ABSTRACT
The neuropeptides arginine vasopressin (Avp) and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (Vip) are critical for the communication and coupling of suprachiasmatic nucleus neurons, which organize daily rhythms of physiology and behavior in mammals. However, how these peptides are regulated remains uncharacterized. We found that heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein U (hnRNP U) is essential for the expression of Avp and Vip. Loss of one copy of the Hnrnpu gene resulted in fragmented locomotor activities and disrupted metabolic rhythms. Hnrnpu+/- mice were more active than wild-type mice in the daytime but more inactive at night. These phenotypes were partially rescued by microinfusion of Avp and Vip into free-moving animals. In addition, hnRNP U modulated Avp and Vip via directly binding to their promoters together with brain and muscle Arnt-like protein-1/circadian locomotor output cycles kaput heterodimers. Our work identifies hnRNP U as a novel regulator of the circadian pacemaker and provides new insights into the mechanism of rhythm output.
