Abstract

The paired suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) is the circadian pacemaker in mammals. Clock genes ultimately regulate a vast array of circadian rhythms involved in the biological, physiological, and behavioral process. The clock genes are closely related to sleep and cancer. The clock gene regulates many diseases such as cancer, immunological dysfunction, asthma, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic syndrome, and sleep disorders, etc. Dosing time influences the effectiveness and toxicity of many drugs. The pharmacodynamics of medications as well as pharmacokinetics influence chronopharmacological phenomena. Monitoring rhythm, overcoming rhythm disruption, and manipulating rhythm from the perspective of the clock genes play an important role in improving chronopharmacotherapy. Overall, clock genes are critical candidates for therapy associated with the immune system and autonomic nervous system, as shown by the accumulated data. Therefore, global collaboration among the academia, the hospital, the government, and the industry is essential to decrease the gap between drug discovery and development.
