A new study reports on a link between circadian cell disruption and cancerous tumor growth.
Researchers in China successfully used CRISPR gene editing to produce five monkey clones from the fibroblasts of a donor monkey with disease phenotypes.
A mutation in a gene associated with circadian rhythm extends the clock period, causing people to stay up late at night and sleep late in the mornings.
Researchers discover the expression of certain clock genes plays a critical role in delaying the emergence of age-related signs in the brain.
A new study reports that disrupting the natural circadian rhythm in mice causes depression and anxiety.
A new study reveals we are more susceptible to infections at certain times of the day as our circadian rhythm affects the ability of the virus to spread and replicate.
A new study provides fresh insight into how local circadian clocks can control sleep and wakefulness.
Researchers report deleting the Bmal1 gene prior to birth accelerates aging and shortens lifespan in mice.
A new study reveals how the production of p75NTR protein oscillates in time with the body's natural circadian rhythm and how these oscillations help regulate vital metabolic functions. The findings offer an insight into how circadian rhythm helps maintain the body's overall metabolic health.
Skin and liver cells appear to have their own circadian clock. Both the liver and skin respond to changes in light and maintain critical function, independent of the brain's circadian rhythm.
According to researchers, changes in the abundance of gut bacteria in female mice is tied to the rhythms of the internal clock.
A new study sheds light on how the circadian clock controls inflammatory response. By understanding the link between inflammation and circadian rhythm, researchers believe it may be most effective to target specific conditions at certain times of the day. The findings may also explain why those who experience body clock disruptions are more susceptible to inflammatory conditions.
