摘要
Ornithine transcarbamylases (OTC), a key enzyme in urea cycle, is an important marker for some liver injury or diseases. However, whether OTC could be a sensitive indicator for liver dysfunction under sleep disturbance condition remains unknown. The present study aimed to explore the circadian oscillation expression of OTC and its significance in disturbed sleep condition. Sleep disturbance was conducted by a sleep deprivation (SD) instrument. Our results found that SD for 72h induced abnormal increasing of OTC levels in serum and liver of rats. And, serum OTC concentration and liver OTC expression could return to normal levels after recovery sleep following SD. Moreover, hepatic OTC expression showed circadian oscillation in day and night, characterized with occurrence of a peak between ZT 22 and ZT 2, and a nadir between ZT 14 and ZT 18. Further analysis suggested the existence of ROR response element (RORE) for potential RORɑ binding sites in OTC promoter region, and elevated RORɑ expression in rat livers under sleep disturbance condition. Additionally, oscillation expression of OTC induced by serum shock in HepG2 cells was characterized with a peak occurred between ZT 12 and ZT 16, and RORɑ knockdown at ZT 16 significantly lowered OTC expression. The results together indicate that OTC is closely correlated with circadian clock, and could be a sensitive indicator for sleep disturbance stress.
