Now, groundbreaking new research is shaking up our understanding of human longevity, suggesting that despite our medical and technological advances, there may be a hard, biological ceiling to how long ...

Scientists have figured out how disrupted cellular circadian rhythms lead to liver cancer and have found that by inhibiting key “clock” proteins, they can stop it from growing. In a study published ...

In a new study, researchers define how the circadian clock influences cell growth, metabolism and tumor progression. Their research also reveals how disruption of the circadian clock impacts genome ...

To better understand the circadian clock in modern-day cyanobacteria, a research team has studied ancient timekeeping systems. They examined the oscillation of the clock proteins KaiA, KaiB, and KaiC ...
