Research Abstract

It is well-known that hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis has an apparent circadian rhythm. We evaluated the circadian behavioral variation on MC2R deficient mice. There was no difference on behavioral rhythms under light-dark cycle between wild-type mice and MC2R knockout mice. Behavioral pattern under constant darkness is now under investigation.
