Regulation of clock gene expression in peripheral tissues under ZD conditions. (a) Diurnal mRNA expression profiles for Bmal1 (top), Per2 (middle), and Dbp (bottom) in three peripheral tissues on in-phase (solid black line) and anti-phase (dashed grey line) days determined by qPCR. Data represent 3 independent experiments. Grey shading depicts time of food access (180° = “food in”). (b) Phase shifts of peripheral tissue clock gene expression rhythms between in-phase and anti-phase days. Data are shown as means ± SEM, n = 2–4 animals per time point.
