Aging of mouse spermatogonial stem cells by Wnt7b-Jnk pathway activation [ChIP-seq]

ABSTRACT: Because spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are virtually immortal by serial transplantation, SSC decrease in aged testes is considered to be caused by deteriorated microenvironment. Here we report cell-intrinsic mode of SSC aging. SSCs cultured for 5 years proliferate more actively than young SSCs and showed enhanced glycolytic activity but remain euploid and exhibited stable androgenetic imprinting patterns. Moreover, the aged SSCs kept constant SSC activity despite shortened telomeres. The increased proliferative activity of aged SSCs was caused by Wnt7b expression, which likely occurred due to decreased polycomb complex2 activity. Aberrant Wnt7b expression not only decreased reactive oxygen species levels and mitochondria activity but also stimulated glycolysis via c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation. Analysis of SSCs in Klotho aging mouse model also confirmed hyperactivation of JNK pathway and increased glycolysis. Therefore, not only SSC microenvironment but also intrinsic activation of Wnt7b-mediated glycolysis plays important roles in SSC aging.

Skeletal Stem Cell Aging

Project description:Skeletal aging and disease are associated with a misbalance in the opposing actions of osteoblasts and osteoclasts that are responsible for maintaining the integrity of bone tissues. Here, we show through detailed functional and single-cell genomic studies that intrinsic aging of bona fide mouse skeletal stem cells (SSCs) alters bone marrow niche signaling and skews bone and blood lineage differentiation leading to fragile bones that regenerate poorly. Aged SSCs have diminished bone and cartilage forming potential but produce higher frequencies of stromal lineages that express high levels of pro-inflammatory and pro-resorptive cytokines. Single-cell transcriptomic studies reveal a distinct population of SSCs in aged mice that gradually outcompete their younger counterparts in the bone marrow niche. While systemic exposure to a youthful circulation through heterochronic parabiosis reduced local expression of inflammatory cytokines, it did not reverse the diminished osteochondrogenic activity of aged SSCs and was insufficient to improve bone mass and skeletal-healing parameters in aged mice. Hematopoietic reconstitution of aged mice with young hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) also did not improve bone integrity and repair. We find that deficient bone regeneration in aged mice could only be reversed by the local application of a combinatorial treatment that re-activates aged SSCs and simultaneously abates crosstalk to hematopoietic cells favoring an inflammatory milieu. This treatment expanded aged SSC pools, reduced osteoclast activity, and enhanced bone healing to youthful levels. Our findings provide mechanistic insight into the complex, multifactorial mechanisms underlying skeletal aging and offer new prospects for rejuvenating the aged skeletal system.

Transcriptomic profiling of young and aged spermatogonial stem cells (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Spermatogonial stem cells (SSC), the foundation of spermatogenesis and male fertility, possess lifelong self-renewal activity. Aging leads to the decline in stem cell function and increased risk of paternal age-related genetic diseases. In the present study, we performed a comparative genomic analysis of mouse SSC (Oct4-GFP+/KIT-) and differentiating progenitors (Oct4-GFP+/KIT+) isolated from young and aged testes. Our transcriptome data revealed enormous complexity of expressed coding and non-coding RNAs and alternative splicing regulation during SSC differentiation. Further comparison between young and aged SSCs suggested these differentiation programs were affected by aging. We identified aberrant expression of genes associated with meiosis and TGF-β signaling , alteration in alternative splicing regulation and differential expression of specific lncRNAs such as Fendrr.

Multiomics Approach to Profiling Development of the Spermatogonial Stem Cell Niche Focused on Sertoli cell Maturation

Project description:Spermatogonial stem cells are the foundation of spermatogenesis and as such can serve as a tool for the treatment of infertility in prepubertal cancer survivors. Spermatogonial stem cells are unique as they develop from primordial germ cells (PGCs), which colonize the developing tubules as immature SSC precursors. It has been controversial, when SSCs are maturing to an adult-like stem cell and recent research has found that prepubertal SSCs are actually metabolically distinct from adult SSCs until puberty. Sertoli cells picture a major part of the SSC niche and undergo drastic changes with puberty and polarize to compartmentalize the seminiferous epithelium with formation of tight junctions to a tight basal part where SSCs reside and an apical part with more differentiated stages of spermatogenesis. In the study were mapping the progression of Sertoli cells maturation events to the metabolic changes SSCs undergo during prepubertal development.

Metabolic Transitions Define the Spermatogonial Stem Cell Maturation [human]

Project description:Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are the basis of spermatogenesis and therefore of male fertility. Transplantation of SSCs, isolated before treatment for cancer, and cultured in vitro, could be a potential treatment for infertility. Such clinical usage requires an understanding of the metabolic requirements during SSC development. Adult SSCs mainly use glycolysis for their maintenance in the mouse and human. However, SSCs embryonic precursors, primordial germ cells (PGCs), require a high mitochondrial metabolism in the mouse. Similarly, pig neonatal SSC precursors have been described to rely on oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) for the first 2 months of development, when a transition to an adult SSC metabolic phenotype is initiated. When and if such a metabolic transition occurs in humans is ambiguous. We show here for the first time using single-cell RNA sequencing, that human PGCs and prepubertal human spermatogonia have an enrichment of oxidative phosphorylation associated genes, which is downregulated by 13 years of age. Furthermore, we show, that similar metabolic differences are detectable after birth also in mouse. The metabolic transition in humans with puberty was preceded by a drastic change of SSC shape. Using a pig model, we reveal that these metabolic changes could be regulated by IGF-1 dependent signaling via mTOR and proteasomic inhibition. Understanding the metabolic requirements of SSCs during development is crucial to establish a culture system and enable clinical use of SSCs.
