The adrenal peripheral clock: Glucocorticoid and the circadian timing system

Highlights ► Circadian rhythm of glucocorticoid (GC) is tightly regulated by coincident multiple mechanisms. ► Adrenal local clock regulates periodic steroidogenesis and responsiveness of adrenal GC to ACTH. ► Adrenal clock links the central clock and peripheral clocks in the organization of the clo...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights ► Circadian rhythm of glucocorticoid (GC) is tightly regulated by coincident multiple mechanisms. ► Adrenal local clock regulates periodic steroidogenesis and responsiveness of adrenal GC to ACTH. ► Adrenal clock links the central clock and peripheral clocks in the organization of the clock system. ► Adrenal rhythm have an important role in harmonizing circadian physiology and behavior.
