Scientists discover mechanism to reset body clock
Manchester University researchers have found that the body clock could be ‘reset’ with a pill, which could cure jet lag and ease the strain of working nights.
The scientists have found an enzyme that keeps the body operating on a normal 24 hour circadian rhythm.Their tests on specially bred mice revealed an enzyme, which controls how the body’s clock can be reset. Drug companies are using the discovery to develop a pill to ease the impact of sleep deprivation, jet lag and changes to daily routine.
Dr David Bechtold, who led the research, reportedly said that a treatment could even be ready within five or ten years. The research is published in Current Biology.
