Riassunto
The interest in chronobiology has raised in recent years, also thanks to the contribution of molecular biology in detecting the genes responsible for circadian rhythms, because the understanding of mechanisms underlying circadian rhythms and their changes in normal ageing and pathologies like neurodegeneration could provide new approaches in diagnosing and preventing these disorders.
The aims of the study were (1) to determinethe incidence of circadian locomotor output cycle kaput (CLOCK) gene T3111C and PER2 gene C111G polymorphisms in a cohort of Alzheimer’s disease and Mild Cognitive Impairment patients compared to healthy age matched controls, (2) to evaluate sleep parameters and circadian rhythms in the same population by actigraphy.
