Circadian rhythms of plasma lipids and lipoproteins, lipoprotein lipase activities and VLDL secretion rates were studied in fed and food-deprived (12 h) male rats after a light/dark synchronization of 14 days. In ad libitum fed rats, a circadian rhythm of plasma triacylglycerol, blood glucose and liver glycogen was clearly identified. A rhythm was also identified for plasma cholesterol, but not phospholipids. The peak of plasma triacylglycerol occurred 2 h after the beginning of the light period (7.00 a.m.), and the nadir, 2 h after the beginning of the dark period (7.00 p.m.). The differences of plasma triacylglycerol at these two circadian stages were even more pronounced in food-deprived rats and were confined to the very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) fraction. Plasma post-heparin and heart and muscle lipoprotein lipase activities were 50-100% higher at 7.00 p.m., the time when plasma triacylglycerol were lowest, as compared to 7.00 a.m. Plasma post-heparin hepatic lipase and adipose tissue lipoprotein lipase activities, in contrast, did not change. VLDL secretion rates were somewhat higher at 7.00 a.m. compared to 7.00 p.m., but this difference was not significant. It is concluded that physiological variation of heart and muscle lipoprotein lipase together with small differences of VLDL secretion rates are responsible for normal range oscillations of plasma VLDL triacylglycerol levels. 相似文献

In a previous study we showed that rats fed ad libitum and maintained on a 12-h light/ 12-h dark cycle demonstrated out-of-phase circadian oscillations in the rates of ornithine aminotransferase and serine dehydratase synthesis. As part of an investigation of the factors regulating both the generation of these cycles and their dissimilarity, this paper ompares the circadian fluctuations in the rates of ornithine aminotransferase and serine dehydratase synthesis measured immunochemically in rats given a single 2-h daily feeding in conjunction with exposure to constant light or a 12-h light/12-h dark cycle. When the 2-hr feeding was administered to rats under constant light, reciprocal circadian oscillations in ornithine aminotransferase and serine dehydratase synthesis were observed regardless of the temporal location of the feeding interval. Ornithine aminotransferase synthesis began to increase after the feeding interval and reached a maximum 12 h later while serine dehydratase showed the opposite response. In rats maintained on both the restricted feeding regimen and a 12-h light/12-h dark cycle, however, retention of synthesis oscillations depended on the temporal location of the restricted feeding interval within the light-dark cycle. Rats fed for 2 h at the beginning of the dark phase exhibited circadian oscillations in serine dehydratase synthesis and a high nonoscillating level of ornithine aminotransferase synthesis, whereas rats fed for 2 h at the beginning of the light phase exhibited circadian oscillations in ornithine aminotransferase synthesis and a low nonoscillating level of serine dehydratase synthesis. These responses suggest the existence of meal-responsive and light-responsive regulators of ornithine aminotransferase and serine dehydratase synthesis. 相似文献

Food ingestion has a variable influence on pituitary-adrenal hormone secretion depending on the species studied and/or the experimental design. In this study, changes in plasma concentrations of ACTH and corticosterone following 30 min of food ingestion were compared in both 24 h fasted and ad libitum fed rats tested during either the early light cycle or the early dark cycle. In the dark, food ingestion caused significant decreases in both ACTH (to 80% of control) and corticosterone (to 32% of control) in both fasted and ad libitum fed rats. In contrast, in the light, food ingestion by the fasted animal resulted in a doubling of corticosterone concentrations. Such a response was not seen in ad libitum fed animals; however, these animals ate very little during the test. There were no significant changes in ACTH during the light phase. These data indicate that time of day has a significant impact on the responses of the pituitary-adrenal system to food ingestion. This circadian effect may be due to the influence of the endogenous levels of ACTH/corticosterone existing at the time of food ingestion. 相似文献

Energy metabolism, oxygen consumption rate (VO2), and respiratory quotient (RQ) in mice were monitored continuously throughout 12:12-h light-dark cycles before, during, and after time-restricted feeding (RF). Mice fed ad libitum showed robust daily rhythms in both parameters: high during the dark phase and low during the light phase. The daily profile of energy metabolism in mice under daytime-only feeding was reversed at the beginning of the first fasting night. A few days after daytime-only feeding began, RF also reversed the circadian core body temperature rhythm. Moreover, RF for 6 consecutive days shifted the phases of circadian expression patterns of clock genes in liver significantly by 8-10 h. When mice were fed a high-fat (HF) diet ad libitum, the daily rhythm of RQ dampened day by day and disappeared on the sixth day of RF, whereas VO2 showed a robust daily rhythm. Mice fed HF only in the daytime had reversed VO2 and RQ rhythms. Similarly, mice fed HF only in the daytime significantly phase shifted the clock gene expression in liver, whereas ad libitum feeding with HF had no significant effect on the expression phases of liver clock genes. These results suggested that VO2 is a sensitive indicator of entrainment in the mouse liver. Moreover, physiologically, it can be determined without any surgery or constraint. On the basis of these results, we hypothesize that a change in the daily VO2 rhythm, independent of the energy source, might drive phase shifts of circadian oscillators in peripheral tissues, at least in the liver. 相似文献

Circadian rhythmic changes in blood corticosterone concentration were studied in rats after resection of the jejunum or the ileum. The rats with ideal resection showed a normal corticosterone rhythm, with a peak at the beginning of the dark period when they were fed ad libitum, and the phase of the rhythm shifted when the feeding time was restricted to a specific time of day during the light period. The rats with jejunal resection also showed a similar corticosterone rhythm, but its amplitude was lower compared to that of the rats with ideal resection. There were no differences in body weight and the circadian rhythm of blood urea concentration between two groups of rats. We conclude that the jejunum is an important site where the sense of food is received as an entraining signal for the corticosterone rhythm. 相似文献

The effects of streptozotocin induced diabetes (50 mg/Kg) on the circadian rhythms in the excretion of sodium and potassium as well as their plasma concentration rhythms were investigated. Control (C) and diabetic (D) rats were studied during a light-dark (12h:12h) cycle and fed ad libitum. Statistically significant circadian rhythms were found for sodium and potassium excretion in C rats. The orthophases of both rhythms occurred in the dark phase, the potassium one occurring before that of sodium. In D rats there is increased excretion of both sodium and potassium with the rhythmicity maintained for sodium excretion only, which has an earlier orthophase than in the C rats. Plasma sodium and potassium concentrations showed a statistically significant circadian pattern in C rats, with orthophase in the light phase. This rhythmicity only appears in plasma potassium concentration for D rats, with orthophase at the end of the dark phase. The results in diabetic rats may suggest that the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and/or tubular reabsorption rhythms are still contributing to the sodium excretory rhythm, and that the loss of the circadian rhythm in sodium plasma concentration has no influence on the sodium excretion rhythm. Nevertheless, the loss of the potassium excretion rhythm may suggest a disruption of the variations in the secretory process, as this excretion seems to be independent of the plasma potassium concentration rhythm, which is not lost in D rats. 相似文献

The effect of multiple cycles of starvation-refeeding on rat body weight and on plasma lipid concentration was studied. After 1 cycle of starvation-refeeding, the rat body weight did not change significantly; however the postprandial plasma triacylglycerol concentration decreased approximately 2-fold as compared to rats fed ad libitum. After 8 cycles of starvation-refeeding, both rat body weight and plasma triacylglycerols concentration decreased. In contrast, the plasma cholesterol (both total and HDL cholesterol) concentration did not change appreciably either after 1 or 8 cycles of starvation-refeeding as compared to control. Although the postprandial plasma triacylglycerol concentration decreased in both groups (i.e. after 1 and 8 cycles of starvation-refeeding), this phenomenon appears to last longer after 8 cycles of starvation-refeeding. The epididymal white adipose tissue weight decreased after both 1 and 8 cycles of starvation-refeeding. After 1 cycle of starvation-refeeding followed by 3, 6 and 9 days of ad libitum feeding, the epididymal white adipose tissue weight increased progressively, reaching the control value at day 9. In contrast, after 8 cycles of starvation-refeeding followed by 9 days of ad libitum feeding, the epididymal white adipose tissue weight did not reach the control value. These results suggest that dieting is associated with body and adipose tissue weight loss as well as with the decrease of plasma triacylglycerol concentration. Furthermore, our results suggest that better maintenance of low adipose tissue weight and low plasma triacylglycerol concentration may be achieved after multiple cycles of starvation-refeeding. 相似文献

In rabbits kept under 12:12 h light conditions, caecal contractions were recorded by implanted strain gauges or induction coils. In animals fed ad libitum caecal contraction frequency varied cyclically in phase with the circadian rhythm of feed intake. Both had their minimum during the time of soft faeces production. Thus all 3 functions seem to depend on the same circadian clock. The close link between caecotrophy and caecal contractions can, however, be upset by either time-restricted feeding or by fasting. 相似文献

Hepatic P450 monooxygenase activities, assessed by measurement of 7-alkoxycoumarin O-dealkylase (ACD) activities, show obvious daily fluctuations in male rats with high values during the dark period and low values during the light period. We have already confirmed that the ACD activities are controlled by the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), which is well known as the oscillator of circadian rhythm. Recently, it is reported that circadian oscillators exist not only in the SCN but also in peripheral organs. To date, it is unclear which circadian oscillators predominantly drive the daily fluctuations of hepatic ACD activities. To address this question, we examined the effects of restricted feeding, which uncouples the circadian oscillators in the liver from the central pacemaker in the SCN, on the daily fluctuations in hepatic ACD activities in male rats. Here we show that restricted feeding inverts the oscillation phase of the daily fluctuations in hepatic ACD activities. Regarding the hepatic P450 content, there were no fluctuations between the light and dark periods under ad libitum and restricted feeding conditions. Therefore, it is considered that the daily fluctuations in hepatic ACD activities are predominantly driven by the circadian factors in peripheral organs rather than by the oscillator in the SCN directly. 相似文献

Adult, ad libitum fed male Wistar rats were adapted for three weeks to standard laboratory conditions and a 12:12 h light:dark regimen (7 a.m. to 7 p.m., 7 p.m. to 7 a.m.). In January, in April, in July and in October they were decapitated at 3-hour intervals and the glucose level was determined in their blood and the glycogen concentration in their liver, skeletal muscle, heart and white and brown adipose tissue. The influence of the seasons on circadian variation of the given parameters was not the same in all the tissues. Circadian variation of the liver and heart glycogen concentration was the least affected. The liver glycogen curves attained the maximum at the beginning of the light part of the day in all the seasons except the autumn; the rhythm was present everywhere. The rhythm was not demonstrated in the heart in the winter only and except for the summer the curves attained the maximum at the end of the dark part of the day. Pronounced seasonal changes were observed in the blood glucose and skeletal muscle glycogen concentration, whose curves reached the maximum in various parts of the day and where the rhythm was absent in the autumn - and in the case of skeletal muscle in the summer as well. The glycogen concentration in the two adipose tissues displayed the greatest seasonal changes. The shape of the circadian oscillation curves and their maxima in the various seasons were very different, with absence of the rhythm in the autumn. Determination of the influence of the photoperiodic reactions and of changes in hormones and the key enzymes regulating the main metabolic routes might help to explain the basis of circaannual variations in the metabolism of the laboratory rat. 相似文献

Effects of meal timing on tumor progression in mice 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Meal timing can reset circadian clocks in peripheral tissues. We investigated the effects of such non-photic entrainment on tumor growth rate. Two experiments involved a total of 61 male B6D2F(1) mice synchronized with an alternation of 12 h of light (L) and 12 h of darkness (D) (LD12:12). Mice were randomly allocated to have access to food ad libitum, or restricted to 4 or 6 h during L or D. Rest-activity and body temperature, two circadian outputs, were monitored with an intra-peritoneal sensor. Glasgow osteosarcoma was inoculated into both flanks of each mouse ten days after meal timing onset. Before tumor inoculation, meal timing during D amplified the 24-h rhythms in rest-activity and body temperature with minimal phase alteration as compared to ad libitum feeding. Conversely, meal timing during L induced dominant 12-h or 8-h rhythmic components in activity, nearly doubled the 24-h amplitude of body temperature and shifted its acrophase (time of maximum) from approximately mid-D to approximately mid-L. Thirteen days after tumor inoculation, mean tumor weight (+/- SEM, mg) was 1503 +/- 150 in ad libitum mice, 1077 +/- 157 in mice fed during D and 577 +/- 139 in mice fed during L (ANOVA, p < 0.0001). Overall survival was prolonged in the mice fed during L (median, 17.5 days, d) as compared with those fed during D (14.5 d) or ad libitum (14 d) (Log Rank, p = 0.0035). The internal desynchronization produced by meal timing during L slowed down tumor progression, an effect possibly resulting from improved host-mediated tumor control and/or altered tumor circadian clocks. 相似文献

Young male Wistar rats of a conventional breed were kept 4 weeks in a separate room with a light: dark regimen of 12:12 h. Some were fed ad libitum (group C, the control), some were meal-fed from 8.30 to 10.30 a.m. (group A) and the others were meal-fed from 8.30 to 10.30 p.m. (group B). When adapted to the nutritional regimen the animals were decapitated at 3-hour intervals, starting at 8 a.m., and their serum and epididymal tissue non-esterified fatty acid values, their serum and liver triacylglycerol and total cholesterol levels and their serum phospholipid concentration were determined. Limitation of the period for which they had access to food at different times of the day significantly synchronized the circadian oscillations of their serum and tissue lipid levels. The most pronounced differences in the form of the antiphase position of the maxima of the curves in groups A and B, or A and C, were recorded in the oscillations of the serum and white adipose non-esterified fatty acid values, in serum triacylglycerol levels and in liver cholesterol levels. It is reasonable to assume that the synchronizing role of timed meal-feeding will be subject to the influence of seasonal factors. 相似文献

Neural sites that interact with the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) to generate rhythms of unrestricted feeding remain unknown. We used the targeted toxin, leptin conjugated to saporin (Lep-SAP), to examine the importance of leptin receptor-B (LepR-B)-expressing neurons in the arcuate nucleus (Arc) for generation of circadian feeding rhythms. Rats given Arc Lep-SAP injections were initially hyperphagic and rapidly became obese (the "dynamic phase" of weight gain). During this phase, Lep-SAP rats were arrhythmic under 12:12-h light-dark (LD) conditions, consuming 59% of their total daily intake during the daytime, compared with 36% in blank-SAP (B-SAP) controls. Lep-SAP rats were also arrhythmic in continuous dark (DD), while significant circadian feeding rhythms were detected in all B-SAP controls. Approximately 8 wk after injection, Lep-SAP rats remained obese but transitioned into a "static phase" of weight gain marked by attenuation of their hyperphagia and rate of weight gain. In this phase, Arc Lep-SAP rats exhibited circadian feeding rhythms under LD conditions, but were arrhythmic in continuous light (LL) and DD. Lep-SAP injections into the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus did not cause hyperphagia, obesity, or arrhythmic feeding in either LD or DD. Electrolytic lesion of the SCN produced feeding arrhythmia in DD but not hyperphagia or obesity. Results suggest that both Arc Lep-SAP neurons and SCN are required for generation of feeding rhythms entrained to photic cues, while also revealing an essential role for the Arc in maintaining circadian rhythms of ad libitum feeding independent of light entrainment. 相似文献

Abstract The daily variations of locomotor activity, plasma and adrenal corticosterone levels and cholesterol‐LDL were studied in male Wistar rats with food ad libitum and feeding restricted to the first 4 hours of the light phase in LD 12:12.. Under LD 12:12 (light on from 9:00 to 21:00h) rats with food ad libitum were eating and moving during the dark period and the locomotor activity clearly showed a biphasic pattern with three harmonic components. Plasma and adrenal corticosterone levels increased during the light period and reached a maximum value just before the dark period whereas the acrophase of cholesterol‐LDL is found at the beginning of the light phase. The acrophases of activity, plasma and adrenal corticosterone levels in the restricted feeding schedule rats occurred in the first three hours of lighting and the cholesterol‐LDL acrophase at the beginning of the dark phase. These results confirm a previous report that the shift of feeding to the light phase seems to cause a concomitant phase‐shift in all the variables measured. 相似文献

Adult male Wistar rats adapted to a 12:12 h light:dark regimen, fed or after a 24- or 48-h fast, were decapitated at 3-h intervals during a single day. They were deprived of food at day-time intervals ensuring that on decapitation they had fasted for the same length of time, i.e. 24 or 48 h. Thyroid hormones, insulin and glucose concentrations were determined in their serum. Fasting did not significantly affect circadian thyroxine, triiodothyronine and reverse triiodothyronine rhythms compared with the findings in fed animals; 24, but not 48 hours' fasting led to a shift in the acrophase of circadian insulin and glucose oscillations compared with fed rats. The maintenance of original circadian thyroid hormones and insulin rhythm in rats which fasted for short lengths of time testifies to a dependence of the stimulus on the time of day. 相似文献

Male SPF Wistar rats adapted to a 12:12 h light: dark regimen were irradiated at 3-hour intervals in the course of 24 h with a dose of 14.35 Gy X-rays; 24 h after irradiation or sham irradiation and starvation for the same length of time, and also in fed intact rats, tyrosine aminotransferase and tryptophan-2-3-dioxygenase activity in the liver and the serum corticosterone level were determined. Although lethal irradiation modified the given enzyme activities, it did not abolish their circadian rhythm, evidently in association with the low sensitivity in association with the low sensitivity of the liver to ionizing radiation. In irradiated animals (compared with sham-irradiated animals), the serum corticosterone concentration fell during the light part of the day and at the beginning of the dark part. 相似文献

Circadian rhythm of corticosterone in diabetic rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We proposed that the circadian rhythm of corticosterone in diabetic rats would have a different pattern than that in non-diabetic control rats. To test this hypothesis, 20 male Sprague-Dawley rats were given ad libitum access to a stock diet and housed individually in a light and temperature controlled room. Ten rats were made diabetic by two subcutaneous injections of streptozotocin. Ten rats which were not injected served as controls. Thirteen days after induction of the diabetes, tail blood samples were taken every 4 h for 24 h. Plasma corticosterone levels were significantly higher in diabetic rats than in control rats at 3 time points during the light cycle; however, concentrations were similar during the dark cycle. We speculate that diabetes may cause alterations in the steroid feedback mechanism to the hypothalamus and/or pituitary, resulting in an abnormal circadian rhythm of plasma corticosterone. 相似文献

The effects of food on biological rhythms may influence the findings of chronopharmacological studies. The present study evaluated the influence of a restricted food access during the rest (light) span of nocturnally active Wistar rats on the 24 h time organization of biological functions in terms of the circadian rhythms of temperature (T), heart rate (HR), and locomotor activity (LA) in preparation for subsequent studies aimed at evaluating the influence of timed food access on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of medications. Ten-wk-old male Wistar rats were housed under controlled 12:12 h light:dark (LD) environmental conditions. Food and water were available ad libitum, excepted during a 3 wk period of restriction. Radiotelemetry transmitters were implanted to record daily rhythms in T, HR, and LA. The study lasted 7 wk and began after a 21-d recovery span following surgery. Control baseline data were collected during the first wk (W1). The second span of 3 wk duration (W2 to W4) consisted of the restricted feeding regimen (only 3 h access to food between 11:00 and 14:00 h daily) during the L (rest span) under 12:12 h LD conditions. The third period of 3 wk duration (W5 to W7) consisted of the recovery span with ad libitium normal feeding. Weight loss in the amount of 5% of baseline was observed during W1 with stabilization of body weight thereafter during the remaining 2 wk of food restriction. The 3 h restricted food access during the L rest span induced a partial loss of circadian rhythmicity and the emergence of 12 h rhythms in T, HR, and LA. Return to ad libitum feeding conditions restored circadian rhythmicity in the manner evidenced during the baseline control span. Moreover, the MESORS and amplitudes of the T, HR, and LA 24 h patterns were significantly attenuated during food restriction (p < 0.001) and then returned to initial values during recovery. These changes may be interpreted as a masking effect, since T, HR, and LA are known to directly react to food intake. The consequences of such findings on the methods used to conduct chronokinetic studies, such as the fasting of animals the day before testing, are important since they may alter the temporal structure of the organism receiving the drug and thereby compromise findings. 相似文献

Density gradient fractionation analysis of rat metaphyseal bone was used to delineate the biorhythmic changes in bone matrix mineralization. Seventy-two 4-week-old rats were entrained to 12-hr light, 12-hr dark cycles (light, 0800-2000 hr; darkness, 2000-0800 hr) for 4 weeks. All animals were fed ad lib. on Purina laboratory rat chow and tap water. Groups of 10-12 rats were killed by cervical dislocation at 4-hr intervals during a 24-hr period, and the tibias were then biopsied and frozen in liquid N2. Metaphyseal bone was fractionated via bromoformtoluene density gradients into specific gravity fractions ranging from 1.7 to 2.8. Density gradient fractions were analyzed for concentrations of calcium and inorganic phosphorus. Chronograms indicated that the accumulation of both calcium and inorganic phosphorus into the newly forming/least-dense mineral moieties of bone (1.3-1.7 sp grav) showed a single peak in the biorhythm of the rat. A statistically significant circadian rhythm of mineralization was detected for calcium (P less than 0.001) and inorganic phosphorus (P less than 0.039), with peaks during the environmental dark span. These results suggest that the physiological phasing of bone mineralization in the light-dark synchronized rat, is similar to that previously noted for cartilage mineralization and is antiphasal to the midday peak in bone collagen synthesis. 相似文献
