These pacemakers govern the circadian expression of multiple behaviors and physiological processes, including rhythms in locomotor activity, endogenous body temperature, electroretinogram, and melatonin synthesis. The numerous, easily measurable rhythmic outputs make the iguana an ideal organism for examining the contributions of individual oscillators and their interactions in governing the expression of overt circadian rhythms. The authors have examined the effects of pinealectomy and enucleation on the endogenous body temperature rhythm (BTR) and locomotor activity rhythm (LAR) of juvenile iguanas at constant temperature both in LD cycles and in constant darkness (DD). They measured the periods (\u03c4) of the circadian rhythms of LAR and BTR, the phase relationships between them in DD (\u03a8\n                    <jats:sub>AT<\/jats:sub>\n                    ), and the phase relationship between each rhythm and the light cycle (\u03a8\n                    <jats:sub>RL<\/jats:sub>\n                    ). Pinealectomy lengthened \u03c4 of locomotor activity in all animals tested and abolished the BTR in two-thirds of the animals. In those animals in which the BTR did persist following pinealectomy, \u03c4 lengthened to the same extent as that of locomotor activity. Pinealectomy also delayed the onset of activity with respect to its normal phase relationship with body temperature in DD. Enucleation alone had no significant effect on \u03c4 of LAR or BTR; however, after enucleation, BTR became 180 \u00b0 out of phase from LAR in DD. After both pinealectomy and enucleation, 4 of 16 animals became arrhythmic in both activity and body temperature. Their data suggest that rhythmicity, period, and phase of overt circadian behaviors are regulated through the combined output of multiple endogenous circadian oscillators.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0748730403261133","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,5,27]],"date-time":"2004-05-27T09:25:01Z","timestamp":1085649901000},"page":"47-57","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Period and Phase Control in a Multioscillatory Circadian System (Iguana Iguana)"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Paul A.","family":"Bartell","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Forschungsstelle f\u00fcr Ornithologie der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft, Von-der-Tann-Strasse 7, D-82346 Erling-Andechs, Germany,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Manuel","family":"Miranda-Anaya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Biolog\u00eda Celular, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Nacional Aut\u00f3noma de M\u00e9xico, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Menaker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology and National Science Foundation Center for Biological Timing, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, Virginia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2004,2,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0306-4522(01)00285-8"},{"key":"atypb2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Bertolucci C and Fo\u00e0 A (1998) Seasonality and the role of the SCN in entrainment of lizard circadian locomotor rhythms to daily melatonin injections.
