A phosphate transporter in VIPergic neurons of the suprachiasmatic nucleus gates locomotor activity during the light/dark transition in mice

ABSTRACT: The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) encodes time of day through changes in daily firing, with neurons being generally more active during the day and more silent at night. However, molecular mechanisms by which the SCN encodes and times behavior are not fully understood. To identify factors that could encode day/night differences in activity we combined patch-clamp recordings and single-cell sequencing (Patch-RNAseq) of individual SCN neurons in mice.

Light-induced Changes in the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus Transcriptome Regulated by the ERK/MAPK Pathway

Project description:The mammalian master circadian pacemaker within the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) maintains tight entrainment to the 24 hr light/dark cycle via a sophisticated clock-gated rhythm in the responsiveness of the oscillator to light. Intriguingly, entrainment is not merely a passive response, instead the internal oscillator responds and adjust its own timing to entrainment signals discriminating the time of day. For example, exposure to brief light pulses in the first and final hours of the subjective generate circadian phase delays and advances respectively; whereas similar photic pulses during the subjective day does not modify the phase. A central event in this light entrainment process appears to be the rapid induction of gene expression via the ERK/MAPK pathway. We used microarray-based expression profiling of the suprachiasmatic nucleus to examine the role of MAPK signaling in the light-evoked transcriptional response. We focused on three circadian timepoints that define the unique, clock-time delimited response properties of the SCN to light: the subjective day, early subjective night, and late subjective night.

Circadian VIPergic neurons of the suprachiasmatic nuclei sculpt the sleep-wake cycle

Project description:Although the mammalian rest-activity cycle is controlled by a "master clock" in the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) of the hypothalamus, it is unclear how firing of individual SCN neurons gates individual features of daily activity. Here, we demonstrate that a specific transcriptomically identified population of mouse VIP+ SCN neurons is active at the "wrong" time of the day -nighttime- when most SCN neurons are silent. Using chemogenetic and optogenetic strategies, we show that these neurons and their cellular clocks are necessary and sufficient to gate and time nighttime sleep, but have no effect upon daytime sleep. We propose mouse nighttime sleep, analogous to the human siesta, is a "hard-wired" property gated by specific neurons of the master clock to favor subsequent alertness prior to dawn (a circadian "wake maintenance zone"). Thus, the SCN is not simply a 24h metronome: specific populations sculpt critical features of the sleep-wake cycle.

Circadian rhythms in mouse choroid plexus identified by time-resolved RNAseq require clock in the suprachiasmatic nucleus

Project description:The aim of our study was to investigate the circadian regulation of cellular processes in mouse choroid plexus (ChP) and to determine their dependence on signals from the clock in the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN). We performed time-resolved transcriptomics of ChP samples from C57Bl6J mice with intact (Ctrl) or surgically removed SCN (SCNx) collected every 4 h over 2 days in constant darkness and from FoxJ1-ERT2-Cre+/-; Bmal1fl/fl mice with ChP-specific clock disruption (Bmal1-KO) collected at 2 time points. We found widespread circadian gene expression in Ctrl mice that was not present in SCNx mice, and the SCNx day/night ratios were reduced similarly to Bmal1-KO.

Deciphering responses of the fetal suprachiasmatic nuclei to the rhythmic maternal signals using omics approach

Project description:We report circadian (time series, circadian time 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 21h) transcriptomic analysis of mouse fetal (embryonic day 17) suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) from either sham operarated ad libitum fed mothers (group A) or from SCN-lesioned mothers on resctricted feeding regime. The analysis revealed low amplitude rhythms in the fetal SCN driven by maternal SCN and/or maternal feeding behavior.

Transcriptome profiling of the mouse suprachiasmatic nucleus at single cell resolution

Project description:Circadian rhythms are governed by the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) which consists of ca. 20,000 cellular oscillators bound together in a powerful time-keeping network. The goal of this study was to characterise its component cells and network structure by conducting single-cell sequencing of SCN organotypic slices. scRNASeq libraries were prepared using 10x Genomics Chromium Single Cell 3’ Library and Gel Bead v2 kit. SCN cells, diluted in 0.04% BSA-nuclease-free water, reverse transcription master mix and partitioning oil, were loaded on a ChromiumTM Single Cell A Chip and run on the Chromium Controller to obtain at target cell recovery rate of 8,000 cells. Final libraries were sequenced on one flow cell of an Illumina HiSeq 4000 with a read length of 26bp for read 1 (cell barcode and unique molecule identifier and sample barcode) and 98bp for read 2 (RNA read) to yield approximately 340 million reads per sample. We sequenced 13,324 cells from 52 SCN slices at circadian time 7.5 (mid-day) over three independent sequencing runs, and 16,996 cells from 36 SCN slices at circadian time 15.5 (mid-night) over two independent sequencing runs.

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.

Transcriptome expressed in the mouse suprachiasmatic nucleus

Project description:This array set was used to identify the genes that are highly expressed in the mouse suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). Because pharmacological inhibition of Gai/o activity with pertussis toxin hampers intercellular synchronization and causes dampened rhythms of the entire SCN, we hypothesized that member(s) of the Regulator of G protein Signaling (RGS) family might contribute to synchronized cellular oscillations in the SCN. To test this hypothesis, we surveyed all known mouse Rgs genes for their expression by using GeneChip and selected the genes that are highly expressed in the SCN for further analysis.

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.

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.
