The circadian clock regulates scavenging of fluid-borne substrates by brain border-associated macrophages

Helena J. Barr, Sydney K. Caldwell, Justin M. Reimertz, Constanze Depp, Alec J. Walker, Samuel E. Marsh, Anushree S. Gupte, Maximilian Hingerl, Jasmin Patel, Sang-O Park, Sarah Ferraro, Jonathan Lipton, Beth Stevens

This study identifies brain border-associated macrophages (BAMs) as rhythmic cells regulated by the circadian clock, showing that their endocytic activity and amyloid-beta uptake are disrupted with age and in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.

Sexually dimorphic influence of the circadian clock gene Bmal1 in the striatum on alcohol intake

Nuria de Zavalía, Konrad Schoettner, Jory A. Goldsmith, Pavel Solis, Sarah Ferraro, Gabrielle Parent, Shimon Amir

This study shows that Bmal1 deletion in striatal neurons affects alcohol intake differently in male and female mice, with males showing increased intake and females decreased intake.
