Chronobiotic Signaling

Meaning

Chronobiotic Signaling refers to the intricate, time-sensitive biochemical communication pathways that govern and maintain the precise synchronization of the body’s numerous internal circadian rhythms with the external light-dark cycle and behavioral cues. This system dictates the rhythmic, predictable secretion of critical hormones and neurotransmitters, thereby timing essential physiological processes like the sleep-wake cycle, energy metabolism, and cellular repair. Maintaining robust, coherent chronobiotic signaling is foundational for endocrine homeostasis and overall metabolic health.
