According to Bagamasbad and Ybañez’s study, KLF9 “suppresses the growth and spread of breast cancer cells.“Circadian disruption is an emerging driver of breast cancer, with epidemiological studies linking shift work and chronic jet lag to increased breast cancer risk,” said the researchers in their study.
This means that people like night shift workers and frequent international travelers who have an abnormal sleeping schedule may be more susceptible to breast cancer, according to Bagamasbad’s research work entitled “Krüppel-like factor 9 links hormone dysregulation and circadian disruption to breast cancer pathogenesis,”
She said that the discovery of the gene can help people better understand how cancer spreads in the body, as well as how to manage and treat it.RELATED STORIES:
