## Abstract The suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) of the hypothalamus contain the master circadian clock in mammals. Nocturnal light pulses that reset the circadian clock also lead to rapid increases in levels of __Per1__ and __Per2__ mRNA in the SCN, suggesting that these genes are involved in the sync
## Abstract We reported previously that (__S__)‐5‐[3‐[(1,4‐benzodioxan‐2‐ylmethyl)amino]propoxy]‐1,3‐benzodioxole hydrochloride (MKC‐242) (3 mg kg^−1^, i.p.), a selective 5‐HT~1A~ receptor agonist, accelerated the re‐entrainment of hamster wheel‐running rhythms to a new 8 hr delayed or advanced lig
By using in situ hybridization in the golden hamster brain, we have found that vgf mRNA levels are induced as a response to light stimulation in the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN), the site of the mammalian circadian pacemaker. The induction exhibits delayed kinetics relative to known light-induced im
