Next Generation Sequencing Study of Circadian Changes in Transcriptome of Human Pineal Gland


ABSTRACT: Purpose: We performed an NGS study on the circadian changes in human pineal gland transcriptome in order to elucidate novel and conserved elements in the circadian clock, as well as to conduct a comparative analysis of pineal transcriptomes of several animal species. Methods: Total RNA from human pineal glands of individuals that died at 2 timepoints (Mid-Day, Midnight) was deep sequenced, using Illumina HiSeq2500. Reads were aligned using STAR aligner and differential expression was asssessed using DESeq2. Results: We discover a variety of genes that show circadian activivty in human pineal gland. Conclusions: Our study represents part of a comparative analysis of pineal gland transcriptome of several species, generated by RNA-seq technology. The optimized data analysis workflows reported here should provide a framework for comparative investigations of expression profiles. Our results show that NGS offers a comprehensive and more accurate quantitative and qualitative evaluation of mRNA content within a cell or tissue. We conclude that RNA-seq based transcriptome characterization would expedite genetic network analyses and permit the dissection of complex biologic functions.
