[PMID: 39079402 DOI: 10.1016/j.tox.2024.153900] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2024] [Revised: 07/25/2024] [Accepted: 07/26/2024] [Indexed: 08/17/2024]
Abstract
Drug-Induced Liver Injury (DILI) and herb Induced Liver Injury (HILI) continues to pose a substantial challenge in both clinical practice and drug development, representing a grave threat to patient well-being. This comprehensive review introduces a novel perspective on DILI and HILI by thoroughly exploring the intricate microenvironment of the liver. The dynamic interplay among hepatocytes, sinusoidal endothelial cells, Kupffer cells, hepatic stellate cells, cholangiocytes, and the intricate vascular network assumes a central role in drug metabolism and detoxification. Significantly, this microenvironment is emerging as a critical determinant of susceptibility to DILI and HILI. The review delves into the multifaceted interactions within the liver microenvironment, providing valuable insights into the complex mechanisms that underlie DILI and HILI. Furthermore, we discuss potential strategies for mitigating drug-induced liver injury by targeting these influential factors, emphasizing their clinical relevance. By highlighting recent advances and future prospects, our aim is to shed light on the promising avenue of leveraging the liver microenvironment for the prevention and mitigation of DILI and HILI. This deeper understanding is crucial for advancing clinical practices and ensuring patient safety in the realm of DILI and HILI.

Abstract
Circadian rhythms influence a range of biological processes within the body, with the central clock or suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the brain synchronising peripheral clocks around the body. These clocks are regulated by external cues, the most influential being the light/dark cycle, in order to synchronise with the external day. Chrono-tailored or circadian drug delivery systems (DDS) aim to optimise drug delivery by releasing drugs at specific times of day to align with circadian rhythms within the body. Although this approach is still relatively new, it has the potential to enhance drug efficacy, minimise side effects, and improve patient compliance. Chrono-tailored DDS have been explored and implemented in various conditions, including asthma, hypertension, and cancer. This review aims to introduce the biology of circadian rhythms and provide an overview of the current research on chrono-tailored DDS, with a particular focus on immunological applications and vaccination. Finally, we draw on some of the key challenges which need to be overcome for chrono-tailored DDS before they can be translated to more widespread use in clinical practice.

Bifidobacterium adolescentis-derived hypaphorine alleviates acetaminophen hepatotoxicity by promoting hepatic Cry1 expression. J Transl Med 2024; 22:525.

Abstract
Acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury (AILI) is a pressing public health concern. Although evidence suggests that Bifidobacterium adolescentis (B. adolescentis) can be used to treat liver disease, it is unclear if it can prevent AILI. In this report, we prove that B. adolescentis significantly attenuated AILI in mice, as demonstrated through biochemical analysis, histopathology, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Based on untargeted metabolomics and in vitro cultures, we found that B. adolescentis generates microbial metabolite hypaphorine. Functionally, hypaphorine inhibits the inflammatory response and hepatic oxidative stress to alleviate AILI in mice. Transcriptomic analysis indicates that Cry1 expression is increased in APAP-treated mice after hypaphorine treatment. Overexpression of Cry1 by its stabilizer KL001 effectively mitigates liver damage arising from oxidative stress in APAP-treated mice. Using the gene expression omnibus (GEO) database, we verified that Cry1 gene expression was also decreased in patients with APAP-induced acute liver failure. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that B. adolescentis inhibits APAP-induced liver injury by generating hypaphorine, which subsequently upregulates Cry1 to decrease inflammation and oxidative stress.

Abstract
Circadian genes play an important role in the field of drug metabolism. Flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 is a well-known phase I enzyme which participates in metabolism of many exogenous and endogenous substances, especially production of trimethylamine N-oxide. Here, we aimed to decipher diurnal rhythms of flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 expression and activity, and explore the regulation mechanism by clock genes. Our results showed that its mRNA and protein exhibited robust diurnal rhythms in mouse liver and cell lines. Consistently, significant alterations were observed for in vitro microsomal N-oxidation rates of procainamide, which kept in line with its protein expression at different time in wild-type and reverse erythroblastosis virus α knockout mice. Further, flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 was negatively regulated by E4 promoter-binding protein 4 in AML12 and Hepa1-6 cells, while it was positively influenced by reverse erythroblastosis virus α and brain and muscle ARNT-like protein-1. Moreover, luciferase reporter assays and electrophoretic mobility shift assays showed E4 promoter-binding protein 4 inhibited the transcription of flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 by binding to a D-box1 element (-1606/-1594 bp), while brain and muscle ARNT-like protein-1 positively activated the transcription via direct binding to three E-boxes (-863/-858 bp, -507/-498 bp, and -115/-104 bp) in this enzyme promoter. Taken together, this study would be helpful to reveal the mechanism of clock-controlled drug metabolism and facilitate the practice of chrono-therapeutics.

Time-Dependent Differences in Vancomycin Sensitivity of Macrophages Underlie Vancomycin-Induced Acute Kidney Injury. J Pharmacol Exp Ther 2024; 388:218-227. [PMID: 38050132 DOI: 10.1124/jpet.123.001864] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 10/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/07/2023] [Indexed: 12/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Although vancomycin (VCM)-frequently used to treat drug-resistant bacterial infections-often induces acute kidney injury (AKI), discontinuation of the drug is the only effective treatment; therefore, analysis of effective avoidance methods is urgently needed. Here, we report the differences in the induction of AKI by VCM in 1/2-nephrectomized mice depending on the time of administration. Despite the lack of difference in the accumulation of VCM in the kidney between the light (ZT2) and dark (ZT14) phases, the expression of AKI markers due to VCM was observed only in the ZT2 treatment. Genomic analysis of the kidney suggested that the time of administration was involved in VCM-induced changes in monocyte and macrophage activity, and VCM had time-dependent effects on renal macrophage abundance, ATP activity, and interleukin (IL)-1β expression. Furthermore, the depletion of macrophages with clodronate abolished the induction of IL-1β and AKI marker expression by VCM administration at ZT2. This study provides evidence of the need for time-dependent pharmacodynamic considerations in the prevention of VCM-induced AKI as well as the potential for macrophage-targeted AKI therapy. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: There is a time of administration at which vancomycin (VCM)-induced renal injury is more and less likely to occur, and macrophages are involved in this difference. Therefore, there is a need for time-dependent pharmacodynamic considerations in the prevention of VCM-induced acute kidney injury as well as the potential for macrophage-targeted acute kidney injury therapy.

Abstract
Circadian rhythm oscillation and the gut microbiota play important roles in several physiological functions and pathology regulations. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the characteristics of diabetic hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) and the role of the intestinal microbiota in diabetic mice with HIRI. Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury surgery was performed at ZT0 or ZT12. The liver pathological score and the serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were analyzed to evaluate liver injury. We conducted an FMT experiment to examine the role of intestinal microbiota in diabetic mice with HIRI. The 16S rRNA gene sequencing of fecal samples was performed for microbial analysis. Our results showed that hyperglycemia aggravated HIRI in diabetic mice, but there was no diurnal variation seen in diabetic HIRI. We also demonstrated that there were significant alterations in the gut microbiota composition between the diabetic and control mice and that gut microbiota transplantation from diabetic mice had obvious harmful effects on HIRI. These findings provide some useful information for the future research of diabetic mice with HIRI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The role of circadian locomotor output cycles kaput (CLOCK) in regulating drug chronoefficacy and chronotoxicity remains elusive. Here, we aimed to uncover the impact of CLOCK and dosing time on clopidogrel efficacy and toxicity. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH The antiplatelet effect, toxicity and pharmacokinetics experiments were conducted with Clock-/- mice and wild-type mice, after gavage administration of clopidogrel at different circadian time points. The expression levels of drug-metabolizing enzymes were determined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and western blotting. Transcriptional gene regulation was investigated using luciferase reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays. KEY RESULTS The antiplatelet effect and toxicity of clopidogrel in wild-type mice showed a dosing time-dependent variation. Clock ablation reduced the antiplatelet effect of clopidogrel, but increased clopidogrel-induced hepatotoxicity, with attenuated rhythms of clopidogrel active metabolite (Clop-AM) and clopidogrel, respectively. We found that Clock regulated the diurnal variation of Clop-AM formation by modulating the rhythmic expression of CYP1A2 and CYP3A1, and altered clopidogrel chronopharmacokinetics by regulation of CES1D expression. Mechanistic studies revealed that CLOCK activated Cyp1a2 and Ces1d transcription by directly binding to the enhancer box (E-box) elements in their promoters, and promoted Cyp3a11 transcription through enhancing the transactivation activity of albumin D-site-binding protein (DBP) and thyrotroph embryonic factor (TEF). CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS CLOCK regulates the diurnal rhythmicity in clopidogrel efficacy and toxicity through regulation of CYP1A2, CYP3A11 and CES1D expression. These findings may contribute to optimizing dosing schedules for clopidogrel and may deepen understanding of the circadian clock and chronopharmacology.

[PMID: 37446793 PMCID: PMC10343525 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28135132] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2023] [Revised: 06/14/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Acrylamide (ACR) is produced under high-temperature cooking of carbohydrate-rich foods via the Maillard reaction. It has been reported that ACR has hepatic toxicity and can induce liver circadian disorder. A high fat diet (HFD) could dysregulate liver detoxification. The current study showed that administration of ACR (100 mg/kg) reduced the survival rate in HFD-fed mice, which was more pronounced when treated during the night phase than during the day phase. Furthermore, ACR (25 mg/kg) treatment could cause chronotoxicity in mice fed a high-fat diet, manifested as more severe mitochondrial damage of liver during the night phase than during the day phase. Interestingly, HFD induced a higher CYP2E1 expressions for those treated during the night phase, leading to more severe DNA damage. Meanwhile, the expression of gut tight junction proteins also significantly decreases at night phase, leading to the leakage of LPSs and exacerbating the inflammatory response at night phase. These results indicated that a HFD could induce the chronotoxicity of ACR in mice liver, which may be associated with increases in CYP2E1 expression in the liver and gut leak during the night phase.

[PMID: 37300813 DOI: 10.1080/17460441.2023.2224554] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2023] [Accepted: 06/08/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Most mammalian physiology is orchestrated by the circadian clock, including drug transport and metabolism. As a result, efficacy and toxicity of many drugs are influenced by the timing of their administration, which has led to the establishment of the field of chronopharmacology. AREAS COVERED In this review, the authors provide an overview of the current knowledge about the time-of-day dependent aspects of drug metabolism and the importance of chronopharmacological strategies for drug development. They also discuss the factors influencing rhythmic drug pharmacokinetic including sex, metabolic diseases, feeding rhythms, and microbiota, that are often overlooked in the context of chronopharmacology. This article summarizes the involved molecular mechanisms and functions and explains why these parameters should be considered in the process of drug discovery. EXPERT OPINION Although chronomodulated treatments have shown promising results, particularly for cancer, the practice is still underdeveloped due to the associated high cost and time investments. However, implementing this strategy at the preclinical stage could offer a new opportunity to translate preclinical discoveries into successful clinical treatments.

Abstract
Misalignment of the circadian clock compared to environmental cues causes circadian desynchrony, which is pervasive in humans. Clock misalignment can lead to various pathologies including obesity and diabetes, both of which are associated with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma - a devastating cancer with an 80% five-year mortality rate. Although circadian desynchrony is associated with an increased risk of several solid-organ cancers, the correlation between clock misalignment and pancreas cancer is unclear. Using a chronic jetlag model, we investigated the impact of clock misalignment on pancreas cancer initiation in mice harboring a pancreas-specific activated Kras mutation. We found that chronic jetlag accelerated the development of pancreatic cancer precursor lesions, with a concomitant increase in precursor lesion grade. Cell-autonomous knock-out of the clock in pancreatic epithelial cells of Kras-mutant mice demonstrated no acceleration of precursor lesion formation, indicating non-cell-autonomous clock dysfunction was responsible for the expedited tumor development. Therefore, we applied single-cell RNA sequencing over time and identified fibroblasts as the cell population manifesting the greatest clock-dependent changes, with enrichment of specific cancer-associated fibroblast pathways due to circadian misalignment.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 219:115158. [PMID: 36580988 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2022.115158] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2022] [Revised: 08/29/2022] [Accepted: 12/24/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Occupational workers and residents near petrochemical industry facilities are exposed to multiple contaminants on a daily basis. However, little is known about the co-exposure effects of different pollutants based on biotransformation. The study examined benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), a representative polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon related to the petrochemical industry, to investigate changes in toxicity and co-exposure mechanism associated with different monoaromatic hydrocarbons (MAHs). A central composite design method was used to simulate site co-exposure scenarios to reveal biotransformation of BaP when co-exposed with benzene, toluene, chlorobenzene, or nitrobenzene in microsome systems. BaP metabolism depended on MAH concentration, and association of MAH with microsome concentration/incubation time. Particularly, MAH co-exposure negatively affected BaP glucuronidation, an important phase Ⅱ detoxification process. BaP metabolite intensities decreased to 43%-80% for OH-BaP-G, and 32%-71% for diOH-BaP-G in co-exposure system with MAHs, compared with control group. Furthermore, glucuronidation was affected by competitive and time-dependent inhibition. Co-exposure significantly decreased gene expression of UGT 1A10 and BCRP/ABCG2 in HepG2 cells, which are involved in BaP detoxification through metabolism and transmembrane transportation. Therefore, human co-exposure to multiple contaminants may deteriorate toxic effects of these chemicals by disturbing metabolic pathways. This study provides a reference for assessing toxic effects and co-exposure risks of pollutants.

Abstract
Biomedical research on mammals has traditionally neglected females, raising the concern that some scientific findings may generalize poorly to half the population. Although this lack of sex inclusion has been broadly documented, its extent within circadian genomics remains undescribed. To address this gap, we examined sex inclusion practices in a comprehensive collection of publicly available transcriptome studies on daily rhythms. Among 148 studies having samples from mammals in vivo, we found strong underrepresentation of females across organisms and tissues. Overall, only 23 of 123 studies in mice, 0 of 10 studies in rats, and 9 of 15 studies in humans included samples from females. In addition, studies having samples from both sexes tended to have more samples from males than from females. These trends appear to have changed little over time, including since 2016, when the US National Institutes of Health began requiring investigators to consider sex as a biological variable. Our findings highlight an opportunity to dramatically improve representation of females in circadian research and to explore sex differences in daily rhythms at the genome level.

Environ Health Prev Med 2023; 28:78.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate diurnal variations in copper-induced hepatic toxicity and the molecular mechanisms underlying this chronotoxicity. METHODS Male C57BL/6J mice were intraperitoneally injected with copper chloride (CuCl2) at zeitgeber time 2 (ZT2) or 14 (ZT14), twice per week for 5 or 8 weeks. Seventy-two hours after the final CuCl2 injection, the mice were euthanized, and plasma samples were collected. The livers and kidneys were collected and weighed. In vitro experiments were performed to assess cell viability and fluctuations in clock gene expression levels in Hepa1-6 cells after CuCl2 treatment. We examined copper homeostasis- and apoptosis-related genes under clock genes overexpression. RESULTS Repeated CuCl2 administration for 8 weeks resulted in more severe toxicity at ZT14 compared to ZT2. CuCl2 administration at ZT14 elevated plasma aspartate aminotransferase, hepatic tumor necrosis factor-α, and interleukin-6 for 5 weeks, whereas the toxic effects of CuCl2 administration at ZT2 were weaker. Moreover, CuCl2 treatment inhibited Hepa1-6 cell viability in a dose-dependent manner. We observed increased expression of three clock genes (Ciart, Cry2, and Per1) after CuCl2 treatment. Among them, overexpression of Cry2 and Per1 accelerated CuCl2-induced inhibition of Hepa1-6 cell viability. Moreover, we found that the overexpression of Cry2 and Per1 regulates cleaved caspase-3 by modulating the copper transporter genes ATP7B and CTR1. CONCLUSION These results suggest that CuCl2-induced diurnal toxicity is associated with Cry2 and Per1 expression through the regulation of copper transporter genes in mice.

Abstract
Dependence of pharmacokinetics and drug effects (efficacy and toxicity) on dosing time has long been recognized. However, significant progress has only recently been made in our understanding of circadian rhythms and their regulation on drug pharmacokinetics, efficacy and toxicity. This review will cover the relevant literature and a series of publications from our work summarizing the effects of circadian rhythms on drug pharmacokinetics, and propose that the influence of circadian rhythms on pharmacokinetics are ultimately translated into therapeutic effects and side effects of drugs. Evidence suggests that daily rhythmicity in expression of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters necessary for drug ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion) are key factors determining circadian pharmacokinetics. Newly discovered mechanisms for circadian control of the enzymes and transporters are covered. We also discuss how the rhythms of drug-processing proteins are translated into circadian pharmacokinetics and drug chronoefficacy/chronotoxicity, which has direct implications for chronotherapy. More importantly, we will present perspectives on the challenges that are still needed for a breakthrough in translational research. In addition, knowledge of the circadian influence on drug disposition has provided new possibilities for novel pharmacological strategies. Careful application of pharmacokinetics-based chronotherapy strategies can improve efficacy and reduce toxicity. Circadian rhythm-mediated metabolic and transport strategies can also be implemented to design drugs.

Abstract
Circadian rhythms are characterized as oscillations that fluctuate based on a 24h cycle and are responsible for regulation of physiological functions. While the internal clock synchronizes gene expression using external cues like light, a similar synchronization can be induced in vitro by incubating the cells with an increased percentage of serum followed by its rapid removal. Previous studies have suggested that synchronization of HepG2 cell line induced the rhythmic expression of drug metabolizing enzymes (DME) most specifically the cytochrome P450 enzymes. However, there is a lack of evidence demonstrating the influence of 3D microenvironment on the rhythmicity of these genes. To understand this interplay, gene expression of the circadian machinery and CYP450s were compared using the model human hepatocarcinoma cell line, HepG2. Upon serum shock synchronization, gene and protein expression of core clock regulators was assessed and rhythmic expression of these genes was demonstrated. Further insight into the interrelations between various gene pairs was obtained using statistical analysis. Using RNA sequencing, an in-depth understanding of the widespread effects of circadian regulation on genes involved in metabolic processes in the liver was obtained. This study aids in the better understanding of chronopharmacokinetic events in humans using physiologically relevant 3D culture systems. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
Recent studies on pharmaceuticals have revealed the direct and indirect mechanisms that link human gut microbiome to xenobiotic biotransformation. Though environmental contaminants compose a vital portion of xenobiotics and share overlapping biotransformation pathways with gut microbial metabolites, the possible interplay between gut microbiome and biotransformation of environmental contaminants remains obscure. This study utilized bisphenol A (BPA) and p-cresol as model compounds to explore whether gut microbial metabolites could affect environmental phenol metabolism on both in vitro and in vivo models. We have observed some distinct biotransformation behavior, where in vivo mouse examination using 171 & 1972 μg/kg bw p-cresol injection exhibited enhancing effect on BPA metabolism, but p-cresol was found as a strong inhibitor from 10/5 μM in a non-competitive pattern for BPA biotransformation in in vitro models of liver S9 fractions and HepG2 cell line, respectively. A further investigation revealed that the expression of biotransformation enzyme genes including Ugt1a1, Ugt2b1, or Sult1a1 of p-cresol treated mice were dynamically induced. In silico docking approach was also utilized to explore the non-competitive inhibition mechanism by estimating the binding affinity of key enzyme SULT 1A1. Overall, our results provided a novel insight into the biotransformation interaction between gut microbiome and environmental contaminants.

Abstract
The process of tissue regeneration occurs in a developmentally timed manner, yet the role of circadian timing is not understood. Here, we identify a role for the adult muscle stem cell (MuSC)-autonomous clock in the control of muscle regeneration following acute ischemic injury. We observed greater muscle repair capacity following injury during the active/wake period as compared with the inactive/rest period in mice, and loss of Bmal1 within MuSCs leads to impaired muscle regeneration. We demonstrate that Bmal1 loss in MuSCs leads to reduced activated MuSC number at day 3 postinjury, indicating a failure to properly expand the myogenic precursor pool. In cultured primary myoblasts, we observed that loss of Bmal1 impairs cell proliferation in hypoxia (a condition that occurs in the first 1-3 d following tissue injury in vivo), as well as subsequent myofiber differentiation. Loss of Bmal1 in both cultured myoblasts and in vivo activated MuSCs leads to reduced glycolysis and premature activation of prodifferentiation gene transcription and epigenetic remodeling. Finally, hypoxic cell proliferation and myofiber formation in Bmal1-deficient myoblasts are restored by increasing cytosolic NAD+ Together, we identify the MuSC clock as a pivotal regulator of oxygen-dependent myoblast cell fate and muscle repair through the control of the NAD+-driven response to injury.

The gut microbial metabolite, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylpropionic acid, alleviates hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury via mitigation of macrophage pro-inflammatory activity in mice. Acta Pharm Sin B 2022; 12:182-196.

Abstract
Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury (HIRI) is a serious complication that occurs following shock and/or liver surgery. Gut microbiota and their metabolites are key upstream modulators of development of liver injury. Herein, we investigated the potential contribution of gut microbes to HIRI. Ischemia/reperfusion surgery was performed to establish a murine model of HIRI. 16S rRNA gene sequencing and metabolomics were used for microbial analysis. Transcriptomics and proteomics analysis were employed to study the host cell responses. Our results establish HIRI was significantly increased when surgery occurred in the evening (ZT12, 20:00) when compared with the morning (ZT0, 08:00); however, antibiotic pretreatment reduced this diurnal variation. The abundance of a microbial metabolite 3,4-dihydroxyphenylpropionic acid was significantly higher in ZT0 when compared with ZT12 in the gut and this compound significantly protected mice against HIRI. Furthermore, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylpropionic acid suppressed the macrophage pro-inflammatory response in vivo and in vitro. This metabolite inhibits histone deacetylase activity by reducing its phosphorylation. Histone deacetylase inhibition suppressed macrophage pro-inflammatory activation and diminished the diurnal variation of HIRI. Our findings revealed a novel protective microbial metabolite against HIRI in mice. The potential underlying mechanism was at least in part, via 3,4-dihydroxyphenylpropionic acid-dependent immune regulation and histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition in macrophages.

Abstract
A paradigm shift in the human chronotoxicity of xenobiotics would study two-sided desynchronized phenomena of interfacial interactions between cyclic or periodic environmental insults and the endogenous response and recovery profile. These systems-based networks are under the influence of well-synchronized biological clocks and their metabolic regulators. This perspective argues in favor of addressing the concept of synchronization in studies involving critical life windows of susceptibility, or circadian rhythms, or 24-hour (periodic) diurnal rhythms and answering whether these disruptions in synchronization would affect response and recovery or disease phenotypes associated with environmental insults, e.g., xenobiotics. Synchronization or synchrony is defined as the totality of elements that appear during the same time period within a system, including the network of interactions between the system's elements. Desynchronized interfaces during critical life windows or in time-repeated exposure events would likely lead to initiating a cascade of adverse health effects associated with differentiated disease phenotypes.

Abstract
Aging is associated with impairments in the circadian rhythms, and with energy deregulation that affects multiple metabolic pathways. The goal of this study is to unravel the complex interactions among aging, metabolism, and the circadian clock. We seek to identify key factors that inform the liver circadian clock of cellular energy status and to reveal the mechanisms by which variations in food intake may disrupt the clock. To address these questions, we develop a comprehensive mathematical model that represents the circadian pathway in the mouse liver, together with the insulin/IGF-1 pathway, mTORC1, AMPK, NAD+, and the NAD+ -consuming factor SIRT1. The model is age-specific and can simulate the liver of a young mouse or an aged mouse. Simulation results suggest that the reduced NAD+ and SIRT1 bioavailability may explain the shortened circadian period in aged rodents. Importantly, the model identifies the dosing schedules for maximizing the efficacy of anti-aging medications.

Abstract
The circadian clock drives extensive temporal gene expression programs controlling daily changes in behavior and physiology. In mouse liver, transcription factors dynamics, chromatin modifications, and RNA Polymerase II (PolII) activity oscillate throughout the 24-hour (24h) day, regulating the rhythmic synthesis of thousands of transcripts. Also, 24h rhythms in gene promoter-enhancer chromatin looping accompany rhythmic mRNA synthesis. However, how chromatin organization impinges on temporal transcription and liver physiology remains unclear. Here, we applied time-resolved chromosome conformation capture (4C-seq) in livers of WT and arrhythmic Bmal1 knockout mice. In WT, we observed 24h oscillations in promoter-enhancer loops at multiple loci including the core-clock genes Period1, Period2 and Bmal1. In addition, we detected rhythmic PolII activity, chromatin modifications and transcription involving stable chromatin loops at clock-output gene promoters representing key liver function such as glucose metabolism and detoxification. Intriguingly, these contacts persisted in clock-impaired mice in which both PolII activity and chromatin marks no longer oscillated. Finally, we observed chromatin interaction hubs connecting neighbouring genes showing coherent transcription regulation across genotypes. Thus, both clock-controlled and clock-independent chromatin topology underlie rhythmic regulation of liver physiology.

Abstract
The circadian clock and feeding rhythms are both important regulators of rhythmic gene expression in the liver. To further dissect the respective contributions of feeding and the clock, we analyzed differential rhythmicity of liver tissue samples across several conditions. We developed a statistical method tailored to compare rhythmic liver messenger RNA (mRNA) expression in mouse knockout models of multiple clock genes, as well as PARbZip output transcription factors (Hlf/Dbp/Tef). Mice were exposed to ad libitum or night-restricted feeding under regular light-dark cycles. During ad libitum feeding, genetic ablation of the core clock attenuated rhythmic-feeding patterns, which could be restored by the night-restricted feeding regimen. High-amplitude mRNA expression rhythms in wild-type livers were driven by the circadian clock, but rhythmic feeding also contributed to rhythmic gene expression, albeit with significantly lower amplitudes. We observed that Bmal1 and Cry1/2 knockouts differed in their residual rhythmic gene expression. Differences in mean expression levels between wild types and knockouts correlated with rhythmic gene expression in wild type. Surprisingly, in PARbZip knockout mice, the mean expression levels of PARbZip targets were more strongly impacted than their rhythms, potentially due to the rhythmic activity of the D-box-repressor NFIL3. Genes that lost rhythmicity in PARbZip knockouts were identified to be indirect targets. Our findings provide insights into the diurnal transcriptome in mouse liver as we identified the differential contributions of several core clock regulators. In addition, we gained more insights on the specific effects of the feeding-fasting cycle.

Abstract
Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are endocrine-active chemical pollutants that disrupt reproductive, neuroendocrine, cardiovascular and metabolic health across species. The circadian clock is a transcriptional oscillator responsible for entraining 24-hour rhythms of physiology, behavior and metabolism. Extensive bidirectional cross talk exists between circadian and endocrine systems and circadian rhythmicity is present at all levels of endocrine control, from synthesis and release of hormones, to sensitivity of target tissues to hormone action. In mammals, a range of hormones directly alter clock gene expression and circadian physiology via nuclear receptor (NR) binding and subsequent genomic action, modulating physiological processes such as nutrient and energy metabolism, stress response, reproductive physiology and circadian behavioral rhythms. The potential for EDCs to perturb circadian clocks or circadian-driven physiology is not well characterized. For this reason, we explore evidence for parallel endocrine and circadian disruption following EDC exposure across species. In the reviewed studies, EDCs dysregulated core clock and circadian rhythm network gene expression in brain and peripheral organs, and altered circadian reproductive, behavioral and metabolic rhythms. Circadian impacts occurred in parallel to endocrine and metabolic alterations such as impaired fertility and dysregulated metabolic and energetic homeostasis. Further research is warranted to understand the nature of interaction between circadian and endocrine systems in mediating physiological effects of EDC exposure at environmental levels.

Abstract
The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) acts as a master pacemaker driving circadian behavior and physiology. Although the SCN is small, it is composed of many cell types, making it difficult to study the roles of particular cells. Here we develop bioluminescent circadian reporter mice that are Cre dependent, allowing the circadian properties of genetically defined populations of cells to be studied in real time. Using a Color-Switch PER2::LUCIFERASE reporter that switches from red PER2::LUCIFERASE to green PER2::LUCIFERASE upon Cre recombination, we assess circadian rhythms in two of the major classes of peptidergic neurons in the SCN: AVP (arginine vasopressin) and VIP (vasoactive intestinal polypeptide). Surprisingly, we find that circadian function in AVP neurons, not VIP neurons, is essential for autonomous network synchrony of the SCN and stability of circadian rhythmicity.

Abstract
Organs-on-chips (OoCs), also known as microphysiological systems or 'tissue chips' (the terms are synonymous), have attracted substantial interest in recent years owing to their potential to be informative at multiple stages of the drug discovery and development process. These innovative devices could provide insights into normal human organ function and disease pathophysiology, as well as more accurately predict the safety and efficacy of investigational drugs in humans. Therefore, they are likely to become useful additions to traditional preclinical cell culture methods and in vivo animal studies in the near term, and in some cases replacements for them in the longer term. In the past decade, the OoC field has seen dramatic advances in the sophistication of biology and engineering, in the demonstration of physiological relevance and in the range of applications. These advances have also revealed new challenges and opportunities, and expertise from multiple biomedical and engineering fields will be needed to fully realize the promise of OoCs for fundamental and translational applications. This Review provides a snapshot of this fast-evolving technology, discusses current applications and caveats for their implementation, and offers suggestions for directions in the next decade.

Abstract
Over the last few decades, intestinal microbial communities have been considered to play a vital role in host liver health. Acute liver injury (ALI) is the manifestation of sudden hepatic injury and arises from a variety of causes. The studies of dysbiosis in gut microbiota provide new insight into the pathogenesis of ALI. However, the relationship of gut microbiota and ALI is not well understood, and the contribution of gut microbiota to ALI has not been well characterized. In this chapter, we integrate several major pathogenic factors in ALI with the role of gut microbiota to stress the significance of gut microbiota in prevention and treatment of ALI.

Abstract
The importance of drug dosing time in pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and toxicity is receiving increasing attention from the scientific community. In spite of mounting evidence that circadian oscillations affect drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME), there remain many unanswered questions in this field and, occasionally, conflicting experimental results. Such data arise not only from translational difficulties caused by interspecies differences but also from variability in study design and a lack of understanding of how the circadian clock affects physiological factors that strongly influence ADME, namely, the expression and activity of drug transporters. Hence, the main goal of this review is to provide an updated analysis of the role of the circadian rhythm in drug absorption, distribution across blood-tissue barriers, metabolism in hepatic and extra-hepatic tissues, and hepatobiliary and renal excretion. It is expected that the research suggestions proposed here will contribute to a tissue-targeted and time-targeted pharmacotherapy.

Abstract
While there is considerable evidence about sex-related differences between men and women in drug metabolism, efficacy and safety of frequently prescribed drugs such as analgesics, tranquillizers, statins and beta-blockers, clinicians' awareness of the implications on dosing and adverse event monitoring in routine practice is inadequate. Some drugs are more effective in men than women (e.g. ibuprofen) or vice versa (e.g. opioids, benzodiazepine), typically owing to pharmacodynamic causes. The 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor 3 antagonist alosetron is approved for women only since it largely lacks efficacy in men. For statins, equal efficacy was demonstrated in secondary prevention of cardiovascular events, but primary prevention is still under debate. For some drugs (e.g. paracetamol, metoprolol), women are at significantly higher risk of adverse effects. Therefore, considering sex-specific features in clinical trials and therapeutic guidelines is warranted to ensure efficacy and safety of medicines.

Abstract
Flavin-containing monooxygenase 5 (FMO5) is a phase I enzyme that plays an important role in xenobiotic metabolism. Here, we aimed to characterize diurnal rhythms of Fmo5 expression and activity in mouse liver and to investigate the potential roles of clock genes (Bmal1, Rev-erbα, and E4bp4) in the generation of diurnal rhythms. Fmo5 mRNA and protein showed robust diurnal rhythms, with peak values at zeitgeber time (ZT) 10/14 and trough values at ZT2/22 in mouse liver. Consistently, a diurnal rhythm was observed for in vitro microsomal Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of pentoxifylline (PTX), a specific reaction catalyzed by Fmo5. Pharmacokinetic studies revealed a more extensive Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of PTX at dosing time of ZT14 than at ZT2, consistent with the diurnal pattern of Fmo5 protein. Fmo5 expression was downregulated and its rhythm was blunted in Bmal1 -/- and Rev-erbα -/- mice. Positive regulation of Fmo5 by Bmal1 and Rev-erbα was confirmed in primary mouse hepatocytes and/or Hepa1-6 cells. Furthermore, Fmo5 expression was upregulated and its rhythm was attenuated in E4bp4 -/- mice. Negative regulation of Fmo5 by E4bp4 was validated using primary mouse hepatocytes. Combined luciferase reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays demonstrated that Bmal1 (a known Rev-erbα activator) activated Fmo5 transcription via direct binding to an E-box (-1822/-1816 bp) in the promoter, whereas E4bp4 (a known Rev-erbα target gene) inhibited Fmo5 transcription by binding to two D-boxes (-1726/-1718 and -804/-796 bp). In conclusion, circadian clock genes control diurnal expression of Fmo5 through transcriptional actions on E-box and D-box cis-elements. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Hepatic Fmo5 displayed diurnal rhythmicities in expression and activity in mice. We uncovered the molecular mechanism by which the rhythmic Fmo5 expression was generated. Fmo5 promoter presents E-box and D-box binding elements for transcriptional actions from circadian clock proteins such as Bmal1, E4bp4, and Dbp. These findings have implications for understanding clock-controlled drug metabolism and for facilitating the practice of chronotherapeutics.

Abstract
The principal circadian pacemaker in mammals, the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), expresses a number of neuropeptides that facilitate intercellular synchrony, helping to generate coherent outputs to peripheral clocks throughout the body. In particular, arginine vasopressin (AVP)- and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP)-expressing neurons have been recognized as crucial subpopulations within the SCN and have thus been the focus of many chronobiological studies. Here, we analyze the neuropeptide expression of 2 popular transgenic mouse strains commonly used to direct or restrict Cre-mediated recombination to AVP- and VIP-ergic neurons. The Avp-IRES2-Cre (JAX #023530) and Vip-IRES-Cre (JAX #010908) "driver" mouse strains express the Cre recombinase under the control of the endogenous Avp or Vip gene, respectively, allowing scientists either to ablate their gene of interest or to overexpress a transgene in a cell type-specific manner. Although these are potentially very powerful tools for chronobiologists and other scientists studying AVP- and VIP-ergic neurons, we found that neuropeptide expression in these mice is significantly decreased when an IRES(2)-Cre cassette is inserted downstream of the neuropeptide-encoding gene locus. The impact of IRES(2)-Cre cassette insertion on neuropeptide expression may be a confounding factor in many experimental designs. Our findings suggest that extreme caution must be exercised when using these mouse models to avoid misinterpretation of empirical results.

Abstract
The cochlea possesses a robust circadian clock machinery that regulates auditory function. How the cochlear clock is influenced by the circadian system remains unknown. Here, we show that cochlear rhythms are system driven and require local Bmal1 as well as central input from the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN). SCN ablations disrupted the circadian expression of the core clock genes in the cochlea. Because the circadian secretion of glucocorticoids (GCs) is controlled by the SCN and GCs are known to modulate auditory function, we assessed their influence on circadian gene expression. Removal of circulating GCs by adrenalectomy (ADX) did not have a major impact on core clock gene expression in the cochlea. Rather it abolished the transcription of clock-controlled genes involved in inflammation. ADX abolished the known differential auditory sensitivity to day and night noise trauma and prevented the induction of GABA-ergic and glutamate receptors mRNA transcripts. However, these improvements were unrelated to changes at the synaptic level, suggesting other cochlear functions may be involved. Due to this circadian regulation of noise sensitivity by GCs, we evaluated the actions of the synthetic glucocorticoid dexamethasone (DEX) at different times of the day. DEX was effective in protecting from acute noise trauma only when administered during daytime, when circulating glucocorticoids are low, indicating that chronopharmacological approaches are important for obtaining optimal treatment strategies for hearing loss. GCs appear as a major regulator of the differential sensitivity to day or night noise trauma, a mechanism likely involving the circadian control of inflammatory responses.

Abstract
Hypaconitine is an active and highly toxic constituent derived from Aconitum species. Here we aimed to determine the chronotoxicity of hypaconitine in mice, and to investigate a potential role of metabolism in hypaconitine chronotoxicity. Cardiac toxicity was assessed by measuring CK (creatine kinase) and LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) levels after hypaconitine administration to wild-type and Bmal1-/- (a clock disrupted model) mice at different times of day. The mRNA and protein levels of Cyp3a11 in mouse livers were determined by qPCR and western blotting, respectively. In vitro metabolism was assessed using liver microsomes. Pharmacokinetic study of hypaconitine was performed with wild-type mice. We observed injection time-dependent toxicity (i.e., a more severe toxicity during the light phase than the dark phase) for hypaconitine in mice. The chronotoxicity was attributed to a difference in systemic exposure of hypaconitine caused by time of day-dependent metabolism. Furthermore, circadian metabolism of hypaconitine was accounted for by the diurnal expression of Cyp3a11, a major enzyme for hypaconitine detoxification in the liver. Moreover, Bmal1 ablation in mice abolished the daily rhythm of Cyp3a11 expression and abrogated the time-dependency of hypaconitine toxicity. In conclusion, circadian Cyp3a11 metabolism contributed to chronotoxicity of hypaconitine in mice. This metabolism-based chronotoxicity would facilitate the formulation of best timing for drug administration.

Abstract
Introduction: The ratio of Ce3+/Ce4+ in their structure confers unique functions on cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2NPs) containing rare earth elements in scavenging free radicals and protecting against oxidative damage. The potential of CeO2NPs to protect testosterone synthesis in primary mouse Leydig cells during exposure to 1,800 MHz radiofrequency (RF) radiation was examined in vitro. Methods: Leydig cells were treated with different concentrations of CeO2NPs to identify the optimum concentration for cell proliferation. The cells were pretreated with the optimum dose of CeO2NPs for 24 hrs and then exposed to 1,800 MHz RF at a power density of 200.27 µW/cm2 (specific absorption rate (SAR), 0.116 W/kg) for 1 hr, 2 hrs, or 4 hrs. The medium was used to measure the testosterone concentration. The cells were collected to determine the antioxidant indices (catalase [CAT], malondialdehyde [MDA], and total antioxidant capacity [T-AOC]), and the mRNA expression of the testosterone synthase genes (Star, Cyp11a1, and Hsd-3β) and clock genes (Clock, Bmal1, and Rorα). Results: Our preliminary result showed that 128 μg/mL CeO2NPs was the optimum dose for cell proliferation. Cells exposed to RF alone showed reduced levels of testosterone, T-AOC, and CAT activities, increased MDA content, and the downregulated genes expression of Star, Cyp11a1, Hsd-3β, Clock, Bmal1, and Rorα. Pretreatment of the cells with 128 μg/mL CeO2NPs for 24 hrs followed by RF exposure significantly increased testosterone synthesis, upregulated the expression of the testosterone synthase and clock genes, and increased the resistance to oxidative damage in Leydig cells compared with those in cells exposed to RF alone. Conclusion: Exposure to 1,800 MHz RF had adverse effects on testosterone synthesis, antioxidant levels, and clock gene expression in primary Leydig cells. Pretreatment with CeO2NPs prevented the adverse effects on testosterone synthesis induced by RF exposure by regulating their antioxidant capacity and clock gene expression in vitro. Further studies of the mechanism underlying the protective function of CeO2NPs against RF in the male reproductive system are required.

Abstract
The intestinal exporter MRP2 plays an important role in disposition and elimination of a wide range of drugs. Here, we aimed to clarify the impact of circadian clock on intestinal MRP2, and to determine the molecular mechanisms for generation of diurnal MRP2 expression. Methods: The regulatory effects of Bmal1 on intestinal MRP2 expression were assessed using intestine-specific Bmal1 knockout (Bmal1iKO ) mice and colon cancer cells. The relative mRNA and protein levels were determined by qPCR and Western blotting, respectively. Everted gut sac, cell viability and in situ intestinal perfusion experiments were performed to evaluate intestinal efflux of the MRP2 substrate methotrexate (MTX). Toxicity and pharmacokinetic experiments were performed with Bmal1iKO mice and control littermates (Bmal1fl/fl mice) after oral gavage of MTX. Transcriptional gene regulation was investigated using luciferase reporter, mobility shift and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays. Results: Bmal1iKO mice were generated by inter-crossing the mice carrying a Bmal1 exon 8 floxed allele (Bmal1fl/fl ) with Villin-Cre mice. Intestinal MRP2 expression exhibited a diurnal oscillation in Bmal1fl/fl mice with a zenith value at ZT6. Bmal1 ablation caused reductions in Mrp2 mRNA and protein levels [as well as in transport activity (measured by MTX)], and blunted their diurnal rhythms. Intestinal ablation of Bmal1 abrogated circadian time-dependency of MTX pharmacokinetics and toxicity. Bmal1/BMAL1 regulation of rhythmic Mrp2/MRP2 expression was also confirmed in the colon cancer CT26 and Caco-2 cells. Based on a combination of luciferase reporter, mobility shift and ChIP assays, we found that Dbp activated and E4bp4 repressed Mrp2 transcription via specific binding to a same D-box (-100/-89 bp) element in promoter region. Further, Bmal1 directly activated the transcription of Dbp and Rev-erbα through the E-boxes, whereas it negatively regulated E4bp4 via the transcriptional repressor Rev-erbα. Positive regulation of Mrp2 by Rev-erbα was also observed, and attained through modulation of E4bp4. Conclusion: Bmal1 coordinates temporal expressions of DBP (a MRP2 activator), REV-ERBα (an E4BP4 repressor) and E4BP4 (a MRP2 repressor), generating diurnal MRP2 expression.

Abstract
Recently, by utilizing conventional and tamoxifen inducible Bmal1 (Brain and muscle Arnt-like protein 1) knockout mice, we found that delaying the loss of circadian rhythms to adulthood attenuates the impact on general integrity and survival at least under 12h light/12h dark conditions (LD). To understand further the contribution of Bmal1 in post-natal life under conditions of circadian disruption, we subjected inducible knockout mice (KO) and their littermate controls (Ctrl) to forced desynchrony protocols including cycles with non-24h periods, randomized light/dark cycles, and jet lag, and monitored their locomotor activity using radiotelemetry. Under these conditions, control mice cannot be entrained, as reflected by their maintenance of circadian behavior irrespective of schedules. By contrast, KO mice displayed higher activity levels in the dark phases of most cycles. Under a 3h light/3h dark regime, Ctrls displayed higher activity levels in the dark phases of all cycles although there were still obvious circadian rhythms, suggesting that an ultradian mechanism is also involved. Insulin sensitivity was markedly reduced by disrupted light schedules as expected in Ctrls, but not in the KOs. Thus, Bmal1 deletion in adult mice facilitates adaptation to new light/dark schedules and protects from insulin resistance induced by circadian disruption.

In rodents, the preovulatory LH surge is temporally gated, but the timing cue is unknown. Estrogen primes neurons in the anteroventral periventricular nucleus (AVPV) to secrete kisspeptin, which potently activates GnRH neurons to release GnRH, eliciting a surge of LH to induce ovulation. Deletion of the circadian clock gene Bmal1 results in infertility. Previous studies have found that Bmal1 knockout (KO) females do not display an LH surge at any time of day. We sought to determine whether neuroendocrine disruption contributes to the absence of the LH surge. Because Kiss1 expression in the AVPV is critical for regulating ovulation, we hypothesized that this population is disrupted in Bmal1 KO females. However, we found an appropriate rise in AVPV Kiss1 and Fos mRNA at the time of lights out in ovariectomized estrogen-treated animals, despite the absence of a measureable increase in LH. Furthermore, Bmal1 KO females have significantly increased LH response to kiss-10 administration, although the LH response to GnRH was unchanged. We then created Kiss1- and GnRH-specific Bmal1 KO mice to examine whether Bmal1 expression is necessary within either kisspeptin or GnRH neurons. We detected no significant differences in any measured reproductive parameter. Our results indicate that disruption of the hypothalamic regulation of fertility in the Bmal1 KO females is not dependent on endogenous clocks within either the GnRH or kisspeptin neurons.

Abstract
The role of small heterodimer partner (SHP) in regulation of xenobiotic detoxification remains elusive. Here, we uncover a critical role for SHP in circadian regulation of cytochromes P450 (CYPs) and drug-induced hepatotoxicity. Methods: The mRNA and protein levels of CYPs in the livers of wild-type and SHP-/- mice were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting, respectively. Regulation of CYP by SHP was investigated using luciferase reporter, mobility shift, chromatin immunoprecipitation, and/or co-immunoprecipitation assays. Results: The circadian rhythmicities of xenobiotic-detoxifying CYP mRNAs and proteins were disrupted in SHP-deficient mice. Of note, SHP ablation up-regulated Cyp2c38 and Cyp2c39, whereas it down-regulated all other CYP genes. Moreover, SHP regulated the expression of CYP genes through different mechanisms. SHP repressed Lrh-1/Hnf4α to down-regulate Cyp2c38, E4bp4 to up-regulate Cyp2a5, Dec2/HNF1α axis to up-regulate Cyp1a2, Cyp2e1 and Cyp3a11, and Rev-erbα to up-regulate Cyp2b10, Cyp4a10 and Cyp4a14. Furthermore, SHP ablation sensitized mice to theophylline (or mitoxantrone)-induced toxicity. Higher level of toxicity was correlated with down-regulated metabolism and clearance of theophylline (or mitoxantrone). In contrast, SHP ablation blunted the circadian rhythmicity of acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity and alleviated the toxicity by down-regulating Cyp2e1-mediated metabolism and reducing formation of the toxic metabolite. Toxicity alleviation by SHP ablation was also observed for aflatoxin B1 due to reduced formation of the toxic epoxide metabolite. Conclusion: SHP participates in circadian regulation of CYP enzymes, thereby impacting xenobiotic metabolism and drug-induced hepatotoxicity.

Abstract
Circadian rhythm helps organisms adapt to their environment and control a variety of physiological and metabolic processes. Acrylamide is a toxic compound that can be produced during food processing. The aim of this research is to investigate whether the circadian clock is involved in the toxicity mechanisms of acrylamide in mice liver. Our results revealed that acrylamide markedly induced circadian gene oscillation disorder and blocked circadian-related protein in mice liver and HepG2 cells. Simultaneously, the balance of the daily oscillation of the antioxidant enzymes was impeded under acrylamide treatment. Furthermore, acrylamide treatment elevated the mitochondrial dynamic gene expressions and influenced the mitochondrial morphology at the night phase. Acrylamide blocked circadian protein expression via repressing the phosphorylation of AKT or inducing oxidative stress. Taken together, our work reveals acrylamide as a clock-repressing compound generated through the Maillard browning reaction in certain foods that may possess a toxic effect via circadian clock mechanisms.

Abstract
The detrimental health effects of excessive alcohol consumption are well documented. Alcohol-induced liver disease (ALD) is the leading cause of death from chronic alcohol use. As with many diseases, the etiology of ALD is influenced by how the liver responds to other secondary insults. The molecular circadian clock is an intrinsic cellular timing system that helps organisms adapt and synchronize metabolism to changes in their environment. The clock also influences how tissues respond to toxic, environmental, and metabolic stressors, like alcohol. Consistent with the essential role for clocks in maintaining health, genetic and environmental disruption of the circadian clock contributes to disease. While a large amount of rich literature is available showing that alcohol disrupts circadian-driven behaviors and that circadian clock disruption increases alcohol drinking and preference, very little is known about the role circadian clocks play in alcohol-induced tissue injuries. In this review, recent studies examining the effect alcohol has on the circadian clock in peripheral tissues (liver and intestine) and the impact circadian clock disruption has on development of ALD are presented. This review also highlights some of the rhythmic metabolic processes in the liver that are disrupted by alcohol and potential mechanisms through which alcohol disrupts the liver clock. Improved understanding of the mechanistic links between the circadian clock and alcohol will hopefully lead to the development of new therapeutic approaches for treating ALD and other alcohol-related organ pathologies.

Abstract
Drug‐induced liver injury (DILI) is a serious worldwide health problem that accounts for more than 50% of acute liver failure. There is a great interest in clinical diagnosis and pharmaceutical industry to elucidate underlying molecular mechanisms and find noninvasive biomarkers for this pathology. Cell‐secreted extracellular vesicles (EVs) have provided a new biological source to identify low disease invasive markers. Despite the intense research developed on these vesicles, there is currently a gap on their patho‐physiological effects. Here, we study EVs secreted by primary rat hepatocytes challenged with galactatosamine (GalN), acetaminophen, or diclofenac as DILI in vitromodels. Proteomics analysis of these EVs revealed an increase in enzymes already associated with liver damage, such as catecholamine‐methyl transferase and arginase 1. An increase in translation‐related proteins and a decrease in regulators of apoptosis were also observed. In addition, we show the presence of enzymatic activity of P450 cytochrome 2d1 in EVs. The activity specifically is decreased in EVs secreted by hepatocytes after acetaminophen treatment and increased in EVs derived from GalN‐treated hepatocytes. By using in vivo preclinical models, we demonstrate the presence of this cytochrome activity in circulation under normal conditions and an increased activity after GalN‐induced injury. Conclusion: Hepatocyte‐secreted EVs carry active xenobiotic‐metabolizing enzymes that might be relevant in extracellular metabolism of drugs and be associated with DILI.

Abstract
Non-persistent environmental chemicals (NOPEC) are xenobiotics with short half-lives of elimination (<7h). Similar to chronopharmacokinetics, NOPEC metabolism may follow diurnal patterns of cytochrome P450 activity. The role of circadian liver clock in shaping NOPEC metabolism and their concomitant measurements of biomarkers of exposure and effect remains poorly understood in real-life human settings. Metabolic activation (toxication) by CYP2E1 converts trihalomethanes (THM) to harmful metabolites. We investigated the diurnal variation of urinary THM exposures and their metabolism patterns as catalyzed by CYP2E1 redox activity, using the surrogate marker of 4-hydroxynonenal (4HNE). We implemented three time-series trials with adult volunteers conducting specific household cleaning activities at predefined times of a day. Circadia variation of 4HNE was assessed with a cosinor model and its mesor levels increased with THM exposure. The time of exposure within the day dictated the magnitude of urinary THM levels and their toxication effect; in all three trials and relative to urinary THM levels before the activity, lower and higher median THM were measured right after the activity in morning and afternoon/night, respectively. This is consistent with higher reported CYP2E1 redox activity in light/active phase. Population health studies should incorporate time-stamped biomarker data to improve the understanding of chronic disease processes.

Abstract
Organs-on-Chips (OoCs) are poised to reshape dramatically the study of biology by replicating in vivo the function of individual and coupled human organs. Such microphysiological systems (MPS) have already recreated complex physiological responses necessary to simulate human organ function not evident in two-dimensional in vitro biological experiments. OoC researchers hope to streamline pharmaceutical development, accelerate toxicology studies, limit animal testing, and provide new insights beyond the capability of current biological models. However, to develop a physiologically accurate Human-on-a-Chip, i.e., an MPS homunculus that functions as an interconnected, whole-body, model organ system, one must couple individual OoCs with proper fluidic and metabolic scaling. This will enable the study of the effects of organ-organ interactions on the metabolism of drugs and toxins. Critical to these efforts will be the recapitulation of the complex physiological signals that regulate the endocrine, metabolic, and digestive systems. To date, with the exception of research focused on reproductive organs on chips, most OoC research ignores homuncular endocrine regulation, in particular the circadian rhythms that modulate the function of all organ systems. We outline the importance of cyclic endocrine regulation and the role that it may play in the development of MPS homunculi for the pharmacology, toxicology, and systems biology communities. Moreover, we discuss the critical end-organ hormone interactions that are most relevant for a typical coupled-OoC system, and the possible research applications of a missing endocrine system MicroFormulator (MES-µF) that could impose biological rhythms on in vitro models. By linking OoCs together through chemical messenger systems, advanced physiological phenomena relevant to pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics studies can be replicated. The concept of a MES-µF could be applied to other standard cell-culture systems such as well plates, thereby extending the concept of circadian hormonal regulation to much of in vitro biology. Impact statement Historically, cyclic endocrine modulation has been largely ignored within in vitro cell culture, in part because cultured cells typically have their media changed every day or two, precluding hourly adjustment of hormone concentrations to simulate circadian rhythms. As the Organ-on-Chip (OoC) community strives for greater physiological realism, the contribution of hormonal oscillations toward regulation of organ systems has been examined only in the context of reproductive organs, and circadian variation of the breadth of other hormones on most organs remains unaddressed. We illustrate the importance of cyclic endocrine modulation and the role that it plays within individual organ systems. The study of cyclic endocrine modulation within OoC systems will help advance OoC research to the point where it can reliably replicate in vitro key regulatory components of human physiology. This will help translate OoC work into pharmaceutical applications and connect the OoC community with the greater pharmacology and physiology communities.

Effects of meal composition and meal timing on the expression of genes involved in hepatic drug metabolism in rats. PLoS One 2017; 12:e0185520.

Abstract
Introduction With chronotherapy, drug administration is synchronized with daily rhythms in drug clearance and pharmacokinetics. Daily rhythms in gene expression are centrally mastered by the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus as well as by tissue clocks containing similar molecular mechanisms in peripheral organs. The central timing system is sensitive to changes in the external environment such as those of the light-dark cycle, meal timing and meal composition. We investigated how changes in diet composition and meal timing would affect the daily hepatic expression rhythms of the nuclear receptors PXR and CAR and of enzymes involved in P450 mediated drug metabolism, as such changes could have consequences for the practice of chronotherapy. Materials and methods Rats were subjected to either a regular chow or a free choice high-fat-high-sugar (fcHFHS) diet. These diets were provided ad libitum, or restricted to either the light phase or the dark phase. In a second experiment, rats had access to chow either ad libitum or in 6 meals equally distributed over 24 hours. Results Pxr, Alas1 and Por displayed significant day-night rhythms under ad libitum chow fed conditions, which for Pxr was disrupted under fcHFHS diet conditions. Although no daily rhythms were detected in expression of CAR, Cyp2b2 and Cyp3a2, the fcHFHS diet did affect basal expression of these genes. In chow fed rats, dark phase feeding induced a diurnal rhythm in Cyp2b2 expression while light phase feeding induced a diurnal rhythm in Car expression and completely shifted the peak expression of Pxr, Car, Cyp2b2, Alas1 and Por. The 6-meals-a-day feeding only abolished the Pxr rhythm but not the rhythms of the other genes. Conclusion We conclude that although nuclear receptors and enzymes involved in the regulation of hepatic drug metabolism are sensitive to meal composition, changes in meal timing are mainly effectuated via changes in the molecular clock.

Abstract
Paracetamol (APAP) is one of the most widely used and popular over-the-counter analgesic and antipyretic drugs in the world when used at therapeutic doses. APAP overdose can cause severe liver injury, liver necrosis and kidney damage in human beings and animals. Many studies indicate that oxidative stress is involved in the various toxicities associated with APAP, and various antioxidants were evaluated to investigate their protective roles against APAP-induced liver and kidney toxicities. To date, almost no review has addressed the APAP toxicity in relation to oxidative stress. This review updates the research conducted over the past decades into the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive nitrogen species (RNS), and oxidative stress as a result of APAP treatments, and ultimately their correlation with the toxicity and metabolism of APAP. The metabolism of APAP involves various CYP450 enzymes, through which oxidative stress might occur, and such metabolic factors are reviewed within. The therapeutics of a variety of compounds against APAP-induced organ damage based on their anti-oxidative effects is also discussed, in order to further understand the role of oxidative stress in APAP-induced toxicity. This review will throw new light on the critical roles of oxidative stress in APAP-induced toxicity, as well as on the contradictions and blind spots that still exist in the understanding of APAP toxicity, the cellular effects in terms of organ injury and cell signaling pathways, and finally strategies to help remedy such against oxidative damage.

Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury presents as various forms of acute and chronic liver disease. There is wide geographic variation in the most commonly implicated agents. Smoking can induce cytochrome P450 enzymes but this does not necessarily translate into clinically relevant drug-induced liver injury. Excessive alcohol consumption is a clear risk factor for intrinsic hepatotoxicity from acetaminophen and may predispose to injury from antituberculosis medications. Understanding of the role of infection, proinflammatory states, disorders of coagulation, and the hepatic clock in predisposing patients to drug-induced liver injury is evolving. More study focusing specifically on environmental risk factors predisposing patients to drug-induced liver injury is needed.

Abstract
Circadian clocks are encoded by a transcription-translation feedback loop that aligns energetic processes with the solar cycle. We show that genetic disruption of the clock activator BMAL1 in skeletal myotubes and fibroblasts increased levels of the hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF1α) under hypoxic conditions. Bmal1-/- myotubes displayed reduced anaerobic glycolysis, mitochondrial respiration with glycolytic fuel, and transcription of HIF1α targets Phd3, Vegfa, Mct4, Pk-m, and Ldha, whereas abrogation of the clock repressors CRY1/2 stabilized HIF1α in response to hypoxia. HIF1α bound directly to core clock gene promoters, and, when co-expressed with BMAL1, led to transactivation of PER2-LUC and HRE-LUC reporters. Further, genetic stabilization of HIF1α in Vhl-/- cells altered circadian transcription. Finally, induction of clock and HIF1α target genes in response to strenuous exercise varied according to the time of day in wild-type mice. Collectively, our results reveal bidirectional interactions between circadian and HIF pathways that influence metabolic adaptation to hypoxia.

Abstract
This review summarizes the American Physiological Society (APS) Presidential Symposium 1 entitled "Physiological Processes Underlying Organ Injury in Alcohol Abuse" at the 2016 Experimental Biology meeting. The symposium was organized by Dr. Patricia Molina, past president of the APS, was held on April 3 at the Convention Center in San Diego, CA, and was funded by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. The "Physiological Processes Underlying Organ Injury in Alcohol Abuse Symposium" assembled experts and leaders in the field and served as a platform to discuss and share knowledge on the latest developments and scientific advances on the mechanisms underlying organ injury in alcohol abuse. This symposium provided unique, interdisciplinary alcohol research, including several organs, liver, muscle, adipose, and brain, affected by excessive alcohol use.
