Circadian physiology is responsible for the temporal regulation of metabolism to
optimize energy homeostasis throughout the day. Disturbances in the light/dark
cycle, sleep/wake schedule, or feeding/activity behavior can affect the circadian
function of the clocks located in the brain and peripheral tissues. These
alterations have been associated with impaired glucose tolerance and type 2
diabetes. Animal models with molecular manipulation of clock genes and genetic
studies in humans also support these links. It has been demonstrated that the
endocrine pancreas has an intrinsic self-sustained clock, and recent studies have
revealed an important role of clock genes in pancreatic ? cells, glucose
homeostasis, and diabetes.
