Hypothalamic POMC Neurons Gate the Fear‐Feeding Trade‐Off

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hungry animals must continually arbitrate between feeding and defensive behaviors when confronted with potential threats. We show that hypothalamic POMC neurons engage CRH‐expressing stress circuits and downstream hormonal responses to coordinate this behavioral selection between competing behaviors.

Circadian synchronization between diet and gut microbiota in modulating host's health

open access: yesGut Microbes
Extensive research has established a complex relationship between the host, diet, and gut microbiota. Recent studies highlight the critical role of the host circadian clock in maintaining health.

O-GlcNAcylation of PERIOD regulates its interaction with CLOCK and timing of circadian transcriptional repression.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2019
Circadian clocks coordinate time-of-day-specific metabolic and physiological processes to maximize organismal performance and fitness. In addition to light and temperature, which are regarded as strong zeitgebers for circadian clock entrainment ...

The Input Signal Step Function (ISSF), a Standard Method to Encode Input Signals in SBML Models with Software Support, Applied to Circadian Clock Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Time-dependent light input is an important feature of computational models of the circadian clock. However, publicly available models encoded in standard representations such as the Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML) either do not encode this input ...

Melatonin Mitigates Doxorubicin‐Induced Cardiotoxicity by Targeting the USP18/PKM2 Axis Without Compromising Antitumor Efficacy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Melatonin engages MT1/MT2 receptors to suppress STAT1‐driven USP18 upregulation, thereby redirecting PKM2 ubiquitination from K33‐linked autophagic degradation toward K27‐linked nuclear translocation. This prevents PKM2‐mediated proinflammatory gene expression in the heart, alleviating doxorubicin‐induced cardiotoxicity without compromising antitumor ...

Barley Hv CIRCADIAN CLOCK ASSOCIATED 1 and Hv PHOTOPERIOD H1 Are Circadian Regulators That Can Affect Circadian Rhythms in Arabidopsis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Circadian clocks regulate many aspects of plant physiology and development that contribute to essential agronomic traits. Circadian clocks contain transcriptional feedback loops that are thought to generate circadian timing.

Blocking Honeybee Preference for Neonicotinoids by Interfering With Dopamine Signaling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Honeybees (Apis mellifera) paradoxically prefer nectar containing the harmful neonicotinoid thiamethoxam. This preference is associated with transient brain dopamine elevation during proboscis extension reflex (PER) responses and active feeding, and is reduced by the dopamine receptor antagonist fluphenazine.

Prediction of photoperiodic regulators from quantitative gene circuit models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Photoperiod sensors allow physiological adaptation to the changing seasons. The external coincidence hypothesis postulates that a light-responsive regulator is modulated by a circadian rhythm.

A UBE3A‐UTX Proteostasis‐Epigenetic Axis Governs Hypothalamic Energy Homeostasis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Ubiquitin protein ligase E3A (UBE3A) regulates hypothalamic energy homeostasis and promotes degradation of the histone demethylase UTX (KDM6A). Neuronal UBE3A loss increases susceptibility to diet‐induced obesity and is accompanied by UTX accumulation, reduced histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation, and altered endoplasmic reticulum stress‐responsive gene

A central role for ubiquitination within a circadian clock protein modification code

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2014
Circadian rhythms, endogenous cycles of about 24 h in physiology, are generated by a master clock located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus and other clocks located in the brain and peripheral tissues.
