Several previous studies have attempted to examine these deleterious effects. However, the majority of these studies were performed using various injury models, including high-salt treatment and/or mineralocorticoid administration, by which the kidney changes observed were not only due to aldosterone but also due to prior injury caused by salt and hypertension. In the present study, we investigated aldosterone’s pathological effect on the kidney using a mouse model with a high level of endogenous aldosterone. We used cryptochrome-null (Cry 1, 2 DKO) mice characterized by high aldosterone levels and low plasma renin activity and observed that even under normal salt exposure conditions, these mice showed increased albumin excretion and kidney tubular injury, decreased nephrin expression and increased reactive oxygen species production in the absence of hypertension. Exposure to high salt levels exacerbated the kidney damage observed in these mice. Moreover, we noted that decreasing blood pressure without blocking aldosterone action did not provide beneficial effects to the kidney in high-salt-treated Cry 1, 2 DKO mice. Thus, our findings support the hypothesis that aldosterone has deleterious effects on the kidney independent of high-salt exposure and high blood pressure.

Joseph Takahashi, Ph.D. Professor and Chair, Department of Neuroscience [email protected] Research Statement: The long-term goals of the Takahashi laboratory are to understand the molecular and genetic basis of circadian rhythms in mammals and to utilize forward genetic approaches in the mouse as a tool for gene discovery for complex behavior. We have focused our attention in three areas: 1) identification of circadian clock genes and assignment of their function in the molecular mechanism of the circadian pacemaker; 2) analysis of central and peripheral circadian oscillators using real-time circadian reporters; and 3) identification of genes defined by mutations isolated in the large-scale mutagenesis screens we have conducted on neural and behavioral phenotypes including psychostimulant responses and contextual and cue dependent fear conditioning. Recently, we have focused on the structural biology of circadian clock proteins and on genomewide analysis of transcription factor binding and gene expression using next generation sequencing methods. A comprehensive global analysis of circadian transcription factor binding in the mouse liver has been completed in which all core components of the clock gene pathway have been interrogated. In addition, we have also analyzed the genome-wide regulation of nascent transcription, RNA polymerase II occupancy and epigenomic regulation of chromatin by the circadian clock. We have recently identified genes involved in cocaine responsiveness using forward genetic approaches. My laboratory has demonstrated a successful record of research productivity and training in circadian biology, mammalian genetics, genomics and molecular biology. 1.

    The Circadian Clock Modulates Core Steps in Long-Term Memory Formation in Aplysia

    8662 • The Journal of Neuroscience, August 23, 2006 • 26(34):8662–8671 Cellular/Molecular The Circadian Clock Modulates Core Steps in Long-Term Memory Formation in Aplysia Lisa C. Lyons, Maria Sol Collado, Omar Khabour, Charity L. Green, and Arnold Eskin Department of Biology and Biochemistry, University of Houston, Houston, Texas 77204-5001 The circadian clock modulates the induction of long-term sensitization (LTS) in Aplysia such that long-term memory formation is significantly suppressed when animals are trained at night. We investigated whether the circadian clock modulated core molecular processes necessary for memory formation in vivo by analyzing circadian regulation of basal and LTS-induced levels of phosphorylated mitogen-activated protein kinase (P-MAPK) and Aplysia CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (ApC/EBP). No basal circadian regulation occurred for P-MAPK or total MAPK in pleural ganglia. In contrast, the circadian clock regulated basal levels of ApC/EBP protein with peak levels at night, antiphase to the rhythm in LTS. Importantly, LTS training during the (subjective) day produced greater increases in P-MAPK and ApC/EBP than training at night. Thus, circadian modulation of LTS occurs, at least in part, by suppressing changes in key proteins at night. Rescue of long-term memory formation at night required both facilitation of MAPK and transcription in conjunction with LTS training, confirming that the circadian clock at night actively suppresses MAPK activation and transcription involved in memory formation. The circadian clock appears to modulate LTS at multiple levels. 5-HT levels are increased more when animals receive LTS training during the (subjective) day compared with the night, suggesting circadian modulation of 5-HT release.

DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY 15:34–41 (2002) DOI: 10.1002/da.1083 DEPRESSIVE SYMPTOMATOLOGY DIFFERENTIATES SUBGROUPS OF PATIENTS WITH SEASONAL AFFECTIVE DISORDER Namni Goel, Ph.D.,1,2,3* Michael Terman, Ph.D.,1,2 and Jiuan Su Terman, Ph.D.2 Patients with seasonal affective disorder (SAD) may vary in symptoms of their depressed winter mood state, as we showed previously for nondepressed (manic, hypomanic, hyperthymic, euthymic) springtime states [Goel et al., 1999]. Iden- tification of such differences during depression may be useful in predicting dif- ferences in treatment efficacy or analyzing the pathogenesis of the disorder. In a cross-sectional analysis, we determined whether 165 patients with Bipolar Dis- order (I, II) or Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), both with seasonal pattern, showed different symptom profiles while depressed. Assessment was by the Structured Interview Guide for the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale—Sea- sonal Affective Disorder Version (SIGH-SAD), which includes a set of items for atypical symptoms. We identified subgroup differences in SAD based on cat- egories specified for nonseasonal depression, using multivariate analysis of variance and discriminant analysis. Patients with Bipolar Disorder (I and II) were more depressed (had higher SIGH-SAD scores) and showed more psy- chomotor agitation and social withdrawal than those with MDD. Bipolar I patients had more psychomotor retardation, late insomnia, and social with- drawal than bipolar II patients. Men showed more obsessions/compulsions and suicidality than women, while women showed more weight gain and early insomnia. Whites showed more guilt and fatigability than blacks, while blacks showed more hypochondriasis and social withdrawal.

  • Single-Cell Analysis on the Biological Clock Using Microfluidic

    Single-Cell Analysis on the Biological Clock Using Microfluidic

    SINGLE-CELL ANALYSIS ON THE BIOLOGICAL CLOCK USING MICROFLUIDIC DROPLETS by ZHAOJIE DENG (Under the Direction of Leidong Mao and Jonathan Arnold) ABSTRACT Single-cell analysis has become crucial for uncovering the underlying mechanism for cell heterogeneity. Different biological questions pose different challenges for single-cell analysis. In order to answer questions like, whether a single-cell has a biological clock and how the clocks synchronize among cells to overcome the heterogeneity, continuous long-term measurement on large numbers of single-cells is required. However traditional measurement techniques usually involve measurement on millions of cells. My dissertation addresses these challenges by developing a microfluidic droplet platform capable of measuring the biological clock on >1000 Neurospora crassa single-cells for up to 10 days. The results show that in Neurospora crassa a single cell has the three major properties of a biological clock: a circadian oscillator, light entertainment, and temperature compensation and that single-cells synchronize their biological clock with each other possibly through quorum sensing.
