Morning-time heart attacks are associated with an ablation in the sleep-time dip in blood pressure, the mechanism of which is unknown. The epigenetic changes are the hallmark of sleep and circadian clock disruption and homocystinuria (HHcy). The homocystinuria causes ablation in the dip in blood pressure during sleep. Interestingly, HHcy is generated during the epigenetic gene turning off and turning on (i.e., imprinting) by methylation of the DNA promoter. The mitochondrial sulfur metabolism by 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfur transferase (3MST), ATP citrate lyase (ACYL), and epigenetic rhythmic methylation are regulated by folate 1-carbon metabolism (FOCM), i.e., the methionine (M)-SAM-SAH-Hcy, adenosine, and uric acid cycle. Epigenetic gene writer (DNMT), gene eraser (TET/FTO), and editor de-aminase (ADAR) regulate the rhythmic, i.e., reversible methylation/demethylation of H3K4, H3K9, H4K20, m6A, and m5C. The mitochondrial ATP citrate cycle and creatine kinase (CK) regulate chromatin transcription, maturation, and accessibility as well as muscle function. The transcription is regulated by methylation. The maturation and accessibility are controlled by acetylation. However, it is unclear whether a high fat dysbiotic diet (HFD) causes dysrhythmic expression of the gene writer, eraser, and editor, creating hyperuricemia and cardiac and renal dysfunction. We hypothesized that an HFD increases the gene writer (DNMT1) and editor (ADAR), decreases the eraser (TET/FTO), and increases uric acid to cause chronic diseases. This increases the levels of H3K4, H3K9, H4K20, m6A, and m5C. Interestingly, the DNMT1KO mitigates. Further, the DNMT1KO and ADAR inhibition attenuate HFD-induced NGAL/FGF23/TMPRSS2/MMP2, 9, 13, and uric acid levels and improve cardiac and renal remodeling. Although the novel role of nerve endings by the Piezo channels (i.e., the combination of ENaC, VDAC, TRPV, K+, and Mg2+ channels) in the interoception is suggested, interestingly, we and others have shown mechanisms independent of the nerve, by interoception, such as the cargo of the exosome in denervation models of heart failure. If proper and appropriate levels of these enzymes are available to covert homocysteine to hydrogen sulfide (H2S) during homocystinuria, then the H2S can potentially serve as a newer form of treatment for morning heart attacks and renal sulfur transsulfuration transport diseases.
