Glaucoma Inducing Retinal Ganglion Cell Degeneration Alters Diurnal Rhythm of Key Molecular Components of the Central Clock and Locomotor Activity in Mice

ABSTRACT: Glaucoma is a chronic optic neuropathy characterized by the progressive de- generation of retinal ganglion cells (RGC). These cells play a crucial role in transmitting visual and non-visual information to brain regions, including the su- prachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), responsible for synchronizing biological rhythms. To understand how glaucoma affects circadian rhythm synchronization, we in- vestigated potential changes in the molecular clock machinery in the SCN. We found that the progressive increase in intraocular pressure (IOP) negatively correlated with spontaneous locomotor activity (SLA). Transcriptome analy- sis revealed significant alterations in the SCN of glaucomatous mice, including downregulation of genes associated with circadian rhythms. In fact, we showed a loss of diurnal oscillation in the expression of vasoactive intestinal peptide (Vip), its receptor (Vipr2), and period 1 (Per1) in the SCN of glaucomatous mice. These findings were supported by the 7-h phase shift in the peak expression of arginine vasopressin (Avp) in the SCN of mice with glaucoma. Despite maintaining a 24-h period under both light/dark (LD) and constant dark (DD) conditions, glaucoma- tous mice exhibited altered SLA rhythms, characterized by decreased amplitude. Taken altogether, our findings provide evidence of how glaucoma affects the regulation of the central circadian clock and its consequence on the regulation of circadian rhythms.

Timed Exercise and Clocks: Does a Minimally Functional Suprachiasmatic Clock Support 24h Behavioral Rhythms?

Project description:The brain’s suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is the master clock driving circadian rhythms in mammals. Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) and its cognate receptor, VPAC2, are expressed in SCN neurons and mice with genetically targeted deletion of VPAC2 (Vipr2 -/-animals) show aberrant resetting to light, abnormal behavioral rhythms, and diminished SCN clock gene expression. Timed daily access to a running-wheel (scheduled voluntary exercise; SVE) promotes Vipr2 -/- SCN clock cell synchrony and 24h behavioral rhythms. We hypothesized that timed exercise alters the SCN transcriptome. Here, in control (Vipr2+/+) and Vipr2-/- mice under freely exercising and SVE conditions, RNAseq and qRT-PCR were used to measured gene expression of laser-dissected SCN. Compared to Vipr2+/+ mice, hundreds of genes were differentially expressed in the SCN from Vipr2-/- mice rhythmic in the freely exercising condition. Unexpectedly, SVE did not promote a Vipr2+/+-like SCN transcriptome in Vipr2-/- mice and many transcripts involved in SCN function including Avp, C1ql3, Gpr176, Prok2, Sst, Per2, and Nr1d1 remained dysregulated in the SVE condition. By contrast, circadian oscillators in the liver and lung were mostly intact in Vipr2-/- mice. This study indicates that marked molecular deficits in the SCN are sustained in behaviorally rhythmic Vipr2-/- mice, raising the possibility that a minimal functional SCN circadian clock can underpin whole animal rhythms.

The Autonomous Hepatocyte Clock Controls Acetaminophen Bioactivation and Chronotoxicity [Kidney]

Project description:The diurnal variation in acetaminophen (APAP) hepatotoxicity (“chronotoxicity”) is thought to be due to oscillations in xenobiotic metabolism that are influenced by the circadian phases of feeding or fasting. Because of APAP’s relevance to human poisoning, we set out to determine the relative contributions of the central clock in the SCN and the autonomous clock in the hepatocyte in modulating the chronotoxicity of APAP. Using a conditional null allele of Mop3 (ArntL, Bmal1) we are able to delete the clock from hepatocytes while keeping the central and other peripheral clocks intact (eg, those controlling food intake). Our data from this hepatocyte-null mouse model suggests that, while the central circadian clock modulates some detoxification pathways indirectly by driving activity patterns and feeding rhythms, the autonomous hepatocyte circadian clock controls major aspects of APAP bioactivation independent of feeding rhythms, possibly through transcriptional regulation of cytochrome p450-oxidoreductase (Por). 10-20 week old Mop3fxfx mice positive or negative for Cre-recombinase driven by the albumin promoter, housed in 12 hour light:12 dark, ad lib feeding and drinking conditions were sacrificed every four hours over two separte days beginning at ZT0. A two color, reference design experiment in which kidney RNA from at least 3 mice per timepoint were pooled and labeled with Cy3 and hybridized according to Agilent protocols against a reference pool of RNA madeup from respective tissue taken from 10 week Mop3fxfx and Mop3fxfxCreAlb mice which was labeled with Cy5.

Circadian regulation in rat Lung

Project description:Circadian rhythms are oscillations with a periodicity of 24 hours that are controlled by an endogenous clock and are observed in virtually all aspects of mammalian function from expression of genes to complex physiological processes. The master clock is present in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the anterior part of the hypothalamus and controls peripheral clocks present in other parts of the body . Although much is known about the mechanism of the central clock in the SCN, the regulation of clocks present in peripheral tissues is still unclear. This study is designed to examine fluctuations in gene expression in lungs within the 24 hour circadian cycle in normal animals. The objectives of this study is to identify and analyze circadian oscillation in gene expression in lungs, and to identify the role of circadian regulation in coordinating the functioning of this dynamic organ. Fifty-four male normal Wistar rats (250-350 g body weight) were housed in a strictly controlled stress free environment with light:dark cycles of 12 hr:12hr. Three animals were sacrificed at each of 18 selected time points within the 24 hour cycle. RNA was prepared from lungs for gene arrays. Time point designations reflect time after lights on in hours.

RNA-seq of neuronal SOX2-ablated murine suprachiasmatic nuclei against wild-type littermate controls

Project description:Mice lacking the stem/progenitor cell transcription factor, Sex determining region Y-box 2 (SOX2), in neurons of the suprachiasmatic nuclei display imprecise, poorly consolidated behavioral rhythms that do not entrain efficiently to environmental light cycles. RNA sequencing revealed that Sox2 deficiency alters the circadian transcriptome of the SCN, reducing the expression of many core clock genes and neuropeptide-receptor systems.

Temporal transcriptomics suggest that twin-peaking genes reset the clock

Project description:The mammalian suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) drives daily rhythmic behavior and physiology, yet a detailed understanding of its coordinated transcriptional programmes is lacking. To reveal the true nature of circadian variation in the mammalian SCN transcriptome we combined laser-capture microdissection (LCM) and RNA-Seq over a 24-hour light / dark cycle. We show that 7-times more genes exhibited a classic sinusoidal expression signature than previously observed in the SCN. Another group of 766 genes unexpectedly peaked twice, near both the start and end of the dark phase; this twin-peaking group is significantly enriched for synaptic transmission genes that are crucial for light-induced phase-shifting of the circadian clock. 342 intergenic non-coding RNAs, together with novel exons of annotated protein-coding genes, including Cry1, also show specific circadian expression variation. Overall, our data provide an important chronobiological resource (www.wgpembroke.com/shiny/SCNseq/) and allow us to propose that transcriptional timing in the SCN is gating clock resetting mechanisms. Pooled dissected tissue of the suprachiasmatic nucleus from five adult male mice provided one of three replicates for each of six time points over a 12:12 light/dark (LD) cycle (ZT2, 6, 10, 14, 18 and 22). Each biological replicate was sequenced over 3 separate lanes using Illumina HiSeq.

transcriptional analysis of breast circadian clock

Project description:Circadian clocks drive ~24 hr rhythms in tissue physiology. They rely on transcriptional/translational feedback loops driven by interacting networks of clock complexes.To gain insights into the role of the mammary clock, circadian time-series microarrays were performed to identify rhythmic genes in vivo. Breast tissues were isolated at 4 hr intervals for two circadian (24 hourly) cycles, from mice kept under constant darkness to avoid any light- or dark-driven genes.

Circadian regulation in rat abdominal adipose tissue

Project description:Circadian rhythms are oscillations with a periodicity of 24 hours that are controlled by an endogenous clock and are observed in virtually all aspects of mammalian function from expression of genes to complex physiological processes. The master clock is present in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the anterior part of the hypothalamus and controls peripheral clocks present in other parts of the body. Although much is known about the mechanism of the central clock in the SCN, the regulation of clocks present in peripheral tissues is still unclear. This study is designed to examine fluctuations in gene expression in abdominal white adipose tissue within the 24 hour circadian cycle in normal animals. The objectives of this study is to identify and analyze circadian oscillation in gene expression in white adipose tissue, and to identify the role of circadian regulation in coordinating the functioning of this dynamic tissue. Fifty-four male normal Wistar rats (250-350 g body weight) were housed in a strictly controlled stress free environment with light:dark cycles of 12 hr:12hr. Three animals were sacrificed at each of 18 selected time points within the 24 hour cycle. RNA was prepared from abdominal adipose tissue for gene arrays. Two samples were not used due to RNA degradation: Adipose .25-1 and Adipose 11-2. Time point designations reflect time after lights on in hours.

Suprachiasmatic VIP neurons are required for normal circadian rhythmicity with a subset expressing a molecularly distinct pacemaker profile

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.
