Abstract:
Developments of chronobiology abroad are forging ahead in elucidating the cellular and molecular basis and the influential factors of circadian clock such as light, jet lag, pharmaceutical. This article also reviews the influence of circadian system on human physiology and disease occurrence. The circadian-based therapy holds promising future and the research emphasis is on prognosis and prevention.
