial resting state for survival and is under the control of circadian rhythms. Studies have shown the influence of sleep on various pathological conditions, including metabolic diseases; however, the biological mechanisms involving the circadian clock, sleep, and metabolism regulation are not well understood. In previous work, we standardized a sleep disturbance protocol and, observed that short-time sleep deprivation and sleep-pattern alteration induce homeostatic sleep regulation, locomotor deficits, and increase oxidative stress. Now, we investigated the relationship between these alterations with the circadian clock and energetic metabolism. In this study, we evaluated the expression of the circadian clock and drosophila insulin-like peptides (DILPs) genes and metabolic markers glucose, triglycerides, and glycogen in fruit flies subjected to short-term sleep disruption protocols. The sleep disturbance altered the expression of clock genes and DILPs genes expression, and modulated glucose, triglycerides, and glycogen levels. Moreover, we demonstrated changes in mTor/dFoxo genes, AKT phosphorylation, and dopamine levels in nocturnal light-exposed flies. Thus, our results suggest a connection between clock genes and metabolism disruption as a consequence of sleep disruption, demonstrating the importance of sleep quality in health maintenance.

Abstract
AIMS Bladder function is regulated by clock genes and dysregulation of circadian bladder function can cause nocturia. The blood concentration of palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), a fatty acid metabolite, changes with circadian rhythm. Clock gene abnormalities demonstrate the highest PEA levels during the sleep phase. PEA is a GPR55 agonist that influences urination; therefore, increased PEA during the sleep phase may cause nocturia. Herein, we investigated the function of GPR55 to evaluate the relationship between GPR55 and nocturia that evoked higher PEA during the sleep phase in patients with circadian rhythm disorders. MAIN METHODS Male C57BL/6 mice were used. GPR55 localization was evaluated by immunofluorescence staining, qRT-PCR, and western blotting. Variations in PEA-induced intracellular Ca2+ concentrations were measured in primary cultured mouse urothelial cells (UCs) using Ca2+ imaging. PEA-induced NGF and PGI2 release in UCs was measured by ELISA. The micturition reflex pathway after PEA administration was evaluated using immunofluorescence staining. KEY FINDINGS GPR55 was predominant in the UC layer. PEA induced release of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum into the UC cytoplasm. ELISA and immunofluorescence staining revealed that NGF and PGI2 were released from bladder UCs, stimulated the pontine micturition center in mice, and induced nocturia. SIGNIFICANCE The loss of regular circadian metabolizing rhythm in fatty acids causes higher blood PEA levels during the sleep phase. Binding of PEA to GPR55 in UC may activate the downstream processes of the micturition reflex, leading to nocturia. These findings suggest a new mechanism for nocturia and its potential as a therapeutic target.

Abstract
BACKGROUND People with epilepsy often experience daytime vigilance problems and fatigue. This may be related to disturbed sleep due to nocturnal seizures. AIM To compare subjective and objective markers of vigilance and circadian function in adults with epilepsy with nocturnal seizures to those with daytime seizures and healthy controls and to identify determinants of impaired daytime vigilance in epilepsy in an explorative study. METHODS We included 30 adults with epilepsy (15 with daytime seizures and 15 with nocturnal seizures), and 15 healthy controls. All participants filled out the Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS), fatigue severity scale (FSS), Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) and the Munich chronotype questionnaire (MCTQ). Each participant performed two trials of the sustained attention to response task (SART) as a measure of vigilance, and had a post-illumination pupil response (PIPR) assessment as a marker for the circadian function. RESULTS Both epilepsy groups reported more fatigue on the FSS than healthy controls (p < .001) and had higher SART error scores (p = .026). The poorer FSS and SART scores were most prominent among those with nocturnal seizures. The ESS, PSQI, MCTQ and the primary PIPR outcome did not differ between groups. Having nocturnal seizures (p = .010) and using more antiseizure medications (p = .004) were related to increased SART error scores. CONCLUSIONS Nocturnal epilepsy is associated with poorer vigilance, indicating lower quality of wake time. We could not relate this to circadian dysfunction. Further studies should focus on vigilance problems in people with nocturnal epilepsy and explore interventions to improve the quality of wake time.

Abstract
PURPOSE To study the impact of undergoing an embryo transfer during the week of daylight savings time transition on live birth rates. METHODS We performed a retrospective observational cohort study of patients undergoing embryo transfer at an academic infertility practice during the week of spring or fall daylight savings time transition (cases), or the 2 weeks preceding and following the daylight savings transition (controls) between 2015 and 2021. The primary exposure was completion of an embryo transfer during the week of daylight savings time transition. The primary outcome was a comparison of live birth rate per embryo transfer among individuals undergoing an embryo transfer during the week of daylight savings time (DST) transition and those who did not. RESULTS A total of 309 embryo transfers occurred during the week of daylight savings transition and 1242 embryo transfers occurred in the control group outside of the daylight savings transition week. The live birth rate after embryo transfer during DST transition weeks was 39.2% (121/309) compared to 40.8% (507/1242) (p = 0.59). When restricting the analysis to individuals (age > 37 years), the live birth rate after embryo transfer during DST transition week was 23.5% (24/102) compared to 34.8% (149/429) (p = 0.03). This difference persisted in the mixed-effects regression model demonstrating that after adjusting for relevant covariates, embryo transfer during DST transition weeks resulted in a 45% decrease in the odds of achieving a live birth. CONCLUSION Daylight savings time transition may be associated with less favorable outcomes after embryo transfer among an older infertile patient population. Future work is needed to prospectively examine the influence of circadian rhythm disruption on reproductive outcomes.

Abstract
The homeostasis of the gut microbiota and circadian rhythm is critical to host health, and both are inextricably intertwined with lung cancer. Although time-restricted feeding (TRF) can maintain circadian synchronization and improve metabolic disorders, the effects of TRF on the fecal microbiome, metabolome and their diurnal oscillations in lung cancer have not been discussed. We performed 16S rRNA sequencing and untargeted metabonomic sequencing of the feces prepared from models of tumor-bearing BALB/c nude mice and urethane-induced lung cancer. We demonstrated for the first time that TRF significantly delayed the growth of lung tumors. Moreover, TRF altered the abundances of the fecal microbiome, metabolome and circadian clocks, as well as their rhythmicity, in lung cancer models of tumor-bearing BALB/c nude mice and/or urethane-induced lung cancer C57BL/6J mice. The results of fecal microbiota transplantation proved that the antitumor effects of TRF occur by regulating the fecal microbiota. Notably, Lactobacillus and Bacillus were increased upon TRF and were correlated with most differential metabolites. Pathway enrichment analysis of metabolites revealed that TRF mainly affected immune and inflammatory processes, which might further explain how TRF exerted its anticancer benefits. These findings underscore the possibility that the fecal microbiome/metabolome regulates lung cancer following a TRF paradigm.

Abstract
Background & Aims Circadian rhythms play significant roles in immune responses, and many inflammatory processes in liver diseases are associated with malfunctioning molecular clocks. However, the significance of the circadian clock in autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), which is characterised by immune-mediated hepatocyte destruction and extensive inflammatory cytokine production, remains unclear. Methods We tested the difference in susceptibility to the immune-mediated liver injury induced by concanavalin A (ConA) at various time points throughout a day in mice and analysed the effects of global, hepatocyte, or myeloid cell deletion of the core clock gene, Bmal1 (basic helix-loop-helix ARNT-like 1), on liver injury and inflammatory responses. Multiple molecular biology techniques and mice with macrophage-specific knockdown of Junb, a Bmal1 target gene, were used to investigate the involvement of Junb in the circadian control of ConA-induced hepatitis. Results The susceptibility to ConA-induced liver injury is highly dependent on the timing of ConA injection. The treatment at Zeitgeber time 0 (lights on) triggers the highest mortality as well as the severest liver injury and inflammatory responses. Further study revealed that this timing effect was driven by macrophage, but not hepatocyte, Bmal1. Mechanistically, Bmal1 controls the diurnal variation of ConA-induced hepatitis by directly regulating the circadian transcription of Junb and promoting M1 macrophage activation. Inhibition of Junb in macrophages blunts the administration time-dependent effect of ConA and attenuates liver injury. Moreover, we demonstrated that Junb promotes macrophage inflammation by regulating AKT and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signalling pathways. Conclusions Our findings uncover a critical role of the Bmal1-Junb-AKT/ERK axis in the circadian control of ConA-induced hepatitis and provide new insights into the prevention and treatment of AIH. Impact and Implications This study unveils a critical role of the Bmal1-Junb-AKT/ERK axis in the circadian control of ConA-induced liver injury, providing new insights into the prevention and treatment of immune-mediated hepatitis, including autoimmune hepatitis (AIH). The findings have scientific implications as they enhance our understanding of the circadian regulation of immune responses in liver diseases. Furthermore, clinically, this research offers opportunities for optimising treatment strategies in immune-mediated hepatitis by considering the timing of therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
The variability of PRP is a major contributor to the lack of evidence regarding the therapeutic effect of PRP in musculoskeletal diseases. In a large study, we are currently investigating factors that may influence PRP variability. Interim results showed that concentrations of IL‑6, but not IGF‑1 or cellular constituents, were significantly decreased in PRP samples from vegans compared with omnivores and tended to be decreased compared to samples from vegetarians. This suggests that diet may have a significant influence on therapeutically active PRP constituents. However, the constituents studied here did not appear to be significantly affected by the timing of the sampling. Identification of significant variables affecting PRP composition will be critical to provide sufficient medical evidence for the therapeutic effects of PRP in orthopedic conditions.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common age-related joint disease, affecting articular cartilage and other joint structures, causing severe pain and disability. Due to a limited understanding of the underlying disease pathogenesis, there are currently no disease-modifying drugs for OA. Circadian rhythms are generated by cell-intrinsic timekeeping mechanisms which are known to dampen during ageing, increasing disease risks. In this review, we focus on one emerging area of chondrocyte biology, the circadian clocks. We first provide a historical perspective of circadian clock discoveries and the molecular underpinnings. We will then focus on the expression and functions of circadian clocks in articular cartilage, including their rhythmic target genes and pathways, links to ageing, tissue degeneration, and OA, as well as tissue niche-specific entrainment pathways. Further research into cartilage clocks and ageing may have broader implications in the understanding of OA pathogenesis, the standardization of biomarker detection, and the development of novel therapeutic routes for the prevention and management of OA and other musculoskeletal diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE NSAIDs inhibit cyclooxygenase, but their role in aging and other diseases is not well understood. Our group previously showed the potential benefit of NSAIDs in decreasing the risk of delirium and mortality. Concurrently, epigenetics signals have also been associated with delirium. Therefore, we sought to find differentially methylated genes and biological pathways related to exposure with NSAIDs by comparing the genome-wide DNA methylation profiles of patients with and without a history of NSAIDs use. METHODS Whole blood samples were collected from 171 patients at the University of Iowa Hospital and Clinics from November 2017 to March 2020. History of NSAIDs use was assessed through a word-search function in the subjects' electronic medical records. DNA was extracted from the blood samples, processed with bisulfite conversion, and analyzed using Illumina's EPIC array. The analysis of top differentially methylated CpG sites and subsequent enrichment analysis were conducted using an established pipeline using R statistical software. RESULTS Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genome (KEGG) showed several biological pathways relevant to NSAIDs' function. The identified GO terms included "arachidonic acid metabolic process," while KEGG results included "linoleic acid metabolism," "cellular senescence," and "circadian rhythm." Nonetheless, none of the top GO and KEGG pathways and the top differentially methylated CpG sites reached statistical significance. CONCLUSION Our results suggest a potential role of epigenetics in the mechanisms of the action of NSAIDs. However, the results should be viewed with caution as exploratory and hypothesis-generating given the lack of statistically significant findings.

Abstract
Appropriate topical dressings for burn treatments are important to accelerate skin wound recovery and prevent external infections. This study aimed to evaluate the effect and investigate the mechanism of folium crataegi (Crataegus pinnatifida Bge.) for the treatment of burn wounds, as well as to compare the therapeutic effects of aqueous extracts (HLW) and alcoholic extracts (HLE) from folium crataegi. The results demonstrated that both HLW and HLE groups exhibited a higher wound contraction rate than the silver sulfadiazine (SSD) ointment group. Moreover, HLW showed more significant wound repair effects than HLE. HLW significantly increased levels of EGF and FGF-2 in wound tissue, as well as TGF-β1, VEGF, CAT and IL-10 in serum. Folium crataegi extract, especially aqueous extracts, exerted good anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and anti-bacterial effects by upregulating the expression of lag3, txn1 and slpi, respectively. Folium crataegi extract significantly inhibits the expression of npas2, a key gene in the circadian rhythm pathway. In conclusion, this research illustrated that the folium crataegi extract, especially aqueous extracts, had better therapeutic effects on skin burns through multiple ways, possibly including a novel mechanism related to circadian rhythm pathway. These findings suggest that folium crataegi could be a valuable source of compounds for enhancing skin regeneration through multiple ways.

Abstract
CYP2A5, an enzyme responsible for metabolism of diverse drugs, displays circadian rhythms in its expression and activity. However, the underlying mechanisms are not fully established. Here we aimed to investigate a potential role of CRY1/2 (circadian clock modulators) in circadian regulation of hepatic CYP2A5. Regulatory effects of CRY1/2 on CYP2A5 were determined using Cry1-null and Cry2-null mice, and validated using AML-12, Hepa1-6 and HepG2 cells. CYP2A5 activities both in vivo and in vitro were assessed using coumarin 7-hydroxylation as a probe reaction. mRNA and protein levels were detected by qPCR and western blotting, respectively. Regulatory mechanism was studied using a combination of luciferase reporter assays, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP). We found that ablation of Cry1 or Cry2 in mice reduced hepatic CYP2A5 expression (at both mRNA and protein levels) and blunted its diurnal rhythms. Consistently, these knockouts showed decreased CYP2A5 activity (characterised by coumarin 7-hydroxylation) and a loss of its time-dependency, as well as exacerbated coumarin-induced hepatotoxicity. Cell-based assays confirmed that CRY1/2 positively regulated CYP2A5 expression and rhythms. Based on combined luciferase reporter, ChIP and Co-IP assays, we unraveled that CRY1/2 interacted with E4BP4 protein to repress its inhibitory effect on Cyp2a5 transcription and expression. In conclusion, CRY1/2 regulate rhythmic CYP2A5 in mouse liver through repression of E4BP4. These findings advance our understanding of circadian regulation of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics.

Abstract
Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are the main representatives of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which is a chronic, relapsing inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract mediated by the immune system. The pathogenesis of IBD is still not fully clarified. Currently, several studies have reported that circadian abnormality has profound effects on the immune system and intestinal microflora. Meanwhile, it is widely accepted that immune function and intestinal microbiota are two major factors in the pathogenesis of IBD. However, the role of the circadian rhythm in relation to IBD is relatively less understood and largely unexplored. The aim of this review is to present the current state of knowledge about the relationship between circadian rhythm disorders, sleep disturbance, and IBD to analyze the possibility of employing this knowledge in IBD diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Psychological stress is a major factor contributing to health discrepancies among individuals. Sustained exposure to stress triggers signalling pathways in the brain, which leading to the release of stress hormones in the body. Cortisol, a steroid hormone, is a significant biomarker for stress management due to its responsibility in the body's reply to stress. The release of cortisol in bloodstream prepares the body for a "fight or flight" response by increasing heart rate, blood pressure, metabolism, and suppressing the immune system. Detecting cortisol in biological samples is crucial for understanding its role in stress and personalized healthcare. Traditional techniques for cortisol detection have limitations, prompting researchers to explore alternative strategies. Electrochemical sensing has emerged as a reliable method for point-of-care (POC) cortisol detection. This review focuses on the progress made in electrochemical sensors for cortisol detection, covering their design, principle, and electroanalytical methodologies. The analytical performance of these sensors is also analysed and summarized. Despite significant advancements, the development of electrochemical cortisol sensors faces challenges such as biofouling, sample preparation, sensitivity, flexibility, stability, and recognition layer performance. Therefore, the need to develop more sensitive electrodes and materials is emphasized. Finally, we discussed the potential strategies for electrode design and provides examples of sensing approaches. Moreover, the encounters of translating research into real world applications are addressed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The endogenous cannabinoid system (ECS) is involved in the regulation of a variety of physiological activities in the body, such as metabolism and energy uptake, and cannabinoid receptor 2 (CNR2) is one of these receptors that is predominantly distributed in the periphery. β-caryophyllene (BCP) is an agonist of CNR2 which is known to possess pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. In this study, we wanted to investigate whether BCP possesses pharmacological effects on obese mice and its mechanism. METHODS Reversed feeding rhythm, propylthiouracil was delivered intraperitoneally, and BCP was gavaged once daily for four weeks to establish a hyperlipidemic obese mouse model. A glucose tolerance test, lipid level measurements, liver, peritoneal, and subcutaneous fat removal, HE and Oil Red O staining of the liver, and immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining with an anti-CNR2 antibody were all carried out. The liver was examined using tools like GO and KEGG databases for differentially expressed genes and signaling pathways linked to medication effectiveness. RESULTS BCP had significant effects on weight reduction and improvement of dyslipidemia. What's more, it significantly reduced body fat percentage, improved steatosis and ballooning of liver cells, and reduced fat accumulation, while inhibiting the proliferation of peri-abdominal adipocytes. BCP exerted its effects to improve dyslipidemia and reduce body weight probably through circadian regulation and cholesterol metabolic pathways. Finally, and its efficacy in improving dyslipidemia and reducing body weight may be mainly through activating CNR2, activating SIRT1/PGC-1α/PPARγ and SIRT1/AMPK pathways. CONCLUSION BCP activates the CNR2, SIRT1/PGC-1α/PPARγ signaling pathway, and SIRT1/AMPK signaling pathway to exert dyslipidemia-improving and weight-loss effects.

Abstract
PURPOSE Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) is a common disease that negatively affects the life quality of human beings. Circadian rhythm acts an important role in life activities. However, whether the clock genes are rhythmic expressed in mandibular condylar chondrocytes, or the clock genes have an effect on the progression of TMJOA remains unknown. In this study, we aim to explore expression of clock genes and regulatory mechanism of TMJOA in rat mandibular condylar chondrocytes. METHODS After synchronized by dexamethasone, the expression of core clock genes Per1, Per2, Clock, Cry1, Cry2 and Bmal1 and cartilage matrix degrading factor gene Mmp13 were analyzed in mandibular condylar chondrocytes every 4 h with RT-qPCR. The mandibular condylar chondrocytes were stimulated with IL-1β, and expression of Per1, Mmp13, P65 and p-P65 was assessed by RT-qPCR and Western blot. Sh-Per1 lentivirus was used to assess the effect of clock gene Per1 in IL-1β-induced chondrocytes, and expression of Mmp13, P65 and p-P65 was measured. After establishing a rat TMJOA model using unilateral anterior crossbite (UAC), micro-CT, H & E, Alcian Blue & Nuclear Fast Red and Safranin O & Fast Green, cartilage thickness was utilized to assess the damage of cartilage and subchondral bone. Immunohistochemistry of PER1, MMP13 and P65 was performed in condylar sections. RESULTS All core clock genes and Mmp13 were rhythmically expressed. And Mmp13 expression curve was closed in phase and amplitude with Per1. After stimulation with IL-1β, the expression of MMP13, PER1 and P65 and ratio of p-P65/P65 increased in condylar chondrocytes. After Per1 was down-regulated in condylar chondrocytes, the expression of MMP13 and P65 and ratio of p-P65/P65 decreased. Compared with the condyles of Sham group, the bony parameters of UAC group were significantly worse. The thickness of cartilage in UAC group significantly reduced. The modified Mankin scores and the expression of PER1, MMP13 and P65 in cartilage of UAC group significantly increased compared with Sham group. CONCLUSION Core clock genes and Mmp13 are rhythmic expressed in rat mandibular condylar chondrocytes. PER1 can regulate the expression of MMP13 through NF-κB pathway in IL-1β-induced mandibular condylar chondrocytes.

Abstract
Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), one of the highest causes of cancer-associated death, has effective treatments, especially for patients with advanced HCC. Circadian rhythm participates in several important physiological functions, and its chronic disruption results in many disordered diseases, including cancer. However, the role of circadian rhythm in the overall survival (OS) of patients with HCC remains unclear. Methods We investigated the expression, copy number variation (CNV), and mutation profiles of core circadian clock genes in normal and tumor tissues. We developed and validated a messenger RNA signature (mRNASig) based on prognostic circadian clock genes. A set of bioinformatic tools were applied for functional annotation and tumor-associated microenvironment (TME) analysis. Results Core circadian clock genes were disrupted in terms of the transcription and CNV of HCC samples. The mRNASig, including NPAS2, NR1D1, PER1, RORC, and TIMELESS, was constructed. We divided patients with HCC into high-risk group and low-risk group based on the median value of the risk score. The high-risk group had a poorer prognosis than the low-risk group. The high-risk group was associated with malignant processes (e.g., proliferation, oncogenic pathway, DNA repair), metabolism, and tumor mutational burden (TMB). Surprisingly, the low-risk group was associated with enriched angiogenesis and was linked to enhanced response to sorafenib. Moreover, the high-risk group showed poor infiltration of CD8 T cells and natural killer cells accompanied by higher expression of CTLA4, PDCD1, TIGIT, and TIM3. Additionally, the mRNASig was associated with TMB. Conclusions The mRNASig based on core circadian clock genes is a potential prognostic signature and therapeutic strategy and is significantly associated with the malignant biology of HCC.

Abstract
AIMS Circadian clocks play important role in immunoregulation. We aimed to investigate cardiac circadian clock specific pathways and compare cardiac grafts procured at different timing on survival after transplantation to explore novel criteria for donor selection. METHODS AND RESULTS In primate heart, phase set enrichment analysis (PSEA) showed rhythmic transcripts were enriched in antigen processing and presentation during activation of circadian rhythm. Digital sorting of immune cell composition and single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) in unused donor transcriptomes showed the pathway, positive regulation of circadian rhythm significantly correlates with allograft rejection and antigen presentation pathways as well as with increased compositions of matured dendritic cell, CD4+ T cell, and naive B cell. Single-centre retrospective cohort of 390 adult heart transplants between 1 January 2015 and 31 December 2020 was used to generate a propensity score matching (PSM) cohort. Survival curve differed significantly showing inferior long-term survival when donor hearts were procured at activation group (12 pm to 12 am) compared to repression group (12 am to 12 pm) (6-year survival: 64.2% vs. 75.8%, P = 0.0065). Activation group was also associated with significantly higher rates of in-hospital death, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and usage of mechanical circulatory support after heart transplantation compared to repression group. Furthermore, tendency for post-transplant free of rejection rates was higher in repression group compared to activation group (acute rejection, Gehan-Breslow P = 0.11 and 0.04; chronic rejection, Log rank P = 0.077 and 0.15, in full and PSM cohorts, respectively). Adjusted Cox regression analysis showed that activation group was associated with 2.20 times increased hazard of death (hazard ratio: 2.20; 95% confidence interval: 1.23-3.95; P = 0.008) compared to repression group. CONCLUSIONS Circadian immunity may represent donor-related risk factors for cardiac allograft rejection through activating genes related to antigen presentation pathway and immune cells oscillation at specific time of day. Molecular circadian clock should be considered during retrieval of cardiac allografts in order to maximize graft durability.

BACKGROUND Suboptimal rest-activity patterns in adolescence are associated with worse health outcomes in adulthood. Understanding sociodemographic factors associated with rest-activity rhythms may help identify subgroups who may benefit from interventions. This study aimed to investigate the association of rest-activity rhythm with demographic and socioeconomic characteristics in adolescents. METHODS Using cross-sectional data from the nationally representative National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2014 adolescents (N = 1814), this study derived rest-activity profiles from 7-day 24-hour accelerometer data using functional principal component analysis. Multiple linear regression was used to assess the association between participant characteristics and rest-activity profiles. Weekday and weekend specific analyses were performed in addition to the overall analysis. RESULTS Four rest-activity rhythm profiles were identified, which explained a total of 82.7% of variance in the study sample, including (1) High amplitude profile; (2) Early activity window profile; (3) Early activity peak profile; and (4) Prolonged activity/reduced rest window profile. The rest-activity profiles were associated with subgroups of age, sex, race/ethnicity, and household income. On average, older age was associated with a lower value for the high amplitude and early activity window profiles, but a higher value for the early activity peak and prolonged activity/reduced rest window profiles. Compared to boys, girls had a higher value for the prolonged activity/reduced rest window profiles. When compared to Non-Hispanic White adolescents, Asian showed a lower value for the high amplitude profile, Mexican American group showed a higher value for the early activity window profile, and the Non-Hispanic Black group showed a higher value for the prolonged activity/reduced rest window profiles. Adolescents reported the lowest household income had the lowest average value for the early activity window profile. CONCLUSIONS This study characterized main rest-activity profiles among the US adolescents, and demonstrated that demographic and socioeconomic status factors may shape rest-activity behaviors in this population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent and debilitating joint disease without an effective therapeutic option. Multiple risk factors for OA have been identified, including abnormal chondrocyte miRNA secretion and circadian rhythms disruption, both of which have been found to cause progressive damage and loss of articular cartilage. Environmental disruption of circadian rhythms in mice predisposes animals to cartilage injury and OA. METHODS The role of miR-195/497 cluster during OA progression was verified by mouse OA model with intra-articular injection of Agomir and Antagomir. We performed micro-CT analysis, Osteoarthritis Research Society International scores, and histological analysis in mouse knee joints. RNA sequencing was performed on the mouse cartilage cell line to explore the molecular mechanism of the miR-195/497 cluster and proteins in signaling pathway were evaluated using Western blot. Senescence-associated phenotypes were detected by Western blot, senescence β-galactosidase staining, and immunofluorescence. RESULTS This study demonstrated that miR-195/497-5p expression is disrupted in OA with senescent chondrocytes. In addition, miR-195/497-5p influenced the circadian rhythm of mice chondrocytes by modulating the expression of the Per2 protein, resulting in the gradual degradation of articular cartilage. We found that the miR-195/497 cluster targets DUSP3 expression. The deletion of the miR-195/497 cluster increased the level of DUSP3 expression and decreased the levels of phosphorylated ERK 1/2 and CREB. Per2 transcription is upregulated by stimulating CREB and ERK 1/2 phosphorylation. CONCLUSION Our findings identify a regulatory mechanism connecting chondrocyte miR-195/497-5p to cartilage maintenance and repair and imply that circadian rhythm disturbances affected by miR-195/497-5p are risk factors for age-related joint diseases such as OA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Though many abiotic factors are constantly changing, the photoperiod is a predictable factor that enables plants to time many physiological responses. This timing is regulated by the circadian clock, yet little is known about how the clock adapts to the differences in photoperiod between mid-latitudes and high latitudes. The primary objective of this study was to compare how clock gene expression is modified in four woodland strawberry (Fragaria vesca L.) accessions originating from two different populations in Italy (IT1: Tenno, Italy, 45°N, IT4: Salorno, Italy, 46°N) and two in Northern Norway (NOR2: Alta, Norway, 69°N, NOR13: Indre Nordnes, Norway 69°N) when grown under simulated daylength conditions of an Arctic or mid-latitude photoperiod. The second objective was to investigate whether population origin or the difference in photoperiod influenced phytohormone accumulation. RESULTS The Arctic photoperiod induced lower expression in IT4 and NOR13 for six clock genes (FvLHY, FvRVE8, FvPRR9, FvPRR7, FvPRR5, and FvLUX), in IT1 for three genes (FvLHY, FvPRR9, and FvPRR5) and in NOR2 for one gene (FvPRR9). Free-running rhythms for FvLHY in IT1 and IT4 were higher after the Arctic photoperiod, while the free-running rhythm for FvLUX in IT4 was higher after the mid-latitude photoperiod. IT1 showed significantly higher expression of FvLHY and FvPRR9 than all other accessions, as well as significantly higher expression of the circadian regulated phytohormone, abscisic acid (ABA), but low levels of salicylic acid (SA). NOR13 had significantly higher expression of FvRVE8, FvTOC1, and FvLUX than all other accessions. NOR2 had extremely low levels of auxin (IAA) and high levels of the jasmonate catabolite, hydroxyjasmonic acid (OH-JA). CONCLUSIONS Our study shows that circadian rhythms in Fragaria vesca are driven by both the experienced photoperiod and genetic factors, while phytohormone levels are primarily determined by specific accessions' genetic factors rather than the experienced photoperiod.

Abstract
This study investigates the influence of chronotype on the prevalence of temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD) and the morphology of temporomandibular joint (TMJ). According to the Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire-Self-Assessment, the participants were divided into morning group (n = 30), intermediate group (n = 83), and evening group (n = 30). Thirty participants were randomly selected from the intermediate group for subsequent examination and measurements. The morphology of TMJs was investigated using questionnaire and clinical examination form in Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorder. Meanwhile, the morphological results of TMJs were measured from cone-beam computed tomography images. The prevalence rate of TMD in the morning group (23%) was significantly lower than that in the intermediate group (56.7%), while there was no difference between the evening (53.4%) and intermediate groups. As to morphological measurements, there was no significant difference among three groups in mediolateral width of condylar process, anteroposterior width of condylar process, radius of condyle, medial joint space, lateral joint space, condylar stress angle, horizontal condylar inclination, width of glenoid fossa, depth of glenoid fossa, and posterior joint space, while there was a significant difference in horizontal condylar angle (p = 0.00490), articular eminence inclination (p < .0001), anterior joint space (p = 0.0163), and superior joint space (p = 0.0004). The morphology of TMJ in the morning group was better than that in the evening and intermediate groups. An association was found between TMD prevalence, temporomandibular morphology, and chronotype.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease has one of the highest mortality rates in the country, and methods such as thrombolysis and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can effectively improve symptoms and reduce mortality, but most patients still experience symptoms such as chest pain after PCI, which seriously affects their quality of life and increases the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events (myocardial ischaemiareperfusion injury, MIRI). MIRI has been shown to be closely associated with circadian rhythm disorders and mitochondrial dysfunction. Mitochondria are a key component in the maintenance of normal cardiac function, and new research shows that mitochondria have circadian properties. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), as a traditional therapeutic approach characterised by a holistic concept and evidence-based treatment, has significant advantages in the treatment of MIRI, and there is an interaction between the yin-yang theory of TCM and the circadian rhythm of Western medicine at various levels. This paper reviews the clinical evidence for the treatment of MIRI in TCM, basic experimental studies on the alleviation of MIRI by TCM through the regulation of mitochondria, the important role of circadian rhythms in the pathophysiology of MIRI, and the potential mechanisms by which TCM regulates mitochondrial circadian rhythms to alleviate MIRI through the regulation of the biological clock transcription factor. It is hoped that this review will provide new insights into the clinical management, basic research and development of drugs to treat MIRI.

Abstract
PURPOSE Circadian rhythms control a wide range of physiological processes and may be associated with fatigue, depression, and sleep problems. We aimed to identify subgroups of breast cancer survivors based on symptoms of fatigue, insomnia, and depression; and assess whether circadian parameters (i.e., chronotype, amplitude, and stability) were associated with these subgroups over time. METHODS Among breast cancer survivors, usual circadian parameters were assessed at 3-4 months after diagnosis (T0), and symptoms of fatigue, depression, and insomnia were assessed after 2-3 years (T1, N = 265) and 6-8 years (T2, N = 169). We applied latent class analysis to classify survivors in unobserved groups ("classes") based on symptoms at T1. The impact of each of the circadian parameters on class allocation was assessed using multinomial logistic regression analysis, and changes in class allocation from T1 to T2 using latent transition models. RESULTS We identified 3 latent classes of symptom burden: low (38%), moderate (41%), and high (21%). Survivors with a late chronotype ("evening types") or low circadian amplitude ("languid types") were more likely to have moderate or high symptom burden compared to "morning types" and "vigorous types," respectively. The majority of survivors with moderate (59%) or high (64%) symptom burden at T1 had persistent symptom burden at T2. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS A late chronotype and lower circadian amplitude after breast cancer diagnosis were associated with greater symptoms of fatigue, depression, and insomnia at follow-up. These circadian parameters may potentially be novel targets in interventions aimed at alleviating symptom burden among breast cancer survivors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While epidemiological studies have established a firm link between circadian disruption and tumorigenesis, the role and mechanism are not fully understood, complicating the design of therapeutic targets related to circadian rhythms (CR). Here, we aimed to explore the intertumoral heterogeneity of CR and elucidate its impact on the tumor microenvironment (TME), drug sensitivity, and immunotherapy. METHODS Based on unsupervised clustering of 28 CR genes, two distinct CR subtypes (cluster-A and cluster-B) were identified in the TCGA cohort. We further constructed a circadian rhythm signature (CRS) based on the CR genes primarily responsible for clustering to quantify CR activity and to distinguish CR subtypes of individual patients from external datasets. CR subtypes were evaluated by TME characteristics, functional annotation, clinical features, and therapeutic response. RESULTS The cluster-B (low-CRS) group was characterized by highly enriched immune-related pathways, high immune cell infiltration, and high anti-tumor immunity, while the cluster-A (high-CRS) group was associated with immunosuppression, synaptic transmission pathways, EMT activation, poor prognosis, and drug resistance. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) results demonstrated that high CD8+ T cell infiltration was associated with low-CR-protein expression. Importantly, patients with low CRS were more likely to benefit from immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) treatment, possibly due to their higher tumor mutation burden (TMB), increased immune checkpoint expression, and higher proportion of "hot" immunophenotype. CONCLUSION In a nutshell, the cross talk in CR could reflect the TME immunoreactivity in breast cancer. Besides providing the first comprehensive pathway-level analysis of CR in breast cancer, this work highlights the potential clinical utility of CR for immunotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The epidemic of obesity is associated with a substantial, complex and escalating burden of disease. Dietary and lifestyle interventions provide the mainstay of management; however, obesity is multifactorial and challenging to address clinically. Disrupted circadian behaviours, including late eating, are associated with obesity. Time-restricted feeding (TRF), the confinement of calorie intake to a temporal 'eating window', has received growing interest as a weight-loss intervention. Benefits are purported to arise from the fasting period and strengthened circadian metabolism. However, the current evidence-base for TRF is small-scale, limited, and there has been little evaluation of circadian schedule. This research aims to enable evidence-based conclusions regarding circadian-aligned TRF as a weight-loss intervention in obesity. METHODS A systematic three-tranche search strategy was conducted within PubMed. Included studies were critically evaluated. Search tranches scoped: interventional evidence for TRF; evidence linking meal timing, obesity and metabolic function; and evidence linking circadian function, obesity, and dysmetabolism. Results were summarised in a narrative analysis. RESULTS A total of 30 studies were included. From small-scale and short-term evidence, TRF was consistently associated with improved weight, glycaemic and anthropometric outcomes versus baseline or control. Good adherence and safety, and consistency of results between studies, were notable. Earlier ('circadian-aligned') eating was associated with greater diet-induced thermogenesis, and improved weight loss and glycaemic outcomes. Limited evidence suggested meaningful correlations between circadian clock function and obesity/metabolic risk. CONCLUSIONS Circadian-aligned TRF may present a promising intervention for weight loss and metabolic benefits in obese/overweight individuals.
