Restricted Feeding Reveals Maternal Entrainment of Weak Circadian Oscillators in Fetal Mouse Livers

ABSTRACT: 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.

A Minimal Circadian Clock Network for Glucose Tolerance in Mice

Project description:Physiology is regulated by interconnected cell and tissue circadian clocks. Disruption of the rhythms generated by this interconnectedness is associated with metabolic disease. Here we tested the interactions between clocks in two critical components of organismal metabolism – liver and skeletal muscle – by rescuing clock function either in each organ separately, or in both organs simultaneously, in otherwise clock-less mice. Experiments revealed that individual clocks are partially sufficient for tissue glucose metabolism, yet the connections between both tissue clocks coupled with daily feeding rhythms maximizes systemic glucose tolerance. This synergy relies in part on local transcriptional control of the glucose machinery, feeding-responsive signals such as insulin, and metabolic cycles that connect the muscle and liver. We posit that spatiotemporal mechanisms of muscle and liver play an essential role in the maintenance of systemic glucose homeostasis, and that disrupting this diurnal coordination can contribute to the metabolic disease.

Liver Clock Rescue

Project description:Circadian clocks drive 24-h rhythms of physiology and behavior. The circadian clock of hepatocytes has been shown to regulate glucose metabolism, and we were interested if rescuing liver clock function can reverse metabolic impairments in hyperphagic/obese Clock-D19 mutant mice. We compared transcripomte regulation in livers (at Zeitgeber time ZT10) of wild-type (C57BL/6J) and Clock-D19 mice and Clock-D19 mice with genetic rescue of liver clock function using hydrodynamic tail vein injection of a WT-CLOCK expression plasmid

Rhythmic Food Intake Drives Rhythmic Gene Expression More Potently than the Hepatic Circadian Clock in Mice

Project description:Virtually every mammalian tissue exhibits rhythmic expression in thousands of genes, which activate tissue-specific processes at appropriate times of the day. Much of this rhythmic expression is thought to be driven cell-autonomously by molecular circadian clocks present throughout the body. However, increasing evidence suggests that systemic signals, and more specifically rhythmic food intake (RFI), can regulate rhythmic gene expression independently of the circadian clock. To determine the relative contribution of cell autonomous clocks versus RFI in the regulation of rhythmic gene expression, we developed a system that allows long-term manipulation of the daily rhythm of food intake in the mouse, and analyzed liver gene expression by RNA-Seq in mice fed ad libitum, only at night, or arrhythmically (mouse eating 1/8th of their daily food intake every 3 hours). We show that 70% of the cycling mouse liver transcriptome loses rhythmicity under arrhythmic feeding. Remarkably, this loss of rhythmic gene expression under arrhythmic feeding is independent of the liver circadian clock, which continues to exhibit normal oscillations in core clock gene expression. Many genes that lose rhythmicity participate in the regulation of metabolic processes such as lipogenesis and glycogenesis, likely contributing to an increased sensitivity to insulin that was observed in arrhythmically-fed mice. We also show that night-restricted feeding significantly increases the number of rhythmically expressed genes as well as the amplitude of the rhythms. Together, these results indicate that metabolic transcription factors control a large fraction of the rhythmic mouse liver transcriptome, and demonstrate that systemic signals driven by rhythmic food intake play a more important role than the cell-autonomous circadian clock in driving rhythms in liver gene expression and metabolic functions.

Integration of Feeding Behaviour by the Liver Circadian Clock Reveals Network Dependency of Metabolic Rhythms [ChIP-seq]

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.

Central role of phosphorylation in the circadian control of liver metabolism

Project description:Circadian clocks are endogenous oscillators that drive organismal metabolism and physiology. Here, we report the first global in vivo quantification of circadian phosphorylation rhythms in mammals. Of more than 20,000 in vivo phosphosites, 25% significantly oscillate in the mouse liver, including novel sites on core clock proteins. Analyzing kinase substrate motifs, we find that the EGF/RAS/ERK pathway is predominantly activated during the day and the AKT/mTOR/p70S6K at night. The extent and amplitude of phosphorylation cycles dominate the rhythms of transcript and protein abundance. A dominant regulatory role for phosphorylation-dependent circadian tuning of signaling pathways allows the organism to rapidly and economically respond to daily changes in nutrient availability and integrate different signaling triggers.

Feeding differentially regulates clocks and rhythmicity of peripheral tissues through the liver-clock

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.

Angptl8 mediates food-driven resetting of hepatic circadian clock in mice

Project description:Mammalian circadian clocks precisely control the rhythms of behavior and physiology, and can be reset by various environmental signals. While the light-dark (LD) cycle resets the master clock, timed food intake is a potent synchronizer of peripheral clocks. As the largest metabolic organ, the liver sensitively responds to the food signals and secrets hepatokines, leading to the robust regulation of metabolic and clock processes. However, it remains unknown which hepatokine mediates the food-driven resetting of the liver clock independent of the master clock. In our current study, we clustered high-throughput RNA sequencing results to screen out candidate genes that mediate the food-driven resetting of the liver clock

Circadian Proteomics Landscape of Mouse Livers Organized by Time-restricted Feeding: Proteomics

Project description:Meal timing is essential in synchronization of circadian rhythms in different organ systems through clock-dependent and -independent mechanisms. The liver is a critical metabolic organ whose circadian clock and transcriptome can be readily reset by meal timing. However, it remains largely unexplored how circadian rhythms in the liver are organized in time-restricted feeding that intervenes meal timing. Here, we applied data-independent acquisition proteomics to characterize circadian features associated with day/sleep- (DRF) and night/wake (NRF)-time restricted feeding in nocturnal female mice. The transcriptomics and metabolomics datasets are public (see www.circametdb.org.cn).
