The underlying neurobiology of substance use disorders (SUDs) is closely entangled with that of both circadian rhythms and redox metabolism. Drugs of abuse, like cocaine, disrupt circadian rhythms and redox homeostasis, and in turn, disruption in either of these areas influences drug-related behaviors (Hasler et al., 2012; Uys et al., 2014). While the relationship between SUDs and these two systems have been investigated independently, the studies by Becker-Krail and colleagues (2021) in this issue of the European Journal of Neuroscience are among few examining how direct molecular interactions between circadian and metabolic systems may regulate drug-related behaviors.It has been clear for some time that the transcription factor Neuronal PAS Domain 2 (NPAS2) and Circadian Locomotor Output Cycles Kaput (CLOCK) are homologs, and thus, somewhat interchangeable—though, of the two, NPAS2 generally takes the back seat. In mammals, both CLOCK and NPAS2 drive the rhythmic transcription of circadian genes, including Period, which in turn inhibit their own transcription in a negative feedback loop, forming the basis of the circadian clock (reviewed in Lowrey & Takahashi, 2004). While NPAS2’s role was not originally recognized in the suprachiasmatic nucleus, the “master regulator” of circadian rhythmicity where CLOCK is predominant, later studies showed its presence and ability to, at least partially, stand-in for CLOCK in this brain region, as well.
