Descripción
In the mammalian pineal gland (PG), cyclic AMP responsive element-binding protein 1 (CREB1) participates in the nocturnal melatonin synthesis that rhythmically modulates physiology and behavior. Phosphorylation of CREB1 present in pinealocyte nuclei is one of the key regulatory steps that drives pineal transcription. The spatio-temporal dynamics of CREB1 itself within PG cell types have not yet been documented. In this study we analyzed total CREB1 via Western blot, and the dynamism of CREB1 nuclear distribution in individual rat pinealocytes using fluorescence immunohistochemistry followed by confocal laser-scanning microscopy and quantitative analysis. Total CREB1 levels remained constant in the PG throughout the light:dark cycle. The distribution pattern of nuclear CREB1 did vary, however, among different PG cells. Pinealocytes emerged as having discrete CREB1 domains within their nucleoplasm that were especially distinct. The number, size, and location of CREB1 foci fluctuated among pinealocytes, within the same PG and among Zeitgeber times. A significantly larger dispersion of CREB1-immunoreactive nuclear sites was found at night. This was not accompanied by changes in the overall transcription activity, which was mostly conserved between the light and dark phases, as shown by the expression of a particular phosphorylated form of the RNA polymerase II (RNAPII-pSer5CTD). Suppression of the nocturnal norepinephrine pulse by chronic bilateral superior cervical ganglionectomy increased CREB1 dispersion in pinealocyte nuclei, as compared to sham-derived cells. In addition, differences in CREB1 distribution were found between sham-operated and non-operated rats at early night. Together, these data suggest that in mature pinealocytes nuclear CREB1 is subjected to a dynamic spatio-temporal distribution. Further studies are necessary to elucidate the underlying mechanisms, including the role of chromatin and interchromatin elements, and to understand the impact of CREB1 reorganization in the pineal transcriptome.
