Intrinsic circadian timekeeping properties of the thalamic lateral geniculate nucleus

This study identifies autonomous circadian timekeeping mechanisms in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) of the thalamus, showing intrinsic clock gene expression and light-entrainable oscillations in specific subregions.

Rhythmic neuronal activities of the rat nucleus of the solitary tract are impaired by short-term high fat diet - implications for daily control of satiety by the brainstem

The paper investigates how short-term high-fat diet affects circadian rhythms and neuronal activity in the rat nucleus of the solitary tract, impacting satiety control.

Orexin A excites the rat olivary pretectal nucleus via OX2 receptor in a daily manner

The paper shows that orexin A excites OPN neurons via OX2 receptor with higher responsiveness at night, and OPN firing increases during the day.

Daily changes in neuronal activities of the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus under standard and short-term high fat diet - implications for circadian modulation of parasympathetic outflow

The paper shows that DMV neuronal activity varies daily and is modulated by diet, with high-fat diets paradoxically increasing daily variation but reducing responsiveness to metabolic neuromodulators.

Daily orexinergic modulation of the rat superficial layers of the superior colliculus - implications for intrinsic clock activities in the visual system

The paper investigates daily orexinergic modulation of the rat superior colliculus, showing circadian coordination between orexin input and visual system activity.
