What molecular mechanisms link dairy protein intake to circadian clock gene upregulation in diabetes?

OPEN

The study shows dairy consumption upregulates BMAL1, REV-ERBα, and CRY1 expression, but the mechanistic pathway from dairy proteins to circadian gene transcription remains unexplained. Understanding this mechanism could reveal novel therapeutic targets for metabolic disorders affecting circadian rhythms.
