Mechanism through which MTFP1 is involved in bovine oocyte maturation [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Oocyte maturation is a complex process that is regulated by a variety of factors. Mitochondria are a key factor affecting oocyte maturation in vitro. Mitochondrial fission process 1 (MTFP1) is located on the inner mitochondrial membrane and mediates the fission of this membrane. However, the role and mechanism of action of MTFP1 in bovine oocyte maturation are still unclear. We found that MTFP1 is expressed at all stages of bovine oocyte maturation. Moreover, MTFP1 knockdown decreased oocyte maturation efficiency. These observations, combined with our transcriptome sequencing results, showed that MTFP1 knockdown caused mitochondrial dysfunction, impaired nuclear cytoplasmic maturation, promoted mitochondrial fusion, induced mitophagy and decreased oocyte apoptosis. In summary, the inner mitochondrial membrane protein MTFP1 plays a crucial role in bovine oocyte maturation. The results provide a reference and theoretical basis for improving the quality of in vitro oocyte maturation and breeding efficiency in beef cattle

Melatonin mediates stress defense and improves development competence of bovine oocytes

Project description:Oocyte quality, which is directly related to reprogramming competence, is a major important limiting factor in animal cloning efficiency. Compared with oocytes matured in vivo, in vitro matured (IVM) oocytes exhibit lower oocyte quality and reprogramming competence primarily because of their higher levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this study, we investigate whether supplementing the oocyte maturation medium with melatonin, a free radical scavenger, could improve oocyte quality and reprogramming competence. We found that 10−9 M melatonin effectively alleviated oxidative stress, markedly decreased early apoptosis levels, recovered the integrity of mitochondria, ameliorated the spindle assembly and chromosome alignment in oocytes, and significantly promoted subsequent cloned embryo development in vitro. We also analyzed the effects of melatonin on epigenetic modifications in bovine oocytes. Melatonin increased the global H3K9 acetylation levels, reduced the H3K9 methylation levels, and minimally affected DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation. Genome-wide expression analysis of genes affected by melatonin during oocyte maturation was conducted by high-throughput scRNA sequencing. We found that several important genes altered by melatonin were involved in oocyte stress defense. These genes included GSTP1, mitochondrial DNA polymerase POLG, mitochondrial ATP synthase ATP5E, centriole-enriched gene CEP295, spindle assembly-related gene TCTP, cytoprotection, and anti-apoptosis-related gene HSP27. Our results indicated critical roles of melatonin during bovine oocyte maturation and development.

Mitochondrial reorganization is rate-limiting for direct cardiac reprogramming

Project description:Direct cardiac reprogramming of cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) into induced cardiomyocytes (iCMs) has emerged as a promising potential therapeutic for preserving cardiac function after ischemic injury. Remaining barriers to clinical translation include low conversion efficiency and relative immaturity of iCMs. A major phenotypic distinction between CFs and native CMs is the latter’s reliance on mitochondrial energetics facilitated by their high mitochondrial fusion (joining) activity relative to fission (dividing) activity. However, how mitochondria reorganize during reprogramming remains understudied. We combined metabolic flux assays with novel microscopy techniques to characterize mitochondrial energetics and morphology over a time course of cardiac reprogramming with Mef2c, Gata4 and Tbx5 (MGT). We found that MGT reprogramming induces increased mitochondrial respiration and fusion. However, this reorganization occurs only at later reprogramming time points. Hypothesizing that mitochondrial reorganization represents a rate-limiting step in reprogramming, we then performed a loss of function screen for a panel of genes known to regulate mitochondrial morphology. We found that the fusion apparatus is essential for successful iCM conversion and identified the fission regulator Mtfr1l as a powerful barrier to reprogramming. Using transcriptomic analysis and concomitant knockdown of the Mtfr1l target Opa1, the effector of inner membrane fusion, we showed that loss of Mtfr1l dramatically improves reprogramming efficiency and the maturity of nascent iCMs by facilitating a metabolic switch toward more interconnected and energetically active mitochondria. This study represents a major step forward in understanding reprogramming mechanisms and is the first report of Mtfr1l as a significant barrier to iCM conversion and maturation.

Taurine improves bovine oocytes maturation through recovering mitochondria dysfunction and oxidative stress-induced apoptosis after Microplastics exposure

Project description:Plastic is widespread in our lives, releasing various Microplastics (MPs) with toxicity. In recent years, the potential threat of MPs on reproductive system arouses public concern. Numerous reports have focused on its damage to spermatogenesis. Nevertheless, the toxicity of MPs on female reproduction is unclear. Here, we explored this question using bovine oocyte. We found that MPs disrupts spindle organization, chromosomes alignment and actin assembly, leading to failed maturation of bovine oocytes. Meanwhile, cortical granule secretion is obstructed, suggesting the failure of cytoplasmic maturation. Therefore, embryonic development is impacted. In transcriptome results, MPs induces the expression change of Mitochondrial-related genes, reflecting the damage of MPs are mediated by mitochondrial functions. MPs indeed causes oxidative stress, DNA damage and apoptosis. Taurine is capable for stabilizing cellular antioxidant level. We surprisingly find that Taurine suppresses mitochondrial dysfunction, reversing the failure of oocyte maturation and embryo development after MPs exposure. Collectively, we reveal the reproduction toxicity of MPs on bovine oocytes, and demonstrates the restorative effect of Taurine against MPs.

Corpus luteum proximity alters molecular signature of the small extracellular vesicles and cumulus cells in the bovine ovarian follicle environment

Project description:Progesterone (P4) is predicted to act as a negative regulatory hormone for oocyte maturation events; however, its local effects during follicular development remain poorly understood in bovine. The complex process of oocyte meiosis progression is dependent on cellular communication among follicular cells. Besides, the breakdown of this communication, mainly between cumulus cells and oocyte, through the retraction of cumulus projections connecting these cells can impact oocyte maturation. In our study, we observed that ipsilateral follicles containing high intrafollicular P4 concentrations enhance the expression of proteins in follicular small extracellular vesicles predicted to be involved in the retraction of membrane projections based on actin filaments, such transzonal projections (TZPs). Additionally, we found that contralateral follicles containing low intrafollicular P4 concentrations are predicted to regulate cellular communication pathways inducing the maintenance of membrane projections in cumulus cells. Our functional analysis confirmed that supplementation of cumulus-oocyte complexes during in vitro maturation with P4 at concentration similar to ipsilateral follicles reduces the number of TZPs. In summary, our study underscores a direct association between P4 concentration and cumulus-oocyte interaction, with potential consequences for the acquisition of oocyte competence.

Profiles and roles of N6-methyladenosine modification in bovine oocyte maturation [MeRIP]

Project description:The quality of bovine oocytes is crucial for in vitro embryo production technology, thus it is essential to study the mechanisms of oocyte maturation. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification plays a key role in gametogenesis and embryonic development. However, the dynamic landscape and functional roles of m6A modification during bovine oocyte maturation remain unclear. We conducted transcriptome-wide m6A landscape analysis on bovine oocytes at the GV and MII phases using MeRIP-seq and RNA-seq technologies. We identified a total of 6,323 differential m6A peaks in the two groups of oocytes, with 4,422 m6A peaks being significantly upregulated and 1,901 m6A peaks significantly downregulated. The combined analysis of MeRIP-seq and RNA-seq identified 262 genes with significant differences in both methylation modification and transcriptome levels. GO and KEGG enrichment analyses of these genes revealed significant enrichment in biological processes and signaling pathways such as endocytosis, thermogenesis, ribosome, cellular metabolism, Apelin signaling pathway, and HIF-1 signaling pathway. Finally, we examined the roles of m6A modification in bovine oocyte maturation. The results showed that inhibition of m6A modification affects nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation of oocytes. Our results reveal the m6A modification profile during bovine oocyte maturation. Furthermore, we found that inhibition of m6A modification leads to meiotic failure. These results provide a theoretical basis for studying the function of RNA modification in oocyte maturation.

Cardiolipin is required for membrane docking of mitochondrial ribosomes and protein synthesis

Project description:The mitochondrial inner membrane contains a unique phospholipid known as cardiolipin (CL), which stabilises the protein complexes embedded in the membrane and supports its overall structure. Recent evidence indicates that the mitochondrial ribosome may associate with the inner membrane to facilitate co-translational insertion of the hydrophobic oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) proteins into the inner membrane. We generated three mutant knockout cell lines for the cardiolipin biosynthesis gene Crls1 to investigate the effects of cardiolipin loss on mitochondrial protein synthesis. Reduced CL levels caused altered mitochondrial morphology and transcriptome-wide changes that were accompanied by reduced uncoordinated mitochondrial translation rates and impaired respiratory supercomplex formation. Aberrant protein synthesis was caused by impaired formation and distribution of mitochondrial ribosomes. Reduction or loss of cardiolipin resulted in resulted in different mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum stress responses. We show that cardiolipin is required to stabilise the interaction of the mitochondrial ribosome with the membrane via its association with OXA1 during active translation. This interaction facilitates insertion of newly synthesised mitochondrial proteins into the inner membrane and stabilises the respiratory supercomplexes.

Transcriptional profiling of cumulus cells entoured the oocyte after in vitro or in vivo maturation in bovine (Bos taurus)

Project description:In vitro maturation (IVM) of the oocytes is a routine method in bovine embryo production. The competence of bovine oocytes to develop into embryo after IVM and in vitro fertilization (IVF) is lower as compared to in vivo preovulatory oocytes. Cumulus cells (CC) that enclose an oocyte are involved in the acquisition of oocyte quality during maturation. Using transcriptomic approach we compared cumulus cells gene expression during IVM with that in vivo preovulatory period.

ATAD3A has a scaffolding role regulating mitochondria inner membrane structure and protein assembly

Project description:The ATPase Family AAA Domain Containing 3A (ATAD3A) is a mitochondrial inner membrane protein conserved in metazoans. ATAD3A has been associated with several mitochondrial functions, including nucleoid organization, cholesterol metabolism, and mitochondrial translation. To address its primary role, we generated a neuronal-specific conditional knockout (Atad3 nKO) mouse model, which developed a severe encephalopathy by 5 months of age. Pre-symptomatic mice showed aberrant mitochondrial cristae morphogenesis in the cortex as early as 2 months. Using a multi-omics approach in the CNS of 2-3-month-old mice, we found early alterations in the organelle membrane structure. We also showed that human ATAD3A associates with different components of the inner membrane, including: OXPHOS complex I, Letm1 and prohibitin complexes. Stochastic Optical Reconstruction Microscopy (STORM) showed that ATAD3A is regularly distributed along the inner mitochondrial membrane, suggesting a critical structural role in inner mitochondrial membrane and its organization, most likely in an ATPase-dependent manner.

NAT10-mediated N4-acetylcytidine of RNA Contributes to Post-transcriptional Regulation of Mouse Oocyte Maturation In Vitro

Project description:N4-acetylcytidine (ac4C), a newly identified epigenetic modification within mRNAs, has been characterized as a crucial regulator of mRNA stability and translation efficiency. And NAT10 is the only known RNA acetyltransferase. In our study, we documented the down-regulated expression of both ac4C and NAT10 during meiotic maturation of mouse oocytes. NAT10 knockdown resulted in ac4C reduction and impaired mouse oocyte maturation in vitro. These results indicated that NAT10-mediated ac4C modification plays a critical regulatory role in oocyte meiotic maturation. We further performed high-throughput sequencing with NAT10-overexpressed HEK293T cells and NAT10-binding transcripts to investigate the genes modulated by NAT10-mediated ac4C modification.
