Research Abstract |
Bone metabolism is regulated by circadian clock. On the other hand, the central clock system in brain is thought to regulate peripheral clocks including bone. We established a dual imaging system of bioluminescence and fluorescence, which enables us to monitor circadian oscillation from body to cell levels. By exploiting this system, inter-regulation between brain and bone well be further investigated.
