Light-cycle time-restricted feeding disrupts daily cardiovascular and thermoregulatory rhythms, but the molecular effects of light-cycle time-restricted feeding on the heart have been measured only at the level of total gene expression. We used Oxford Nanopore long-read RNA sequencing to resolve the full-length ventricular transcriptome from male and female mice under ad libitum feeding or light-cycle time-restricted feeding across the 24-hour cycle. Greater than 20% of cardiac transcripts represent unannotated variants of known genes absent from the current GENCODE reference annotation. Light-cycle time-restricted feeding reorganizes transcript usage across hundreds of genes, including genes encoding splicing regulators, largely without changing total gene expression. The genes affected are sex-specific, with fewer than 2% of changes shared at the gene, transcript, and transcript-usage levels. We show that transcript-level regulation is a previously underrecognized component of the cardiac response to altered feeding behavior, undetected by conventional short-read approaches.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
