Project description:The objective was to determine age-associated changes in the transcriptome of granulosa cells recovered from the dominant follicle at the time of selection. Granulosa cells were collected from the dominant follicle of aged and young cows after ovariectomy (15 ±1.5 years, n=3 and 6 ± 1.1 years, n=3), or ultrasound-guided follicle aspiration (16±2.1 years, n=4 and 7±1.2 years, 6 ± 1.1 years, n=4) 3-days after ovulation (Day 0). Messenger-RNA was extracted, amplified, labeled with florescent dyes, and hybridized with bovine-specific microarrays (GEO accession # GPL13226). Target intensities were analyzed to determine differential gene expression in granulosa cells from aged vs. young cows. A total 169 genes were differentially expressed (⥠2 fold-change; Pâ¤0.05) between age groups. In conclusion, granulosa cells collected at the time of selection of the dominant follicle exhibited age-related changes in the transcriptome that may explain follicle-associated loss of oocyte competence in aged cows. Granulosa cells of the dominant follicle at the time of selection (aged vs.young cows). Three biological replicates (each composed of one aged and one young cow). 3 Three technical replicate (dye swap). One biological or technical replicate per array.

Project description:The aim of the study was to describe and characterise the phosphodiesterases in the human ovary. Part of the study included results from analysis of mRNA microarray data from follicles and granulosa cells from three previously published studies(E-MEXP-3783, E-MTAB-2203, E-MTAB-1670). In addition, we used data from two unpublished studies with granulosa cells isolated from 4-6 mm antral follicles and preantral follicles. The included studies covered the folliculogenesis from the preantral stage to after induction of ovulation. For comparison, previously published dataset from heart (E-GEOD-22253, E-MEXP-2654), parietal cortex (E-GEOD-35977), cerebellum (E-GEOD-35974), lung (E-GEOD-43458), and peripheral blood mononucleated cells(E-GEOD-23832) were included in addition to various tissues from Affymetrix's sample data set.

Project description:The objective of the study was to determine how maternal age influences the transcriptome of the dominant follicle during the preovulatory period. We tested the hypotheses that delayed ovulation in aged cows is associated with 1) altered gene expression of granulosa cells of preovulatory follicles (24 h after LH treatment) and 2) decreased synthesis of progesterone by granulosa cells of the preovulatory follicle. Granulosa cells of preovulatory follicles obtained 24 h after LH treatment from aged Hereford cows (19.0 ±2.5 years; n=3) were compared to those from young cows (9.0 ± 0.6 years; n=3) using bovine specific microarrays (EmbryoGENE-EMBV3; GPL13226). Results were confirmed by RT-qPCR. A total of 1340 genes or gene isoforms were expressed differentially (â¥2-fold change; p ⤠0.05) in aged cows vs. young cows (daughters of aged cows). In conclusion, transcriptome analysis of granulosa cells from aged cows revealed a delayed or suboptimal response to the preovulatory LH stimulus, represented by delayed cellular differentiation, luteinization and progesterone synthesis. Granulosa cells of the dominant preovulatory follicle 24 h after LH treatment were compared between aged vs.young cows. Three biological replicates (each composed of one aged and one young cow). 3 Three technical replicate (dye swap). One biological or technical replicate per array.

Project description:The LH surge triggers dramatic transcriptional changes in genes associated with ovulation and luteinization. The present study investigated the spatiotemporal expression of nuclear factor interleukin-3 (NFIL3), a transcriptional regulator of the bZIP transcription factor superfamily, and its potential role in the ovary during the periovulatory period. NFIL3, also known as E4-binding protein 4 or NFIL3/E4BP4, was originally identified as a transcriptional repressor based on its DNA-binding activity at the promoter of the gene encoding the adenovirus E4 protein. Immature female rats were injected with PMSG, treated with hCG, and ovaries or granulosa cells were collected at various times after hCG. Nfil3 mRNA was highly induced both in intact ovaries and granulosa cells after hCG treatment. In situ hybridization demonstrated that Nfil3 mRNA was highly induced in theca-interstitial cells at 4-8 h after hCG, localized to granulosa cells at 12 h, and decreased at 24 h. Over-expression of NFIL3 in granulosa cells inhibited the induction of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (Ptgs2), progesterone receptor (Pgr), epiregulin (Ereg), and amphiregulin (Areg) and down regulated levels of prostaglandin E2. The inhibitory effect on Ptgs2 induction was reversed by NFIL3 siRNA treatment. In theca-interstitial cells the expression of hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase 15-(NAD) (Hpgd) was also inhibited by NFIL3 over-expression. Data from luciferase assays demonstrated that NFIL3 over-expression decreased the induction of the Ptgs2 and Areg promoter activity. EMSA and ChIP analyses indicated that NFIL3 binds to the promoter region containing the DNA binding sites of CREB and C/EBP?. In summary, hCG induction of NFIL3 expression may modulate the process of ovulation and theca-interstitial and granulosa cell differentiation by regulating expression of PTGS2, PGR, AREG, EREG, and HPGD, potentially through interactions with CREB and C/EBP? on their target gene promoters. The granulosa cells were exposed to Ad- NFIL3 or Ad-GFP at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 50 pfu/cell. Two hours later, Medium was replaced with fresh Opti-MEM medium. At 24 h after adenovirus exposure, granulosa cells were treated with FSK + PMA for 6 h before collection for RNA isolation using a RNeasy kit according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Qiagen Inc., Valencia, CA). Five micrograms of total RNA were used as a template for cDNA synthesis by the University of Kentucky Microarray Core facility as described previously (47). The Affymetrix Rat 230-2.0 oligonucleotide array sets were hybridized, washed, and scanned using Affymetrix equipment and protocols (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). The DNA microarray assays were performed on total RNA pooled from granulosa cells obtained from 3 separate experiments. The changes observed by DNA microarray analysis were confirmed by real-time PCR for a select subset of genes. Affymetrix GCS 3000 7G scanner was used.

Project description:Two major factors contributing to reduced fertility is use of exogenous hormones and old age. We use mouse model to study transcriptional and cell-cell communication changes upon superovulation and ageing in female reproductive cells - oocytes (OC) - and somatic cells - granulosa (GC) - surrounding them. In this experiment, we are testing how different GC transcriptional profiles correlate with embryo quality. 3M old C57BL6/J mice were naturally or superovulated and COCs singularized as described above. Granulosa cells were immediately flash frozen and matched oocytes were divided into individual drops of CARD media under mineral oil for fertilization. The oocytes were incubated in 37oC, 5% CO2 incubator for 30-40 min prior to fertilization. Frozen Mus musculus (C57BL6/J) male sperm straws were thawed and capacitated in Fertiup media for 30 min. Fertilization was achieved by combining 2.5 µl of activated sperm with 20 µl CARD media drop containing a single oocyte and incubated at 37oC, 5% CO2 for 3 hours. Then, oocytes were individually washed in Human Tubal Fluid (HTF) media drops and transferred to 20 µl HFT drops for overnight culture. After 24 hours, fertilization rate was evaluated by 2-cell stage and embryos transferred to G1+ media for further development. Early morula stage embryos were continuously collected based on observation 62-64 h post-fertilization. For late blastocysts, fertilization media was additionally changed to G2+ after 48h post- fertilization and blastocysts collected at 108h post-fertilization. For collection, the embryos were washed in DPBS and flash frozen. Granulosa cells and embryo samples were further processed by Smart-seq2, the cDNA amplification PCR cycle number for embryos was 16-17.

Project description:The fertility of dairy cows is challenged during early lactation and better nutritional strategies need to be developed to address this issue. Combined supplementation of folic acid and vitamin B12 improves energy metabolism in the dairy cow during early lactation. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to explore the effects of this supplement on gene expression in granulosa cells from the dominant follicle during the postpartum period. Multiparous Holstein cows received weekly intramuscular injection of 320 mg folic acid and 10 mg vitamin B12 (treated group) beginning 24 (SD 4) d before calving until 56 d after calving, whereas the control group received saline. The urea plasma concentration was significantly decreased during the pre-calving period, and the concentration of both folate and vitamin B12 were increased in treated animals. Milk production and dry matter intake were not significantly different between the two groups. Plasma concentrations of folates and vitamin B12 were increased in vitamin-treated animals. Daily dry matter intake was not significantly different between the 2 groups before (13.5 kg SE 0.5) and after (23.6 kg SE 0.9) calving. Average energy-corrected milk tended to be greater in vitamin-treated cows, 39.7 (SE 1.4) and 38.1 (SE 1.3) kg/d for treated and control cows, respectively. After calving, average plasma concentration of BHBA tended to be lower in cows injected with the vitamin supplement, 0.47 (SE 0.04) vs. 0.55 (SE 0.03) for treated and control cows, respectively. The ovarian follicle ? 12 mm in diameter was collected by ovarian pick-up after estrus synchronization. Recovered follicular fluid volumes were greater in the vitamin-treated group. A microarray platform was used to investigate the impact of treatment on gene expression of granulosa cells. Lower expression of genes involved in the cell cycle and higher expression of genes associated with granulosa cell differentiation prior to ovulation were observed. Selected candidate genes were analyzed by reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Although the effects of intramuscular injections of folic acid and vitamin B12 on lactational performance and metabolic status of animals were limited, Ingenuity Pathway Analysis of gene expression in granulosa cells suggests a stimulation of cell differentiation in vitamin-treated cows, which may be the result of an increase in LH secretion. Two conditions experiment (Control and Treated). Granulosa cells from the 66h post second PGF2alpha injection. Biological replicates: 3 from each time point. Two technical replicates for each comparison (dye-swap).

Project description:We investigate the role of Snf2l in ovaries by characterizing a mouse bearing an inactivating deletion on the ATPase domain of Snf2l (Ex6DEL). Snf2l mutant mice produce significantly fewer eggs than control mice when superovulated. Thus, gonadotropin stimulation leads to a significant deficit in secondary follicles and an increase in abnormal antral follicles. We profiled the expression of granulosa cells from Snf2l WT and Ex6DEL mice treated with pregnant mares' serum gonadotropin followed by human chorionic gonadotropin Granulosa cells from either Snf2l WT or Ex6DEL mice treated with PMSG followed by hCG were collected at 0h and 4h post-hCG. Each array includes granulosa cells pooled from 5 mice.
