Researchers at the University of Southern California and Nagoya University in Japan have jointly developed a new drug that can inhibit cancer cell growth by destroying the cancer cell's biological clock.

It is well known that disturbing the rhythm of the biological clock can damage human health, as is the biological clock of cells. If it can disturb the biological clock of cancer cells, it can theoretically damage or destroy these cancer cells.

The research team reported in a new issue of the journal Science Progress that they conducted research on cancer cells in human kidney cancer and mouse acute myeloid leukemia. It was found that a molecule called GO289 can slow down its growth cycle by blocking the circadian clock of cancer cells, while having little effect on healthy cells.

The researchers say that GO289 drugs interact with an enzyme that controls the cell circadian clock, which disrupts the function of four other proteins that are critical for cell growth and survival.

Steve Kay, director of the University of Southern California's Michaelson Convergence Bioscience Center, said that in some cancers, disease controls the circadian clock and stimulates cancer cell growth, and GO289 can interfere with these processes and prevent the development of cancer. "It may become an effective new weapon to eliminate cancer."
