ABSTRACT In Cushing’s syndrome, the cortisol rhythm is impaired and can be associated with the disruption in the rhythmic expression of clock genes. In this study, we evaluated the expression of CLOCK, BMAL1, CRY1, CRY2, PER1, PER2, PER3 genes in peripheral blood leukocytes of healthy individuals (n = 13) and Cushing’s disease (CD) patients (n = 12). Participants underwent salivary cortisol measurement at 0900 h and 2300 h. Peripheral blood samples were obtained at 0900 h, 1300 h, 1700 h, and 2300 h for assessing clock gene expression by qPCR. Gene expression circadian variations were evaluated by the Cosinor method. In healthy controls, a circadian variation in the expression of CLOCK, BMAL1, CRY1, PER2, and PER3 was observed, whereas the expression of PER1 and CRY2 followed no specific pattern. The expression of PER2 and PER3 in healthy leukocytes presented a late afternoon acrophase, similarly to CLOCK, whereas CRY1 showed night acrophase, similarly to BMAL1. In CD patients, the circadian variation in the expression of clock genes was lost, along with the abolition of cortisol circadian rhythm. However, CRY2 exhibited a circadian variation with acrophase during the dark phase in patients. In conclusion, our data suggest that Cushing’s disease, which is characterized by hypercortisolism, is associated with abnormalities in the circadian pattern of clock genes. Higher expression of CRY2 at night outlines its putative role in the cortisol circadian rhythm disruption. 相似文献

Various physiological and behavioral processes exhibit circadian rhythmicity. These rhythms are usually maintained by negative feedback loops of core clock genes, namely, CLOCK, BMAL, PER, and CRY. Recently, dysfunction in the circadian clock has been recognized as an important foundation for the pathophysiology of lifestyle-related diseases, such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, and some cancers. We have reported that angiopoietin-like protein 2 (ANGPTL2) contributes to the pathogenesis of these lifestyle-related diseases by inducing chronic inflammation. However, molecular mechanisms underlying regulation of ANGPTL2 expression are poorly understood. Here, we assess circadian rhythmicity of ANGPTL2 expression in various mouse tissues. We observed that ANGPTL2 rhythmicity was similar to that of the PER2 gene, which is regulated by the CLOCK/BMAL1 complex. Promoter activity of the human ANGPTL2 gene was significantly induced by CLOCK and BMAL1, an induction markedly attenuated by CRY co-expression. We also identified functional E-boxes in the ANGPTL2 promoter and observed occupancy of these sites by endogenous CLOCK in human osteosarcoma cells. Furthermore, Cry-deficient mice exhibited arrhythmic Angptl2 expression. Taken together, these data suggest that periodic expression of ANGPTL2 is regulated by a molecular clock. 相似文献

Background: There is barely any evidence of antipsychotic drugs affecting the molecular clockwork in human, yet it is suggested that clock genes are associated with dopaminergic transmission, i.e. the main target of this therapeutics. We decided to verify if haloperidol and olanzapine affect expression of CLOCK, BMAL1, PER1 and CRY1 in a human central nervous system cell line model. Methods: U-87MG human glioblastoma cell line was used as an experimental model. The cells were incubated with or without haloperidol and olanzapine in the concentration of 5 and 20 μM for 24 h. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction with the ΔCT analysis was used to examine the effect of haloperidol and olanzapine on the mRNA expression of the genes. Results: At 5 μM, haloperidol decreased expression of CRY1 almost 20-fold. There was nearly a 1.5-fold increase in expression of PER1. Considering the 20 μM haloperidol concentration and both olanzapine concentrations, no other statistically significant effect was observed. Conclusions: At certain concentration, haloperidol seems to affect expression of particular clock genes in a human central nervous system cell line model, yet mechanism underlying this phenomenon remains elusive. 相似文献
