So excited my doctorate work (and this excellent Preview by Yuhui Cui) is finally out @Neuron! We used human MDD profiling + mouse manipulation studies to identify an epigenetic regulator linking OFC astrocyte reactivity -> neuronal hyperexcitability -> stress susceptibility.

This project, which robustly identifies a novel astrocytic regulator of Major-depressive-disorder associated stress susceptibility represents a monumental effort by one of the most talented young scientists that I have ever known. Sasha will follow up with summaries of the work

Using a viral approach to disrupt H3 monoaminylations in TMN, we significantly ablated circadian gene expression in this region. This matched behavioral phenotypes indicating significantly disrupted circadian entrainment in mice.

Through analysis, we show WDR5 binding is primarily at CLOCK/BMAL1 target genes, and binding was severely diminished at ZT20 when H3Q5his enrichment is high & H3Q5ser is low. This matches work showing MLL1 & CLOCK physically interact [Paulo Sassone-Corsi’s group (PMID 21113167)].
