  1. #Peroxisomes detox metabolites & regulate lipid #metabolism, but how is their protein import coordinated in space & time? This study shows that #circadian, glia-specific Pex5-dependent peroxisomal import controls #sleep behavior & #lipid metabolism @PLOSBiology 🧪 plos.io/4puXcvm

  2. Does the mammalian #circadian clock manage to temperature-compensate during deep #hypothermia? This study shows that mice maintain circadian rhythms during a #hibernation -like hypothermic state, and that this is supported by systemic regulatory mechanisms @PLOSBiology plos.io/4tW1pJt

  3. How are #circadian rhythms established during development? This study shows that maternal metabolic signals oscillate in the fetal #SCN before the endogenous #clock becomes functional, offering a plausible mechanism for maternal entrainment of the developing clock @PLOSBiology plos.io/3VD45fZ

  4. The #SuprachiasmaticNucleus (SCN) is a central clock, coordinating an animal's rhythmicity. This study reveals that AVP neurons in the #SCN are the main determinant of period, regulating other SCN neurons, and influencing #circadian rhythms #PLOSBiology plos.io/44tP8yM
