How the Body’s Internal Clock May Affect Cancer Treatment

Circadian Biology Weekly Brief ↗PubMed ↗DOI ↗

Updated

Abstract

Chronotherapy is linked to biological rhythms in cancer treatment.

  • Circadian rhythms play a significant role in cancer physiology and treatment.
  • Mutations in clock genes are associated with cancer development.
  • Disruptions in biological clocks may contribute to cancer progression.
  • Novel chronotherapeutic approaches are being explored for cancer management.
