| Abstract | The existence and maintenance of biological rhythms linked to the 24-h light-dark cycle are essential to the health and functioning of an organism. Although much is known concerning central clock mechanisms, much less is known about control in peripheral tissues. In this study, circadian regulation of gene expression was examined in rat skeletal muscle. A rich time series involving 54 animals euthanized at 18 distinct time points within the 24-h cycle was performed, and mRNA expression in gastrocnemius muscles was examined using Affymetrix gene arrays. Data mining identified 109 genes that were expressed rhythmically, which could be grouped into eight distinct temporal clusters within the 24-h cycle. These genes were placed into 11 functional categories, which were examined within the context of temporal expression. Transcription factors involved in the regulation of central rhythms were examined, and eight were found to be rhythmically expressed in muscle. Because endogenous glucocorticoids are a major effector of circadian rhythms, genes identified here were compared with those identified in previous studies as glucocorticoid regulated. Of the 109 genes identified here as circadian rhythm regulated, only 55 were also glucocorticoid regulated. Examination of transcription factors involved in circadian control suggests that corticosterone may be the initiator of their rhythmic expression patterns in skeletal muscle. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
