The circadian rhythm is regulated by an intrinsic time-tracking system, composed both of a central and peripheral clock, which influences the cycles activities sleep individual over 24 h. At molecular level, begins when two basic helix-loop-helix/Per-ARNT-SIM (bHLH-PAS) proteins, BMAL-1 CLOCK, interact with each other to produce BMAL-1/CLOCK heterodimers in cytoplasm. target genes encode for repressor components cryptochrome (Cry1 Cry2) Period proteins (Per1, Per2 Per3). It has been recently demonstrated that disruption associated increased risk developing obesity obesity-related diseases. In addition, it plays key role tumorigenesis.

Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common and fatal malignancies among women worldwide. Circadian rhythms have emerged in recent studies as being involved pathogenesis breast cancer. In this paper, we reviewed molecular mechanisms by which dysregulation circadian genes impacts development BC, focusing on critical clock genes, brain muscle ARNT-like protein 1 (BMAL1) locomotor output cycles kaput (CLOCK). We discussed how rhythm disruption (CRD) changes tumor microenvironment (TME), immune responses, inflammation, angiogenesis. The CRD compromises surveillance features activities effectors, including CD8+ T cells tumor-associated macrophages, that are important an effective anti-tumor response. Meanwhile, review, discuss bidirectional interactions: age rhythms, aging further increases risk through reduced vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), affecting suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) synchronization, ability to repair damaged DNA, weakened immunity. These complex interplays open new avenues toward targeted therapies combination drugs with chronotherapy potentiate response while reducing progression for better outcomes.

PURPOSE Chronoradiobiology has emerged as a potential field of study with therapeutic implications for cancer treatment. We aimed to investigate the association between radiation chronotherapy and efficacy toxicity patients nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients nonmetastatic NPC treated intensity-modulated radiotherapy in Fujian Cancer Hospital January 2017 December 2019 were included. Propensity score matching (PSM) 1:1:1 was used account selection bias. Cox regression analysis performed explore impact timing on patient survival. Sensitivity implemented determine size directional stability. RESULTS One thousand forty met inclusion criteria 332 included PSM cohort. In unmatched cohort analysis, morning exhibited significantly superior overall survival (OS) outcome (hazard ratio [HR], 0.60 [95% CI, 0.40 0.91], adjusted log-rank P = .028) than afternoon one. After it observed that individuals undergoing group (HR, 5.88 2.55 13.58], .004) night 4.81 1.91 12.11], .018) displayed tendency toward shorter OS compared group. No significant differences acute treatment-related adverse effects among three groups. Morning demonstrated consistent robustness multivariable thereby establishing an higher OS. The directionality effect across sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSION These results underscore benefits scheduling management, although prospective studies are needed confirm these findings.

Cancer is a major public health, societal, and economic challenge worldwide. According to Global Statistics 2022, it estimated that by 2050, there will be 35 million new cancer cases globally. Although patient survival rates have improved through various therapeutic approaches, including surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, treatment efficacy remains limited once tumor metastasis occurs. Among strategies, radiotherapy plays crucial role. Along with surgery cost-effective single-modality treatment, accounting for approximately 5% of total care costs. The use radiosensitizing agents such as histone deacetylase inhibitors, 2-deoxy-d-glucose, enterolactone, squalene epoxidase can enhance effectiveness. Recent radiosensitization methods involve physical stimuli chemical radiosensitizers. However, improving their efficacy, durability, overcoming radioresistance remain significant challenges. This review first introduces current applications in the molecular mechanisms underlying its anticancer effects, side effects. Second, discusses main types radiosensitizers, latest applications, recent challenges treatment. Finally, emphasizes on clinical trials explores potential biomarkers response cancer. Multifunctional nanoparticles shown greater applicability than single-functional nanoparticles. Future research focus enhancing drug-carrying capacity nanomaterials further improve outcomes.
