title: Circadian biology: fibroblast clocks keep ticking.
abstract: Real-time cellular imaging of gene expression has revealed that fibroblasts contain a robust, self-sustained and cell-autonomous circadian oscillator, with a range of properties that both overlap and contrast with those of the neural clock of the suprachiasmatic nuclei.
