    Haplogendis initiative - SICA

    Acta Endo (Buc) 2009 5(1): 143-148 doi: 10.4183/aeb.2009.143

    Abstract
    In response to increasing interest of the European Commission on large-scale\r\ngenotyping for complex diseases, including variability in ethnic minorities in\r\nEurope (HEALTH-2009-4.3.3-1), at the end of 2008 we composed the\r\nHAPLOGENDIS consortium with partners from Russia and European countries. A\r\nfirst program (SICA) was proposed in cooperation with Russian Federal Agency for\r\nScience and Innovation, focusing on comparative population genetics on diseases\r\naccompanied by insulin resistance. Beside the specificity in analyzing the human\r\ngenome with SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) and defining haplotype\r\nstructure of genes, the program rises new hypotheses which directly link\r\ncolonization of Europe at the Neolithic period from Eastern Ukraine or Anatolia\r\nwith the development of agriculture and major dietary and life style changes that\r\nmay have an impact on the genome. Although there will be many occasions to\r\nreview both genetic and clinical detailed aspects, this short note will expose some\r\nunifying ideas that joint these partners.

    Nutrition and the Clock Gene

    Acta Endo (Buc) 2015 11(4): 489-491 doi: 10.4183/aeb.2015.489

    Abstract
    A number of recent studies in animals and humans have linked energy regulation and the circadian clock at the molecular, physiological and behavioural levels, concluding that disruption of clock genes results in metabolic dysregulation. The search to understand the causes of obesity and diabetes and the development of new therapeutic strategies have mostly focused on caloric intake and energy balance. In this review, we present a global overview of the circadian clock as a critical interface between nutrition and homeostasis.
