Wild–type (Cry1,2+/+/Vipr2+/+) PER2::LUC transgenic mice on the C57BL/6J background were used as control. For the measurement of PER2::LUC bioluminescence from a cultured SCN slice, mice of 8–16 weeks or 2–5 days old, kept under LD condition, were euthanized between 8:00 and 16:00 by cervical dislocation and decapitated. The brain was rapidly removed and a coronal SCN slice of 150 ?m or 200 ?m was made. In the co–culture experiment, the SCN slices of 150 ?m thick were obtained from adult mice carrying the PER2::LUC reporter (recipient). The slice was pre-cultured for 3 or 4 days, and then co–cultured with an SCN slice from mice without the re2018-11-18T13:27:26Z2023-03-10T17:22:09.845Z2018-11-15T07:37:34ZS-BSST212
