Abstract:
The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is the central clock controlling mammalian circadian rhythms of physiology and metabolism. The SCN is metabolically active and responds to glucose shortage to regulate photic entrainment. To determine how energy metabolism regulates the SCN, we showed that the mitochondria-associated glycolytic pathway is sensitive to glucose shortage in the rat SCN and demonstrated a glucose-sensing property of KATP channels to regulate excitability in the AVP/Kir6.2-containing SCN neurons. Our recent results further suggested that the mitochondria-fueled Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA) may also act as a glucosensor to regulate [Ca2+]i in the SCN. The glucose-sensing ability of the mitochondria-associated glycolytic pathway, KATP, and NKA may endow the SCN with multiple mechanisms to react to glucose shortage. In particular, NKA also potently regulates glutamate-evoked Ca2+ signaling and may thus play a role in the (patho)physiology of light/glutamate-induced phase shift.
