In the present study, ingestion of the protein supplement before sleep was not compared with
other time points of ingestion.
As such, we can only speculate on the surplus benefit (s) of the protein supplement being provided before sleep as opposed to
other time points throughout the day.
As for the HARs that weren't active in brain cells during the study, the scientists think they could influence gene expression at
other time points during development, such as when the neuron is fully matured rather than while it's developing.
However, it must be kept in mind that we have not tested whether the observed sex - dependent effects of sleep loss on working memory during morning hours would also occur
at other time points of the day.
Something in the cell was inhibiting the trigger at
other time points, ensuring the right copy number of centrioles was formed at the right time,» says Zitouni Sihem, co-first author of this study.
The research team, in collaboration with scientists from Germany, USA, Japan and France, set out to investigate what was inhibiting this trigger protein at
other time points.
But believe it or not it was lower than
the other time points.»
Subsidiary measures and
other time points were included to describe the nature and pattern of change.
