Circadian clock in culture: N-acetyltransferase activity of chick pineal glands oscillates in vitro.

C A Kasal, M Menaker, J R Perez-Polo.   

Abstract

N-Acetyltransferase activity was measured in organ-cultured chick pineal glands. A circadian rhythm of enzyme activity persisted in cultured glands for up to 4 days. The phase of the rhythm in vitro closely approximates its phase in vivo. These observations demonstrate that the pineal gland of chicks contains (or is) a self-sustained circadian oscillator.
