ThermoClock: A Novel Automated Temperature Regulation Device that Can Model Circadian Entrainment and Disruption in 2D and 3D in Vitro Models

Kaiyin Kelly Zhang, Cathryn A. Cutia, Chanelle A. Moise…·Cathal John Kearney

ThermoClock is an automated temperature control system that models circadian entrainment and disruption in 2D and 3D in vitro models, showing that ramp time and cycle duration affect rhythm strength and wound healing.

c-MYC is Transcribed in a Circadian Manner and Acts as a Clock Disruptor whose Timing Minimizes its Impacts

Bhavna Kalyanaraman, Dhivya Ganesh, Vidula A Kunte…·Michelle E. Farkas

This paper demonstrates that c-MYC is expressed in a circadian manner and acts as a clock disruptor, with its timing minimizing its negative impact on circadian rhythms.

Circadian Oscillations Persist in Low Malignancy Breast Cancer Cells

Sujeewa S. Lellupitiyage Don, Hui-Hsien Lin, Jessica J. Furtado…·Michelle E. Farkas

The paper investigates circadian oscillations in breast cancer cells using luciferase reporter lines, finding persistent oscillations in low-grade MCF7 cells but not in high-grade MDA-MB-231 cells.
