Cytosine modifications exhibit circadian oscillations that are involved in epigenetic diversity and aging [Bisulfite-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Circadian rhythmicity governs a remarkable array of fundamental biological functions and is mediated by cyclical transcriptomic and proteomic activities. Epigenetic factors are also involved in this circadian machinery; however, despite extensive efforts, detection and characterization of circadian cytosine modifications at the nucleotide level have remained elusive. In this study, we report that a large proportion of epigenetically variable cytosines show a circadian pattern in their modification status in mice. Importantly, the cytosines with circadian epigenetic oscillations significantly overlapped with the cytosines exhibiting age-related changes in their modification status. Our findings suggest that evolutionary advantageous processes like circadian rhythmicity can also contribute to an organism’s deterioration.

Circadian oscillations of cytosine modification in humans contribute to epigenetic variability, aging, and complex disease

Project description:Background: Maintenance of physiological circadian rhythm plays a crucial role in human health. Numerous studies have shown that disruption of circadian rhythm may increase risk for malignant, psychiatric, metabolic, and other diseases. Results: Extending our recent findings of oscillating cytosine modifications (osc-modCs) in mice, in this study, we show that osc-modCs are also prevalent in human neutrophils. Osc-modCs may play a role in both gene regulation, can explain parts of intra- and inter-individual epigenetic variation, and are signatures of aging. Finally, we show that osc-modCs are linked to three complex diseases and provide a new interpretation of cross-sectional epigenome-wide association studies. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that loss of balance between cytosine methylation and demethylation during the circadian cycle can be a potential mechanism for complex disease. Additional experiments, however, are required to investigate the possible involvement of confounding effects, such as hidden cellular heterogeneity. Circadian rhythmicity, one of the key adaptations of life forms on Earth, may contribute to frailty later in life.

Oscillations in supercoiling drive circadian gene expression in cyanobacteria

Project description:The cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 exhibits oscillations in mRNA transcript abundance with 24-hour periodicity under continuous light conditions. The mechanism underlying these oscillations remains elusive â?? neither cis nor trans-factors controlling circadian gene expression phase have been identified. Here we show that the topological status of the chromosome is highly correlated with circadian gene expression state. We also demonstrate that DNA sequence characteristics of genes that appear monotonically activated and monotonically repressed by chromosomal relaxation during the circadian cycle are similar to those of supercoiling responsive genes in E. coli. Furthermore, perturbation of superhelical status within the physiological range elicits global changes in gene expression similar to those that occur during the normal circadian cycle. Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 was subjected to two consecutive light/dark cycles and released into continuous light (T = 0). Cells were sampled every 4 hours from T = 24 to T = 84 hours for microarray analysis to characterize circadian gene expression. In a separate experiment, to characterize the response of S. elongatus to immediate chromosome relaxation, cells were sampled at T = 56 and T = 64 hours, immediately followed by novobiocin treatment (0.1 ug/ml), and the resulting response was measured by microarray after 5, 10, 30, 90, and 150 minutes. This experiment was designed to test whether chromosomal relaxation is sufficient to induce gene expression changes similar to those observed during the circadian cycle.

Disrupted Circadian Oscillations in Type 2 Diabetes are Linked to Altered Rhythmic Mitochondrial Metabolism in Skeletal Muscle [Affymetrix]

Project description:Circadian rhythms are generated by an auto-regulatory feedback loop composed of transcriptional activators and repressors. Disruption of circadian rhythms contributes to Type 2 diabetes (T2D) pathogenesis. We elucidated whether altered circadian rhythmicity of clock genes is associated with metabolic dysfunction in T2D. Transcriptional cycling of core clock genes BMAL1, CLOCK, and PER3 was altered in skeletal muscle from individuals with T2D and this was coupled with reduced number and amplitude of cycling genes and disturbed circadian oxygen consumption. Inner-mitochondria associated genes were enriched for rhythmic peaks in NGT, but not T2D, and positively correlated with insulin sensitivity. ChIP-sequencing identified CLOCK and BMAL1 binding to inner-mitochondrial genes associated with insulin sensitivity, implicating regulation by the core clock. Inner-mitochondria disruption altered core-clock gene expression and free-radical production, phenomena that were restored by resveratrol treatment. We identify bi-directional communication between mitochondrial function and rhythmic gene expression, processes which are disturbed in diabetes.

Circadian rhythm in NIH3T3 cells

Project description:Identification of cyclical expressed coding and non-coding genes during the circadian rhythm in NIH3T3 cells. NIH3T3 cells were synchronized for their circadian rhythm and RNA sequencing were performed at several time points along the rhythm. This data was used to identify cyclical expressed genes as well as long intergenic non-coding RNAs. NIH3T3 cells were synchronized with 100 nM Dexamethasone for 2 hours, then medium was changed to normal culture medium (0h). Every 4 hours cells were harvested, RNA isolated and RNAseq performed.

Saturated Fat Impairs Circadian Transcriptomics through Histone Modification of Enhancers

Project description:Aims/hypothesis: Obesity and elevated circulating lipids may impair metabolism by disrupting the molecular circadian clock. We tested the hypothesis that lipid-overload may interact with the circadian clock and alter the rhythmicity of gene expression through epigenetic mechanisms. Methods: We determined the effect of the saturated fatty acid palmitate on circadian transcriptomics and examined the impact on histone H3 lysine K27 acetylation (H3K27ac) and the regulation of circadian rhythms in primary human skeletal muscle myotubes. Total H3 abundance and histone H3K27ac was assessed in vastus lateralis muscle biopsies from men with either obesity or normal weight. Results: Palmitate reprogrammed the circadian transcriptome in myotubes without altering the mRNA rhythm of core clock genes. Genes with enhanced cycling in response to palmitate were associated with post-translational modification of histones. Cycling of histone 3 lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27ac), a marker of active gene enhancers, was modified by palmitate treatment in myotubes. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and sequencing confirmed that palmitate altered the cycling of DNA regions associated with H3K27ac. Overlap of mRNA and DNA regions associated with H3K27ac and pharmacological inhibition of histone acetyl transferases revealed novel cycling genes associated to lipid exposure in human myotubes. Conclusion/interpretation: Palmitate disrupts transcriptomic rhythmicity and modifies histone H3K27ac in circadian manner, suggesting acute lipid-overload alters the circadian chromatin landscape and reprograms circadian gene expression of skeletal muscle.
