Temperature changes have a variety of effects on physiological processes including the circadian clock that generates diurnal rhythms of sleep/wake behavior, hormone release, metabolism, and so on. Even in homeothermic mammals, body temperature fluctuates in a circadian manner that transmits the time information to peripheral tissues and cells. The body temperature rhythms cause cyclic activation of the transcription factor HSF1 and its targets such asHSPgenes and a clock genePer2, resulting in adjustment of the circadian oscillation in peripheral cells for synchronization. Loss of function of HSF1 therefore leads to reduced synchronization of the clock against temperature changes. HSF1 inhibition also slows down the speed of the clock oscillation and impairs the mechanism that maintains the oscillation speed constant under varying temperature. In the chick pineal gland, a photosensitive clock tissue, HSF andHSPgenes are activated by light pulse at a specific time of the day, suggesting a role of the HSF pathway in light-dependent synchronization of the circadian clock. Together, HSF has substantial roles in modulating the circadian clock function in response to environmental changes.
