Diurnal rhythm of the chromatin protein Hmgb1 in rat photoreceptors is under circadian regulation

Abstract: Hmgb1 belongs to a family of structure-specific DNA binding proteins with DNA chaperone-like properties that mediate chromatin remodeling in a wide range of nuclear processes including regulation of transcription, DNA repair, genome stability, and stress response. A diurnal oscillation of Hmgb1 at the protein level occurs in rat retinal photoreceptor cells and to a lesser extent in bipolar neurons. Expression of Hmgb1 was least at night at Zeitgeber time (ZT) 18 and maximal in the middle of the lights-on perio… Show more

“…In particular, HMGB1 was localized in photoreceptor at the nuclear periphery, and HMGB1 levels were higher in the inner nuclear layer than the outer nuclear layer as opposed to DAPI staining, which preferred to bind to heterochromatic DNA. This was consistent with the previous report 25 that HMGB1 was preferentially colocalized with euchromatin, which was often under active transcription and was stained less by DAPI. Interestingly, HMGB1 appeared to be robustly upregulated in both the photoreceptors and the other retinal cells at day 3 after RD inductions, and DAPI staining was inversely downregulated at the same time ( Figure 2b, e and h).…”

“…Previous reports have shown Hmgb1 is enriched in euchromatic regions of photoreceptor nuclei (65). However, Hmgb1 and Hmgb2 are also bound to highly heterochromatic DNA formed during mitosis (66).…”

“…Hmgb1 levels oscillate in the re nal photoreceptor cells in rats, with protein levels peaking at midday and reaching their minimum late at night [165]. Hmgb1 protein normally colocalises in the nucleus together with acetylated histone H3 (a direct acetyla on target of Clock) in rat photoreceptor cells [89,165].…”
