“…Upon heat stress, the denaturation of specific thermolabile proteins leads to the dissociation of HSP chaperones from inactive HSF1/HSP complexes. Then, hyperphosphorylation, trimerization, and translocation of HSF1 occur sequentially (Rieger et al, 2005;Reinke et al, 2008;Scheff et al, 2015;Mazaira et al, 2018;Dudziuk et al, 2019;Masser et al, 2020;Guihur et al, 2022), inducing transcriptional activity of HSF1. The active HSF1 transactivators stimulate the production of HSPs by binding the heat shock elements (HSEs) on the promotor.…”

“…The active HSF1 transactivators stimulate the production of HSPs by binding the heat shock elements (HSEs) on the promotor. The resulting excessive HSPs in turn engage in the termination of HSF1 activation with the same sequestration strategy (Gomez-Pastor et al, 2018;Dudziuk et al, 2019). Independent of this molecular chaperone displacement theory, HSF1 can also be activated through different mechanisms, such as temperature-induced intrinsic structural response and other inter-molecular interactions (Hentze et al, 2016;Gomez-Pastor et al, 2018;Mazaira et al, 2018).…”

The central circadian pacemaker in the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) aligns the phase and period of autonomous molecular oscillators in peripheral cells to daily light/dark cycles via physiological, neuronal, hormonal, and metabolic signals. Among different entrainment factors, temperature entrainment has been proposed as an essential alternative for inducing and sustaining circadian rhythms in vitro. While the synchronization mechanisms for hormones such as glucocorticoids have been widely studied, little is known about the crucial role of body temperature as a systemic cue. In this work, we develop a semi-mechanistic mathematical model describing the entrainment of peripheral clocks to temperature rhythms. The model incorporates a temperature sensing-transduction cascade involving a heat shock transcription factor-1 (HSF1) and heat shock response (HSR) pathway to simulate the entrainment of clock genes. The model is used to investigate the mammalian temperature entrainment and synchronization of cells subject to temperature oscillations of different amplitudes and magnitudes and examine the effects of transitioning between temperature schedules. Our computational analyses of the system’s dynamic responses reveal that 1) individual cells gradually synchronize to the rhythmic temperature signal by resetting their intrinsic phases to achieve coherent dynamics while oscillations are abolished in the absence of temperature rhythmicity; 2) alterations in the amplitude and period of temperature rhythms impact the peripheral synchronization behavior; 3) personalized synchronization strategies allow for differential, adaptive responses to temperature rhythms. Our results demonstrate that temperature can be a potent entrainer of circadian rhythms. Therefore, in vitro systems subjected to temperature modulation can serve as a potential tool for studying the adjustment or disruption of circadian rhythms.
