REGγ regulates circadian clock by modulating BMAL1 protein stability
Abstract Endogenous clocks generate rhythms in gene expression, which facilitates the organisms to cope through periodic environmental variations in accordance with 24-h light/dark time. A core question that needs to be elucidated is how such rhythms proliferate throughout the cells and regulate the...

Abstract Endogenous clocks generate rhythms in gene expression, which facilitates the organisms to cope through periodic environmental variations in accordance with 24-h light/dark time. A core question that needs to be elucidated is how such rhythms proliferate throughout the cells and regulate the dynamic physiology. In this study, we demonstrate the role of REGγ as a new regulator of circadian clock in mice, primary MEF, and SY5Y cells. Assessment of circadian conduct reveals a difference in circadian period, wheel mode, and the ability to acclimate the external light stimulus between WT and KO littermates. Compared to WT mice, REGγ KO mice attain the phase delay behavior upon light shock at early night. During the variation of 12/12 h light/dark (LD) exposure, levels of Per1, Per2, Cry1, Clock, Bmal1, and Rorα circadian genes in suprachiasmatic nucleus are significantly higher in REGγ KO than in WT mice, concomitant with remarkable changes in BMAL1 and PER2 proteins. In cultured cells depleted of REGγ, serum shock induces early response of the circadian genes Per1 and Per2 with the cyclic rhythm maintained.
