Project description:The term gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) describes a range of pathologies derived from the villous trophoblasts of the placenta. These include benign entities such as partial and complete hydatidiform mole as well as invasive cancers such as gestational choriocarcinoma, placental site trophoblastic tumors, and epithelioid trophoblastic tumors. Collectively, the malignant forms of GTD are known as gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN). The risk of GTN following a complete molar pregnancy ranges between 8-25%. Low risk patients are expected to have a high likelihood of response to single agent chemotherapy with methotrexate or actinomycin D, but the incidence of resistance to single agent chemotherapy among low risk patients remains 25-50%. We used gene expression microarrays to compare methotrexate sensitive trophoblastic cell lines to sublines that were conditioned to become methotrexate resistant.

Project description:Complete Hydatidiform Mole (HM) is a gestational trophoblastic disease resulting in hyper proliferation of trophoblast cells and absence of embryo development. Mutations in NLRP7 gene is a major cause of familial recurrent complete HM, where no embryonic tissue is present during the pregnancy. NLRP7 is a novel protein and its function is poorly understood. Lack of NLRP7 in the mouse genome and challenges in studying human embryogenesis as well as human trophoblast differentiation has prevented elucidation of the pathophysiology of this disease and the function of NLRP7 in HM. Here, we established an in vitro model of HM using NLRP7 deficient patient-derived human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Whole transcriptome profiling during trophoblast differentiation revealed that NLRP7 deficiency results in precocious downregulation of pluripotency factors, activation of trophoblast genes and promotes maturation of differentiated extraembryonic cell types such as syncytiotrophoblasts. We further showed that these phenotypes are dependent on BMP4 signaling and BMP pathway inhibition prevented excessive trophoblast differentiation of HM-iPSCs. Taken together, this novel human iPSC model of a genetic placental disease recapitulates aspect of trophoblast biology and sheds light on early human embryogenesis by identifying NLRP7 as an important regulator of this process.

Project description:The objective of the present investigation was to utilize the GeneChip® Porcine Genome Array from Affymetrix possessing 20, 201 unique probe sets to identify differentially expressed genes during rapid trophoblastic elongation and attachment to the uterine surface in the pig. Identification and characterization of conceptus gene expression patterns during rapid trophoblastic elongation and attachment in the pig will provide a better understanding of the events required for successful implantation and embryonic survival.

Project description:Maternal-effect mutations in components of the subcortical maternal complex (SCMC) of the human oocyte can cause early embryonic failure, gestational abnormalities and recurrent pregnancy loss. Enigmatically, they are also associated with DNA methylation abnormalities at imprinted genes in conceptuses, in the devastating gestational abnormality biparental complete hydatidiform mole (BiCHM) or in multi-locus imprinting disease (MLID). However, the developmental timing, genomic extent and mechanistic basis of these imprinting defects are unknown. Here, we studied methylation level of a women reported with familial recurrent hydatidiform mole and multiple pregnancy loss. Genotype analysis revealed homozygous mutation in KHDC3L. We obtained biparental mole from patient (Patient D) and compared it’s whole-genome methylation profile with respect to control placentas and sporadic mole (AnCHM) using Infinium MethylationEPIC BeadChip (WG-317-1001, Illumina). We also used endometrium samples from their respective mother for the comparison purposes. Molar conceptuses were observed with methylation defects at genome-wide level and profound loss of methylation at multiple genome-derived differentially methylated regions (gDMRs) confirming MLID.

Identification and characterization of conceptus gene expression patterns during rapid trophoblastic elongation and attachment in the pig will provide a better understanding of the events required for successful implantation and embryonic survival. Experiment Overall Design: Four chips were used for each morphological stage of development (spherical, tubular, Day 12 filamentous and Day 14 filamentous). RNA utilized for each chip represented a unique pool of conceptus total RNA for the respective morphological stage of development. Prior to target labeling, RNA was further purified (RNeasy MinElute Cleanup, Qiagen, Valencia, CA). Target labeling, GeneChip® hybridization, scanning and quantification were conducted by The University of Tulsa Microarray Core Facility. Affymetrix GeneChip Operating Software (GCOS version 1.1.1, Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) was used to quantitate each GeneChip®. The summary intensities for each probe were loaded into DNA-Chip Analyzer (dChip), version 1.3 for normalization, standardization, and analysis.

Project description:The human placenta is covered by a single multinucleated fetal cell, the syncytiotrophoblast, which is bathed in maternal blood. During all pregnancies, membrane enclosed extracellular vesicles derived from the syncytiotrophoblast are extruded into the maternal blood.The large size of these extracellular vesicles (diameter larger than 10µm) is referred to as trophoblastic debris in this study. We have shown in the past that endothleial cells are involved in clearence of this trophoblastic debris and induction of immune tolerence by trophoblastic debris.This study aimed to characterise the transcriptional changes that occur in human vascular endothelial cells following exposure to trophoblastic debris from normal first trimester placentae. Microarrays were used to probe transcriptomic changes 2 and 21 hours after exposure of endothelial cells (Human microvascular endothelial cell line,HMEC-1) to trophoblastic debris from normal first trimester placentae

The protein content in trophoblastic debris was measured by BCA assay. HMEC-1 was co-cultured with trophoblastic debris (60ug/ml total debris protein contents) for either 2 or 21 hours before RNA extraction. Untreated HMEC-1 at 2 and 21 hours were used as controls.In total, 12 samples were analyzed.

Project description:To gain more insight in the expression and role of microRNAs in trophoblastic cells, we have assessed the miRNA expression pattern of four trophoblastic cell lines and have compared them with the miRNA signature of human isolated 3rd trimester cytotrophoblast cells. Total RNA was reverse-transcribed, pre-amplified with miRNA-specific primers, and loaded into TLDA cards. Quantitative real-time PCR was performed for 768 miRNAs. For each of two cards per sample (A and B), 9 ul of pre-amplified diluted sample was mixed with TaqMan reaction mix (Applied Biosystems) and loaded into miRNA TLDA cards (Applied Biosystems) by centrifugation. Cards were sealed, and qRT-PCR was performed at a real-time thermocycler (ABI-7900, Applied Biosystems) following the manufacturer's recommendations. MiRNA signatures of human primary 3rd trimester trophoblast cells were compared with those of four trophoblastic cell lines
