Project description:A functional interaction between peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) and components of the circadian clock has been suggested; however, it remains to be clarified whether those transcriptional factors interact with each other to regulate the expression of their target genes. In this study, we used a ligand of PPARalpha, bezafibrate, to search the PPARalpha-regulated genes that express in a CLOCK-dependent circadian manner. Microarrays analyses using hepatic RNA isolated from bezafibrate treated-wild type, Clock mutant (Clk/Clk), and PPARalpha-null mice revealed that 136 genes are transcriptionally regulated by PPARalpha in a CLOCK-dependent manner. Clk/Clk mutant mice with Jcl:ICR background, wild-type mice with the same strain, and PPARalpha-null mice aged 6-12 weeks were housed under a 12 h light-12 h dark cycle [LD 12:12; lights on at Zeitgeber time (ZT) 0]. For chronic treatment of bezafibrate, mice were provided with either a normal diet or the same diet containing 0.5% w/w bezafibrate for 5 days. A white fluorescent lamp provided light (300 - 500 lux at cage level) during the day. To examine the transient effect of bezafibrate injection on hepatic gene expression, bezafibrate was dissolved in warm (~40 C) sterile corn oil (Sigma) at a concentration of 10 mg/ml and administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) in a single dose of 100 mg/kg body weight at ZT2. To examine the PPARalpha-regulated genes that express in a CLOCK-dependent manner in mice, we performed oligonucleotide microarray analysis at ZT14, when CLOCK/BMAL1 transcriptional activity is maximal, using RNA isolated from wild-type (n = 3), Clock mutant (n = 3), and PPARalpha-null mice (n = 3) treated with bezafibrate for 5 days, and control wild-type mice (n = 3). Livers were collected and frozen in liquid nitrogen. Total RNA (250 ng) was extracted using RNAiso.

Project description:This experiment was conducted to identify target genes of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARa) in skeletal muscle of transgenic mice that overexpressed PPARa. The following abstract from the published manuscript describes the major findings of this work. A potential link between muscle peroxisome proliferator- activated receptor-alpha signaling and obesity-related diabetes.Finck BN, Bernal-Mizrachi C, Han DH, Coleman T, Sambandam N, LaRiviere LL, Holloszy JO, Semenkovich CF, Kelly DP. The role of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha) in the development of insulin-resistant diabetes was evaluated using gain- and loss-of-function approaches. Transgenic mice overexpressing PPARalpha in muscle (MCK-PPARalpha mice) developed glucose intolerance despite being protected from diet-induced obesity. Conversely, PPARalpha null mice were protected from diet-induced insulin resistance in the context of obesity. In skeletal muscle, MCK-PPARalpha mice exhibited increased fatty acid oxidation rates, diminished AMP-activated protein kinase activity, and reduced insulin-stimulated glucose uptake without alterations in the phosphorylation status of key insulin-signaling proteins. These effects on muscle glucose uptake involved transcriptional repression of the GLUT4 gene. Pharmacologic inhibition of fatty acid oxidation or mitochondrial respiratory coupling prevented the effects of PPARalpha on GLUT4 expression and glucose homeostasis. These results identify PPARalpha-driven alterations in muscle fatty acid oxidation and energetics as a potential link between obesity and the development of glucose intolerance and insulin resistance.

Project description:The Drosophila circadian clock is driven by a transcriptional feedback loop in which the bHLH transcription factor CLOCK-CYCLE (CLK-CYC) binds E-boxes to transcribe genes encoding the PERIOD-TIMELESS (PER-TIM) repressor, which releases CLK-CYC from E-boxes to inhibit transcription. The bHLH-Orange transcription factor CLOCKWORK ORANGE (CWO) reinforces repression by binding E-boxes to displace CLK-CYC, but also acts through an unknown mechanism to promote CLK-CYC transcription. To determine how CWO activates CLK-CYC transcription, we identified CWO DNA binding targets that are upregulated in the absence of CWO repression, conserved in mammals and preferentially expressed in brain pacemaker neurons. Among the genes identified was the Drosophila ortholog of mammalian Clock Interacting Protein Circadian (Cipc) that acts to repress CLOCK-BMAL1 transcription. Reducing or eliminating Drosophila Cipc expression shortens circadian period while overexpressing Cipc lengthens circadian period in flies, consistent with previous analysis showing that Drosophila Cipc represses CLK-CYC transcription in S2 cell culture. Long period rhythms of cwo mutant flies are largely rescued when Cipc expression is reduced or eliminated, indicating that increased Cipc expression mediates period lengthening of cwo mutants. These results suggest a mechanism for CWO-dependent CLK-CYC activation: CWO inhibition of CIPC repression promotes CLK-CYC transcription. Such a mechanism may be conserved given that orthologs of cwo and Cipc carry out analogous roles in the mammalian circadian clock.

Project description:CLOCK (CLK) is a master transcriptional regulator of the circadian clock in Drosophila. To identify CLK direct target genes and address circadian transcriptional regulation in Drosophila, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation-tiling array assays (ChIP-chip) with a number of circadian proteins. CLK binding cycles on at least 800 sites with maximal binding in the early night. The CLK partner protein CYCLE (CYC) is on most of these sites. The CLK/CYC heterodimer is joined 4-6 hrs later by the transcriptional repressor PER, indicating that the majority of CLK targets are regulated similarly to core circadian genes (Menet et al. 2010). About 30% of target genes also show cycling Pol II binding. Many of these generate cycling RNAs despite not being documented in prior RNA cycling studies. This is due in part to different RNA isoforms and to fly head tissue heterogeneity. CLK has specific targets in different tissues, implying that important CLK partner proteins and/or mechanisms contribute to gene-specific and tissue-specific regulation.

Project description:Influence of diet and neuronal clk (clock) activity on hemolymph proteomics. We have shown that as photoreceptors die (in the fly) they necrose, which results in their intercellular contents leaking into the hemolymph. We hypothesize that this process is regulated by diet and circadian clock control.
Analysis of differential protein expression in the hemolymph from flies reared on a high protein diet. Comparison of flies with and without a functional circadian clock within their photoreceptors.

Project description:Bezafibrate (BEZ), a pan activator of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs), is generally used to treat hyperlipidemia. Clinical trials on patients suffering from type 2 diabetes indicated that BEZ also has beneficial effects on glucose metabolism, but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Much less is known about the function of BEZ in type 1 diabetes. Here, we show that BEZ treatment markedly improves hyperglycemia, glucose and insulin tolerance in streptozotocin (STZ)-treated mice, an insulin-deficient mouse model of type 1 diabetes presenting with very high blood glucose levels. Furthermore, BEZ-treated mice also exhibited improved metabolic flexibility as well as an enhanced mitochondrial mass and function in the liver. Our data demonstrate a beneficial effect of BEZ treatment on STZ mice reducing diabetes and suggest that BEZ ameliorates impaired glucose metabolism possibly via augmented hepatic mitochondrial performance, improved insulin sensitivity and metabolic flexibility. We performed gene expression microarray analysis on liver tissue derived from streptozotocin-treated mice treated with bezafibrate in addition.

Project description:Little is known about the contribution of translational control to circadian rhythms. To address this issue and in particular translational control by microRNAs (miRNAs), we knocked down the miRNA biogenesis pathway in Drosophila circadian tissues. In combination with an increase in circadian-mediated transcription, this severely affected Drosophila behavioral rhythms, indicating that miRNAs function in circadian timekeeping. To identify miRNA–mRNA pairs important for this regulation, immunoprecipitation of AGO1 followed by microarray analysis identified mRNAs under miRNA-mediated control. They included three core clock mRNAs—clock (clk), vrille (vri), and clockworkorange (cwo). To identify miRNAs involved in circadian timekeeping, we exploited circadian cell-specific inhibition of the miRNA biogenesis pathway followed by tiling array analysis. This approach identified miRNAs expressed in fly head circadian tissue. Behavioral and molecular experiments show that one of these miRNAs, the developmental regulator bantam, has a role in the core circadian pacemaker. S2 cell biochemical experiments indicate that bantam regulates the translation of clk through an association with three target sites located within the clk 39 untranslated region (UTR). Moreover, clk transgenes harboring mutated bantam sites in their 39 UTRs rescue rhythms of clk mutant flies much less well than wild-type CLK transgenes.

Ago IP immunoprecipitation was performed from fly heads collected at different circadian timpoints. For wild type samples 2 biological replicates were collected for each of the six analyzed timepoints from the head protein extract (INPUT) and AGO 1-immunoprecipitated samples (IP). Gene expression was analyzed from both samples by the use of oligonucleotide microarrays. The INPUT sample corresponding to ZT3 has only one replica.
