Summary
This paper discusses the use of TetTag technology and the RAM system to mark neuronal activity from a circadian perspective, with a focus on understanding the precise temporal dynamics of these two molecular strategies for potential use in circadian studies.
Categories
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the use of TetTag technology and the RAM system to mark neuronal activity, which is relevant to understanding cognitive function and memory.
Sleep and insomnia: The paper discusses the sleep-wake cycle and how it is regulated by the suprachiasmatic nucleus and the circadian molecular machinery.
Alertness and performance: The paper discusses how neuronal activity, marked by TetTag technology and the RAM system, can vary depending on different states of alertness and sleep.
Education and learning: The paper discusses the use of these technologies in research on memory and learning.
Hormone regulation: The paper discusses how the biological clock of mammals can detect changes in light levels in the external environment through a specific pigment, melanopsin, which is involved in hormone regulation.
Phototherapy: The paper discusses how light or darkness are detected by the intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) through special photoreceptors, the melanopsins, which is relevant to phototherapy.
