Circadian Clock and Aging

Autor Syed Ibrahim Rizvi, Gaurav Majumdar
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 oct 2024
This book aims to understand the inherent circadian cycles of biological processes and their role in maintaining health and healing a variety of diseases. The book is divided into eight sections. The first section introduces circadian rhythms and aging. The second section focuses on the detailed mechanistic approach of oscillatory pathways in mammals. The next section summarizes the sensitivity of the biological clock towards light and the circadian response to melatonin in mammals. The fourth section addresses the circadian architecture at the cellular level and introduces an age-dependent experimental model of rodents for subsequent biochemical and molecular investigations. The subsequent section covers the complexity of circadian regulation in mitochondrial dynamics and its impact on aging. The sixth section of the book discusses the findings obtained from different experimental approaches as a critical threat to the functioning of clock regulatory mechanisms and its associated health consequences during aging in humans and animal models. The circadian oscillatory mechanisms that are dysregulated and might play an important role in the development and progression of neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), Parkinson’s Disease (PD), Huntington’s Disease (HD), and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), etc are discussed in the next section. Towards the end, the book explores the circadian clock as a possible drug target to restore circadian oscillations.

Dr. Gaurav Majumdar is working as Assistant Professor of Zoology at University of Allahabad, Allahabad. He did his Ph.D. in chronobiology from University of Delhi. His research has focused on the role of circadian and seasonal factors in regulating avian migratory physiology. After his Ph.D., Dr Majumdar acquired two prestigious European post-doctoral research fellowships (BELSPO and FWO) to continue his post-doctoral research at the Bio-imaging laboratory, University of Antwerp, Belgium where he worked on the role of light, opsin molecules and circadian clock in mediating neuro-degenerative diseases with an emphasis on Alzheimer’s disease. He then moved to University of Glasgow to work on molecular mechanism involved in seasonal clock regulation of animal physiology. He has published extensively on circadian clock and its interphase with seasonal physiology of vertebrates. Dr. Gaurav is an executive member of Indian Society for Chronobiology (InSC) and Association of Avian Biologist in India (AABI). Recently he was selected as Young associate (2024) by Indian National Science Academy (INSA). He identifies himself as Son of Snigdha & Sibdas, Husband of Garima and Father of Shinoy.
