Effect of divergence in fertility on miRNA profIling in spermatozoa of bulls

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to examine changes in the miRNA transcriptional profile of spermatozoa in Holstein-Friesian bulls. Spermatozoa from bulls divergent for feritlity status were used for this study with 10 High fertility bulls and 10 Low fertility bulls. RNA was extracted and subsequently subjected to miRNAseq analysis. 13 miRNA were identified as differentially expressed in the spermatozoa between bulls of high and low feritlity status.

Metabolomic fingerprinting of bull spermatozoa for identification of fertility signature metabolites

Project description:The objective of the study was to identify the fertility-associated metabolites in bovine spermatozoa using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Six Holstein Friesian crossbred bulls (three high-fertile and three low-fertile bulls) were the experimental animals. Sperm proteins were isolated and protein-normalized samples were processed for metabolite extraction and subjected to LC-MS/MS analysis. Mass spectrometry data were processed using iMETQ software and metabolites were identified using Human Metabolome DataBase while, Metaboanalyst 4.0 tool was used for statistical and pathway analysis. A total of 3,704 metabolites belonging to various chemical classes were identified in bull spermatozoa. After sorting out exogenous metabolites, 56 metabolites were observed common to both the groups while 44 and 35 metabolites were found unique to high- and low-fertile spermatozoa, respectively. Among the common metabolites, concentrations of 19 metabolites were higher in high-fertile compared to low-fertile spermatozoa (fold change > 1.00). Spermatozoa metabolites with variable importance in projections score of more than 1.5 included hypotaurine, d-cysteine, selenocystine. In addition, metabolites such as spermine and l-cysteine were identified exclusively in high-fertile spermatozoa. Collectively, the present study established the metabolic profile of bovine spermatozoa and identified the metabolomic differences between spermatozoa from high- and low-fertile bulls. Among the sperm metabolites, hypotaurine, selenocysteine, l-malic acid, d-cysteine, and chondroitin 4-sulfate hold the potential to be recognized as fertility-associated metabolites.

Genome wide differential H3K4me2 and H3K27me3 profile of spermatozoa from high and sub-fertility buffalo bulls

Project description:Sperm carries information to the presumptive embryo upon fertilization in terms of epigenetic codes and transcripts along with the haploid genome. The epigenetic code includes DNA methylation and Histone modifications. During spermatogenesis the chromatin of sperm undergoes wide level of modifications and histone proteins are replaced by Protamine proteins. But some modified Histone forms still remain and they carry epigenetic codes essential for fertility and embryo development. Through this work we are trying to see the difference between H3K4me2 and H3K27me3 kind of histone modifications in spermatozoa of high and low fertility buffalo bulls.

Identification of protein candidates in spermatozoa of water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) bulls helps in predicting their fertility status

Project description:Abstract The water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) is an indispensable part of the Indian dairy sector and in several instances, the farmers incur economic losses due to failed pregnancy after artificial insemination (AI). One of the key factors for the failure of conception is the use of semen from the bulls of low fertilizing potential and hence, it becomes important to predict the fertility status before performing AI. In this study, the global proteomic profile of high fertile (HF) and low fertile (LF) buffalo bull spermatozoa was established using a high-throughput LC-MS/MS technique. A total of 1385 proteins (≥ 1 high-quality PSM/s, ≥ 1 unique peptides, P < 0.05, FDR < 0.01) were identified out of which, 1002 were common between both the HF and LF groups while 288 and 95 proteins were unique to HF and LF groups respectively. We observed 211 and 342 significantly upregulated (log Fc ≥2) and downregulated in HF (log Fc ≤0.5) spermatozoa (p <0.05). Gene ontology analysis revealed that the fertility associated upregulated proteins were involved in spermatogenesis, sperm motility, acrosome integrity, zona pellucida binding and other associated sperm functions. Besides this, the downregulated proteins were involved in glycolysis, fatty acid degradation and inflammation. Furthermore, fertility related differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) on sperm viz., AKAP3, Sp17 and DLD were validated through Western blotting and immunocytochemistry which was in coherence with the LC-MS/MS data. The DAPs identified in this study may be used as potential protein candidates for predicting fertility in buffaloes. Our findings provide an opportunity in mitigating the economic losses that farmers incur due to male infertility.

Influence of sire fertility status on conceptus-induced transcriptomic response of the bovine endometrium

Project description:The aim of this study was to examine the effect of sire fertility status on conceptus-induced changes in the endometrial transcriptome. Holstein Friesian bulls (3 High fertility, HF, 3 Low fertility, LF) were selected from the Irish national population of AI bulls (minimum of 500 inseminations/bull) based on adjusted fertility scores (HF: +4.37% and LF: -12.7%; mean = 0%). To generate elongated conceptuses, Day 7 blastocysts produced in vitro using sperm from these six bulls were transferred in groups of 5-10 to synchronized heifers (n=7 heifers per bull; total 42 heifers). Conceptuses were recovered following slaughter on Day 15 (recovery rate: HF 59.4% vs. LF 45.0%; P<0.05). In parallel, Day 15 endometrial explants were recovered from synchronized cyclic heifers (n=4). Explants from each heifer were co-cultured for 6 h in RPMI medium with (i) nothing, control (ii) 100 ng/ml ovine recombinant interferon tau (IFNT) (iii) a single conceptus from each high fertility bull, or (iv) a single conceptus from each low fertility bull. To minimize variation, explants from the same uterus were used across all treatments, replicated across 4 heifers. After 6 h, explants were snap frozen and stored at -80°C. Extracted mRNA was subjected to RNA-seq (Illumina NextSeq 500) and the resulting data were analyzed through a bioinformatic pipeline with R software.

Divergences of sperm DNA methylomes between monozygotic twin seed bulls reveal fertility-related genes (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Semen quality is extremely important for fertility, and it is easily influenced by environmental factors and can induce subfertility of the next generations. The sperm DNA methylomes of the MZ twin bulls were investigated by WGBS at single-base resolution. We detected DMRs between the twin bulls with divergent sperm qualities. We also conducted transcriptome sequencing for the MZ twin bulls in three replicates. We investigated the relationship between methylation and gene expression.

Bull sperm SWATH-MS-based proteomics reveals link between high fertility and energy production, motility structures, and sperm-oocyte interaction. Quantitation

Project description:Prediction of male or semen fertility potential remains a persistent challenge that has yet to be fully resolved. This work analyzed several in vitro parameters and proteome of spermatozoa in bulls cataloged as high (HF; n=5) and low field (LF; n=5) fertility after more than a thousand artificial inseminations. Sperm motility was evaluated by Computer-Assisted Sperm Analysis. Sperm viability, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and reactive oxygen species (mROS) of spermatozoa were assessed by flow cytometry. Proteome was evaluated by SWATH-MS procedure. Spermatozoa of HF bulls showed significantly higher total motility than the LF group (41.4% vs. 29.7%). Rates of healthy sperm (live, high MMP, and low mROS) for HF and LF bull groups were 49% and 43%, respectively (p > 0.05). Spermatozoa of HF bulls showed higher presence of differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) related to both energy production (COX7C), mainly OXPHOS pathway, and to the development of structures linked with the motility process (TPPP2, SSMEM1 and SPAG16). Furthermore, we observed that EQTN, together with other DAPs related to the interaction with the oocyte, were overrepresented in HF bull spermatozoa. The biological processes related to protein processing, catabolism, and protein folding were found to be overrepresented in LF bull sperm in which the HSP90AA1 chaperone was identified as the most DAP
