Normal fertile Spermatozoal RNA Profiles

ABSTRACT: Numerous studies have shown the potential of spermatozoal RNAs to delineate failures of spermatogenic pathways in infertile samples. However, the RNA contribution of normal fertile samples still needs to be established in relation to transcripts consistently present in human spermatozoa. We report here the spermatozoal transcript profiles characteristic of 24 normally fertile individuals. RNA was extracted from the purified sperm cells of ejaculate and hybridized to Illumina Human-8 BeadChip Microarrays

Transcription profiling by array of human sperm from normospermic and teratozoospermic individuals

Project description:Normal human spermatogenesis concludes with the formation of large numbers of morphologically well developed spermatozoa. While transcriptionally quiescent these cells carry an RNA payload that reflects the final spermiogenic phase of transcription. We report here the spermatozoal transcript profiles characteristic of normally fertile individuals and infertile males suffering from a consistent and severe teratozoospermia in which under 4% of spermatozoa are morphologically normal. RNA was extracted from the purified sperm cells of ejaculate and hybridized to Affymetrix U133 (v2) Microarrays. Spermatozoal RNAs were prepared from the semen samples of 21 individuals. An asymmetric dual block design was adopted with biological replicates in both blocks. 13 semen samples were assessed from normally fertile males who had fathered at least one child. 8 semen samples were assessed from infertile individuals with a severe and consistent heterogeneous teratozoospermia who showed no other abnormal semen parameters.

Characterization of mRNA transcripts in spermatozoa of fertile men

Project description:Accumulated evidence proves that mature spermatozoa contain a complex yet specific mRNA, which could provide information of the past events of spermatogenesis. Our aim was to quantitatively microdissect these mRNA transcripts by a digital approach. SAGE was used to study the mRNA transcripts from ejaculate of an individual and of a pool of 10 fertile men. SAGE library from individual produced 20237 raw tags representing 2459 unique tags (those tags that show at least twice in the library), and that from pooled 10 men generated 21052 raw tags representing 2712 unique tags. The SAGE view of ejaculate of fertile men has revealed a large number of transcripts, which occur in steady frequencies and probably have important implications in the spermatogenesis and fertilization.

Spermatozoal mRNA is reproducibly detected in purified D. melanogaster sperm.

Project description:It is now well established that mature mammalian spermatozoa carry a population of mRNA molecules, at least some of which are transferred to the oocyte at fertilisation. However, the function of the sperm transcriptome remains largely unclear. To shed light on the evolutionary conservation of this feature of sperm biology, we analysed highly purified populations of mature sperm from the fruitfly, Drosophila melanogaster. As with mammalian sperm, we found a consistently enriched population of mRNA molecules that are not likely to be derived from contaminating somatic cells or immature sperm. Using tagged transcripts for three of the spermatozoal mRNAs, we demonstrate that they are transferred to the oocyte at fertilisation and can be detected at least until the onset of zygotic gene expression. We find a remarkable conservation in the functional annotations associated with fly and human spermatozoal mRNAs, in particular a highly significant enrichment for transcripts encoding Ribosomal Proteins. The identification of a conserved set of spermatozoal transcripts opens the possibility of using the power of Drosophila genetics to address the function of this enigmatic class of molecules.

Transcription profiling of of human epididymal gene expression in the caput epididymides of infertile and fertile patients

Project description:Caput epididymides biopsies from 4 patients suffering from non-obstructive azoospermia and from 4 patients with active spermatogenesis were compared. 414 genes in the caput epididymides were differentially regulated in infertile men by at least a 2-fold change as compared to the fertile men. Experiment Overall Design: Comparative caput epididymal gene expression from 4 patients with either active spermatogenesis (reference samples) or non-obstructive azoospermia. On each array, infertile tissue were compared to fertile tissue. Whenever the fertile tissues were labeled with cyanine 5 (see samples entitled "Patients 1 and 2" and "Patients 7 and 8"), the fluorescence ratios were swapped. Data was normalized using a locally weighted regression Lowess method and genes were considered differentially expressed in infertile sample versus fertile sample if there was at least a 2-fold change in 3 patients out of 4.
