Biological rhythms time the ebb and flow of virtually every
physiological process, and their mutual coordination guarantees the
integrity of the organism over space and time. Aging leads to the
disintegration of this coordination, as well as to changes in the
amplitude and/or frequency of the underlying rhythms. The results
of this are accelerated loss of health during aging, and in
experimental model systems curtailed lifespan occurs. This book
will examine the machinery that constitutes circadian systems and
how they impact physiologic processes. It will also discuss how
disturbances of circadian rhythms can lead to complex diseases
associated with aging. Much of this treatment will focus on
metabolism and genome stability. Importantly, the chapters in this
book will encompass work in several different models, in addition
to human. The book will conclude with a discussion of modeling
approaches to biologic cycles and chronotherapy, for future
research and translation.
