Abnormal feeding behavior is one of the main symptoms of Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS). By studying a PWS mouse mutant line, which carries a paternally inherited deletion of the small nucleolar RNA 116 (Snord116), we observed significant changes in w...

The Zfhx3-Mediated Axis Regulates Sleep and Interval Timing in Mice (2016)
Journal Article
Balzani, E., Lassi, G., Maggi, S., Sethi, S., Parsons, M., Simon, M., …Tucci, V. (2016). The Zfhx3-Mediated Axis Regulates Sleep and Interval Timing in Mice. Cell Reports, 16(3), 615-621. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.celrep.2016.06.017

An AT motif-dependent axis, modulated by the transcription factor Zfhx3, influences the circadian clock in mice. In particular, gain of function of Zfhx3 significantly shortens circadian rhythms and alters the transcriptional activity of an important...
