Identification of differentially expressed genes between adult males and adult females of the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae)

ABSTRACT: Sex-specific differences in gene expression underlie differences in morphology, behavior, and reproduction. To date, little is known about sex-specific differences in gene expression in spider mites, even though males and females differ markedly in morphology and behavior. In this study, we describe the complement of sex-specific gene expression differences between males and females of the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae), an important generalist herbivore that is a significant crop pest. Gene expression differences were detected from analyses of mRNA-seq data collected with the Illumina method (eight samples in total consisting of four biological replicates each for males and females).

Developmental stage-specific gene expression in the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae)

Project description:We generated 77-bp Illumina reads from single messenger RNA libraries from four diverse developmental stages of the two-spotted spider mite to maximally capture the complement of transcribed sequences across development. Adult, nymphal, larvae and embryonic stages were separated using sieves of various pore sizes, and mites of various developmental stages were carefully selected for transcriptome library preparation. Samples were a mix of males and females to capture male and female patterns of transcription, and were reared on beans (Phaseolus vulgaris cv California Red Kidney). The RNA-Seq data was used for validation of gene models predicted by EuGene, and to study patterns of gene expression across development. Gene expression for spider mites from adult, nymph, larvae and embryonic developmental stages was examined (technical replicates were generated).

Developmental stage-specific small RNA composition in the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae)

Project description:We generated 38-bp Illumina reads from single messenger RNA libraries from three diverse developmental stages of the two-spotted spider mite to capture small RNA diversity across development. Adult, nymphal+larvae and embryonic stages were separated using sieves of various pore sizes, and mites of various developmental stages were carefully selected for small RNA library preparation. Samples were a mix of males and females to capture male and female patterns of small RNA composition and were reared on beans (Phaseolus vulgaris cv California Red Kidney). Small RNA reads were used for miRNA prediction, piRNA discovery, and for quantitation of small RNA-generating loci (i.e. expression across development). Examination of small RNA from spider mites of adult, embryonic and pooled larval/nymphal developmental stages.

Cocaine self-administration induces divergent protein expression in the nucleus accumbens of male and female mice to eliminate basal sex differences

Project description:Substance use disorder (SUD) is a chronic neuropsychiatric condition characterized by long-lasting alterations in the neural circuitry regulating reward and motivation. Substantial work has focused on characterizing the molecular substrates which underlie these persistent changes in neural function and behavior; however, this work has overwhelmingly focused on male subjects, despite mounting clinical and preclinical evidence that females demonstrate dissimilar progression to SUD and responsivity to drugs of abuse, such as cocaine. Here, we show that sex is a critical biological variable that defines drug-induced plasticity in the NAc. Using quantitative mass spectrometry, we assessed the protein expression patterns altered by cocaine self-administration and demonstrate unique molecular profiles between males and females. We show that 1. Cocaine self-administration induces non-overlapping protein expression patterns in males and females and 2. Cocaine specifically acts on baseline sexual dimorphisms to exert these effects. Critically, we find that cocaine administration blunts not only basal sex-differences in the accumbens proteome, but also the pre-existing sex differences in behavior for natural rewards. Together, these data suggest that chronic cocaine is capable of rewriting baseline proteomic function to maintain cocaine-specific behaviors.

Gene expression profiling of the olfactory tissues from sex-separated and sex-combined female and male mice

Project description:We sought to investigate the scope of cellular and molecular changes within a mouse’s olfactory system as a function of its exposure to odors emitted from members of the opposite sex. To this end, we housed mice either separated from members of the opposite sex (sex-separated) or together with members of the opposite sex (sex-combined) until six months of age and then profiled transcript levels within the main olfactory epithelium (MOE), vomeronasal organ (VNO), and olfactory bulb (OB) of the mice via RNA-seq. For each tissue type, we then analyzed gene expression differences between sex-separated males and sex-separated females (SM v SF), sex-combined males and sex-combined females (CM v CF), sex-separated females and sex-combined females (SF v CF), and sex-separated males and sex-combined males (SM v CM). Within both the MOE and VNO, we observed significantly more numerous gene expression differences between males and females when mice were sex-separated as compared to sex-combined. Chemoreceptors were highly enriched among the genes differentially expressed between males and females in sex-separated conditions, and these expression differences were found to reflect differences in the abundance of the corresponding sensory neurons.

Emergence of sex-specific transcriptomes in a sexually-dimorphic brain nucleus

Project description:Sexual dimorphisms in the brain give rise to sex differences in physiology and behavior, yet we have limited understanding of the transcriptomic changes underlying their development. We evaluated developmental transcriptome dynamics for one of the most extreme neuroanatomical sexual dimorphisms in vertebrates - the songbird robust nucleus of the arcopallium (RA). RA is the telencephalic motor output nucleus of the song system. It grows monomorphically for the first few weeks posthatch, then continues growing in males but regresses in females, becoming 5-7 times larger in males. We quantified RA gene expression from monomorphic and dimorphic stages of development in both sexes. Mirroring the morphology, male and female transcriptomes initially resembled one other, then diverged markedly. Thousands of genes showed developmental regulation, corresponding to highly sex-specific biological processes. Males showed enrichments for neuronal growth and morphogenesis, synapse organization, metabolism, and voltage-gated ion channels. Females showed enrichments for cell polarity and differentiation, chemotaxis inhibition, gene silencing, and hormone and immune signaling. Notably, the majority of sex-biased genes in monomorphic RA were sex chromosome Z genes. These findings reveal a profound, sex-specific reorganization of RA’s transcriptome, providing novel insights into potential targets and drivers of sexually dimorphic neurodevelopment.

The influence of the estrous cycle on sex differences in the rat adult medial prefrontal cortex transcriptome [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Hormonal fluctuations throughout the ovarian cycle contribute to femalesâ?? higher vulnerability to anxiety disorders when compared to males. Notably, such sex differences are controlled by regulation of genes in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) including the transcription factor early growth response 1 (Egr1) in rats, which highlights a control of anxiety-like behaviors by sexually-biased gene expression. We therefore undertook a large-scale characterization of sex differences and their interaction with the estrous cycle in the adult mPFC transcriptome and report that proestrus and diestrus females (with high and low ovarian hormones levels, respectively) exhibited a partly-opposed sexually-biased transcriptome. Surprisingly, the extent of regulations within females vastly exceeded sex differences, and support a multi-level reorganization of synaptic function across the estrous cycle. Furthermore, genome-wide analysis of Egr1 binding highlighted its role in controlling the synapse-related genes varying within females, and the sex- and estrous cycle-dependent transcriptomic reorganization in the rat mPFC. Early growth response 1 (Egr1) binding profiling in the adult rat medial prefrontal cortex of males, proestrus females, and diestrus females. A total of 9 animals were used, corresponding to 3 Males, 2 proestrus females, and 4 diestrus females.
