Figures & data
Notes: The circadian clock consists of transcription/translation feedback loops. The positive regulatory components are transcription factors CLOCK and BMAL1, which heterodimerize and bind to the E Box of clock target genes and activate downstream genes. These target genes are the period (Per 1, 2, and 3), cryptochrome (CRY1 and 2), REV-ERB, RORs, and other clock controlled genes.

Notes: These components affect circadian asynchrony. Accumulated evidence suggests that disruption of circadian synchronization between periods of rest and activity with feeding or fasting, and energy storage or energy utilization may be tightly linked to not only obesity, but also glucose metabolism, vascular reactivity, and lipid homeostasis.
