    • Many physiological processes in the human body follow a 24-h circadian rhythm controlled by the circadian clock system. Light, sensed by retina, is the predominant “zeitgeber” able to synchronize the circadian rhythms to the light-dark cycles. Circadian rhythm dysfunction and sleep disorders have been associated with aging and neurodegenerative diseases including mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In the present study, we aimed at investigating the genetic variability of clock genes in AD patients compared to healthy controls from Italy. We also included a group of Italian centenarians, considered as super-controls in association studies given their extreme phenotype of successful aging. We analyzed the exon sequences of eighty-four genes related to circadian rhythms, and the most significant variants identified in this first discovery phase were further assessed in a larger independent cohort of AD patients by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry. The results identified a significant association between the rs3027178 polymorphism in the PER1 circadian gene with AD, the G allele being protective for AD. Interestingly, rs3027178 showed similar genotypic frequencies among AD patients and centenarians. These results collectively underline the relevance of circadian dysfunction in the predisposition to AD and contribute to the discussion on the role of the relationship between the genetics of age-related diseases and of longevity.

  • Dibutyl phthalate exposure disrupts conserved circadian rhythm signaling systems in Drosophila
  • Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Due to their common use as industrial plasticizers, agents in cosmetics and inclusion in skin care products, people are constantly exposed to phthalate xenobiotics. Although much research has focused on their ability to disrupt endocrine signaling, leading to developmental, reproductive and metabolic defects, how phthalates interfere with these biological functions is still unclear. Using whole transcriptome analysis, we demonstrate that exposing the genetically-tractable model system Drosophila melanogaster to the xenobiotic Dibutyl Pthalate (DBP) throughout development interferes with neuronal systems associated with vision and circadian rhythm. Of note, while DBP did not influence with eye development, it inhibited the expression of signaling systems regulating vision, including Rhodopsin 5 (Rh5) and Rhodopsin 6 (Rh6), two light-sensing G-protein coupled receptors involved in the daily resetting of circadian rhythm. Furthermore, DBP influenced the expression of genes central to circadian rhythm regulation, including vrille (vri, human NFIL3), timeless (tim, human TIMELESS), period (per, human PER3) and Pigment-dispersing factor (Pdf). Finally, we demonstrate that DBP disrupts circadian rhythm by interacting with the evolutionarily conserved nuclear receptor Hormone receptor-like in 38 (Hr38, human NR4A2), which in turn regulates Pdf expression. Our results are the first to provide comprehensive evidence that DBP interferes with the circadian rhythm system.
