Unleashing the Secrets of the Circadian System: Advances in Protein Chemistry and Structural Biology

Edited by renowned expert Rossen Donev, Volume 137 in the esteemed Advances in Protein Chemistry and Structural Biology series delves into the intricacies of the circadian system, shedding light on its profound impact on human health and disease.

Comprehensive Coverage of Circadian Systems and Genes

This volume presents an array of fascinating chapters that delve into the importance of circadian system genes for human health, the impact of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on gene function and phenotype, and the intricate relationships between circadian rhythm and diseases, including the role of sex hormones.

State-of-the-Art Research on Circadian Clock Regulation and Reproduction

Leading international experts contribute cutting-edge research on advances in circadian clock regulation of reproduction, as well as the disruption of clock gene expression in central and peripheral circadian oscillators due to maternal overnutrition in the Oryctolagus cuniculus.

Circadian System and Disease Management: COVID-19 and Beyond

The book also explores the critical role of the circadian system in disease management, including the management of COVID-19, and its correlation with survival percentage in colorectal cancer patients.

Unraveling the Mysteries of Circadian Gene Expression and Rhythmic Cardiac Proteins

Further sections of the book provide in-depth analysis of molecular characterization of circadian gene expression, identifying circadian gene signatures that estimate overall survival from colon adenocarcinoma, and the role of environmental signals in the expression of rhythmic cardiac proteins and their influence on cardiac pathologies.

With contributions from an international board of authors, this volume serves as a definitive authority on the circadian system, providing the latest information and expert insights for researchers, scientists, and healthcare professionals.

Published by Elsevier Science in September 2023, this essential reference is a must-have for anyone seeking to delve into the complexities of the circadian system and its far-reaching implications for human health and disease.
