2 Figure 1 Time-dependent skin physiological functions in mice are regulated by the mAqp3 gene. (a) Temporal expression profile of mAqp3 mRNA in mouse epidermis of wild-type and Clk/Clk mice. Levels of mAqp3 mRNA significantly varied over 24 hours in wild-type (P<0.05; analysis of variance (ANOVA)) but not in Clk/Clk mice. (b) Temporal expression profile of mAQP3 protein in mouse epidermis of wild-type and Clk/Clk mice. Levels of mAqp3 protein significantly varied over 24 hours in wild-type (P<0.05; ANOVA) but not in Clk/Clk mice. (c) Temporal stratum corneum hydration profiles of wild-type and Clk/Clk mice using a Corneometer (CM). Stratum corneum hydration is indicated by CM units. Levels of stratum corneum hydration significantly varied over 24 hours in wild-type (P<0.05; ANOVA) but not in Clk/Clk mice. Values are the means±SEM (n=3–8). *P<0.05; **P<0.01. (b) *P<0.05; **P<0.01 compared with wild-type mice. Journal of Investigative Dermatology  , DOI: ( /jid ) Copyright © 2014 The Society for Investigative Dermatology, Inc Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Transcriptional control of mAqp3 by the circadian regulators D-site-binding protein (DBP) and E4 promoter-binding protein 4 (E4BP4). (a) Computer-aided analysis identified clock gene response elements (E-box, D-site, retinoic orphan receptor response element (RORE), and cAMP response element (CRE)) in the promoter region of the mAqp3 gene. (b) mAqp3 (-1,532 bp) luciferase reporter activity induced by DBP. (c) Temporal expression profiles of mAqp3 in NIH3T3 cells after serum shock. DBP siRNA and E4BP4 siRNA (DBP siRNA/E4BP4 siRNA) were transfected at the time of plating. There was a significant time-dependent variation in cells transfected with control siRNA (P<0.05, analysis of variance (ANOVA)). (d) Temporal expression profile of mDbp mRNA in mouse epidermis of wild-type and Clk/Clk mice. Levels of mDbp mRNA significantly varied over 24 hours in wild-type mice (P<0.05; ANOVA). Values are the means±SEM (n=3–6). *P<0.05; **P<0.01. (c, d) *P<0.05 compared with the indicated time points.

4 Figure 3 Schematic representation of the molecular mechanisms regulating the circadian expression of the AQP3 gene. (a) In the mAqp3 gene, the D-site-binding protein, DBP, periodically binds to response elements in the mAqp3 promoter to activate its transcription. E4 promoter-binding protein 4 (E4BP4) suppresses its transcription at other times of day, thereby generating 24-hour rhythms. (b) In the hAQP3 gene, CLOCK and BMAL1 periodically bind to the response element in the hAQP3 promoter to activate its transcription. Once the PER and CRY proteins have reached critical concentrations, they attenuate CLOCK/BMAL1 transactivation, thereby generating 24-hour rhythms.

5 Figure 4 Time-dependent glycerol uptake in HaCaT cells is regulated by the hAQP3 gene. (a) Temporal expression profiles of hAQP3 mRNA in HaCaT cells after serum shock (closed circle) or non-serum shock (open circle). (b) Temporal expression profiles of protein levels of human aquaporin 3 (hAQP3) in HaCaT cells after serum shock. (c) Radiolabeled-glycerol uptake profiles in HaCaT cells after serum shock. Levels of hAQP3 mRNA (a), protein (b), and glycerol uptake (c) significantly varied over 24 hours after serum shock (P<0.05; analysis of variance). Values are the means±SEM (n=3–6). CRE, cAMP response element; DBP, D-site-binding protein; RORE, retinoic orphan receptor response element.

6 Figure 5 Transcriptional control of hAQP3 by the circadian regulators CLOCK and BMAL1. (a) Computer-aided analysis identified clock gene response elements (E-box, D-site, retinoic orphan receptor response element (RORE), and cAMP response element (CRE)) in the promoter region of the hAQP3 gene. (b) hAQP3 (-1,580 bp) luciferase reporter activity induced by CLOCK and BMAL1. (c) hAQP3 (-1,580 bp) luciferase reporter activity induced by CLOCK/BMAL1 was inhibited by transfection with PER2 or CRY1. The presence (+) or absence (-) of expression plasmids is denoted. Values are the means±SEM (n=3–6). **P<0.01. Journal of Investigative Dermatology  , DOI: ( /jid ) Copyright © 2014 The Society for Investigative Dermatology, Inc Terms and Conditions

The CLOCK small interfering RNA (siRNA) was transfected at the time of plating. There was a significant time-dependent variation in cells transfected with control siRNA (P<0.05, ANOVA).
