Winding Biological Clock Shortens Cancer’s Meal Time

Cancer cells flout the circadian clock’s rigid rules, which limit the growth and proliferation of healthy cells. Apparently, cancer cells can jam or disengage the circadian machinery, putting time permanently out of joint. Setting cancer cells right, however, could be an effective therapeutic strategy, particularly since this appears to prevent cancer cells from processing nutrients around the clock.According to scientists based at the Salk Institute, targeting parts of the circadian clock
