July 15, 2022
Vandenberghe, A.; Lefranc, M.; Furlan, A. An Overview of the Circadian Clock in the Frame of Chronotherapy: From Bench to Bedside. Pharmaceutics 2022, 14, 1424. https://doi.org/10.3390/pharmaceutics14071424 Abstract Most living organisms in both the plant and animal kingdoms have evolved processes to stay in tune with the alternation of day and night, and to optimize their physiology as a...

Chronodentistry: the role & potential of molecular clocks in oral medicine

March 24, 2021
Janjić, K., Agis, H. Chronodentistry: the role & potential of molecular clocks in oral medicine. BMC Oral Health 19, 32 (2019). https://doi.org/10.1186/s12903-019-0720-x Abstract Molecular clocks help organisms to adapt important physiological functions to periodically changing conditions in the environment. These include the adaption of the 24 h sleep-wake rhythm to changes of day and night. The circadian clock is...

An Unexpected, & Novel, Target for Prostate Cancer – Our Biological Clock

January 24, 2021
Thomas Jefferson University 01.15.21 Researchers find that CRY-1, a regulator of circadian rhythms, promotes tumor progression by altering DNA repair. PHILADELPHIA – Our biological or circadian clock synchronizes all our bodily processes to the natural rhythms of light and dark. It’s no wonder then that disrupting the clock can wreak havoc on our body. In fact, studies...
