From: Light entrainment of the SCN circadian clock and implications for personalized alterations of corticosterone rhythms in shift work and jet lag

Figure 1

Schematic representation of the two-level model. Upstream, the positive and negative feedback of the SCN clock genes induce central rhythms entrained to the light/dark cycles. Downstream, the circadian oscillations of AVP as an output from the SCN entrain the HPA axis, leading to circadian oscillation of corticosterone (CORT).
