Circadian rhythm involves diurnal oscillations in biological processes. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Leone et al. (2015) show that the gut microbiota influences the circadian clock and undergoes circadian oscillations. Microbiota-produced metabolites change with host diet and may affect circadian rhythm, highlighting functional links between diet and physiology.
昼夜节律涉及生物过程中的昼夜波动。在本期《细胞宿主与微生物》中,Leone 等人(2015)表明,肠道微生物群会影响生物钟并发生昼夜节律波动。微生物群产生的代谢物随宿主饮食而变化,可能会影响昼夜节律,突出了饮食与生理之间的功能联系。
