G1/S cell cycle regulators mediate effects of circadian dysregulation on tumor growth and provide targets for timed anticancer treatment

January 7, 2022
Citation: Lee Y, Lahens NF, Zhang S, Bedont J, Field JM, Sehgal A (2019) G1/S cell cycle regulators mediate effects of circadian dysregulation on tumor growth and provide targets for timed anticancer treatment. PLoS Biol 17(4): e3000228. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pbio.3000228 Abstract Circadian disruption has multiple pathological consequences, but the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. To address such mechanisms,...

Communicating clocks shape circadian homeostasis

October 7, 2021
Koronowski KB, Sassone-Corsi P. Communicating clocks shape circadian homeostasis. Science. 2021;371(6530):eabd0951. doi:10.1126/science.abd0951 The publisher’s final edited version of this article is available at Science Abstract Circadian clocks temporally coordinate physiology and align it with geophysical time, enabling diverse lifeforms to anticipate daily environmental cycles. In complex organisms, clock function originates from the molecular oscillator within each cell...
