Abstract
Circadian disruptions are associated with various diseases, including cancer.
- Perturbations in circadian rhythms may affect energy balance and lead to changes in the cell cycle.
- Disruption of the circadian clock is linked to dysregulation of chromatin remodeling.
- A mechanistic understanding of how circadian disruption enhances cancer risk remains limited.
- The review discusses the role of the circadian clock in tumor development and the mechanisms involved.
- Advances in chronotherapy for cancer treatment are highlighted.
