Evidence of an oscillating peripheral clock in an equine fibroblast cell line and adipose tissue but not in peripheral blood. The master mammalian pacemaker in the brain controls numerous diverse physiological and behavioral processes throughout the organism. Timing information is continually transmitted from the master clock to peripheral organs to synchronize rhythmic daily oscillations of clock gene transcripts and control local physiology. To investigate the presence of peripheral clocks in the horse, quantitative real-time RT-PCR assays were designed to detect levels of equine clock genes. Expression profiles for Per2, Bmal1 and Cry1 were first determined in a synchronized equine cell line. Subsequently, express...
