Comparison of the human oocyte to its sister polar body

ABSTRACT: Clinicians need additional metrics for predicting quality of human oocytes for IVF procedures. Human polar bodies reflect the oocyte transcript profile. Quantitation of polar body mRNAs could allow for both oocyte ranking and embryo preferences in IVF applications. The transcriptome of a polar body has never been reported, in any organism. Eight total samples. There are 2 biological replicates of the following four conditions: pooled oocytes and their sister polar bodies and a single oocyte and its sister polar body.

Improved methods are needed to reliably and accurately evaluate oocyte quality prior to fertilization and transfer into the woman of human embryos created through in vitro fertilization (IVF). All oocytes that are retrieved and matured in culture are exposed to sperm with little in the way of evaluating the oocyte quality. Furthermore, embryos created through IVF are currently evaluated for developmental potential by morphology, a criterion lacking in quantitation and accuracy. With the recent s ...[more]

Genome-wide mapping of crossovers in all products of adult, single human female meioses reveals structural rearrangements of chromosomes and meiotic drive for recombinant chromatids

Project description:Meiotic recombination promotes genomic diversity by generating new combinations of alleles, while at the same time, maintaining genome stability by preventing chromosome missegregation and aneuploidy, such as Down Syndrome. We report here the first genome-wide maps of meiotic recombination in the human female meiosis. By utilizing information from all three meiotic products (oocyte, polar body 1 and polar body 2), our data reveal crossover rates that are in great excess (~40%) of recombination rate estimates from population-based studies. Recovery of all three meiotic products allowed us to identify structural defects to meiotic chromosomes that originate during meiosis, as well as true meiotic drive at meiosis II for the preferential exclusion of non-recombinant chromatids from the oocyte. Finally, we identify a novel chromosome segregation pattern reminiscent of 'inverted meiosis' that leads to chromosomally-balanced oocytes. The three products of meiosis from 13 oocytes and the gDNA from the five donors were analysed (total of 44 samples). Blank (negative) and positive (genomic DNA) control samples were provided for each DNA amplifiction run. No replicates were included as they were not available. No external references were included.

Expression data from prepubertal and adult derived porcine oocytes

Project description:Oocyte developmental potential is progressively obtained as females approach puberty. Therefore, oocytes derived from prepubertal females are less developmentally competent, indicated by decreased embryonic development, compared to oocytes derived from adult females. To investigate mechanisms involved in establishing oocyte cytoplasmic maturation and developmental competence, Affymetrix GeneChip microarrays were used. Keywords: oocyte developmental competence, maternal age Porcine oocytes obtained from prepubertal and adult females were collected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Oocytes were aspirated from 2 to 6 mm ovarian follicles and matured in vitro. Analysis of the first extruded polar body ensured that all oocytes used in the analyses had completed nuclear maturation.

Mice produced by mitotic reprogramming of sperm injected into haploid parthenogenotes

Project description:Sperm are highly differentiated and the activities that reprogram them for embryonic development during fertilization have historically been considered unique to the oocyte. We here challenge this view and demonstrate that mouse embryos in the mitotic cell cycle can also directly reprogram sperm for full term development. Developmentally incompetent haploid embryos (parthenogenotes) injected with sperm developed to produce healthy offspring at up to 24% of control rates, depending when in the embryonic cell cycle injection took place. This implies that most of the first embryonic cell cycle can be bypassed in sperm genome reprogramming for full development. Remodeling of histones and genomic 5'- methylcytosine and 5'-hydroxymethylcytosine following embryo injection were distinct from remodeling in fertilization and the resulting 2-cell embryos consistently possessed abnormal transcriptomes. These studies demonstrate plasticity in the reprogramming of terminally differentiated sperm nuclei and suggest that different epigenetic pathways or kinetics can establish totipotency. phICSI vs ICSI

Transcription profiling of immature germinal vesicle stage oocytes with mature metaphase II oocytes to identify and characterize the changed and stable transcripts during mouse oocyte maturation.

Project description:There is massive destruction of transcripts during maturation of mouse oocytes. The objective of this project was to identify and characterize the transcripts that are degraded versus those that are stable during the transcriptionally silent germinal vesicle (GV)-stage to metaphase II (MII)-stage transition using the microarray approach. A system for oocyte transcript amplification using both internal and 3'-poly(A) priming was utilized to minimize the impact of complex variations in transcript polyadenylation prevalent during this transition. Transcripts were identified and quantified using Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 v2.0 GeneChip. The significantly changed and stable transcripts were analyzed using Ingenuity Pathways Analysis and GenMAPP/MAPPFinder to characterize the biological themes underlying global changes in oocyte transcripts during maturation. It was concluded that the destruction of transcripts during the GV to MII transition is a selective rather than promiscuous process in mouse oocytes. In general, transcripts involved in processes that are associated with meiotic arrest at the GV-stage and the progression of oocyte maturation, such as oxidative phosphorylation, energy production, and protein synthesis and metabolism, were dramatically degraded. In contrast, transcripts encoding participants in signaling pathways essential for maintaining the unique characteristics of the MII-arrested oocyte, such as those involved in protein kinase pathways, were the most prominent among those stables.

Cordycepin Delays Postovulatory Aging of Mammalian Oocytes through Inhibition of Maternal mRNAs Degradation via DCP1A Polyadenylation Suppression

Project description:Postovulatory aging leads to the decline in oocyte quality and subsequent impairment of embryonic development, thereby reducing the success rates of assisted reproductive technology (ART). Nevertheless, potential preventative strategies to improve aging oocytes quality and the associated underlying mechanisms warrant further investigation. In this study, we identify cordycepin, an natural nucleoside analogue, as having the potential to restore the postovulatory aging-induced decline in oocyte quality, including aspects such as oocyte fragmentation, embryonic developmental competence, spindle/chromosomes morphology and mitochondrial function. Proteomic and RNA sequencing analyses revealed that cordycepin inhibited the degradation of several crucial maternal proteins and mRNAs caused by aging. Mechanistically, cordycepin was found to suppress the elevation of DCP1A protein levels by inhibiting polyadenylation during postovulatory aging, consequently impeding the decapping of maternal mRNAs. In humans, the increased degradation of DCP1A and total mRNA during aging was also inhibited by cordycepin. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that cordycepin may prevent postovulatory aging of mammalian oocytes by inhibition of maternal mRNAs degradation via DCP1A polyadenylation suppression, thereby promoting the successful rates of ART procedure.

small non-coding RNA sequencing of human cumulus cells from patients with or without Diminished ovarian reserve

Project description:This group consist of human embryologists from the reproductive medical center for of the 1st affiliated hospital of Anhui Medical University. Our research is specifically focused on women ovarian reserve and the relevant female infertility. By deep sequencing, the current experiment determined the small non-coding RNA profile of cumulus cells from patients with or without diminished ovarian reserve undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation and in vitro fertilization treatment. Ovarian follicles, which are a densely-packed shell of granulosa cells that contains an immature or mature oocyte, are above all responsible for the development, maturation, and release of mature egg for fertilization. They are also responsible for synthesizing and secreting hormones that are essential for follicular development, menstrual and estrous cycle, maintenance of the reproductive tracts and their functions, development of female secondary sex characteristics, and metabolism. During folliculogenesis, ovarian granulosa cells surrounding the oocyte differentiate into mural granulosa cells, involved in gonadal steroidogenesis, and into cumulus cells, which are ovulated with the oocyte at ovulation. In the present study, we described the small non-coding RNA expression profile to characterize the ensemble of both known and novel ncRNAs expressed in cumulus cells from patients with or without Diminished ovarian reserve, by using high-throughput Solexa technology.

Proteomic-based identification of oocyte maturation-related proteins in mouse GV oocytes

Project description:In this study, we applied 1D SDS-PAGE and RP-LC-MS/MS to investigate the proteins stored in GV mouse oocytes. This high-performance strategy allowed us to define a set of 1405 different mouse GV oocyte proteins. It is confirmed that this study will help us to understand the diverse biological processes occurring in mouse oocytes and during early embryo development. However, compared with proteomic analysis of other cells and tissues, such as embryonic stems from cells and liver, the proteins identified in mature mouse oocytes were limited. This was mainly due to the fact that oocytes obtained from each mouse were very limited. We believe that the catalog of maternal proteins presented in this article is a starting point and we anticipate that more researches on the oocyte proteome will deduce most of the maternal proteins.

Mitochondrial supplementation at fertilization enhances early developmental outcome

Project description:Competent oocytes can be discriminated by BCB staining. Positive stained oocytes are considered more competent than BCB negative oocyte, and injection of BCB+ oocyte extracted mitochondria into BCB negative oocytse can increase fertilisation and blastocyst rate. Here we have analysed the impact of mitochondrial supplementation on subsequent blastocyst transcriptome using agilent one color microarray that is specificly design to study the porcine embryo preimplantation period. Blastocysts were produced by intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) from BCB positive and BCB negative oocytes as well as BCB negative oocytes supplemented with mitochondrial extract during ICSI (mICSI), and 3-4 single blatocyst transcriptomes were analysed for each group. 3-4 single blastocysts were analysed at the RNA level after whole transcriptome amplification, and level of gene expression was compared between groups, i.e ICSI BCB+ blastocysts (4), ICSI BCB- blastocysts (3) and mICSI BCB- blastocysts (4).

Human granulosa

Project description:We are human embryologists from center for reproductive medicinel of Anhui Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical University, and we have the expertise to do all that properly in humans. By deep sequencing, the current experiment determined the miRNA profile of two intrafollicular somatic cell types: CRCs and COCs, isolated from women undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation and in vitro fertilization treatment. Ovarian follicles, which are a densely-packed shell of granulosa cells that contains an immature or mature oocyte, are above all responsible for the development, maturation, and release of mature egg for fertilization. They are also responsible for synthesizing and secreting hormones that are essential for follicular development, menstrual and estrous cycle, maintenance of the reproductive tracts and their functions, development of female secondary sex characteristics, and metabolism. During folliculogenesis, ovarian granulosa cells surrounding the oocyte differentiate into mural granulosa cells, involved in gonadal steroidogenesis, and into cumulus cells, which are ovulated with the oocyte at ovulation. These cumulus cells derive from the same population of early follicles, but differentiate into two distinct groups of cells: 1) Those directly lie on the zona pellucida are composed of the so called corona radiata cells.(CRCs) 2) The other group surrounds the CRCs and consists of more numerous cells, forming the so called cumulus oophorus cells (COCs). In the present study, we described the miRNA expression profile to characterize the ensemble of both known and novel miRNAs expressed in CRCs, as well as in COCs, by using high-throughput Solexa technology.

DNA methylation in mammalian placentas

Project description:Over the last 20-80 million years the mammalian placenta has taken on a variety of morphologies through both divergent and convergent evolution. Recently we have shown that the human placenta genome has a unique epigenetic pattern of large partially methylated domains (PMDs) and highly methylation domains (HMDs) with gene body DNA methylation positively correlating with level of gene expression. In order to determine the evolutionary conservation of DNA methylation patterns and transcriptional regulatory programs in the placenta, we performed a genome-wide methylome (MethylC-seq) analysis of human, rhesus macaque, squirrel monkey, mouse, dog, horse, and cow placentas as well as opossum extraembryonic membrane. We found that, similar to human placenta, mammalian placentas and opossum extraembryonic membrane have globally lower levels of methylation compared to somatic tissues. However, not all species have clear PMD/HMDs in their placentas. Instead what is conserved is higher methylation over the bodies of genes involved in mitosis, vesicle-mediated transport, protein phosphorylation, and chromatin modification compared with the rest of the genome. As in human placenta, high gene body methylation is associated with higher gene expression across species. Analysis of DNA methylation in mouse and cow oocytes shows the same pattern of gene body methylation over many of the same genes as in the placenta, suggesting that this conserved pattern of active gene body methylation of the placenta may be established very early in development.
