Project description:Genes encoding the circadian pacemaker in the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) of mammals have recently been identified, but the molecubasis of circadian timing in peripheral tissue is not well understood. We used a bead-based microarray to identify mouse liver transcripts that show circadian cycles of abundance under constant conditions.

Project description:The hypothalamic suprachiasmatic (SCN) clock contains several neurochemically defined cell groups that contribute to the genesis of circadian rhythms. Using cell specific and genetically-targeted approaches we have confirmed an indispensable role for vasoactive intestinal polypeptide expressing SCN (SCNVIP) neurons in generating the mammalian locomotor activity (LMA) circadian rhythm. Optogenetic-assisted circuit mapping revealed functional, di-synaptic connectivity between SCNVIP neurons and dorsomedial hypothalamic neurons, providing a circuit substrate by which SCNVIP neurons may regulate LMA rhythms. In vivo photometry revealed that while SCNVIP neurons are acutely responsive to light, their activity is otherwise behavioral state invariant. Single-nuclei RNA-sequencing revealed SCNVIP neurons comprise two transcriptionally distinct subtypes, including putative pacemaker and non-pacemaker populations. Given that SCNVIP neurons constitute ~10% of the total SCN population, and that other cell groups were unable to sustain coherent circadian LMA rhythms following SCNVIP disruption, our findings demonstrate a disproportionately large influence of the SCNVIP cell population on pacemaker function.

Project description:Mice were fed a normal chow diet or a tryptophan depleted diet for two weeks under normal 12-hr light/dark cycles (LD) or in constant darkness (DD). Mice were sacrificed every 4th hour over the 24-hr circadian cycle. The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) was harvested and RNA was isolated using a standard TRIZOL protocol. The data suggest that dietary tryptophan is an important component of the diet regulating circadian homeostsis.

Project description:In mammals, the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is the master circadian pacemaker. It is primarily entrained by environmental photic stimuli. However, the molecular bases of the response of heterogeneous cells in the SCN to photic stimuli is not fully understood. In this study, we combined bulk RNA/ChIP/single nuclei sequencing with circadian behavioral assays to investigate cellular identities in the SCN and explore how they react to photic stimuli. We identified 3 major peptidergic cells in the SCN, Avp-expressing, Vip-expressing and Cck-expressing cells. In each peptidergic cell type, there is a light responsive cell cluster, and each of these is enriched for Neuronal PAS Domain Protein 4 (NPAS4) target genes. In addition, Npas4 null mice have a 1hr longer circadian period in constant darkness and a damped phase responsive curve to photic stimuli. Bulk RNA seq in Npas4-/- SCN revealed a reduced magnitude of light induced gene expression. Together, our data indicate that NPAS4 is part of the machinery that orchestrates the molecular response to photic stimuli in the SCN.

Project description:RNA editing is essential for the formation of functional properties of ionotropic glutamate channels. Previously, we demonstrated the regulation of RNA editing upon manipulation with neural activity in vitro. The hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN), which serve as a master circadian pacemaker depends on glutamatergic neurotransmission, in particular for signal transmission from the retina, and they exhibit spontaneous 24h rhythmical neural activity. We observed changes in the extent of ionotropic glutamate receptor RNA editing in the SCN during the 24h cycle. Therefore, we aimed to understand the overall role of RNA editing for the mechanism of SCN function and to evaluate the impact of RNA under editing on gene expression.

Project description:To screen for specific circadian outputs that may distinguish the pacemaker in the mammalian suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) from peripheral-type oscillators in which the canonical clockworks are similarly regulated in a circadian manner, the rhythmic behavior of the transcriptome in forskolin-stimulated NIH/3T3 fibroblasts was analyzed and compared to that found in the rat SCN in vivo and SCN2.2 cells in vitro. Similar to the scope of circadian gene expression in SCN2.2 cells and the rat SCN, NIH/3T3 fibroblasts exhibited circadian fluctuations in the expression of the core clock genes, Per2, Bmal1 (Mop3), and Cry1 and 323 functionally diverse transcripts (2.6%), many of which were involved in cell communication. Overlap in rhythmically-expressed transcripts among NIH/3T3 fibroblasts, SCN2.2 cells and the rat SCN was limited to these clock genes and four other genes that mediate fatty acid and lipid metabolism or function as nuclear factors. Compared to NIH/3T3 cells, circadian gene expression in SCN oscillators was more prevalent among cellular pathways mediating glucose metabolism and neurotransmission. Coupled with evidence for the rhythmic regulation of the inducible isoform of nitric oxide synthase, the enzyme responsible for the production of nitric oxide, in SCN2.2 cells and the rat SCN but not in fibroblasts, studies examining the effects of a NOS inhibitor on metabolic rhythms in co-cultures containing SCN2.2 cells and untreated NIH/3T3 cells suggest that this gaseous neurotransmitter may play a key role in SCN pacemaker function. Thus, this comparative analysis of circadian gene expression in SCN and non-SCN cells may have important implications in the selective identification of circadian signals involved in the coupling of SCN oscillators and the regulation of rhythmicity in downstream cells or tissues. Experiment Overall Design: Circadian profiling of the NIH/3T3 fibroblast transcriptome entailed the treatment of NIH/3T3 cells with a 15uM forskolin pulse, subsequent washout of the drug, and collection of total RNA immediately after washout and every 6 hours across two circadian cycles for each of three experiments. Timepoint values reflect the average of three samples from these biological replicates.

Project description:Mammals rely on a network of circadian clocks to control daily systemic metabolism and physiology. The central pacemaker in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is considered hierarchically dominant over peripheral clocks, whose degree of independence, or tissue-level autonomy, has never been ascertained in vivo. Using arrhythmic Bmal1-null mice, we generated animals with reconstituted circadian expression of BMAL1 exclusively in the liver (Liver-RE). High-throughput transcriptomics and metabolomics show that the liver has independent circadian functions specific for metabolic processes such as the NAD+ salvage pathway and glycogen turnover. However, although BMAL1 occupies chromatin at most genomic targets in Liver-RE mice, circadian expression is restricted to ∼10% of normally rhythmic transcripts. Finally, rhythmic clock gene expression is lost in Liver-RE mice under constant darkness. Hence, full circadian function in the liver depends on signals emanating from other clocks, and light contributes to tissue-autonomous clock function.

Project description:The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) acts as the central clock to coordinate circadian oscillations in mammalian behavior, physiology and gene expression. Despite our knowledge of the circadian transcriptome of the SCN, how it impacts genome-wide protein expression is not well understood. Here, we interrogated the murine SCN proteome across the circadian cycle using SILAC-based quantitative mass spectrometry.

Project description:Background: Identifying the gene regulatory networks governing physiological signal integration remains an important challenge in circadian biology. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) has been implicated in circadian function and EGFR is expressed in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), the core circadian pacemaker. The transcription networks downstream of EGFR in the SCN are unknown, but by analogy to other SCN inputs we expect the response to EGFR activation to depend on circadian timing and thus be “circadian context–dependent”. Results: We have undertaken a systems level analysis of EGFR circadian context–dependent signaling in the SCN. We collected gene expression profiles to study how the SCN response to EGFR activation depends on circadian timing. Mixed–model analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed to identify genes with circadian context–dependent EGFR regulation. The expression data was integrated with transcription factor (TF) binding predictions through gene group enrichment analyses to generate robust hypotheses about TFs responsible for the circadian phase–dependent EGFR responses. Conclusions: The analysis results suggest that the transcriptional response to EGFR signaling in the SCN may be partly mediated by established EGFR signaling regulated TFs (AP1, Ets1), TFs involved in circadian clock entrainment (CREB), and by core clock TFs (Rorα). qRT-PCR measurements of several TF expression levels support a model in which circadian context-dependent EGFR responses are partly achieved by circadian regulation of upstream signaling components. Our study suggests an important role for EGFR signaling in SCN function and provides an example for gaining physiological insights through systems-level analysis.
