Comprehensive and cell-type-based analysis of microRNA profiles and functions in mouse suprachiasmatic nucleus

ABSTRACT: Circadian rhythm governs a variety of biological processes in essentially all living organisms and microRNAs have been found to play important roles in the post-transcriptional regulation of circadian clocks. However, the microRNA expression profile in mouse central circadian clock – suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is lacking. In this study, we systematically profiled microRNAs in mouse SCN and SCN subtype neurons by high sensitive small RNA sequencing and examined their potential circadian functions. We found that a large fraction of known microRNAs are SCN-specific and 20 of them are also oscillated significantly. Predicted targets of these 20 microRNAs were enriched in circadian rhythm pathway as well. Integrated analysis of microRNA and mRNA revealed 3 clock-related functional modules, demonstrating the regulation roles of miR-24, miR-30, miR-7a, miR-7b, miR125a and miR125b in SCN. Furthermore, we observed distinct microRNA profiles in SCN subtype neurons with divergent regulatory functions, which correlated with their differential spatial distribution. In addition, we also identified a proportion of light-response microRNAs in SCN, one of which was miR-7a. Further experiments showed that miR-7a directly target fos and regulated its translation in SCN. All these observations indicate important circadian regulation roles of microRNA in central circadian clock.

Mouse SCN in LC-MSMS - 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.

Spatiotemporal single-cell analysis of gene expression in the mouse suprachiasmatic nucleus

Project description:Mammalian circadian behaviors are orchestrated by suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the hypothalamus. Yet basic SCN cell types and their roles in circadian pacemaking are still unclear. In this study, we comprehensively characterized the basic cell types of SCN and their circadian and light-induced gene expression. In SCN, we identified seven major cell types among which neurons, astrocytes, ependymocytes and endothelial cells display cell-type specific circadian gene expression. We found that five SCN neuron subtypes, Avp+/Nms+, Vip+/Nms+, Vip+/Grp+, Cck+/C1ql3+ and Cck+/Bdnf+, differ in their spatial distribution, circadian rhythmicity and light responsiveness. Among the rhythmic neuron subtypes, we observed a wave of circadian gene expression propagating from the subtypes in posterior SCN to the subtypes in anterior SCN. Such wave can be explained by the neuropeptide-receptor signaling network in which Avp+/Nms+ subtype is the leader of circadian oscillations. Our study provides insights into the basic neural mechanism of circadian pacemaking in mammals.

MicroRNA miR-16 is anti-proliferative in enterocytes and exhibits diurnal rhythmicity in intestinal crypts

Project description:This is the first report to document circadian rhythmicity of specific microRNAs in rat jejunum. Our data provide a link between the anti-proliferative microRNA miR-16 and the intestinal proliferation rhythm and point to miR-16 as an important regulator of proliferation in jejunal crypts. This function may be essential to match proliferation and absorptive capacity with nutrient availability.

MicroRNAs Shape Circadian Hepatic Gene Expression on a Transcriptome-Wide Scale

Project description:Introduction: A considerable proportion of mammalian gene expression undergoes circadian oscillations. Post-transcriptional mechanisms likely make important contributions to mRNA abundance rhythms. Aim: We have investigated how microRNAs contribute to core clock and clock-controlled gene expression using mice in which microRNA biogenesis can be inactivated in the liver. Results: While the hepatic core clock was surprisingly resilient to microRNA loss, whole transcriptome sequencing uncovered widespread effects on clock ouput gene expression. Cyclic transcription paired with microRNA-mediated regulation was thus identified as a widespread phenomenon that affected up to 30% of the rhythmic transcriptome and served to post-transcriptionally adjust the phases and amplitudes of rhythmic mRNA accumulation. However, only a few mRNA rhythms were actually generated by microRNAs. Finally, we pinpoint several microRNAs predicted to act as modulators of rhythmic transcripts, and identify rhythmic pathways particularly prone to microRNA regulation. Conclusion: Our study provides a comprehensive analysis of miRNA activity in shaping hepatic circadian gene expression and can serve as a valuable resource for further investigations into the regulatory roles that miRNAs play in liver gene expression and physiology.

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.

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.
