Identification of genes involved in germline regeneration in adult undifferentiated spermatogonia following a low dose busulfan treatment

ABSTRACT: Mammalian spermatogenesis and male fertility are sustained by a small population of spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) in the testis. In particular, germ cells are highly sensitive to chemotherapies and radiation, placing male cancer patients at a higher risks of treatment-induced infertility. While SSCs surive the treatment may restore the germline and ferility, it remains unknown how SSCs mediate the regenerative responses to re-establish the germline. In this study, we used a mouse model of chemotherapy-induced germline damage and recovery to identify differentially expressed genes in homeostatic (from untreated control mice) versus regenerative SSCs (busulfan-treated mice) and potential effectors driving the initiation of regeneration.

Differentially expressed genes in undifferentiated spermatogonia at single cell level following a low dose of busulfan

Project description:Spermatogonial stem cells are responsible for sustaining gametes production and male fertiliy in men. However, germ cells including SSCs are highly sensitive to chemotherapies and radiations, placing male cancer patients at high risk of treatment-induce infertility. We have previously shown that the undifferentiated spermatogonial population of mouse testis is functionally heterogeneous and contain both stem cells and committed progenitor cells. Using mouse model of chemotherapy-induced germline damage and recovery, we aim to define molecular charactersitics, dynamics and heterogeneity of undifferentiated spermatogonia during germline regeneration compared to homeostatic undifferentiated spermatogonia.

Bulk RNA-seq for undifferentiated spermatogonia from the testes of control, aged and busulfan-treated C57BL/6 mice

Project description:Samples were prepared from 100 GFRa1-GFP positive, Miwi2-tdTom negative and 100 GFRa1-GFP negative, Miwi2-tdTom positive cells that were sorted with FACS. cDNA libraries were prepared with the SMARTseq2 protocol. Adult, control samples had four biological replicates while the aged and busulfan-treated samples were in triplicate. There were 2 technical replicates per biological sample.

Transcriptome analysis reveals conditions for culturing human primitive undifferentiated spermatogonia

Project description:Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are essential for the generation of sperm and have potential therapeutic value for male infertility, which afflicts >100 million men world-wide. To devise SSC therapy approaches, it is critical to first develop methods to culture human SSCs in vitro. Here, we report on a transcriptome approach to address this question. Using single-cell RNA-seq (scRNAseq), immunofluorescence, and germ-cell xenograft transplantation analyses, we identified a cell-surface protein, PLPPR3, that purifies human primitive undifferentiated spermatogonia (uSPG) enriched for SSCs. Comparative RNAseq analysis of PLPPR3+ cells (primitive uSPG) with KIT+ cells (enriched for differentiating [d] SPG) revealed that these two stages differentially express a remarkably large number of genes, including genes encoding key components in the TGF, GDNF, AKT, and JAK-STAT signaling pathways. Using scRNAseq analysis and conventional approaches, we tested the effect of manipulating these signaling pathways on cultured human SPG. This revealed that GDNF and BMP8B broadly support the culture of SPG, Activin A supports more advanced SPG, and one condition—AKT pathway inhibition—had the unique ability to selectively support primitive uSPG. These findings have implications for methods to culture and expand human SSCs for therapeutic uses in the future.

Identification of Glucocorticoid-Induced Leucine Zipper (Gilz) gene targets in undifferentiated spermatogonia

Project description:Sustained spermatogenesis in adult males and recovery of fertility following germ cell depletion are dependent on undifferentiated spermatogonia with self-renewal potential. We have previously demonstrated a critical cell-autonomous role for Gilz in spermatogonial stem cell maintainance and spermatogenesis. To identify genes regulated by Gilz in the male germline, we have isolated undifferentiated spermatogonial cells from tamoxifen treated Gilzflox/flox (Control) and Gilzflox/flox UBC-CreER (TAM-KO) mice that will allow identification of genes mis-expressed upon loss of GILZ.

RNA sequencing analysis of busulfan-treated initial segment-caput epididymis.

Project description:Purpose: The purpose of this study is to characterize genes whose expressions in the initial segment (IS)-caput epididymis were affected by busulfan intraperitoneal injection. Methods: 8-week-old wild-type mice were treated with single intraperitoneal injection of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or busulfan (40mg/kg body weight) disolved in DMSO and mice were left for 4 weeks until tissue sampling at 12 weeks old. IS-caput epididymal mRNA profiles were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina NovaSeq6000. Results: RNA-seq data identified differentially expressed transcripts. Conclusions: Our results show that the expression of many genes was affected by busulfan injection.

The hypoxia-inducible factor EPAS1 is required for normal spermatogonial stem cell function in regenerative conditions [EPAS1 scRNAseq]

Project description:To understand the role of the hypoxia-inducible transcription factor EPAS1 in regulating spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) function, a conditional knockout mouse was generated (EPAS1-cKO) where Epas1 was ablated only in the germ cells (Ddx4-Cre, Epasfl/-). For single cell RNA sequencing analysis, control and EPAS1-cKO males were pre-treated with the chemotherapeutic reagent busulfan to instigate regenerative conditions, and a germ cell-enriched cell population was collected 14 days later. Transcriptome profiling revealed that EPAS1 deficiency alters gene expression and key cellular processes in undifferentiated spermatogonia, including metabolism and proteostasis. Overall, these transcriptomic changes resulted in an impaired capacity for SSCs to restore spermatogenesis after busulfan treatment.
