Cholinergic regulation of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) has been extensively studied although the intracellular signaling mechanisms are not well understood. We examined immunostaining for phospholipase C-beta (PLC-beta) families that couple to muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR) and demonstrated the expression of PLC-beta 1 and beta 4 in the mouse SCN. Ca2+ imaging analysis indicated that the MI-mAChR antagonist, pirenzepine blocked carbachol-induced Ca2+ elevation in the SCN and the response was equivalent between the wild type and the PLC-beta 4-knockout mice. In addition, the knockout mice displayed locomotor and temperature rhythms coupling to 24 h light/dark cycles. Therefore, it was proposed that PLC-beta 1 but not PLC-beta 4 was involved in the mAChR-mediated Ca2+ signaling in the SCN.
