Project description:Extended consumption of food into the rest period perturbs the phase relationship between circadian clocks in the periphery and the brain and has deleterious effects on health through mechanisms that remain incompletely understood. Beyond the liver, how other metabolic organs respond to hypocaloric diet (amount and timing) is largely unexplored. We investigated how feeding time impacts circadian gene expression in white (eWAT) and brown (BAT) adipose tissues in comparison to liver and hypothalamus. With automated feeders, we restricted food to either daytime or nighttime in C57BL/6J male mice, with or without caloric restriction. We found tissue-specific changes in the phase and amplitude of genome-wide mRNA expression patterns induced by daytime feeding in liver and eWAT, whereas BAT exhibited resilience and remained predominately entrained to the light-dark cycle, similar to hypothalamus. We uncovered an internal split within the BAT in response to conflicting environmental cues, displaying inverted oscillations on a subset of metabolic genes without modifying its local core circadian machinery. Integrating intra- and inter-tissue disruptions in circadian clock-controlled transcriptional networks with metabolic outcomes may help elucidate the mechanism underlying the health burden of eating at the wrong time of the day.

Project description:Daily rhythms in mammalian behaviour and physiology are generated by a multi-oscillator circadian system entrained through environmental cues (e.g. light and feeding). The presence of tissue niche-dependent physiological time cues has been proposed, allowing tissues the ability of circadian phase adjustment based on local signals. However, to date, such stimuli have remained elusive. Here we show that daily patterns of mechanical loading and associated osmotic challenge within physiological ranges reset circadian clock phase and amplitude in cartilage and intervertebral disc tissues in vivo and in tissue explant cultures. Hyperosmolarity (but not hypo-osmolarity) resets clocks in young and ageing skeletal tissues and induce genome-wide expression of rhythmic genes in cells. Mechanistically, RNAseq and biochemical analysis revealed the PLD2-mTORC2-AKT-GSK3β axis as a convergent pathway for both in vivo loading and hyperosmolarity-induced clock changes. These results reveal diurnal patterns of mechanical loading and consequent daily surges in osmolarity as a bona fide tissue niche-specific time cue to maintain skeletal circadian rhythms in sync.

Project description:The mammalian circadian clock, expressed throughout the brain and body, controls daily metabolic homeostasis. Clock function in peripheral tissues is required, but not sufficient, for this task. Due to lack of specialized animal models, it is unclear how tissue clocks interact with extrinsic signals to drive molecular oscillations. Here, we present a model in which the interaction between feeding and the liver clock can be isolated in vivo by reconstituting Bmal1 exclusively in hepatocytes (Liver-RE) in otherwise clock-less mice. We found that the cooperative action of BMAL1 and the transcription factor CEBPB regulates daily liver metabolic transcriptional programs. Functionally, the liver clock and feeding rhythm are sufficient to drive temporal glucose homeostasis. By contrast, liver rhythms tied to redox and lipid metabolism required communication with the skeletal muscle clock, demonstrating peripheral clock cross-talk. Our results highlight how the inner workings of the clock system rely on communicating signals to maintain daily metabolism.

Project description:Circadian (~24 hour) clocks exist in almost all types of living organism and play a fundamental role in regulating daily physiological and behavioural processes. The transcription factor BMAL1 (ARNTL) is thought to be one of the principal drivers of the molecular clock in mammals since its deletion abolishes 24-hour activity patterning, an important physiological output of the clockwork. However, whether or not Bmal1-/- mice can nevertheless display molecular 24-hour rhythms is unknown. Here, we determined whether Bmal1 function is necessary for daily molecular oscillations in two tissues – skin fibroblasts and liver. Unexpectedly, both tissues exhibited robust 24-hour oscillations over 2-3 days in the absence of any exogenous synchronizers such as daily light or temperature cycles. This demonstrates a competent 24-hour molecular pacemaker in Bmal1 knockouts. Indeed, molecular oscillations were pervasive throughout the transcriptome, proteome and phosphoproteome of Bmal1-/- mice. In particular, several proteins exhibited rhythmic phosphorylation in both Bmal1-proficient and -deficient cells, highlighting an unanticipated role for post-translational regulators in 24-hour rhythms in the absence of any known clock mechanisms.

Project description:Although circadian clocks oscillate in most cells, it has been difficult to detect canonical expression of clock genes in fetal rodent tissues, including the fetal liver. The oscillation status of fetal clocks and the maternal influence on these clocks have not yet been conclusively defined. Here we report that, when the mother mice are under restricted feeding, the expression rhythms of several clock genes can be detected in fetal mouse livers. Those rhythms, although of low amplitude, reversed their profiles under opposite feeding cycles, suggesting maternal entrainment of the weak fetal liver clocks. However, Bmal1 could show biphasic expression in the fetal livers. The expression of some metabolic genes (e.g. Insig1) also showed biphasic daily changes in fetal livers, possibly as a result of interactions between the unique in utero milieu and the fetal liver clocks. Regular rhythms of clock gene expression were detected in dissociated fetal hepatocytes in culture. Differential expression of metabolic genes were found between fetal and adult livers, suggesting that metabolic features affected clock amplitude. Genome-wide differences in DNA methylation were also found between adult and fetal livers. Some of those epigenetic changes were likely critical for the developmental changes in clock amplitudes.

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.

Project description:Biological rhythms are widespread, allowing organisms to temporally organize their behavior and metabolism in advantageous ways. Such proper timing of molecular and cellular events is critical to their development and health. This is best understood in the case of the circadian clock that orchestrates the daily sleep/wake cycle of organisms. Temporal rhythms can also be used for spatial organization, if information from an oscillating system can be recorded within the tissue in a manner that leaves a permanent periodic pattern. One example of this is the "segmentation clock" used by the vertebrate embryo to rhythmically and sequentially subdivide its elongating body axis. The segmentation clock moves with the elongation of the embryo, such that its period sets the segment length as the tissue grows outward. Although the study of this system is still relatively young compared to the circadian clock, outlines of molecular, cellular, and tissue-level regulatory mechanisms of timing have emerged. The question remains, however, is it truly a clock? Here we seek to introduce the segmentation clock to a wider audience of chronobiologists, focusing on the role and control of timing in the system. We compare and contrast the segmentation clock with the circadian clock, and propose that the segmentation clock is actually an oscillatory ruler, with a primary function to measure embryonic space.

Project description:The mammalian circadian system consists of a central clock in the brain that synchronizes clocks in peripheral tissues. While the hierarchy between the central and peripheral clocks is well established, peripheral clocks are largely viewed as a group and little is known regarding their specificity and functional organization. We employed feeding paradigms in conjunction with liver-specific clock-deficient murine model to map disparities and potential interactions between peripheral clocks. We found that peripheral clocks largely differ in their response to feeding-time. In view of its prominent role in nutrient processing, we hypothesized that the liver-clock instigate the response of peripheral clocks to feeding. Although the liver-clock did not affect the rhythmicity of clocks in other peripheral tissues, it strongly modulated their transcriptional rhythmicity upon daytime feeding. Overall, our findings suggest a role for the liver-clock in buffering feeding-related signals that affect rhythmicity of other peripheral tissues upon nutrient challenge, irrespective of their clocks.
