Murine Spermatogonial Stem Cells: Rapamycin- vs Vehicle-exposed in vivo (2-wk treatment)

ABSTRACT: Male FVB strain mice aged 12-days-old through 26-days-old were administered daily intraperitoneal injections of rapamycin (4mg/kg body weight) or control vehicle (5% Tween-80, 5% PEG-400), beginning at postnatal day (P)12. Mice were euthanized at P26 and their testes were isolated for germ cell enrichment. Single cell suspensions of germ cells were prepared from isolated testes and subjected to magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS). This procedure enriches the undifferentiated spermatogonia fraction, which represents the spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) population. Total RNA from cells double-positive for the SSC surface markers thymus cell antigen 1, theta (THY1) and glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor family receptor alpha 1 (GFRA1) was isolated for gene expression microarray analysis.

Magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) was used to enrich undifferentiated spermatogonia from a pool of primary testicular cells isolated from 5 littermate rapamycin (RM)-treated male mice and from 5 littermate control vehicle (VEH)-treated male mice. With MACS-enriched cells from pool generating RNA, no technical replicates performed.

Expression data from aging study on mouse spermatogonial stem/progenitor cell population

Project description:In mouse, spermatogonial stem/progenitor cells are the progenitor cell which develop to mature sperms through a series of mitotic and meiotic divisions and differentiation. Gfra1 is an established surface marker for mouse spermatogonial stem/progenitor cells. In this study, we used a transcriptomic approach to investigate the effect of aging on Gfra1-positive and -negative populations of mouse male germ cells. Spermatogonial stem/progenitor cells were isolated from testes of mice at ages 6-day, 21-day, 60-day, and 8-months by magnetic assisted cell sorting (MACS) technique using Gfra1 marker. Transcriptomes among different ages and Gfra1 status were compared.

A regulatory role for CHD4 in maintenance of the spermatogonial stem cell pool

Project description:Maintenance and self-renewal of the spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) population is the cornerstone of male fertility. In this manuscript we have identified a key role for the nucleosome remodelling protein Chromodomain Helicase DNA binding protein 4 (CHD4) in regulating SSC function. Gene expression analyses revealed that CHD4 expression is largely restricted to spermatogonia in the mouse testis, and is particularly enriched in SSCs. Using spermatogonial transplantation techniques and RNAi mediated knockdown it was established that loss of Chd4 expression significantly impairs SSC regenerative capacity, resulting in a ~50% reduction in colonisation of recipient testes. A single cell RNA-seq comparison depicted reduced expression of ‘self-renewal’ genes such as Gfra1 and Pten following Chd4 knockdown, along with increased expression of signature progenitor genes, Neurog3 and Dazl. Co-immunoprecipitation analyses demonstrated that CHD4 regulates gene expression in spermatogonia not only though its traditional association with the remodelling complex NuRD, but also via interaction with the GDNF-responsive transcription factor SALL4. Cumulatively, the results of this study depict a previously unappreciated fundamental role for CHD4 in controlling fate decisions in the spermatogonial pool.

Splicing factor SRSF1 is essential for homing of precursor spermatogonial stem cells in mice

Project description:Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) provide a continuous spermatogenesis and male fertility. However, the underlying mechanisms of alternative splicing (AS) in mouse SSCs are still largely unclear. We demonstrated that SRSF1 is essential for gene expression and splicing in mouse SSCs. Specific deletion of Srsf1 in mouse germ cells impairs self-renewal and homing of SSCs leading to male infertility. Whole-mount staining data showed the absence of germ cells in the testes of adult cKO mice, which indicates severe non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) in cKO mice. Expression of SSC-related genes (Gfra1, Pou5f1, Plzf, Dnd1, Stra8, and Taf4b) was significantly reduced in the testes of conditional knockout (cKO) mice. CLIP-seq data found that SSC-related genes (Plzf, Id4, Setdb1, Stra8, Tial1, Bcas2, Ddx5, Srsf10, Uhrf1, and Bud31) were bound by SRSF1 in the mouse testes. Moreover, multi-omics analysis suggests that SRSF1 directly binds and regulates the expression of Tial1 via AS to implement SSCs self-renewal and differentiation. Collectively, our data reveal the critical role of an SRSF1-mediated AS in SSCs self-renewal and differentiation, which may provide a framework to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of the post-transcriptional network underlying SSCs.

Single-Cell RNA-seq Transcriptome Profiling from Male Germ Cells Isolated from Late Fetal and Neonatal Mouse Testes

Project description:To better understand the underlying dynamics driving formation of the spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) pool during development, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing on mouse germ cells isolated from testes during late fetal and early postnatal development. Transcriptome profiling revealed that a subset of prospermatogonia during late fetal development becomes preprogrammed to adopt the SSC fate in postnatal life. Further computational analysis mapped the transcriptional dynamics of the SSC trajectory through developmental time to identify novel pathways and regulators involved in formation of the foundational SSC pool. Paired with in vivo gene expression analysis via a multi-transgenic mouse model and functional assessment of germ cell fate via transplantation, the findings of our study present a model for which stem cell fate is preprogrammed in the spermatogenic lineage.

Proteomic analysis of the effects of DDX20 deletion in spermatogonia

Project description:To investigate the role of DDX20 in spermatogenesis, we generated Ddx20 flox/flox Ddx4-Cre mice to make a germ cell-specific Ddx20 knockout, and isolated spermatogonia from four-day-old mouse testes by THY1 magnetic beads. We then performed proteomic analysis using protein lysates obtained from THY1 + spermatogonia.

DIS3 mediated RNA decay is required for maintenance of spermatogenic lineage in mice

Project description:Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) self-renewal and differentiation are the foundation for continious spermatognenesis in mice. Here, we investigate the essential role of DIS3 in maintaining SSC homeostasis and facilitating germ cell differentiation to ensure male fertility. Conditional inactivation of DIS3 in male germ cells have severely impaired SSC self-renewal and differentiation, which results in the failure of spermatogenesis associated with a Sertoli cell-only syndrome and adult sterility. RNA-seq analysis reveals that Dis3 deficiency abolishes its nucleolytic activity and causes significant dysregulation of the expression of transcripts in Dis3 mutant testes. We have also found that the pervasive transcription products described previously, such as Promoter Upstream Transcripts (PROMPTs), accumulate robustly upon DIS3 dysfunction in Dis3 cKO testes. In addition, scRNA-seq analysis indicates that DIS3 mutation significantly impairs germline stem cell development that blocks stem cell proliferation and differentiation. Overall, we show that DIS3 ribonuclease plays a critical role in the maintenance of spermatogenic lineage during spermatogenesis in mice.
