Nucleoporin107 mediates female sexual differentiation via Dsx

ABSTRACT: We recently identified a missense mutation in Nucleoporin107 (Nup107; D447N) underlying XX-ovarian-dysgenesis (XX-OD), a disorder characterized by underdeveloped and dysfunctional ovaries. Specific knockdown of Nup107 in the somatic gonadal cells and moreover, modelling of the human mutation in Drosophila result in ovarian-dysgenesis-like phenotypes in female flies. The aberrant phenotypes in larval and adult ovaries compromised for Nup107 are associated with hyperactivation of BMP signalling. Transcriptomic analysis identified the somatic sex-determination gene Doublesex (dsx) and the extracellular metalloprotease AdamTS-A as targets of Nup107. Either loss or gain of Dsx in the gonadal soma is sufficient to respectively mimic or rescue the phenotypes induced by Nup107 loss. Furthermore, adamTS-A is transcriptionally regulated by Dsx, and its knockdown in the somatic gonad hyperactivates BMP signaling and to a large extent recapitulates loss of Nup107 phenotypes. Thus, Dsx acts downstream of Nup107 to impact female germline stem cells via sex-specific modulation of the BMP pathway.

Affymetrix SNP array data for ovarian dysgenesis samples

Project description:Ovarian development and maintenance are poorly understood, but diseases affecting them can offer insights into their underlying mechanisms. XX-female gonadal dysgenesis (XX-GD) is a rare, genetically heterogeneous disorder characterized by underdeveloped, dysfunctional ovaries with subsequent lack of spontaneous pubertal development, primary amenorrhea, uterine hypoplasia, and hypergonadotropic hypogonadism. We used SNP arrays to perform homozygosity mapping in order to detect informative genomic regions which are homozygous and shared among affected individuals. This analysis identified genomic regions in which the mutated gene causing the XX-GD phenotype in the affected individuals may reside. Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from peripheral blood samples.

Transcription profiling of mouse embryonic day (E) 11.5 and E12.5 mouse gonadsNew candidate gene identification for controlling mammalian gonadal sex determination

Project description:Mammalian gonadal sex determination is dependent on proper expression of sex determining genes in fetal gonadal somatic support cells (i.e., pre-granulosa and pre-Sertoli cells in XX and XY gonads, resp.). We used a unique transgenic mouse strain combined with microarray profiling to identify all the differentially expressed transcripts in XX and XY isolated somatic support cells during critical stages of gonadal development and differentiation. Experiment Overall Design: XX and XY somatic support cells (SSC) were isolated by flow cytometry from embryonic day (E) 11.5 and E12.5 mouse gonads. Total RNA was isolated from pools of isolated cells; 3 pools per sex and each timepoint.

Offspring from oocytes derived from in vitro primordial germ cell-like cells in mice

Project description:Reconstitution of female germ-cell development in vitro is a key challenge in reproductive biology and medicine. We show here that female (XX) embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in mice are induced into primordial germ cell-like cells (PGCLCs), which, when aggregated with female gonadal somatic cells as reconstituted ovaries, develop pre-meiotic germ cell characteristics, including X-reactivation, imprint erasure, and cyst formation. Upon transplantation under ovarian bursa, PGCLCs in the reconstituted ovaries mature into germinal vesicle-stage oocytes, which, through in vitro maturation and fertilization, contribute to fertile offspring. Our culture system serves as a robust foundation for the investigation of key properties of female germ cells, including the acquisition of totipotency, and for the reconstitution of whole female germ-cell development in vitro. We performed expression analysis of female PGC-like cells [PGCLCs; day 3 (d3), day 6 (d6), and day 3 followed by day 6 in aggregation with female embryonic day (E) 12.5 gonadal somatic cells (d3ag6)] in comparison to in vivo embryonic PGCs (E12.5 female PGCs and E9.5 PGCs) and male d6 PGCLCs. PGCLCs were marked with fluorescence of Blimp1-mVenus, stella-ECFP transgenic reporters (BVSC). PGCs were marked with fluorescence of the stella-EGFP transgenic reporter.

Distinct and sexually dimorphic X dosage compensation states in the mammalian germline

Project description:This experiment depicts RNA-Seq datasets from wild type XY male and XX female, as well as sex chromosomally abnormal XO female (Turner syndrome) and XX male (Klinefelter variant syndrome) mouse germ cells before, during and after germline reprogramming. This range from E6.5 epiblasts, fluorescence activated cell sorted (FACS) highly purified populations of germ cells (EGFP-positive) and gonadal somatic cells (EGFP-negative) from both sexes at E9.5, E11.5, E12.5, E14.5, E15.5, E16.5 and E18.5, as well as purified spermatogonia and leptotene / zygotene spermatocytes from P2 and P11 males, respectively. Non-gonadal somatic cell control datasets were generated from male and female E14.5 liver and tail. Germ cells from individual embryos were processed to make cDNA libraries and served as biological replicates. We generated in total 184 libraries for our analysis from 60 separate conditions.

Gene expression profile in isolated E13 gonadal somatic support cells and E13 gonads.

Project description:Gonadal sex determining (GSD) genes that initiate fetal ovarian and testicular development and differentiation are expressed in the cells of the urogenital ridge that differentiate as somatic support cells (SSCs), i.e., granulosa cells of the ovary and Sertoli cells of the testis. To identify potential new mammalian GSD genes, we analyzed the gene expression differences between XX and XY SSCs cells isolated from the gonads of embryonic day (E) 13 mouse fetuses carrying an EGFP reporter transgene expressed specifically in SSCs. In addition, genome wide expression differences between XX and XY E13 whole gonads were examined. Newly identified differentially expressed transcripts are potential GSD genes involved in unexplained human sex reversal cases. Keywords: microarray, mouse fetal gonadal somatic support cells, sex determination
