Abstract

The major pathways involving nutrient and energy metabolism including cellular homeostasis are profoundly impacted by the circadian clock, which orchestrates diurnal rhythms in physiology and behavior. While the links between circadian and metabolic rhythms are unclear, recent studies imply a close link between the two with one feeding back on the other. In this discussion, we present the hypothesis that circadian clocks likely contribute to cellular homeostasis, especially proteostasis, through regulation of metabolic rhythms, which in turn feed-back on circadian oscillators. The disruption of circadian clocks leads to altered metabolic rhythms and metabolic disease states as a result of altered cellular homeostasis.
