The encoded protein can interact with ARNTL or compete for E-box binding sites in the promoter of PER1 and repress CLOCK/ARNTL's transactivation of PER1. This gene is believed to be involved in the control of circadian rhythm and cell differentiation. Defects in this gene are associated with the short sleep phenotype.

Regulation of Drosophila Circadian Rhythms by Mirna Let-7 Is Mediated by a Regulatory Cycle
ARTICLE Received 10 Jul 2014 | Accepted 10 Oct 2014 | Published 24 Nov 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms6549 Regulation of Drosophila circadian rhythms by miRNA let-7 is mediated by a regulatory cycle Wenfeng Chen1,*, Zhenxing Liu1,*, Tianjiao Li1, Ruifeng Zhang1, Yongbo Xue1, Yang Zhong1, Weiwei Bai1, Dasen Zhou1 & Zhangwu Zhao1 MicroRNA-mediated post-transcriptional regulations are increasingly recognized as important components of the circadian rhythm. Here we identify microRNA let-7, part of the Drosophila let-7-Complex, as a regulator of circadian rhythms mediated by a circadian regulatory cycle. Overexpression of let-7 in clock neurons lengthens circadian period and its deletion attenuates the morning activity peak as well as molecular oscillation. Let-7 regulates the circadian rhythm via repression of CLOCKWORK ORANGE (CWO). Conversely, upregulated cwo in cwo-expressing cells can rescue the phenotype of let-7-Complex overexpression. Moreover, circadian prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH) and CLOCK- regulated 20-OH ecdysteroid signalling contribute to the circadian expression of let-7 through the 20-OH ecdysteroid receptor. Thus, we find a regulatory cycle involving PTTH, a direct target of CLOCK, and PTTH-driven miRNA let-7. 1 Department of Entomology, College of Agronomy and Biotechnology, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China. * These authors contributed equally to this work.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Circadian Gene Networks In Bone Regeneration A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Science in Oral Biology by Nathaniel Raphael Hassan 2012 ABSTRACT OF THESIS Circadian Gene Networks In Bone Regeneration By Nathaniel Raphael Hassan Master of Science in Oral Biology University of California, Los Angeles, 2012 Professor Ichiro Nishimura, Chair BACKGROUND: Previous studies suggested that vitamin D played a significant role in bone regeneration, facilitating the establishment of implant osseointegration. A whole genome microarray study further suggested that the vitamin D axis might involve circadian rhythm gene expression in the bone peripheral tissue. OBJECTIVES: To identify key gene networks involved with vitamin D receptor in the bone regeneration process and to explore any correlation with circadian rhythm gene expression in bone marrow mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (BMSC). METHODS: The available whole gene microarray data was analyzed using the weighted gene correlation network analysis (WGCNA) R package and Cytoscape software. Any gene expression correlation was examined for vitamin D receptor (VDR) as well as circadian rhythm ii genes. Separately, Per 1 luciferase transgenic Wistar rats were then applied for in vitro evaluation on BMSC circadian rhythm. Per1::luc BMSCs were seeded on 35mm dishes and forskolin-synchronized luminescence was recorded across different media conditions. The recording media included growth medium containing F12 (10% Fetal Bovine Serum, 1% Pen- Strep and antibiotic) supplemented with or without 1 nM 1,25D. Luminescence was also recorded in F12 growth medium containing bone differentiation factors (beta glycerophosphate, Ascorbic acid and Dexamethasone) supplemented with 0, 1 or 10 nM 1,25D. -

Play Clock Operator Guide
NFHS GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR FOOTBALL GAME AND PLAY CLOCK OPERATORS A. The game and play clock operators should report to the game officials at the stadium at least 30 minutes before game time for the following purposes: 1. To synchronize timer’s watch with official game time as established by the game official responsible for timing. 2. To advise game officials whether the game clock operator and/or play clock operator will be in the press box or on the field/side- line. Determine procedure for communications with both operators and test procedures prior to the games. 3. To discuss coordination of starting, stopping and adjusting the game clock or play clock in accordance with the playing rules. 4. To discuss if the game clock horn (mechanical signal) can be turned off. Preference is for the game clock horn (mechanical signal) to be turned off for the duration of the game. B. The game clock is normally started 30 minutes before game time. The halftime intermission will start on the referee’s signal when the players and game officials leave the field. All pregame and halftime activities shall be synchronized with the game clock. The mandatory three-minute warm-up period will be put on the game clock after the intermission time has elapsed and shall be started immediately. C. The game clock operator shall have an extra stopwatch available. In case of failure of the game clock, the game clock operator shall immediately contact the game officials, giving them the correct data regarding the official time. The game official responsible for timing will then pick up the correct game time on the stopwatch. -
Agonists and Knockdown of Estrogen Receptor Β Differentially Affect
Schüler-Toprak et al. BMC Cancer (2016) 16:951 DOI 10.1186/s12885-016-2973-y RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Agonists and knockdown of estrogen receptor β differentially affect invasion of triple-negative breast cancer cells in vitro Susanne Schüler-Toprak1*, Julia Häring1, Elisabeth C. Inwald1, Christoph Moehle2, Olaf Ortmann1 and Oliver Treeck1 Abstract Background: Estrogen receptor β (ERβ) is expressed in the majority of invasive breast cancer cases, irrespective of their subtype, including triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Thus, ERβ might be a potential target for therapy of this challenging cancer type. In this in vitro study, we examined the role of ERβ in invasion of two triple-negative breast cancer cell lines. Methods: MDA-MB-231 and HS578T breast cancer cells were treated with the specific ERβ agonists ERB-041, WAY200070, Liquiritigenin and 3β-Adiol. Knockdown of ERβ expression was performed by means of siRNA transfection. Effects on cellular invasion were assessed in vitro by means of a modified Boyden chamber assay. Transcriptome analyses were performed using Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST microarrays. Pathway and gene network analyses were performed by means of Genomatix and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis software. Results: Invasiveness of MBA-MB-231 and HS578T breast cancer cells decreased after treatment with ERβ agonists ERB-041 and WAY200070. Agonists Liquiritigenin and 3β-Adiol only reduced invasion of MDA-MB-231 cells. Knockdown of ERβ expression increased invasiveness of MDA-MB-231 cells about 3-fold. Transcriptome and pathway analyses revealed that ERβ knockdown led to activation of TGFβ signalling and induced expression of a network of genes with functions in extracellular matrix, tumor cell invasion and vitamin D3 metabolism. -

In Melatonin synthesis mammalian and avian species, only one aanat gene is expressed. However, three aanat genes (aanat1a, aanat1b, Pineal organ and aanat2) are reported in fish species. While aanat1a and aanat1b genes are expressed in the fish retina, the Photoperiod fi Temperature nervous system and other peripheral tissues, aanat2 gene is expressed exclusively in the sh pineal organ. Clock genes form molecular components of the clockwork, which regulates clock-controlled genes like aanat gene. All core clock genes (i.e., clock, bmal1, per1, per2, per3, cry1 and cry2) and aanat2 gene (a clock-controlled gene) are expressed in the pineal organ of several fish species. There is a large body of information on regulation of clock genes, aanat gene and melatonin synthesis in the mammalian pineal gland.
