Circadian Clock Amplitude Declines in Aging—But Not in Long-Lived Species
Mechanism: Aging mammals exhibit reduced clock gene expression and decreased chromatin accessibility at circadian loci, leading to dampened circadian rhythms. Readout: Readout: Long-lived species maintain robust circadian amplitude and optimal metabolic coordination by preserving high clock gene expression and chromatin accessibility.
Mammalian circadian rhythms dampen with age, disrupting metabolic coordination. In long-lived species, circadian amplitude remains robust. The mechanism may be enhanced clock gene expression and chromatin accessibility at circadian loci that mammals gradually lose.
