Circadian Rhythm Generation and Entrainment in Astrocytes -- Prolo et al. 25 (2): 404 -- Journal of Neuroscience

Circadian Rhythm Generation and Entrainment in Astrocytes -- Prolo et al. 25 (2): 404 -- Journal of Neuroscience


Okay, okay , okay...so here is the del. I decided to look up glia and SCN on Google, to see why or how glia may affect sleep. Pro-inflammatory cytokines acting on glial signalling disrupt sleep cycles. When I write about the articles I received from Linda R. Watkins at the University Of Colorado Neuroscience Lab, this will become clearer as to why it is important. But.... needless to say there is a relationship, it seems to be very important, and to me the implications for putting all the pieces together will be amazing- not only in chronic pain, but in a myriad of areas that are currently mysteries to those who live and work with them. Does that sound spooky enough......????
