Circadian rhythm is an endogenous biological clock mechanism that enables organisms to adapt to the earth’s alternation of day and night. It plays a fundamental role in regulating physiological functions and behavioral patterns, such as sleep, feeding, hormone levels and body temperature. By aligning these processes with environmental changes, circadian rhythm plays a pivotal role in maintaining homeostasis and promoting optimal health. However, modern lifestyles, characterized by irregular work schedules and pervasive exposure to artificial light, have disrupted these rhythms for many individuals. Such disruptions have been linked to a variety of health problems, including sleep disorders, metabolic syndromes, cardiovascular diseases, and immune dysfunction, underscoring the critical role of circadian rhythm in human health. Among the numerous systems influenced by circadian rhythm, the skin—a multifunctional organ and the largest by surface area—is particularly noteworthy. As the body’s first line of defense against environmental insults such as UV radiation, pollutants, and pathogens, the skin is highly affected by changes in circadian rhythm. Circadian rhythm regulates multiple skin-related processes, including cyclic changes in cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, as well as DNA repair mechanisms and antioxidant defenses. For instance, studies have shown that keratinocyte proliferation peaks during the night, coinciding with reduced environmental stress, while DNA repair mechanisms are most active during the day to counteract UV-induced damage. This temporal coordination highlights the critical role of circadian rhythms in preserving skin integrity and function. Beyond maintaining homeostasis, circadian rhythm is also pivotal in the skin’s repair and regeneration processes following injury. Skin regeneration is a complex, multi-stage process involving hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling, all of which are influenced by circadian regulation. Key cellular activities, such as fibroblast migration, keratinocyte activation, and extracellular matrix remodeling, are modulated by the circadian clock, ensuring that repair processes occur with optimal efficiency. Additionally, circadian rhythm regulates the secretion of cytokines and growth factors, which are critical for coordinating cellular communication and orchestrating tissue regeneration. Disruptions to these rhythms can impair the repair process, leading to delayed wound healing, increased scarring, or chronic inflammatory conditions. The aim of this review is to synthesize recent information on the interactions between circadian rhythms and skin physiology, with a particular focus on skin tissue repair and regeneration. Molecular mechanisms of circadian regulation in skin cells, including the role of core clock genes such as Clock, Bmal1, Per and Cry. These genes control the expression of downstream effectors involved in cell cycle regulation, DNA repair, oxidative stress response and inflammatory pathways. By understanding how these mechanisms operate in healthy and diseased states, we can discover new insights into the temporal dynamics of skin regeneration. In addition, by exploring the therapeutic potential of circadian biology in enhancing skin repair and regeneration, strategies such as topical medications that can be applied in a time-limited manner, phototherapy that is synchronized with circadian rhythms, and pharmacological modulation of clock genes are expected to optimize clinical outcomes. Interventions based on the skin’s natural rhythms can provide a personalized and efficient approach to promote skin regeneration and recovery. This review not only introduces the important role of circadian rhythms in skin biology, but also provides a new idea for future innovative therapies and regenerative medicine based on circadian rhythms.

Objective:To investigate the neuroprotective effect of nicotinamide riboside(NR)on experimental autoimmune en-cephalomyelitis(EAE)mice.Methods:C57BL/6 female mice were induced by myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein(MOG35-55)to pro-duce EAE model and were randomly divided into EAE group and NR group.From day 3 to day 27 after immunization,each mouse in EAE group was given normal saline(200 μl/d)and each mouse in NR group was given NR(500 mg/kg,200 μl/d)by intragastric administration.Clinical score and body weight of mice in EAE group and NR group were recorded every day.On the 28th day after immunization,the spinal cord protein of mice in each group was extracted and the frozen sections of spinal cord of mice in each group were prepared.LFB staining was used to detect demyelination,immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the expression of MAP-2 and the number of positive cells of NeuN,BDNF,GDNF,NGF and NT-3,and Western blot was used to detect the expressions of BDNF,GDNF,NGF and NT-3 of spinal cord.Results:Compared with EAE group,NR significantly delayed the onset time of EAE mice(P<0.05),decreased clinical score(P<0.05),reduced weight loss,alleviated spinal cord demyelination(P<0.05),increased the expression of MAP-2(P<0.01)and the number of NeuN positive cells(P<0.01),and up-regulated the expressions of BDNF,GDNF,NGF and NT-3(P<0.05).Conclusion:NR shows a good neuroprotective effect on EAE mice.The mechanism may be related to NR significantly increasing the expression of spinal neurotrophic factors,improving the microenvironment of the central nervous sys-tem,nourishing nerves,promoting nerve repair and nerve growth,etc.

Objective:To examine the influence of physical function status on supportive care needs (SCNS) in patients with primary liver cancer (PLC) and to explore the mediating roles of perceived social support and anxiety-depression, with the aim of providing evidence for nursing interventions to improve patients' care experience.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select PLC inpatients admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University between December 2022 and February 2024. Data were collected using a general information questionnaire, the 34-item Supportive Care Needs Survey-Short Form, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, the Perceived Social Support Scale, and the Karnofsky Performance Status Scale to conduct a cross-sectional survey. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to examine associations among SCNS, perceived social support, anxiety-depression, and physical function status. Structural equation modeling was used to assess the mediating effects of perceived social support and anxiety-depression on the relationship between physical function status and SCNS.Results:A total of 304 patients were enrolled, including 260 males and 44 females, 31 cases aged 18-40 years old, 160 cases aged 41 to 60 years old, and 113 cases over 60 years old. The mean total SCNS score was (98.32 ± 21.75) points, the mean anxiety-depression score was (23.31 ± 9.64) points, the mean perceived social support score was (56.62 ± 13.05) points, and the mean physical function status score was (66.28 ± 12.31) points. Pearson correlation analysis showed that physical function status was negatively correlated with SCNS and anxiety-depression ( r =-0.509, -0.447; both P<0.05) and positively correlated with perceived social support ( r =0.439, P<0.05). Physical function status had a direct effect of 60.74% on SCNS, with specific mediating effects of perceived social support and anxiety-depression accounting for 23.15% and 11.85%, respectively, and a chain mediating effect of 4.26%. Conclusions:Patients with PLC exhibited a moderately high level of supportive care needs. Physical function status not only exerted a direct negative effect on SCNS but also indirectly influenced SCNS through the chain mediation of perceived social support and anxiety-depression. Clinical medical staff should focus on enhancing patients' perception of social support and effectively alleviating anxiety and depressive symptoms, thereby reducing supportive care needs to some extent.
