    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Anton Degerfeldt; [2019]
    Nyckelord :Circadian rhythm; glucocorticoids; endocrine system; circadian disruption; jet lag;

    Sammanfattning : The circadian rhythm is a rhythm which permeates all aspects of biological life and follows the hours of the sun. The pace of the rhythm is controlled by a collection of neurons in the hypothalamus, called the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), whose signals affect rhythms throughout the body as can be seen in aspects of life from behavior down to oscillations of proteins in the cells.

    Nyckelord :BOLD-fMRI; Circadian Rhythms; suprachiasmatic nucleus; sleep disorders; ROI; ON-OFF experimental paradigm; ICA; activated voxels; voxel time series BOLD responses; correlation analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Circadian Rhythms (CR) are driven by a biological clock called as suprachiasmaticnucleus (SCN), located in a brain region called the hypothalamus. These rhythms are very much necessary in maintaining the sleep and wake cycle at appropriate times in a day. LÄS MER
