Project description:The objective of this study was to identify the expression profile of miRNAs in porcine oocytes derived from follicles of different sizes using RNA high throughput sequencing technology. Oocytes were aspirated from large (3-6 mm) or small (<2 mm) ovarian follicles and tested for developmental competence and chromatin configurations. Small RNA libraries were constructed from both groups and then sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq500. Oocytes from large follicles showed higher developmental competence and different chromatin configuration compared to small oocyte group. In total, 167 and 162 known miRNAs were detected in large and small oocyte groups, respectively with 153 miRNAs were commonly expressed in both groups. In addition, 155 predicted novel miRNAs were detected and quantified. MiR-205, miR-16, miR-148a-3p, miR-125b, and let-7 family were among the top 10 highly abundantly expressed miRNAs in both oocyte groups. Further analysis showed that 8 miRNAs were differentially expressed (DE) between both groups (>2 fold change) with 4 up- and 4 down-regulated miRNAs in large compared to small oocyte group. Target gene prediction followed by KEGG pathway analysis revealed 46 pathways that were enriched with miRNA-target genes. Oocyte meiosis pathway and signaling pathways including FoxO, PI3K-Akt, TGFβ, and cAMP were predictably targeted by DE miRNAs. These results give more insights into the potential role of miRNAs in controlling oocyte developmental competence.

Project description:Reproductive success begins with a healthy egg (a competent oocyte). An oocyte acquires its developmental competence during oogenesis in preparation for accomplishing the critical developmental transition from completion of meiosis to initiation of early embryogenesis. Here we comprehensively characterised the maternal role of major subunits of Hira (i.e. Hira, Cabin1 and Zscan4) during oocyte-to-embryo transition.

Project description:Gene expression profiles of granulosa cells from rat ovarian follicles by Affymetrix rat whole genome array showed that twelve genes were up-regulated, while one gene down-regulated more than 1.5 folds in the normal developmental competence group compared with those in the poor developmental competence group. Gene ontology classification showed that the up-regulated genes included lysyl oxidase and nerve growth factor receptor associated protein 1, which are important in the regulation of protein-lysine 6-oxidase activity, and in apoptosis induction, respectively. The down-regulated genes included glycoprotein-4-beta galactosyltransferase 2, which is involved in the regulation of extracellular matrix organization and biogenesis. Experiment Overall Design: Immature rats were injected with eCG and 24h thereafter with anti-eCG antibody to induce follicular atresia or with pre-immune serum to stimulate follicle development. A high percentage (30-50%, normal developmental competence, NDC) of oocytes from eCG/pre-immune serum group developed to term after embryo transfer compared to those from eCG/anti-eCG (0%, poor developmental competence, PDC). Gene expression profiles of granulosa cells from the above oocyte-collected follicles were assessed by Affymetrix rat whole genome array.

Project description:<p>The metabolic profile of follicular fluid (FF) has been investigated to look for biomarkers for oocyte quality. Resolvin E1 (RvE1), a potent pro-resolving mediator, was reported to have protective action in cell function. The study aimed to examine the predictive value of RvE1 for oocyte quality and to explore the cellular mechanism of RvE1 in improving oocyte competence. Metabolic profiles of 80 FF samples showed a higher level of RvE1 in group A (blastocysts scored ≥ B3BC and B3CB according to Gardner's blastocyst scoring system, N=36) than that of group B (blastocysts scored < B3BC and B3CB, N=44, P=.0018). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that RvE1 level in FF below 8.96 pg/ml (AUC:0.75; 95%CI: 0.64 – 0.86; P=.00012) could predict poor oocyte quality with specificity of 97.22%, suggesting RvE1 as a potential biomarker to exclude inferior oocytes. Besides, the level of RvE1 was found to be significantly lower in FF than in serum (57.49 to 17.62 pg/ml; P=.0037) and was gradually accumulated in the culture medium of cumulus cells (CCs) during cell culture, which indicated that RvE1 came from both blood exudates and local secretion. The in vitro experiment revealed the cellular mechanism of RvE1 in improving oocyte quality by decreasing the cumulus cell apoptotic rate and increasing cell viability and proliferation. It is the first time that the role of RvE1 in reproduction is explored. In conclusion, RvE1 is valuable as a potential exclusive biomarker for oocyte selection and plays a role in improving oocyte quality.</p>

Project description:Cytoplasmic and nuclear maturation of oocytes as well as interaction with the surrounding cumulus cells are important features relevant to the acquisition of developmental competence. We used brilliant cresyl blue (BCB) to distinguish oocytes with low activity of the enzyme Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase, and thus separated fully grown (BCB+) oocytes from those in the growing phase (BCB-). The BCB+ oocytes are twice as likely to produce a blastocyst in vitro compared to BCB- oocytes (P<0.01). We analyzed mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number in single oocytes and determined that BCB- oocytes have 1.3-fold more copies than BCB+ oocytes (P=0.004). We also interrogated the transcriptome of oocytes and surrounding cumulus cells of BCB+ versus BCB- oocytes. There was no differential transcript abundance of genes expressed in oocytes, but we identified 172 genes in cumulus cells with differential transcript abundance (FDR<0.05) based on the BCB staining of their oocyte. Differential gene co-expression analysis between BCB+ and BCB- oocytes and their surrounding cumulus cells revealed dynamic coordination of transcript abundance between both compartments of the cumulus-oocyte complex. We identified a subset of genes whose co-expression in fully grown oocytes (n=75) and their surrounding cumulus cells (n=108) compose a unique profile of the cumulus-oocyte complex. In conclusion, as oocytes transition from growing to fully grown, there is an increase in the likelihood of producing a blastocyst, a reduction of mtDNA copies and no systematic variation of transcript abundance. Cumulus cells present changes in transcript abundance, which reflects in a dynamic co-expression between oocyte and cumulus cells.
