Both cluster headaches and migraines have strong connections to the circadian system, the internal clock that regulates body processes, according to a meta-analysis published March 29, 2023 in the online edition of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology. Cluster Headache More Severe in Women Cluster headache is a rare headache disorder, […]
Time-Restricted Eating Alters Gene Expression Throughout the Body
Numerous studies have shown the health benefits of a time-restricted diet, including an increase in lifespan. But how this exactly affects the body at the molecular level, and how these changes interact across multiple organ systems, is not yet fully understood. Salk scientists have been able to show in studies how time-restricted eating affects gene […]
Schizophrenia Increases the Risk of Dementia: The Role of the 12-Hour Rhythm
Schizophrenia and other related psychotic disorders are serious illnesses associated with symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions and social withdrawal. Many people also suffer from cognitive and functional impairments.

Biological Network in Cells and the Development of Diseases
There are more than 200 different cell types in the human body. Each cell is specialized to perform a specific function or form a specialized tissue. When cells don’t function properly, different diseases can occur. Scientists have now conducted research that opens up a whole new world inside our cells. Every minute of every day, […]
The Role of the Circadian Clock in Metabolic Diseases
Cells with a functioning molecular clock are better able to adapt to changes in glucose supply and recover more quickly from long-term starvation, according to a new study published in eLife. This discovery helps explain why changes in the body’s circadian rhythm, such as night shift work and jet lag, may increase the risk of […]
