Project description:Despite many improvements with in vitro culture systems, the quality and developmental ability of mammalian embryos produced in vitro is still lower than their in vivo counterparts. To bring knowledge to answer this question, we used a mass spectrometry (MS) approach to compare the protein content of bovine embryos that were conceived in vivo or produced in vitro. A total of 38 pools of grade-1 quality bovine embryos at the 4-6 cell, 8-12 cell, morula, compact morula and blastocyst stages developed either in vivo or in vitro were analyzed by nano-liquid chromatography coupled with label-free quantitative mass spectrometry, allowing the identification of 3,028 proteins. Multivariate analysis of quantified proteins showed a clear separation of embryo pools according to their in vivo or in vitro origin at all stages. Three clusters of differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) according to embryo origin were evidenced, including 463 proteins more abundant in vivo than in vitro across development, and 314 and 222 proteins more abundant in vitro than in vivo before and after the morula stage, respectively. The functional analysis of proteins found more abundant in vivo showed an enrichment in carbohydrate metabolism and cytoplasmic cellular components. Proteins found more abundant in vitro before the morula stage were mostly localized in mitochondrial matrix and involved in ATP-dependent activity while those overabundant after morula stage were mostly localized in the ribonucleoprotein complex and involved in protein synthesis. Oviductin and other proteins previously shown to interact with early embryos in vitro were among the most overabundant proteins after in vivo development. In conclusion, the maternal environment led to faster degradation of mitochondrial proteins at early embryo developmental stages, lower abundance of proteins involved in protein synthesis at the time of embryonic genome activation and a global upregulation of carbohydrate and small molecule metabolic pathways compared to in vitro produced embryos. Furthermore, our data confirm that embryos developed in vivo uptake large amounts of oviduct fluid-derived proteins as soon as the 4-6 cell stage. These data provide new insight into the molecular contribution of the mother to the developmental ability of early embryos and will help designing better in vitro culture systems.

Project description:High resolution polysome fractionation and low-input ribosome profiling of bovine oocytes and preimplantation embryos has enabled us to define the translational landscape of early embryo development at an unprecedented level. We systematically and comparatively analyzed the transcriptome, polysome- and nonpolysome-bound RNA profiles of bovine oocytes and early embryos at 2-, 8-cell, morula, and blastocyst stage, and defined four modes of translational selectivity in bovine preimplantation embryo development: i. selective translation of non-abundant mRNAs, ii. active translating highly expressed mRNAs, iii. Translationally suppressed abundant mRNAs, and iv. Monosomaly occupied mRNAs. A strong selection towards genes involved in mitochondrial function and metabolic pathways was found throughout bovine preimplantation development. We found translatome largely follows transcriptome at oocytes, followed by a marked translational control at 8-cell embryos, which is gradually synchronized at the morula and blastocyst stage. We identified important novel cellular/embryonic functional regulators that being utilized and prioritized for translation at each developmental stage, that accompanies little-known bovine embryonic developmental programming. Together, these data reveal a unique spatiotemporal translational regulation that accompanies bovine preimplantation development.

Project description:We performed bulk RNA sequencing of cells exposed to either 300ng/ml of the ligand WNT3A for 6 or 18 hours, or 8μM of the GSK3b inhibitor CHIR99021 for 6 hours, which is commonly used as a substitute for WNT in differentiation. We observed transcriptional activation of the canonical WNT genes WNT3 and WNT10B confirming that Wnt signaling induces canonical WNTs.

Project description:We collected over 8000 mouse embryos of each developmental stage (zygote, 2-cell, 4-cell, 8-cell, morula, blastocyst) and performed tandem mass tag (TMT)-based quantitative mass spectrometry and identified nearly 5000 proteins for each stage. In-depth analysis indicates that protein expression profiles of zygote, morula and blastocyst show apparent difference from 2- to 8-cell embryos due to the maternal-totipotent-differentiation transition. We further identified novel factors and proved that they play important roles in determining pre-implantation embryo development

Project description:As a histone hallmark for transcription repression, Histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) plays important roles in mammalian embryo development and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) generation. However, the expression profile and roles of H3K27me3 in bovine somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) reprogramming remain poorly understood. In this study, we find SCNT embryos exhibit global hypermethylation of H3K27me3 from two-cell to eight-cell stage and its removal by ectopically expressed H3K27me3 demethylase-KDM6A could greatly improves SCNT efficiency. To illuminate the mechanism of improving SCNT reprogramming efficiency of KDM6A overexpression, we performed RNA sequencing of transcripts in SCNT morula with or without KDM6A overexpression. RNA-seq reveal that KDM6A overexpression could enhance transcription of genes mainly involved cell adhesion and cellular metabolism process, as well as X-linked genes. We first provides the transcriptome data of bovine SCNT morula with or without KDM6A overexpression. Meanwhile, we compared the differences of transcriptome between SCNT eight-cell embryos and morula. Our study provide a more promising approach to improving the efficiency of SCNT reprogramming and contribute to understanding the mechanism of first cell fate determine during embryo development in bovine.

Project description:Genes and signaling pathways involved in pluripotency have been studied extensively in mouse and human pre-implantation embryos and embryonic stem (ES) cells. The unsuccessful attempts to generate ES cell lines from other species including cattle suggests that other genes and pathways are involved in maintaining pluripotency in these species. To investigate which genes are involved in bovine pluripotency, expression profiles were generated from morula, blastocyst, trophectoderm and inner cell mass (ICM) samples using microarray analysis. As MAPK inhibition can increase the NANOG/GATA6 ratio in the inner cell mass, additionally blastocysts were cultured in the presence of a MAPK inhibitor and changes in gene expression in the inner cell mass were analyzed. Between morula and blastocyst 3,774 genes were differentially expressed and the largest differences were found in blastocyst up-regulated genes. Gene ontology (GO) analysis shows lipid metabolic process as the term most enriched with genes expressed at higher levels in blastocysts. Genes with higher expression levels in morulae were enriched in the RNA processing GO term. Of the 497 differentially expressed genes comparing ICM and TE the expression of NANOG, SOX2 and POU5F1 was indeed increased in the ICM confirming their evolutionary preserved role in pluripotency. Several genes implicated to be involved in differentiation or fate determination were also expressed at higher levels in the ICM. Genes expressed at higher levels in the ICM were enriched in the RNA splicing and regulation of gene expression GO term. Although NANOG expression was elevated upon MAPK inhibition, SOX2 and POU5F1 expression showed little increase. Expression of other genes in the MAPK pathway including DUSP4 and SPRY4, or influenced by MAPK inhibition such as IFNT, was affected. The data obtained from the microarray studies provide further insight in gene expression during bovine embryonic development. They show an expression profile in pluripotent cells that indicates a pluripotent but epiblast-like state. These data indicate that MAPK inhibition alone is not sufficient to maintain a pluripotent character in bovine cells. Microarrays used were bovine whole genome gene expression microarrays V2 (Agilent Technologies) representing 43,653 Bos taurus 60-mer oligos in a 4x44K layout. RNA samples from morula, blastocyst and dissected inner cell mass (ICM) and trophectoderm (TE) were compared in a common reference experiment design using 8 dual channel microarrays with each sample hybridized against an identical sample consisting of a pool of blastocysts total RNA. Within each group of two microarrays for each stage/tissue type, sample versus common reference hybridizations were performed in balanced dye-swap.

Project description:Early embryo development is a dynamic process involving important molecular and structural changes leading to the embryonic genome activation (EGA) and first cell lineage differentiation. Our aim was to elucidate proteomic changes in bovine embryos developed in vivo. Eleven Holstein females were used as embryo donors and pools of embryos at the 4-6 cell, 8-12 cell, morula, compact morula and blastocyst stages were analyzed by nanoliquid chromatography coupled with tandem MS (nanoLC-MS/MS). A total of 2757 proteins were identified, of which 1950 were quantitatively analyzed. Principal component analysis of data showed a separation of embryo pools according to their developmental stage. Differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) between stages were clustered into 626 upregulated and 400 downregulated proteins with most significant changes at the time of EGA and blastocyst formation. The main pathways and processes overrepresented among upregulated proteins were RNA metabolism, protein translation and ribosome biogenesis whereas Golgi vesicle transport and protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum were overrepresented among downregulated proteins. This is the first comprehensive study of proteome dynamics in non-rodent mammalian embryos developed in vivo. These data provide a number of functional protein candidates and will be useful to evaluate the impact of in vitro conditions on embryo quality.

Project description:The objective of this study was to investigate the roles of GSK3 inhibitor CHIR99021 and MEK inhibitor PD0325901 on 2i-adapted mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) in serum-free conditions.Canonical Wnt signaling supports the pluripotency of mouse ESCs but also promotes differentiation of early mammalian cell lineages. To explain these paradoxical observations, we explored the gene regulatory networks at play. Canonical Wnt signaling is intertwined with the pluripotency network comprising Nanog, Oct4, and Sox2 in mouse ESCs. In defined media supporting the derivation and propagation of mouse ESCs, Tcf3 and β-catenin interact with Oct4; Tcf3 binds to Sox motif within Oct-Sox composite motifs that are also bound by Oct4-Sox2 complexes. Further, canonical Wnt signaling up-regulates the activity of the Pou5f1 distal enhancer via the Sox motif in mouse ESCs. When viewed in the context of published studies on Tcf3 and β-catenin mutants, our findings suggest that Tcf3 counters pluripotency by competition with Sox2 at these sites, and Tcf3 inhibition is blocked by β-catenin entry into this complex. Wnt pathway stimulation also triggers β-catenin association at regulatory elements with classic Lef/Tcf motifs associated with differentiation programs. The failure to activate these targets in the presence of a MEK/ERK inhibitor essential for mouse ESC culture suggests that MEK/ERK signaling and canonical Wnt signaling combine to mouse promote ESC differentiation. Triplicates of mouse embryonic stem cells cultured under the following conditions: 1) CHIR99021+PD0325901+LIF; 2) CHIR99021+PD0325901; 3) CHIR99021; 4) PD0325901; 5) DMSO
