Summary
This paper investigates the effects of light-induced circadian disruption on atherosclerosis in ApolipoproteinE-deficient mice, finding that such disruption can increase atherosclerosis and cholesterol levels.
Categories
Heart disease: The paper investigates the impact of light-induced circadian disruption on atherosclerosis, a form of heart disease, in mice.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the role of the circadian system, which is involved in cognitive function and memory, in the development of atherosclerosis.
Shift work: The paper mimics the circadian disruption experienced by shift workers to study its effects on atherosclerosis.
Hormone regulation: The paper discusses the role of hormones, which are regulated by the circadian system, in the development of atherosclerosis.
Lighting Design Considerations: The paper uses different lighting conditions to induce circadian disruption in mice, which is relevant to lighting design considerations.
