Camera data from food deprived animals.

Tissue	n	% Rhythmic	Period (hours)	Phase (hours after cull)	Rate of Damping (days)
DMH (whole)	7	100	21.8 ± 0.4	30.2 ± 4.5	2.3 ± 0.5
DMH (single cells)	61	83.8	22.5 ± 0.6	34.6 ± 2.1	†
Arc (whole)	7	100	22.3 ± 0.4	30.7 ± 2.4	4.1 ± 0.4
Arc (single cells)	88	90.0	22.3 ± 0.2	33.6 ± 2.0	†
Ependymal	7	71.4	22.3 ± 0.5	30.4 ± 1.3	4.1 ± 1.4
ME/PT	6	85.7	21.8 ± 0.3	42.4 ± 2.3*	5.7 ± 1.0

Comparisons of amplitude between slices were not possible since more than one type of camera system was used.

* p < 0.001 vs control animals (cf Table 1)

† not all single cells had damped completely by the end of imaging.
