Martinez J, Kasamatsu M, Rosales-Hernandez A, Hanson L, Frey W, Toth C
Mol Pain
. 2012 Jan;
8:3.
PMID: 22236461
Background: Although pregabalin therapy is beneficial for neuropathic pain (NeP) by targeting the CaVα2δ-1 subunit, its site of action is uncertain. Direct targeting of the central nervous system may be...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2009 Aug;
106(35):15043-8.
PMID: 19706469
A clear demonstration of the role of melatonin and its receptors in specific retinal functions is lacking. The present study investigated the distribution of MT1 receptors within the retina, and...

. 2007 Aug;
24(4):651-69.
PMID: 17701678
This study examined circadian variation in coagulation and fibrinolytic parameters among Jcl:ICR, C3H/HeN, BALB/cA, and C57BL/6J strains of mice. Plasma plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) levels fluctuated in a circadian...

Tosini G, Davidson A, Fukuhara C, Kasamatsu M, Castanon-Cervantes O
FASEB J
. 2007 Jul;
21(14):3866-71.
PMID: 17621597
Several studies have demonstrated that the mammalian retina contains an autonomous circadian clock. Dopaminergic and other inner retinal neurons express many of the clock genes, whereas some of these genes...

Tosini G, Kasamatsu M, Sakamoto K
Brain Res
. 2007 Jun;
1159:134-40.
PMID: 17560558
Previous studies have shown that, in the Royal College of Surgeon rat, circadian rhythms in the retinal dopaminergic and melatonergic systems are still present after the photoreceptors have degenerated, thus...

Brain Res
. 2007 Mar;
1148:76-82.
PMID: 17382912
The study of how the retina processes the photic information required for the entrainment of the circadian system is an exciting new topic in retinal neurobiology. We have recently shown...

J Circadian Rhythms
. 2006 Oct;
4:13.
PMID: 17014730
Background: Although the number of circulating immune cells is subject to high-amplitude circadian rhythms, the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Methods: To determine whether intact CLOCK protein is required...

Mol Vis
. 2006 Mar;
12:117-24.
PMID: 16518309
Purpose: Melatonin synthesis in mammalian retinal photoreceptors is under photic and circadian control and regulated by changes in the activity of arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase (AANAT). Recent studies have suggested that retinal...

Dopamine regulates melanopsin mRNA expression in intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells
Sakamoto K, Liu C, Kasamatsu M, Pozdeyev N, Iuvone P, Tosini G
Eur J Neurosci
. 2005 Dec;
22(12):3129-36.
PMID: 16367779
In mammals a subpopulation of retinal ganglion cells are intrinsically photosensitive (ipRGCs), express the photopigment melanopsin, and play an important role in the regulation of the nonimage-forming visual system. We...

Oishi K, Atsumi G, Sugiyama S, Kodomari I, Kasamatsu M, Machida K, et al.
FEBS Lett
. 2005 Dec;
580(1):127-30.
PMID: 16343493
The Clock gene is a core component of the circadian clock in mammals. We show here that serum levels of triglyceride and free fatty acid were significantly lower in circadian...
