Gene expression in extra-embryonic tissues flushed out at D18 from heifers, early and late lactating cows

ABSTRACT: Evaluate the influence of maternal metabolism on gene expression profiles from extra-embryonic tissues at D18 Keyword: Holstein Heifers and Postpartum dairy cows, metabolism and energy status, elongation and gastrulation, extra-embryonic tissues, transcriptome, correlations between genes & metabolites? 8 replicates in GH, 11 replicates in ELC and 10 replicates in LLC (extra-embryonic tissues) per group of female (N=3) were hybridized (total N=29) against a placental reference that hybridized itself to 99% of the array. Hybridization design: 6 microarrays per experiment (N=5) were randomly hybridized to the EET from 2 conceptuses originating either from development in heifers, ELC or LLC. Extra-embryonic tissues were systematically labelled with Cy3 and Reference in Cy5.

We analyzed the change in gene expression related to dam physiological status in day (D)18 embryos from growing heifers (GH), early lactating cows (ELC), and late lactating cows (LLC). Dam energy metabolism was characterized by measurement of circulating concentrations of insulin, glucose, IGF-1, nonesterified fatty acids, β-hydroxybutyrate, and urea before embryo flush. The metabolic parameters were related to differential gene expression in the extraembryonic tissues by correlation analysis. E ...[more]

Project description:Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) is the most efficient cell reprogramming technique available, especially when working with bovine species. Although SCNT blastocysts performed equally well or better than controls in the weeks following embryo transfer at Day 7, elongation and gastrulation defects were observed prior to implantation. To understand the developmental implications of embryonic/extra-embryonic interactions, the morphological and molecular features of elongating and gastrulating tissues were analysed. At Day 18, 30 SCNT conceptuses were compared to 20 controls (AI and IVP: 10 conceptuses each); one-half of the SCNT conceptuses appeared normal while the other half showed signs of atypical elongation and gastrulation. SCNT was also associated with a high incidence of discordance in embryonic and extraembryonic patterns, as evidenced by morphological and molecular M-bM-^@M-^XM-bM-^@M-^XuncouplingM-bM-^@M-^YM-bM-^@M-^Y. Elongation appeared to be secondarily affected; only 3 of 30 conceptuses had abnormally elongated shapes and there were very few differences in gene expression when they were compared to the controls. However, some of these differences could be linked to defects in microvilli formation or extracellular matrix composition and could thus impact extra-embryonic functions. In contrast to elongation, gastrulation stages included embryonic defects that likely affected the hypoblast, the epiblast, or the early stages of their differentiation. When taking into account SCNT conceptus somatic origin, i.e. the reprogramming efficiency of each bovine ear fibroblast (Low: 0029, Med: 7711, High: 5538), we found that embryonic abnormalities or severe embryonic/extra-embryonic uncoupling were more tightly correlated to embryo loss at implantation than were elongation defects. Alternatively, extra-embryonic differences between SCNT and control conceptuses at Day 18 were related to molecular plasticity (high efficiency/high plasticity) and subsequent pregnancy loss. Finally, because it alters redifferentiation processes in vivo, SCNT reprogramming highlights temporally and spatially restricted interactions among cells and tissues in a unique way. Amplified material from each extra-embryonic tissue was indirectly labelled using "random" hexamers. One independent target per tissue was generated and hybridised onto one array. 10 measurements per reproduction mode were generated.

Project description:P. syringae pv. phaseolicola, the causal agent of halo blight disease in bean, produces a toxin known as phaseolotoxin, whose synthesis involves the product of some of the genes found within the Pht region. This region, considered a pathogenicity island, comprises 23 genes arranged in five transcriptional units; two single-gene units (argK, phtL) and three arranged as operons (phtA, phtD, phtM), most with unknown function. In P. syringae pv. phaseolicola, maximal expression of most of the genes encoded in the Pht region and the synthesis of phaseolotoxin require the product of the phtL gene, which has been proposed to have a regulatory function. In order to evaluate the role of phtL gene in P. syringae pv. phaseolicola, we performed a comparative transcriptional analysis with the wild type and a phtL- mutant strains using microarrays. The microarray data analysis showed that PhtL regulates the expression not only of genes within the Pht region, but also alters the expression of genomic genes related with the iron-acquisition system, pathogenicity, oxidative stress and virulence. This study suggests the possible relation of the PhtL protein with the iron response genes and with the pathogenicity and or virulence of this bacterium. The microarrays used in this study correspond to an assembled DNA microarray of P. syringae pv. phaseolicola NPS3121 previously reported (GEO accession number GPL7115) (HernM-CM-!ndez-Morales et al., 2009). This microarray consist of 1911 probes, with an average length 2.4 Kbp, representing 1X the genome of P. syringae pv. phaseolicola NPS3121, as well as several PCR products corresponding to various known genes, which were printed as controls. Each microarray experiment was repeated six times (two technical replicates with the same RNA samples and three biological replicates using RNA isolated from a different culture). cDNA synthesis, labeling, hybridization, washing, and chip scanning were performed at the Microarray Core Facility at Cinvestav-Langebio. Hybridized microarray slides were scanned (GenePix 4000, Axon Instruments, Inc) at a 10 um resolution adjusting the laser and gain parameters to obtain similar levels of fluorescence intensity in both channels. The spot intensities were quantified using Axon GenePrix Pro 6.0 image analysis software. First, an automatic spot finding and quantification option of the software was used. Subsequently, all spots were inspected individually and in some cases, the spot diameters were corrected or the spots were removed from the analysis. The mean of the signals and the median of backgrounds were used for further analysis. Raw data were imported into the R.2.2.1 software. Background signals were subtracted using the Robust Multichip Analysis (RMA) whereas the normalization of the signal intensities within slides was carried out using M-bM-^@M-^\print-tip loessM-bM-^@M-^] method and the LIMMA package. Normalized data were log2 transformed and then fitted into mixed model ANOVAs using the Mixed procedure. The p-values of the phtL effects were adjusted for by the False Discovery Rate Method M-bM-^@M-^\FDRM-bM-^@M-^]. Changes in signal intensity of M-BM-11.5-fold or higher/lower between phtL- mutant and wild type were highly significant (FDR, p-value M-bM-^IM-$0.05), however we focused only in differential expressed genes that fell within the more traditional criteria, which is the cut-off threshold for up-regulated (M-bM-^IM-%1.8) and down-regulated genes (M-bM-^IM-$0.50).
