Abstract
In 3-month-old rats, the number of proteins showing day-night variations in the suprachiasmatic nucleus and substantia nigra was greater than in 12-month, 24-month, and rotenone-induced Parkinson's disease models.
- Aging is associated with changes in the circadian timing system, leading to dysfunction.
- Significant alterations in core clock gene expression levels were observed in aging and Parkinson's disease models.
- In pineal glands, an increase in proteins with day-night variations was noted in 24-month-old rats.
- Melatonin administration may modulate the chronomics of protein profiles in aging and Parkinson's disease.
- Several proteins exhibiting significant day-night variations were identified for the first time in this study.
