Vasopressin Signal Inhibition in Aged Mice Decreases Mortality under Chronic Jet Lag

Summary: Chronic jet lag, a model of shiftwork, increases mortality in aged mice. One potential reason for this association is that the chronic desynchronization between the internal clock phase and the environmental light/dark (LD) cycle might increase the mortality rate. However, this hypothesis h...
