Abstract

Circadian molecular oscillation develops gradually during mammalian development.

  • Pluripotent stem cell differentiation cultures mimic the gradual emergence of circadian rhythms.
  • Reprogramming cells to an undifferentiated state reverses the development of circadian oscillations.
  • The circadian clock is closely linked to the differentiation state of cells.
  • Nonrhythmic cells may exhibit different characteristics in circadian core machinery compared to rhythmic cells.
  • Molecular mechanisms that suppress circadian oscillations are present during early development and in pluripotent stem cells.
