Skeletal muscle comprises approximately 50% of individual body mass and plays vital roles in locomotion, heat production, and whole body metabolic homeostasis. This tissue exhibits a robust diurnal rhythm that is under control of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) region of the hypothalamus. The SCN acts as a "central" coordinator of circadian rhythms, while cell-autonomous "peripheral" clocks are located within almost all other tissues/organs in the body. Synchronization of the peripheral clocks in muscles (and other tissues) together with the central clock is crucial to ensure temporally coordinated physiology across all organ systems. By virtue of its mass, human skeletal muscle contains the largest collection of peripheral clocks, but within muscle resides a local stem cell population, satellite cells (SCs), which have their own functional molecular clock, independent of the numerous muscle clocks. Skeletal muscle has a daily turnover rate of 1%-2%, so the regenerative capacity of this tissue is important for whole body homeostasis/repair and depends on successful SC myogenic progression (i.e., proliferation, differentiation, and fusion). Emerging evidence suggests that SC-mediated muscle regeneration may, in part, be regulated by molecular clocks involved in SC-specific diurnal transcription. Here we provide insights on molecular clock regulation of muscle regeneration/repair and provide a novel perspective on the interplay between SC-specific molecular clocks, myogenic programs, and cell cycle kinetics that underpin myogenic progression.
