This research examines how mechanosensory systems influence circadian rhythms using the fruit fly as a model. It aims to uncover the neurobiological mechanisms behind proprioceptive clock entrainment and the role of circadian genes in sensory function.
All forms of life adjust themselves to the daily rhythms of their environments using endogenous oscillators collectively referred to as circadian clocks.
Peripheral and central body clocks exist, which both require extrinsic information (e.g. light or temperature changes) to keep in sync with the geophysical cycle (entrainment).
In addition, intrinsic cues (e.g. activity levels) have been linked to clock entrainment.
Recently, we could show that activation of proprioceptors is sufficient to entr…
