Genetic Patterns and Drug Interactions of Body Clock Genes in Cancer Time-Based Treatment

Alterations of clock genes across 32 cancer types are associated with key oncogenic pathways and patient outcomes.

• Expression changes in clock genes may relate to tumor stage and subtype in various cancers.
• Correlations between clock gene expression and other genes differ between cancerous and normal tissues.
• Interactions between clock genes and clinically actionable genes were identified through multiple analytical approaches.
• Clock gene expression could influence sensitivity to anti-cancer drugs in cancer cell lines.
