PMID: 36862511.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Abstract: </strong> Circadian rhythmicity in renal function suggests rhythmic adaptations in renal metabolism. To decipher the role of the circadian clock in renal metabolism, we studied diurnal changes in renal metabolic pathways using integrated transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic analysis performed on control mice and mice with inducible deletion of the circadian clock regulator Bmal1 in the renal tubule (cKOt). With this unique resource, we demonstrated that ~30% RNAs, ~20% proteins and ~20% metabolites are rhythmic in kidneys of control mice. Several key metabolic pathways including NAD+ biosynthesis, fatty acid transport, carnitine shuttle,and b-oxidation displayed impairments in kidneys of cKOt, resulting in a perturbed mitochondrial activity. Carnitine reabsorption from the primary urine was one of the most impacted processes with a ~50% reduction in plasma carnitine levels and a parallel systemic decrease in tissues carnitine content. This suggests that the circadian clock in the renal tubule controls both kidney and systemic physiology.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>This record contains two separate mass-spectrometry metabolomics data sets associated with this study:</strong></p> <ol> <li>Metabolic profile of renal tubules, MS/MS data, Metabolon, Morrisville, NC (N=60)</li> <li>Metabolic profile of blood plasma, MS/MS data, Biocrates, Innsbruck, Austria (N=60)</li> </ol> <p>For each data set, original data as received from the platforms and processed data as used in the data analysis are provided.

Accompanying simulated data for "Go multivariate: a Monte Carlo study of a multilevel hidden Markov model with categorical data of varying complexity"
<p>The multilevel hidden Markov model (MHMM) is a promising vehicle to investigate latent dynamics over time in social and behavioral processes. By including continuous individual random effects, the model accommodates variability between individuals, providing individual-specific trajectories and facilitating the study of individual differences. However, the performance of the MHMM has not been sufficiently explored. Currently, there are no practical guidelines on the sample size needed to obtain reliable estimates related to categorical data characteristics We performed an extensive simulation to assess the effect of the number of dependent variables (1-4), the number of individuals (5-90), and the number of observations per individual (100-1600) on the estimation performance of group-level parameters and between-individual variability on a Bayesian MHMM with categorical data of various levels of complexity. We found that using multivariate data generally alleviates the sample size needed and improves the stability of the results. Regarding the estimation of group-level parameters, the number of individuals and observations largely compensate for each other. Meanwhile, only the former drives the estimation of between-individual variability. We conclude with guidelines on the sample size necessary based on the complexity of the data and the study objectives of the practitioners.</p> <p>This repository contains data generated for the manuscript: "Go multivariate: a Monte Carlo study of a multilevel hidden Markov model with categorical data of varying complexity".

Multilevel selection on social network traits differs between sexes in experimental populations of forked fungus beetles
<p>Both individual and group behavior can influence individual fitness, but multilevel selection is rarely quantified on social behaviors. Social networks provide a unique opportunity to study multilevel selection on social behaviors, as they describe complex social traits and patterns of interaction at both the individual and group levels. In this study, we used contextual analysis to measure the consequences of both individual network position and group network structure on individual fitness in experimental populations of forked fungus beetles (<em>Bolitotherus</em> <em>cornutus</em>) with two different resource distributions. We found that males with high individual connectivity (strength) and centrality (betweenness) had higher mating success. However, group network structure did not influence their mating success. Conversely, we found that individual network position had no effect on female reproductive success but that females in populations with many social interactions experienced lower reproductive success. The strength of individual-level selection in males and group-level selection in females intensified when resources were clumped together, showing that habitat structure influences multilevel selection. Individual and emergent group social behavior both influence variation in components of individual fitness but impact male mating success and female reproductive success differently, setting up intersexual conflicts over patterns of social interactions at multiple levels. </p>
Accompanying empirical data for Kirchherr et al., 2023, "Bayesian multilevel hidden Markov models identify stable state dynamics in longitudinal recordings from macaque primary motor cortex"
<p>This repository contains data accompanying: Kirchherr et al., 2023, "Bayesian multilevel hidden Markov models identify stable state dynamics in longitudinal recordings from macaque primary motor cortex".</p> <p>Data collection methods:</p> <p>Two adult female rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) trained on a reaching, and grasping, and placing task served as the subjects. The animal handling as well as surgical and experimental procedures complied with European guideline (2010/63/UE) and authorized by the French Ministry for Higher Education and Research (project # 2016112713202878) in force on the care and use of laboratory animals, and were approved by the ethics committee CELYNE (comité d’éthique Lyonnais pour les neurosciences expérimentale, C2EA 42). After initial training, we performed a sterile surgery to implant six floating multielectrode arrays (FMA, Microprobes for Life Science, Gaithersburg, MD, USA) in the right (monkey 1) or left (monkey 2) cortical hemisphere. Each array was comprised of 32 platinum/iridium electrodes (impedance 0.5 MΩ at 1 kHz) with lengths ranging from 1 to 6 mm, and with an inter-electrode spacing of 400 μm. One electrode array was implanted in the primary motor cortex (M1), two were implanted in the ventral premotor cortex (F5), one in the dorsal premotor cortex (F2), and two in the prefrontal cortex (45a and 46/12r), as estimated according to a previous magnetic resonance imaging scan. For the purposes of this study, we analyzed data from the M1 array of each monkey.</p> <p>The wideband neural signal (bandpass filtered at 0.1 to 7500 kHz) was recorded at 30 kS/s, and amplified and digitized (16-bit; 0.192 μV resolution) with an Intan Tech-based (Intan Technologies, Los Angeles, CA, USA) open source acquisition system (Open Ephys; Siegle et al. 2017). This system uses a 256-channel Intan RHD2000 series acquisition board and 32-channel headstages (RHD2132). Spike detection was performed offline using Trisdesclous (Garcia & Pouzat,2015). The common reference was removed to reduce ambient noise. Spikes were then detected from each electrode using a threshold of 2 times the median absolute deviation (MAD), and analyzed as multi-unit activity (MUA) in 10 ms bins. All electrodes in which at least one well-isolated spike waveform was detected were selected for the following analyses. We thus used a sample of 21 electrodes out of 32 for monkey 1, and 25 out of 32 electrodes for monkey 2. Custom made detection panels were used to record the moments when the monkey’s hand released the handle, the hand contacted the target object, and when the object was placed in the groove. An Omniplex 16-channel recording system (Plexon, Dallas, TX, USA) was used to simultaneously record these behavioral events. Trials were discarded if the response time (time between the go signal and handle release) was less than 100 or greater than 1500 ms, the reach duration (time between handle release and object contact) was less than 100 or greater than 1000 ms, or the placing duration (time between object contact and placing the object in the groove) was less than 100 or greater than 1200 ms, leaving 19 - 68 trials per day for monkey 1 (M = 43.9, SD = 15.46, N = 439; left: M = 14.8, SD = 5.74; center: M = 14.4, SD = 5.15; right: M = 14.7, SD = 7.73), and 23 - 49 per day for monkey 2 (M = 38.3, SD = 9.87, N = 383; left: M = 14.2, SD = 3.91; center: M = 10.8, SD = 3.55; right: M = 13.3, SD = 3.37).</p> <p><br> Abstract:</p> <p>Neural populations, rather than single neurons, may be the fundamental unit of cortical computation. Analyzing chronically recorded neural population activity is challenging not only because of the high dimensionality of activity in many neurons, but also because of changes in the recorded signal that may or may not be due to neural plasticity. Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are a promising technique for analyzing such data in terms of discrete, latent states, but previous approaches have either not considered the statistical properties of neural spiking data, have not been adaptable to longitudinal data, or have not modeled condition specific differences. We present a multilevel Bayesian HMM which addresses these shortcomings by incorporating multivariate Poisson log-normal emission probability distributions, multilevel parameter estimation, and trial-specific condition covariates. We applied this framework to multi-unit neural spiking data recorded using chronically implanted multi-electrode arrays from macaque primary motor cortex during a cued reaching, grasping, and placing task. We show that the model identifies latent neural population states which are tightly linked to behavioral events, despite the model being trained without any information about event timing. We show that these events represent specific spatiotemporal patterns of neural population activity and that their relationship to behavior is consistent over days of recording. The utility and stability of this approach is demonstrated using a previously learned task, but this multilevel Bayesian HMM framework would be especially suited for future studies of long-term plasticity in neural populations.</p>

Multilevel analysis between Physcomitrium patens and Mortierella explores potential long-standing interaction among land plants and fungi
<p class="MsoNormal"><a name="_Hlk83717523"></a><span>The model moss species <em>Physcomitrium patens</em> has long been used for studying divergence and evolution of land plants spanning from bryophytes to angiosperms. In addition to its phylogenetic relationships, the limited number of differential tissues, and comparable morphology to the earliest embryophytes make it an ideal candidate for modeling plant terrestrialization 500 million years ago. Based on how plants and fungi interact today, it is predicted that early interactions may have aided in overcoming the barriers present for initial plant colonization on land. This may have manifested similar to present day, where fungi enabled easier uptake of nitrogen, phosphorous, micronutrients, and water retention in exchange for a reliable carbon source. However, identifiable fungal symbionts in <em>P. patens</em>, despite mutualistic interaction widespread among all present day embryophyte families, have remained elusive. To test modern representatives of early land fungal lineages, two Mortierella species (<em>Linnemannia elongata</em> and <em>Benniella eriona</em>), with strains lacking and containing endobacterial symbionts, were grown in coculture with <em>P. patens</em>. We illustrate the interaction between <em>P. patens </em>and Mortierella through high-throughput phenomics, microscopy, RNA-sequencing, differential expression profiling, gene ontology enrichment, and comparisons among 99 other <em>P. patens</em> transcriptomic studies. Our study provides insights into the earliest plant-fungal interactions may have looked like and ways <em>P. patens</em> and Mortierella communicate today.</span></p>

Data from: Functional traits and community composition: a comparison among community-weighted means, weighted correlations, and multilevel models
1. Of the several approaches that are used to analyze functional trait-environment relationships, the most popular is community-weighted mean regressions (CWMr) in which species trait values are averaged at the site level and then regressed against environmental variables. Other approaches include model-based methods and weighted correlations of different metrics of trait-environment associations, the best known of which is the fourth-corner correlation method. 2. We investigated these three general statistical approaches for trait-environment associations: CWMr, five weighted correlation metrics (Peres-Neto et al. 2017), and two multilevel models (MLM) using four different methods for computing p-values. We first compared the methods applied to a plant community dataset. To determine the validity of the statistical conclusions, we then performed a simulation study. 3. CWMr gave highly significant associations for both traits, while the other methods gave a mix of support. CWMr had inflated type I errors for some simulation scenarios, implying that the significant results for the data could be spurious. The weighted correlation methods had generally good type I error control but had low power. One of the multilevel models, that from Jamil et al. (2013), had both good type I error control and high power when an appropriate method was used to obtain p-values. In particular, if there was no correlation among species in their abundances among sites, a parametric bootstrap likelihood ratio test (LRT) gave the best power. When there was correlation among species in their abundances, a conditional parametric LRT had correct type I errors but had lower power. 4. There is no overall best method for identifying trait-environment associations. For the simple task of testing, one-by-one, associations between single environmental variables and single traits, the weighted correlations with permutation tests all had good type I error control, and their ease of implementation is an advantage. For the more complex task of multivariate analyses and model fitting, and when high statistical power is needed, we recommend MLM2 (Jamil et al. 2013); however, care must be taken to ensure against inflated type I errors. Because CWMr exhibited highly inflated type I error rates, it should always be avoided. 2.

Data from: Multilevel and sex-specific selection on competitive traits in North American red squirrels.
Individuals often interact more closely with some members of the population (e.g. offspring, siblings or group members) than they do with other individuals. This structuring of interactions can lead to multilevel natural selection, where traits expressed at the group-level influence fitness alongside individual-level traits. Such multilevel selection can alter evolutionary trajectories, yet is rarely quantified in the wild, especially for species that do not interact in clearly demarcated groups. We quantified multilevel natural selection on two traits, postnatal growth rate and birth date, in a population of North American red squirrels (Tamiasciurus hudsonicus). The strongest level of selection was typically within-acoustic social neighbourhoods (within 130m of the nest), where growing faster and being born earlier than nearby litters was key, while selection on growth rate was also apparent both within-litters and within-study areas. Higher population densities increased the strength of selection for earlier breeding, but did not influence selection on growth rates. Females experienced especially strong selection on growth rate at the within-litter level, possibly linked to the biased bequeathal of the maternal territory to daughters. Our results demonstrate the importance of considering multilevel and sex-specific selection in wild species, including those that are territorial and sexually monomorphic.
