Temperature-compensated circadian clock in the pineal of Anolis.

Abstract:

:The pineal organ of the lizard Anolis carolinensis can be maintained for up to 10 days in superfused organ culture. During this time it synthesizes and releases melatonin into the medium flowing slowly over it. Collection of timed aliquots of medium and subsequent analysis for melatonin by radioimmunoassay reveal circadian rhythms of melatonin output by the isolated pineal. These rhythms persist for many cycles in constant darkness and at several constant ambient temperatures ranging from 22 to 37 degrees C. The period of the rhythm is temperature compensated (Q10 approximately equal to 1.14) and the rhythm is synchronized by light-dark cycles imposed on the cultured gland. This isolated vertebrate organ displays the three major properties of circadian systems and must therefore contain one or more circadian oscillators.

  • Cardioprotection from ischemia by a brief exposure to physiological levels of ethanol: role of epsilon protein kinase C.

Most studies, however, focus on the effect of long-term consumption of ethanol. In this study, we determined whether brief exposure to ethanol immediately before ischemia also produces cardioprotection...
