Project description:To investigate the molecular mechanism of PCOS underlying the hyperandrogenic phenotype, prenatally androgenized (PNA) mice were used to mimic this phenotype in women with PCOS. Methylated DNA binding domain sequencing (MBD-seq) and RNA-seq were performed on PNA mice (n=6) and control group (n=4) and validations were applied on ovarian samples from PNA mice (n=6) and control group (n=6) using MSP (methylation-specific PCR) and qPCR. The immunohistochemistry (IHC) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) profiling was separately conducted on tissue sections and granular cells of PNA mice (n=6) and control group (n=6). We identified 857 genes with differently methylated promoters and 3317 differently expressed genes in PNA mice and control group. We found that PCOS group had a down-regulation of Dnmt1 gene expression, accompanied by global hypomethylation compared with the control group. The promoter regions of Map3k1(mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 1) and Map1lc3ka (microtubule-associated protein1 light chain 3) were hypomethylated, accompanied by up-regulation of their mRNA expression, which may be involved in the regulation of PCOS through MAPK/p53 pathway activition and autophagy alteration.

Project description:Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine disorder of the reproductive and metabolic axis in women during the reproductive age. In this study, we used a rat model exhibiting reproductive and metabolic abnormalities similar to human PCOS to unravel the molecular mechanisms underlining this complex syndrome. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were implanted with a silicone capsule continuous-releasing 5α-dehydrotestestrone (DHT) per day for 12 weeks to mimic the hyperandrogenic state in women with PCOS, and the control (CTL) groups received an empty capsule. The animals were euthanized at 15 weeks of age and the ovarian cortex tissues of both groups were used for transcriptome profile analysis.

Project description:This experiment was designed to study if there are differences in gene expression in the adipose tissue of women affected by polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) compared to non-hyperandrogenic women. PCOS is the most common endocrinopathy in women of reproductive age, and is characterized by hyperandrogenism and chronic anovulation. This disease is frequently associated with obesity, insulin resistance, and defects in insulin secretion, predisposing these women to type 2 diabetes, atherosclerosis, and cardiovascular disease. We have applied high-density oligonucleotide arrays to omental adipose tissue samples obtained from eight morbidly obese PCOS patients and seven morbidly obese non-PCOS women at the time of bariatric surgery.

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is typically characterized by oligo or anovulation, hyperandrogenism and polycystic ovarian morphology, affecting 5-20% of women of reproductive age [1]. It has drawn significant attention as a major cause of anovulatory infertility and the syndrome of metabolic, reproductive and obstetrical disorders [2 ,+]. Due to heterogeneous clinical features and unclear pathogenesis of PCOS, the diagnosis and treatment strategies remain a matter of debate. To better understand the complex follicular development environment in PCOS, we conducted a TMT-based quantitative proteomic study to compare the composition of proteins, pathways and molecular functions of FF from lean and overweight/obese women with PCOS and that of healthy controls.

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common form of infertility in women. The causes of PCOS are not yet understood and both genetics and early-life exposure have been considered as candidates. With regard to the latter, circulating androgens are elevated in mid-late gestation in women with PCOS, potentially exposing offspring to elevated androgens in utero; daughters of women with PCOS are at increased risk for developing this disorder. Consistent with these clinical observations, prenatal androgenization (PNA) of several species recapitulates many phenotypes observed in PCOS. There is increasing evidence that symptoms associated with PCOS, including elevated luteinizing hormone (LH) (and presumably gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)) pulse frequency emerge during the pubertal transition. We utilized translating ribosomal affinity purification coupled with RNA sequencing to examine GnRH neuron mRNAs from prepubertal (3wk) and adult female control and PNA mice. Prominent in GnRH neurons were transcripts associated with protein synthesis and cellular energetics, in particular oxidative phosphorylation. The GnRH neuron transcript profile was affected more by the transition from prepuberty to adulthood than by PNA treatment, however PNA did change the developmental trajectory of GnRH neurons. This included families of transcripts related to both protein synthesis and oxidative phosphorylation, which were more prevalent in adults than in prepubertal mice but were blunted in PNA adults. These findings suggest that prenatal androgen exposure can program alterations in the translatome of GnRH neurons, providing a mechanism independent of changes in the genetic code for altered expression.

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a highly prevalent endocrine-metabolic disorder. Epigenetic etiology is suggested to play an important role in PCOS pathogenesis, since it is hard to elucidate completely by genetic variations. Exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) have recently been identified as a novel mechanism of intercellular communication, and a more stable regulator of gene expression compared with free miRNAs. The aim of this study is to detect the different expression profile of plasma exosomal miRNAs between PCOS patients and healthy controls.

Project description:To investigate the molecular mechanisms of miRNA-mRNA expression underlying this phenotype, ovarian samples from PNA and control mice were subjected to microRNA-seq and RNA-seq. Differential expression analyses were carried out to identify differentially expressed microRNAs (DEmiRs) and differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Target genes of DEmiRs were predicted by miRTarbase and visualization by Cytoscape. Functional annotation and pathway enrichment analyses for the DEGs and target genes were performed through the DAVID database. Then, to reveal the interactions involved in the pathogenesis of PCOS, the integrated analysis of miRNA-mRNA was performed in PNA mice vs. controls and granulosa cells (GCs) of PCOS women vs. health women. Protein–protein interaction (PPI) networks were established for these negatively regulated pairs via the STRING database. The expression and correlation of potential miRNAs and targets were further validated using RT-qPCR in more PNA mice and clinical human granulosa cells.
