Research progress of biological clock in regulation of tumor development

Abstract

Abstract: Biological clock is a physiological controlling system with self-regulating functions. There is a close relationship between biological clock disorders and the occurrence of tumors, but underlying mechanism has not yet been elucidated. The biological clocks affect the tumorigenesis through cell cycle, proliferation and gene mutations. Exploring the possible mechanism between biological clock and tumorigenesis can provide some potential strategies for tumor treatment and intervention.

Key words: biological clock, tumor, mechanism
