The Circadian Clock Is Sustained in the Thyroid Gland of VIP Receptor 2 Deficient Mice

VIP/VPAC2-receptor signaling is crucial for functioning of the circadian clock in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) since the lack results in disrupted synchrony between SCN cells and altered locomotor activity, body temperature, hormone secretion and heart rhythm. Endocrine glands, including the th...
