Project description:Sohlh1 and Sohlh2 are germ cell-specific basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors critical in early folliculogenesis. We discovered that Sohlh1 and Sohlh2 knockout females lose oocytes after birth and few remains by postnatal day 14. Here, we show that many genes preferentially expressed in the oocytes are misregulated by Sohlh1 and/or Sohlh2 deficiency. Total RNA samples isolated from wildtype, Sohlh1 KO and Sohlh2 KO mouse newborn ovaries were arrayed on the Illumina BeadChip MouseWG-6 2.0 arrays. We have 4 replicates for wildtype and Sohlh1 KO and 3 replicates for Sohlh2 KO.

Project description:Germ-cell transcription factors control gene networks that regulate primordial follicle formation and oocyte differentiation during early, postnatal mouse oogenesis. Taking advantage of gene-edited mice lacking transcription factors expressed in female germ cells, we analyzed global gene expression profiles in perinatal ovaries from wildtype, FiglaNull, Lhx8Null and SohlhNull mice. Figla deficiency dysregulates expression of meiosis-related genes (e.g., Sycp3, Rad51 and Msy2) and a variety of genes (e.g., Nobox, Lhx8, Taf4b, Sohlh1, Sohlh2 and Gdf9) associated with oocyte growth and differentiation. The absence of FIGLA significantly impedes meiotic progression, causes DNA damage and results in oocyte apoptosis. Moreover, we find that FIGLA and other transcriptional regulators (e.g., NOBOX, LHX8, SOHLH1 and SOHLH2) are co-expressed in the same subset of germ cells in perinatal ovaries and Figla ablation dramatically disrupts KIT, NOBOX, LHX8, SOHLH1 and SOHLH2 expression. In addition, not only do FIGLA, SOHLH1 and LHX8 cross-regulate each other, they also cooperate by direct interaction with each during early oocyte development and share downstream gene targets. Thus, our findings substantiate a major role for FIGLA, LHX8 and SOHLH1 as multifunctional regulators of networks necessary for oocyte maintenance and differentiation during early folliculogenesis.

Project description:Ovarian folliculogenesis in mammals is a complex process involving cross talk between germ and somatic cells. Carefully orchestrated expression of transcription factors, cell adhesion molecules and growth factors are required for success. We have identified a germ-cell specific basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor, FIGLA (Factor In GermLine, Alpha) and demonstrated its involvement in two independent developmental processes: formation of primordial follicle and coordinate expression of zona pellucida genes. Taking advantage of Figla null mouse line, we have used microarrays to identify potential downstream target genes. Using high stringent cut offs, we find that FIGLA functions a key regulatory molecule in coordinating expression of the NALP family of genes, genes of known oocyte-specific expression and a set of functionally un-annotated genes. These data implicate FIGLA as a central regulator of oocyte-specific genes that play role in folliculogenesis and early development. We analyzed 8 groups of arrays, 26 arrays total. Four arrays of WT newborn ovary RNA (cy5) versus KO newborn ovary RNA (Cy3), then four arrays of the same samples dye-reversed. Three arrays of WT E17.5 ovary RNA (cy5) versus KO E17.5 ovary RNA (Cy3), then three arrays of the same samples dye-reversed. Three arrays of WT E14.5 ovary RNA (cy5) versus KO E14.5 ovary RNA (Cy3), then three arrays of the same samples dye-reversed. Three arrays of WT E12.5 ovary RNA (cy5) versus KO E12.5 ovary RNA (Cy3), then three arrays of the same samples dye-reversed.

Project description:ERβ is predominantly expressed in granulosa cells of the ovary, where its important for normal ovarian function and plays a vital role in folliculogenesis. However, the genome wide binding landscape of ERβ in the ovary was not determined and its interaction targets are unknown. To characterize the mechanism of ERβ, we performed ChIP-Seq using endogenous ERβ expression and mapped the cistrome of ERβ in the ovary using a validated antibody.

Project description:Background Correct achievement of early ovarian folliculogenesis is a crucial phase for further ovarian function. This process is closely regulated by cell-cell interactions and coordinated expression of genes from oocyte and granulosa cells. But, despite of the large number of studies, little is known about the precise gene expression patterns driving early folliculogenesis. The experimental limitations concerned the very small size of these follicles and the mixture of the different developmental stages within an ovary that make the study of isolated follicular components much more difficult. The recently developed laser capture microdissection (LCM) technique coupled with microarrays experiments is promising in addressing the molecular specificity of each follicular compartment. Nevertheless, the isolation of unique cells or group of cells is still challenging to maintain RNA quality during this process and to obtain sufficient amount of RNA. In this study, we described a method allowing the analysis of oocyte and granulosa cells gene expression during the first stages of sheep early folliculogenesis. Results First we developed a new fixation protocol using a frizzed 70% ethanol fixation solution that ensures correct single cell capture and RNA integrity during microdissection time. After LCM capture of the compartments and follicular stages, RNA extraction and amplification, the expression of 6 oocyte-specific genes (SOHLH2, MAEL, MATER, VASA, GDF9, BMP15) and 3 granulosa cell-specific genes (KITLG, GATA4, AMH) confirmed the purity of the samples and documented their ovine expression profiles. Then, using bovine Affymetrix chip, we identified for the first time, a global gene expression for each follicular compartment during early developmental stages. Particularly the granulosa cell data set is quite unique. 1050 granulosa cell specific transcripts compared to oocyte and 759 oocyte specific transcripts were detected. The analysis of the expression of 2 genes (SIRT7, FST) confirmed this specificity of expression. Finally, the integration of the data stated the 3 main physiological events involved in early folliculogenesis and provided descriptive elements that confirmed the relevance and the potential of the LCM-derived RNAs. Conclusions This method should contribute through an additional genome wide expression profiling to give insights on molecular mechanisms involved in stage transitions and cell type interplays. The 2 ovine follicular compartments (i.e. granulosa cells (G) and oocytes (O) were captured using LCM technology for each early stage (primordial (Pd), primary (Pm), secondary (Sec) follicles. The RNA of each group was extracted using Picopure RNA Isolation kit (Arcturus) and subjected to 2 round T7 amplification (RiboAmp®HS PLUS kit, Arcturus). Ovine microarray experiments were performed using the Affymetrix Bovine Expression Array. First the quality of the cross-species hybridizations was checked by comparison of hybridization data of ovine fetal ovary RNA with bovine fetal ovary ones, generated with the Affymetrix standard protocol (protocole 1). Then, three biotin-labeling protocols were compared from ovine fetal ovary total RNA: protocol 1; protocol 2 (Biotin-labeled cRNAs were synthesized following Affymetrix protocol using the second-round cDNAs from RiboAmp®HS kit as templates); protocol 3 (Arcturus biotin turboTM labeling kit from aRNA after the 2 round amplification using RiboAmp®HS kit). Last , one LCM-derived aRNA sample of each group was labeled using the Arcturus biotin turboTM labeling kit (protocol 3) and hybridized to Affymetrix Bovine Expression arrays. Images were interpreted using Microarray Suite version 5.0 (MAS 5.0) in GCOS with scaling (100) and without normalization.

Project description:Background: The initial formation of follicular antrum (iFFA) is a milestone in folliculogenesis, which serves as a boundary between gonadotropin (GTH) -independent folliculogenesis and GTH-dependent folliculogenesis and endows the follicle's ability to acquire response to GTHs and continue to survive. However, iFFA is a barren field in folliculogenesis research, which do not match its physiological significance. Methods:In this study, transcriptome sequencing was used to comprehensively analyze the changes in the life activities of cells in the ovary during iFFA, and then the regulatory mechanism of iFFA was deduced based on the results of omics analysis, and it was systematically verified by experiments. Result: Herein, we conducted in vivo and in vitro experiments to studied iFFA in a mouse model, and revealed that: (1) iFFA is a physiological process of active cell proliferation, increased energy expenditure, enhanced secretory activity and increased moisture absorption, accompanied by complex changes in epigenetic modification, bioclock regulation, and cell junctions; (2) iFFA and blastocoel formation may be conservatively regulated in fluid accumulation, and tight junctions, ion pumps and aquaporins underlie the structural, kinetic and transport foundations for fluid accumulation during iFAA, respectively; (3) mTOR-CNP is the main signal cascade regulating iFFA, it initiated iFFA by targeting tight junction/ion pumps/aquaporins and follicular cell proliferation; (4) FSH controls iFFA by targeting the intra-ovarian mTOR-CNP cascade; (5) mTOR activator could be used as an improver to increase the efficiency of in vitro follicular culture technology. Conclusion: Overall, this study elucidated the changes in follicular cells' life activities in preparation for iFFA, proposed the model of "Dam-Pump-Pipe" to explain the accumulation of follicular fluid, and confirmed that FSH-mTOR-CNP-Tight junction/Ion pumps/Aquaporins is the core cascade controlling iFFA. These findings would help to fill in the gaps in iFFA research, and enrich the theory of folliculogenesis regulation.
