Disruption in coordinated co-expression of clock genes, like Period genes mutations, is linked with the increased risk of lung, gastrointestinal, hematologic and gynecologic cancers. Several clock genes have been found to functionally interplay with regulators of the cell cycle. It is suggested that abnormal cell cycle function in cancer could also be a consequence of a disrupted biological clock. Chrono-disruption, being studied in different cancer entities, including the gynecologic cancer, could provide time set intervention in cancer therapeutics– chronotherapy in a 24 h–period.
