Researchers discover muscle cells have internal clocks affecting growth, suggesting shift work may accelerate aging.
Researchers from King's College London found that muscle cells have their own circadian clocks, regulating protein turnover and impacting muscle growth and function.
Disrupting these clocks, common in shift workers, can accelerate aging by increasing the accumulation of defective proteins.
Studying zebrafish, the team observed signs of premature aging, including reduced muscle function.
This research may lead to treatments for muscle decline in shift workers.
