Follicular development of fetal gonads under the skin of adult mice

ABSTRACT: Adult ovarian tissues or biopsies isolated from patients prior to chemotherapy or irradiation can reconstitute ovarian functions when transplanted either in the abdomen or subcutaneously. This approach avoids invasive surgery and potential risks associated with internal procedures. We investigated whether functional ovaries could develop subcutaneously from early E12.5 fetal gonads without entering meiosis in mouse model. Unexpectedly, the subcutaneously transplanted fetal gonads failed to undergo folliculogenesis, showing meiotic deficiencies, DNA repairdefects, and elevated apoptosis. Thes meiotic defects were partly due to variations in temperature and oxygen concentration. However, in vitro culture of the gonads at 37C allowed completion of meiotic prophase I. After subcutaneous transplantation, the in vitro cultured E12.5 gonads successfully underwent folliculogenesis, restoring endocrine functions. This suggests potential for using pluripotent stem cell technologies to rejuvenate ovarioids from fetal gonad-like cells, enhancing endocrine recovery and health span.

The E2 SUMO-conjugating enzyme UBE2I is essential for chromatin dynamics and transcriptional silencing in mouse oocytes

Project description:In mammals, meiotically competent oocytes develop cyclically during ovarian folliculogenesis. During their development, prophase I arrested oocytes are highly transcriptionally active in preparation for the resumption of meiosis and early stages of embryogenesis prior to the maternal to zygotic transition. Defective oocyte development during folliculogenesis leads to meiotic defects, aneuploidy, follicular atresia, or non-viable embryos. SUMOylation, a dynamic post-translational protein modification, is essential for oocyte development during folliculogenesis and to regulate meiotic maturation in mice. We generated a novel oocyte-specific knockout of Ube2i, the sole SUMO E2 ligase, to test its role growing ovarian follicles using Zp3-cre. Ube2i Zp3-cre+ female mice are sterile with oocytes with defects in meiotic progression but not meiotic resumption. Importantly, fully grown oocytes do not silence transcription and prematurely activate the zygotic transcriptional program. This work uncovers unknown functions of UBE2i as a key orchestrator of chromatin and transcriptional regulation in oocytes.

Maternal administration of acetaminophen affects meiosis through its metabolite NAPQI targeting SIRT7 in fetal oocytes

Project description:Acetaminophen (APAP) is clinically recommended as analgesic and antipyretic among pregnant women. However, accumulating laboratory evidence shows that the use of APAP during pregnancy may alter fetal development. Since fetal stage is a susceptible window for early oogenesis, we aim to assess the potential effects of maternal administration of APAP on fetal oocytes. Maternal administration and the fetal ovary cultures showed that APAP (50 and 150 mg/kg.bw/day) caused meiotic aberrations in fetal oocytes through its metabolite NAPQI, including meiotic prophase I (MPI) progression delay and homologous recombination defects. Co-treatment with NAM or NRC, NAD+ supplements, efficiently restored the MPI arrest, while the addition of the inhibitor of SIRT7 invalidated the effect of the NAD+ supplement. Additionally, RNA sequencing revealed distorted transcriptomes of fetal ovaries treated with NAPQI. Further, the fecundity of female offspring was affected, exhibiting as delayed primordial folliculogenesis and puberty onset, reduced levels of ovarian hormones, and impaired developmental competence of MII oocytes. Short-term administration of APAP to pregnant mouse caused meiotic aberrations in fetal oocytes by its metabolite NAPQI, while co-treatment with NAD+ supplement efficiently relieves the adverse effects by interacting with SIRT7.

Reprogramming of somatic cell fate in fetal mouse testis by FOXL2

Project description:From fish to human, FOXL2 is considered one of the most conserved markers of ovarian granulosa cell identity. To determine if the sole expression of FOXL2 can determine ovarian differentiation, we created a mouse model that allows the conditional expression of FOXL2. Rosa26-CAG-LSL-Foxl2 mice were crossed to Sf1-Cre mice to induce the expression of FOXL2 in the SF1+ somatic cells of the fetal gonads.When FOXL2 was induced in the somatic cells of the undifferentiated testis, the Sertoli cells and consequently the other cell lineages composing the fetal gonads were feminized, resulting in a partial testis-to-ovary sex reversal We created a mouse genetic model that conditionaly express FOXL2 in the somatic cells of the fetal gonads. All embryos used in this study resulted from the crossing between Rosa26-CAG-LSL-Foxl2+/f and Sf1-cre+/Tg mice. XX and XY fetal gonads were collected at embryonic day E14.5. This microarray analysis led to the identification of the genes misregulated upon ectopic induction of FOXL2 in the fetal testis, and showed that FOXL2 expression resulted in feminization of both somatic and germ cells of the fetal gonad.

Single-cell analysis RNA sequencing of prenatal and neonatal gonads/ovaries at E11.5, E12.5, E14.5, E16.5, E18.5, P1 and P5

Project description:We sequenced more than 52,500 single cells from E11.5 to P5 gonads to analyze primordial follicles and wave 1 medullar follicles during mouse fetal and perinatal oogenesis. Germ cells clustered into six meiotic substages as well as dying/nurse cells. We also define genes expressed by epithelial progenitors, and clarify the similar but distinct genetic programs of bipotential-derived and epithelial-derived pre-granulosa cell progenitors. Their differentially expressed genes are candidates to control the distinctive developmental programs of wave 1 and wave 2 follicles. These observations provide a strong basis for further studies of the development, physiology, and evolutionary conservation of mammalian ovarian follicle formation.

The single cell transcriptional landscape of female primordial germ cell differentiation

Project description:Female primordial germ cell differentiation undergoes sex determination and meiosis initiation asynchronously. Here we investigate the transcriptional profiles of 20519 single cells collected from E12.5, E14.5 and E16.5 mouse fetal ovaries. Clustering analysis identifies ten clusters and defines dozens of corresponding marker genes and provides a global view of cellular differentiation from undifferentiated primordial germ cells towards meiotic oocytes. We explore the dynamics of gene expression within the differentiation trajectory with special focus on the mechanisms for meiotic initiation.

Expression data from gonads of Meioc+/+ and Meioc-/-mice

Project description:Meiosis is a specialized division that is specifically engaged in germ cells. This program is finely and dichotomically regulated: germ cells enter meiosis at fetal life in ovaries (13.5 dpc) and only at post-natal life in testes (8 dpp). We used microarrays to determine the gene expression modifications in Meioc mutant gonads displaying early meiotic defects.

Single-cell transcriptomics of female fetal mouse ovarian cells

Project description:In mammal, female reproductive health is largely related to fetal ovarian development, along with tight coordination of transcriptional and metabolic regulations, as well as cell-cell communications. Mice is an ideal modal for the understanding of network mechanism in this process, thus providing essential information on the diagnosis and therapy of female reproductive diseases, as well as on oogenesis in vitro. To plot the landscape of mouse fetal ovarian development, STRT-seq was applied for ovarian cells isolated from E11.5 to E18.5 female gonads using Blimp1-mVenus and Stella-ECFP (BVSC) mice. Based on the expression patterns of well-known marker genes, 9 germ cell clusters and 8 somatic cell clusters were annotated, presenting a continuous distribution across fetal ovarian development. To summarize, we constructed a systematic cell-fate transition of mouse female fetal ovarian cells at single-cell resolution, including stage-specifically activated TFs, cellular metabolism pathway, and cell–cell communication network in ovarian microenvironment.

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.

BMPR1A-mediated BMP signalling ensures correct mitosis-to-meiosis transition in mouse fetal ovarian germ cells, in vivo

Project description:A successful mitosis-to-meiosis transition in germ cells is essential for fertility in sexually reproducing organisms. In mice and humans, it is established that STRA8 expression is critical for meiotic onset in both sexes. Here we show that BMP signalling is also essential, not for STRA8 induction but for correct meiotic progression in mouse fetal ovarian germ cells. Germ cell-specific deletion of Bmpr1a caused aberrant expression of meiotic, pluripotency, and cell cycle genes in E14.5 mouse fetal ovaries. Our results verify a role for BMP signalling in instructing germ cell meiosis in female mice in vivo, and shed light on the regulatory mechanisms underlying fetal germ cell development.
