Project description:Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has increased over ten-fold over the past several decades, and appears predominantly associated with paternal transmission. Although genetics is anticipated to be a component of ASD etiology, environmental epigenetics is now thought to be an important factor. Epigenetic alterations, such as DNA methylation have been correlated with ASD. The current study was designed to identify a DNA methylation signature in sperm as a potential biomarker to identify paternal offspring autism susceptibility. Sperm samples were obtained from fathers, many undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) procedures, that have children with or without autism, and the sperm then assessed for alterations in DNA methylation. Differential DNA methylation regions (DMRs) were identified in the sperm of fathers with autistic children in comparison to those without ASD children. An MeDIP-seq procedure was used to identify DMRs. The genomic features and genes associated with the DMRs were identified. The potential sperm DMR biomarker was validated with a blinded test set of individuals. Observations demonstrate a significant set of DMRs in sperm can potentially act as a biomarker for paternal offspring autism susceptibility.

Project description:Purpose: Paternal life experiences impact offspring health via germline, and epigenetic inheritance provides a potential mechanism. However, global reprogramming during offspring embryogenesis and gametogenesis represents the largest hurdle to conceptualize it. Yet, detailed characterization of how sperm epigenetic alterations carrying “environmental memory” can evade offspring embryonic reprogramming remains elusive. Methods: we profiled the sperm DNA methylation patterns of three consecutive generations (F0, F1 and F2) in both control and stress groups by using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS). A total of 18 sperm samples were analyzed, including three biological replicates for each generation under each treatment. In addition, small RNA sequencing was carried out on paternal sperm samples to investigate whether long-term psychological stress affected the enrichment of certain sncRNAs and to identify whether they participated in mediating the occurrence and paternal inheritance of the stress-induced DMRs Rsults: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we obtained approximately 800 million clean reads per sample (build mm10) with strand-specific coverage ~21×, and the data covered ~96.00% of the total 21,867,837 reference CpG dinucleotides. A total of 24,427, 7,975, and 5,173 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) between control and stress groups were found in the F0, F1, and F2 generations, respectively. Inter- and transgenerational inheritance of paternal DMRs were at frequencies approximately 11.36% and 0.48%, respectively. These DMRs related to genes with functional implications for psychological stress response, and tissue inheritance of these DMRs passed paternal disorders epigenetically to offspring. More importantly, these DMRs evaded offspring embryonic reprogramming through erasure and subsequent reestablishment, but not via un-erasure way. Nonetheless, their reestablishment proportions in the primitive streak (E7.5) stage were altered. Furthermore, sncRNA-seq revealed that stress-induced tsRNA, miRNA and rsRNA dysregulation in paternal sperm might play important roles in DMRs occurrence and paternal inheritance.

Project description:<p>The gut microbiota operates at the interface of host-environment interactions to influence human homeostasis and metabolic networks. Environmental factors that unbalance gut microbial ecosystems can therefore elicit physiological and disease-associated responses across somatic tissues. However, the systemic impact of the gut microbiome on the germline - and consequently on the F1 offspring it gives rise to - is not explored. Here we show that the gut microbiota act as a key interface between paternal preconception environment and intergenerational health in mice. Perturbations to the gut microbiota of prospective fathers increase the probability of their offspring presenting with low birthweight, severe growth restriction, and premature mortality. Paternal transmission of disease risk is provoked by pervasive microbiome perturbations, including (non)-absorbable antibiotics or osmotic laxatives, but is rescued by restoring the gut microbiota prior to conception. This reflects a dynamic male reproductive response to induced dysbiosis, that includes impaired leptin signalling, an altered metabolite and physiological configuration in testes, and remapped small RNA payloads in sperm. As a result, dysbiotic males trigger in utero placental insufficiency, which exhibits hallmarks of pre-eclampsia, and reveals a placental origin of mammalian intergenerational effects. Our study defines a regulatory ‘gut-germline axis’ in males, that is sensitive to environmental exposures, and programs offspring fitness through impacting placental function. </p>

Project description:Paternal nicotine exposure can alter phenotypes in future generations. To explore whether paternal nicotine exposure affects the hepatic repair to chronic injury which would lead to hepatic fibrosis in offspring, we establish a paternal effect model based on nicotine exposure in mice.

Project description:tsRNA is newly found small non-coding RNA with important biological function. However, the knowlede of diversity, biogeneis and function of tsRNA in plant is still lacking. Here, we selected 10-60 nt small RNA for high-throughput sequencing and uncovered the diversity,biogenesis and potentical function of tsRNA in Arabidopsis.

Project description:Although it is increasingly accepted that some paternal environmental conditions can influence phenotypes in future generations, it remains unclear whether phenotypes induced in offspring represent specific responses to particular aspects of the paternal exposure history, or whether they represent a more generic response to paternal “quality of life”. To establish a paternal effect model based on a specific ligand-receptor interaction and thereby enable pharmacological interrogation of the offspring phenotype, we explored the effects of paternal nicotine administration on offspring phenotype in mouse. We show that paternal exposure to chronic nicotine induced a broad protective response to xenobiotic exposure in the next generation. This effect manifested as increased survival following an injection of toxic levels of nicotine, was specific to male offspring, and was only observed after these offspring were first acclimated to low levels of nicotine for a week. Importantly, offspring xenobiotic resistance was documented not only for toxic nicotine challenge, but also for toxic cocaine challenge, indicating that paternal nicotine exposure reprograms offspring to become broadly resistant to environmental toxins. Mechanistically, the reprogrammed state was characterized by enhanced clearance of nicotine in drug-acclimated animals, and we found that isolated hepatocytes displayed upregulation of enzymes that metabolize xenobiotics. Taken together, our data show that paternal nicotine exposure induces a protective phenotype in offspring by enhancing metabolic tolerance to xenobiotics in the environment.
