Environmental circadian disruption alters rhythmicity of clock and epigenetic gene expression in SKH-1 female mouse livers.

Endogenous circadian rhythms are primarily entrained by environmental cues that are used to regulate the function of cells and peripheral tissues throughout the body. We found that disrupted light schedules - reflective of shift work conditions - demonstrated impaired gene expression throughout the 24-h day in core clo...
