Housing Mice in Thermoneutrality Causes Tissue-specific Changes in Number, Identity, and Phase of Circadian-expressed mRNA Transcripts

Listed in NCBI GEO

Mice housed at room temperature (RT, 25°C) experience chronic mild cold stress compared with those housed at thermoneutrality (TN, 30°C).

Description

We hypothesized that cold stress suppresses circadian transcript expression in peripheral tissues. RNA-seq of hearts, livers, and diaphragms collected every 4 hours over 48 hours in constant darkness identified mRNA transcripts exhibiting ≈24-hour rhythms (REGs).

TN produced tissue-specific changes in REG number, identity, and phase without altering core circadian clock transcript levels. Cardiac REGs increased 4-fold, diaphragm REGs 1.5-fold, and hepatic REG identity shifted substantially. GO analysis revealed coordinated reorganization of rhythmic metabolic programs in the heart and liver.

These data demonstrate that ambient housing temperature has tissue-specific effects on the number, identity, and temporal organization of rhythmically expressed transcripts in the heart, liver, and diaphragm.
