Summary
This paper investigates the effects of light and feeding patterns on circadian rhythms in various metabolites, focusing on lipids and hepatic proteins, and finds that these rhythms shift according to a phase response curve, with implications for treating circadian misalignment in shift workers.
Categories
Shift work: The paper discusses the implications of its findings for treating circadian misalignment in shift workers, who consume meals and are exposed to light around the clock.
Hormone regulation: The paper investigates the effects of light and feeding patterns on circadian rhythms in various metabolites, including hormones like melatonin.
Phototherapy: The study uses light exposure as a stimulus to investigate its effects on circadian rhythms in various metabolites.
