The circadian rhythm, which regulates various body functions, is transcriptionally controlled by a series of clock gene clusters. The clock genes are related to the pathology of various kinds of diseases, which in turn, is related to aging. Aging in humans is a worldwide problem; it induces sleep disorders and disruption of the circadian rhythm. It also decreases ocular vision and appetite and weakens the synchronization of clock genes by light and food. Therefore, a simple method for the synchronization of clock genes in the body is required. In this study, the influence of microcurrent stimulation (MCS) on the circadian machinery in wild-type (WT) andClockmutant (Clk/Clk) mice was investigated. MCS inducedPer1mRNA expression in cultured mouse astrocytes; cAMP response element (CRE) in thePer1mouse promoter was found to be important for the induction ofPer1mRNA. In addition, MCS increased thePer1mRNA levels in mouse livers and caused the phase advance of thePer1expression rhythm. The protein expression rhythm of phosphor-cAMP response element-binding protein (pCREB) was altered and the phase of expression of pCREB protein advanced. Finally, the influence of MCS on the locomotor activity rhythm in WT andClk/Clkmice was investigated. MCS caused the phase advance of the locomotor activity rhythm in WT andClk/Clkmice. The results of this study indicate that MCS activated the clock machinery in mice; MCS may thus improve the quality of new treatment modalities in the future.
