Mother helps set fetal biological clock

Researchers found that a mother sends timing signals to her fetuses so their circadian clocks match her day–night cycle. The finding comes from a study that tracked clock protein activity in pregnant mice and links timing to maternal hormones.

Clock disruption speeds breast cancer in models

New research finds that repeating disruption of the body’s 24-hour clock changes breast tissue, weakens immune defenses and leads to faster, more aggressive breast cancer in experimental models. The study links altered light–dark schedules to worse outcomes.

Hub cells in the brain keep the body clock on time

Researchers used a new computational method called MITE to map how cells in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) talk to each other. They found a small group of hub cells that are essential for network synchrony and for the body clock.
