Research Description

We have spent the past many years in exploring a broad range of circadian rhythms in mammals. Having now made some substantial discoveries and thereby clarified our future scientific goals, we are now able to narrow down to focus on specific projects for the next phase of the lab at NIBS.

1. An "A" impact of the circadian clock: Adenosine/ATP/ATPase

Our chemical screen identified an adenosine-analog (cordycepin) that may regulate the circadian phase, and demonstrated that its physiological metabolite’s target was a novel clock component RUVBL2, an AAA-type ATPase that functions as a hub of the gigantic super-complex responsible for circadian transcription. Interestingly, we have observed a cross-species, or even trans-kingdom, effect of the clock regulation by cordycepin (or its derivatives), suggesting that an evolutionarily conserved mechanism may be hidden within the phenomena we regularly examine in the lab. Generally, it is believed that the clock mechanism consists of a negative transcriptional/translational feedback loop (TTFL) which possesses a similar architecture but which comprises distinct components in various organisms. However, the administration of cordycepin in other species, including the model plant species Arabidopsis thaliana, also shift the clock phase; thus RUVBL2 may be one of only a few conserved components sitting within the transcriptional regulatory mega-complex.

2. The function and regulation of the brain clock in sleep deprivation

Disruption of sleep is widely believed to have impacts on the brain clock. For instance, people frequently complain that their mental clocks are disturbed once they experience even just a mild instance of sleep loss. Indeed, a few hormonal oscillations (such as hGH and T3/T4) are dampened after a 6 h sleep loss according to clinical reports. Since our technical development of fiber photometry enables us to monitor the brain clock in live mammals, we utilized it to measure the brain clock in sleep-deprived and sleep-rebound conditions. Unexpectedly (but not particularly surprisingly), we observed only very subtle, if any, perturbations of the circadian oscillation in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) during sleep deprivation or its aftermath. One explanation for this observation is that there may be some other brain regions which are more susceptible to the sleep perturbation. We are thus interested in understanding where these regions may be located, how sleep loss (and/or recovery) may affect their local clocks, and which biological signals may be involved. These studies may shed light to help understand the basis of sleep, which remains mysterious even after decades of intensive investigations.

3. Circadian translational medicine

We have had a long-time interest in studying human chronobiology. In the new phase of the lab, we plan to collaborate with certain hospitals in China to focus on the human clock. For instance, we have recently identified a dual-mutant PER2 that causes disrupted circadian behaviors from a family-based human genetic study (ongoing project). In addition, it has been reported that elderly people have a weak clock, and our study of mammals implies that Tibetan natives with EPAS1 mutants may also have crippled clock. Therefore, we are currently devising non-invasive methods for monitoring clock dynamics and sleep quality in humans.

Finally, our discovery of a set of compounds that regulate the clock phase and amplitude has proven their therapeutic potentials. We now aim to work with a NIBS spin-off company to pursue the treatment of jet-lag, shift-work, and possibly aging.
