Summary
This paper explores the role of zinc in the circadian system, specifically its presence in areas critical for circadian functioning, but does not identify a specific role for zinc in these areas.
Categories
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the role of zinc in the nervous system and its potential to modulate circadian rhythms, which are critical for cognitive function and memory.
Sleep and insomnia: The paper explores the role of zinc in the circadian system, which regulates sleep cycles.
Hormone regulation: The paper discusses the role of zinc in the circadian system, which is involved in the regulation of various hormones.
