Transcription profiling of rat testes to investigate the effects of radiation

ABSTRACT: Analysis of LBNF1 rat testes from controls, containing both somatic and all germ cell types and from irradiated rats in which all cells germ cells except type A spermatgogonia are eliminated. Results provide insight into distinguishing germ and somatic cell genes and identification of somatic cell genes that are upregulated after irradiation. Experiment Overall Design: We studied 10 Sample replicates of control rat testes and 5 Sample replicates of irradiated rat testes.

Although gonadotropins and androgen are required for normal spermatogenesis and both testosterone and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) are responsible for the inhibition of spermatogonial differentiation that occurs in irradiated rats, it has been difficult to identify the specific genes involved. To study specific hormonally regulated changes in somatic cell gene expression in the testis that may be involved in these processes, without the complication of changing populations of germ cells, w ...[more]

Transcription profiling of rat somatic cells from testes treated with hormone

Project description:Analysis of hormone effects on irradiated LBNF1 rat testes, which contain only somatic cells except for a few type A spermatgogonia. Rats were treated for 2 weeks with either sham treatment (group X), hormonal ablation (GnRH antagonist and the androgen receptor antagonist flutamide, group XAF), testosterone supplementation (GnRH antagonist and testosterone, group XAT), and FSH supplementation ((GnRH antagonist, androgen receptor antagonist, and FSH, group XAFF). Results provide insight into identifying genes in the somatic testis cells regulated by testosterone, LH, or FSH. Experiment Overall Design: 14 Sample replicates of sham treatment, 11 Sample replicates of hormonal ablation, 5 Sample replicates of testosterone supplementation, and 5 Sample replicates of FSH supplementation were studied.

Expression data from adult rat testes treated with 3 mg/kg b.w. cadmium chloride via i.p.

Project description:This is a study to explore the transcriptional changes after cadmium treatment in adult rat testes at three time points (control--0 hour, 8 hour and 4 day). Cadmium is an environmental toxicant that is known to affect the male reproductive system. It disrupts the blood-testis barrier irreversibly, and affects the Sertoli-germ cells adhesion, causing germ cell depletion from the seminiferous epithelium. Keywords: Cadmium effect in rat testes

scRNA-Seq of bovine fetal testes derived from NANOS3 knockout and wildtype embryos

Project description:We performed single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-Seq) of testes from bovine fetuses derived from either CRISPR/Cas9 NANOS3 knockout (KO; NANOS3 -/-) or wildtype control (NANOS3 +/+) embryos. The scRNA-Seq analysis showed a complete loss of primordial germ cells (PGCs) and gonocytes in NANOS3 KO fetal testes, while maintaining the development of somatic support cells.

Estrogen regulated genes in rat testes and their relationship to recovery of spermatogenesis after irradiation

Project description:Despite numerous observations of effects of estrogens on spermatogenesis, identification of estrogen-regulated genes in the testis is limited. We previously showed in rats, in which irradiation had completely blocked spermatogonial differentiation, that testosterone (T) suppression with GnRH-antagonist and antiandrogen stimulated spermatogenic recovery and addition of estradiol (E2) to this regimen accelerated this recovery. We report here the global changes in testicular cell gene expression induced by the E2 treatment. By minimizing the changes in other hormones and also having concurrent data on the regulation of the genes by those hormones, we were able to dissect the effects of estrogen on gene expression, independent of gonadotropin or T changes. Expression of 20 genes, largely in somatic cells, was up- or down-regulated between 2- and 5-fold by E2. There were also early germ cell genes whose expression increased but this was a result of a small increase in spermatogonial numbers. The striking enrichment of transcripts not corresponding to known genes among the E2-downregulated probes led to the identification of one as micro-RNA miR-34a. We propose that genes whose expression levels are altered in one direction by irradiation and in the opposite direction by both T suppression and E2 treatment are candidates for controlling the block in differentiation. Several genes, including insulin-like 3 (Insl3), satisfied those criteria. If they are indeed involved in the inhibition of spermatogonial differentiation, they may be candidate targets for clinical treatments to enhance recovery of spermatogenesis following gonadotoxic exposures, such as those resulting from cancer therapy. 6 sample replicates of hormonal ablation plus estradiol treatment, compared to previous 14 Sample replicates of sham treatment and 11 Sample replicates of hormonal ablation treatment groups in GSE15243

Adjudin-induced germ cell loss from adult rat testes

Project description:This is a study to explore the transcriptional changes after Adjudin treatment in adult rat testes at three time points (control, 8 hour and 4 day). Adjudin, [1-(2,4-dichlorobenzyl)-1H-indazole-3-carbohydrazide], is a potential male contraceptive that targets the Sertoli-germ cell interface and causes germ cell depletion from the seminiferous epithelium. Adjudin has been proved to be a useful model to study the mechanisms that regulate junction restructuring in the testis. Keywords: Sertoli-germ cell adhesion regulation using an Adjudin model

Somatic cells in testes

Project description:Gene expression profiles of somatic cells of fetal and adult testis. To identify genes developmentally regulated in the somatic cells of the testis, serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) has been used to generate gene expression profiles from these cells in the fetal and adult mouse. To avoid germ cell transcripts, a fetal SAGE library was generated from germ cell-free fetal Wv/Wv mice, and an adult SAGE library was generated from adult testes depleted of germ cells with busulfan. The combined SAGE libraries contained 147570 tags identifying 12976 unique transcripts. Of these transcripts, 3607 were present in only the fetal library and 3941 were present in only the adult library. Most of the abundant differentially expressed tags in the adult testis library were from characterized genes, whereas 3' rapid amplification of complementary ends was required to identify most differentially expressed tags in the fetal library. These fetal tags were mostly associated with uncharacterized UniGene clusters. These data provide a comprehensive and quantitative analysis of gene expression in the somatic cells of the fetal and adult testis (including unknown transcripts) and identify genes differentially expressed in these cells during testis development. These differentially regulated genes are likely to provide insight into mechanisms regulating testis function both during development and in the adult animal. Keywords: other

DICER-interacting partners in juvenile mouse testes

Project description:DICER has a well-characterized role in the processing of microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNA) that are important for post-transcriptional gene regulation. Emerging evidence suggests that DICER also has several non-canonical functions beyond miRNA/siRNA biogenesis, for example in transcriptional gene silencing at the chromatin level, as well as in RNA degradation and maintenance of genomic integrity. We have shown that the function of DICER in germ cells is essential for normal spermatogenesis; male mice lacking DICER in postnatal male germ cells are infertile due to severe defects in haploid differentiation. To better understand the function of DICER in male germ cells, we immunoprecipitated DICER from juvenile mouse testes and performed mass spectrometric analysis to identify DICER-interacting proteins.

Short-term in vitro culture of rat fetal testes with all-trans retinoic acid

Project description:Analysis of gene expression and alternate splicing effects of retinoic acid treatment on gestational day 15 rat fetal testes in whole testis culture Retinoic acid exposure in cultured fetal testis has previously been demonstrated to have significant effects on the histology of the fetal testis in multiple species, as well as to alter the meiotic states of germ cells. However, previous experiments have not analyzed the mechanisms by which retinoic acid exposure leads to altered tubulogenesis and loss of seminiferous cord structure. This experiment demonstrated that retinoic acid exposure activated signaling pathways that promote the ovary development program and oppose normal testis development in mid-gestational rat fetal testes.
