Project description:The vertebrate nuclear hormone receptor steroidogenic factor 1 (SF1; NR5A1) controls reproductive development and regulates the transcription of steroid-modifying cytochrome P450 genes. We find that the SF1-related Drosophila nuclear hormone receptor HR39 is also essential for sexual development. In Hr39 mutant females, the sperm-storing spermathecae and glandular parovaria are absent or defective, causing sterility. Our results indicate that spermathecae and parovaria secrete reproductive tract proteins required for sperm maturation and function, like the mammalian epididymis and female reproductive tract. Hr39 controls the expression of specific cytochrome P450 genes and is required in females both to activate spermathecal secretion and repress male-specific courtship genes such as takeout. Thus, a pathway that, in vertebrates, controls sex-specific steroid hormone production, also mediates reproductive functions in an invertebrate. Our findings suggest that Drosophila can be used to model more aspects of mammalian reproductive biology than previously believed.

Project description:Evidence that persistent environmental pollutants may target the male reproductive system is increasing. The male reproductive system is regulated by secretion of testosterone by testicular Leydig cells, and perturbation of Leydig cells function may have ultimate consequences. 3-methylsulfonyl-DDE (3-MeSO2-DDE) is a potent adrenal toxicants formed from the persistent insecticide DDT. Although studies have revealed endocrine disruptive effect of 3-MeSO2-DDE, the underlying mechanisms at cellular level in steroidogenic Leydig cells remains to be established. The current study addresses the effect of 3-MeSO2-DDE viability, hormone production and proteome response of primary neonatal porcine Leydig cells. The AlamarBlue™ assay was used to evaluate cell viability. Solid phase radioimmunoassay was used to measure concentration of hormones produced by both unstimulated and luteinizing hormone (LH)-stimulated Leydig cells following 48 h exposure. Protein samples from Leydig cells exposed to a non-cytotoxic concentration of 3-MeSO2-DDE (10µM) were subjected to nano-LC-MS/MS and analyzed on a Q Exactive mass spectrometer and quantified using label-free quantitative algorithm. Gene Ontology (GO) and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) were carried out for functional annotation and identification of protein interaction networks. 3-MeSO2-DDE regulated Leydig cell steroidogenesis differentially depending on cell culture condition. Whereas its effect on testosterone secretion at basal condition was stimulatory, the effect on LH-stimulated cells was inhibitory. From triplicate experiments, a total of 7540 proteins were identified in which the abundance of 87 proteins in unstimulated Leydig cells and 146 proteins in LH-stimulated Leydig cells were found to be significantly regulated in response to 3-MeSO2-DDE exposure. These proteins not only are the first reported in relation to 3-MeSO2-DDE exposure, but also display small number of proteins shared between culture conditions, suggesting the action of 3-MeSO2-DDE on several targeted pathways, including mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative phosphorylation, EIF2-signaling, and glutathion-mediated detoxification. Further identification and characterization of these proteins and pathways may build our understanding to the molecular basis of 3-MeSO2-DDE induced endocrine disruption in Leydig cells.

Project description:Steroid hormones regulate essential physiological processes and inadequate levels are associated with various pathological conditions. In testosterone-producing Leydig cells, steroidogenesis is strongly stimulated by LH via its receptor leading to increased cAMP production and expression of the steroidogenic acute regulatory (STAR) protein, which is essential for the initiation of steroidogenesis. Leydig cell steroidogenesis then passively decreases following the rapid degradation of cAMP into AMP by phosphodiesterases. In this study, we show that AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is activated following cAMP breakdown in MA-10 and MLTC-1 Leydig cells. Activated AMPK then actively inhibits cAMP-induced steroidogenesis by repressing the expression of key regulators of steroidogenesis including Star and Nr4a1. Similar results were obtained in Y-1 adrenal cells and in the constitutive steroidogenic cell line R2C. Our data identify AMPK as an active repressor of steroid hormone biosynthesis in steroidogenic cells that is essential to preserve cellular energy and prevent excess steroid production.

Project description:The reproductive physiology of yaks differs significantly from that of other cattle breeds due to late sexual maturity, low fecundity and short oestrus time. How to improve the reproductive efficiency of yaks has become the main research content and goal of yak reproduction technology. In this study, we collected blood samples from adult female yaks (4-8 years old) during different reproductive periods, including the period of anestrus (Y-A), estrus (Y-E) and pregnancy (Y-P), and investigated the changes of RNA expression and steroid hormone levels in yaks during different reproductive periods by using RNA-seq and target metabolomics, and screened for the genes and regulatory pathways that were differentially expressed. and related regulatory pathways. DEGs such as PDK4, ALAS2, GLP1R, SLC25A39, PGAP6, FOS, CD36, MMP9 and BCL-6 were identified to play key roles in ovarian function, follicular development, hormone homeostasis and energy metabolism. Functional annotation and enrichment analysis indicated that DEGs were involved in ovarian angiogenesis, hormone synthesis and follicular development. It was found that SLC25A39 may affect glucocorticoid homeostasis and physiological readiness by regulating energy metabolism during anestrus, MARCHF2 and DHEA may be closely related to reproductive hormone fluctuation and system activation during estrus, glucocorticoid down-regulation in pregnancy and maintenance of hormone homeostasis and regulation of immune tolerance by DHEA. The results of this study provide a theoretical basis for improving the reproductive performance of yaks and further analysing the reproductive characteristics of yaks.

Project description:Male Anophele gambiae mosquitoes transfer the steroid hormone 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) to the female lower reproductive tract during mating. We have shown that this sexually transferred hormone is a key regulator of monandry and oviposition in An. gambiae females. In order to identify possible molecular pathways underlying the effects induced by sexually transferred 20E we investigated the transcriptional response in the atrium and spermatheca at 24 hours after 20E injection in the thorax of virgin females, which delivers to these reproductive tissues 20E levels comparable to those detected after mating. By comparing these results to those of microarrays assessing the post-mating transcriptional response in the female lower reproductive tract (LRT) at 24 hours post copulation, we were able to identify mating responsive genes likely regulated by male transferred 20E. For each experiment atrium and spermatheca were dissected from females 24 hours after 20E or ethanol (10%) injection and transcriptional profiles compared across 4 biological replicates using Agilent two-color microarrays

Project description:In the present study, we have used a quantitative LC-MS/MS approach using total and phosphopeptide-enriched proteins to identify the changes that occur in the proteome and phosphoproteome of MA-10 Leydig cells during both the stimulatory phase (Fsk/cAMP treatment) and inhibitory phase (AICAR-mediated activation of AMPK) of steroidogenesis. The phosphorylation level of several proteins, including some never before described in Leydig cells, was significantly altered during stimulation and inhibition of steroidogenesis. Our data provide new key insights into the finely tuned and dynamic processes that ensure adequate steroid hormone production.
