Chronobiology Rhythm of Life
Each cell in our body follows its own specific inner rhythm.
Activity and regeneration, reaction and rest follow each other. External and internal time givers control our physical, mental and emotional functions. It is therefore evident that the effect of medicines also varies throughout the day.
Chronotherapy investigates the effect of therapeutic measures in harmony with our inner clock.
This knowledge is infinitely valuable for the committed doctor. It can help avoid doing the right thing at the wrong time. Chronotherapy can be the decisive factor in supporting the body exactly at a time the assistance achieves a maximum effect. Thus, efficacy is increased and undesirable disturbing side effects are reduced.

Researchers Succeed for the First Time in Transferring a Longevity Gene With an Influence on Lifespan
Naked mole rats may not look particularly handsome, but their biology has made them one of the most fascinating animals in aging research. These small, wrinkled rodents can live for decades, rarely develop cancer and appear to be unusually well protected from many diseases normally associated with old age. Researchers at the University of Rochester…

Intravenous Biomaterial Could Heal Injured Tissue From the Inside
A biomaterial designed to travel through the bloodstream could offer a less invasive way to relieve inflammation and support the self-healing of injured tissue. In animal studies, the injectable material improved tissue damage caused by heart attacks in both rodents and large animals. Initial proof-of-concept experiments also suggested that the same approach could one day…

Instead of just releasing fat, it helps to maintain healthy adipose tissue and balance in the body. If it is missing or its function is disrupted, this can have surprisingly harmful consequences. This finding changes the way researchers…
