Furthermore, we demonstrate in osteosarcoma cells that the period of the mammalian clock is also compensated across a wide range of extracellular glucose levels and adaptation of the clock to glucose-starved conditions depends on the RasGEF homolog SOS1 (Son of Sevenless 1) and its downstream signaling component ERK (Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase). This evidence concerns the gene CLOCK and osteosarcoma.
