Project description:Production of embryos with high developmental competence by somatic cell nuclear transfer (scNT) is far less efficient than for in vitro fertilized (IVF) embryos, likely due to an accumulation of errors in genome reprogramming that results in aberrant expression of RNA transcripts, including messenger RNAs (mRNA) and, possibly, microRNAs (miRNA). Thus, our objectives were to use RNAseq to determine the dynamics of mRNA expression in early developing scNT and IVF embryos in the context of the maternal-to-embryonic transition (MET) and to correlate apparent transcriptional dysregulation in cloned embryos with miRNA expression profiles. Comparisons between scNT and IVF embryos indicated large scale transcriptome differences, which were most evident at the 8-cell and morula stages for genes associated with biological functions critical for the MET. For two miRNAs previously identified as differentially expressed in scNT morulae, miR-34a and miR-345, negative correlations with some predicted mRNA targets were apparent, though not widespread among the majority of predicted targets. Moreover, although large-scale aberrations in expression of mRNAs were evident during the MET in cattle scNT embryos, these changes were not consistently correlated with aberrations in miRNA expression at the same developmental stage, suggesting that other mechanisms controlling gene expression may be involved.

Project description:The efficiency of somatic cell nuclear transfer (scNT) for production of viable offspring is relatively low as compared to in vitro fertilization (IVF), presumably due to deficiencies in epigenetic reprogramming of the donor cell genome. Such defects may also involve the population of small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs), which are important during early embryonic developmeNT.The objective of this study was to examine dynamic changes in relative abundance of sncRNAs during the maternal-to embryonic transition (MET) in bovine embryos produced by scNT as compared to IVF by using RNA sequencing. When comparing populations of miRNA in scNT versus IVF embryos, only miR-2340, miR-345, and miR34a were differentially expressed in morulae, though many more miRNAs were differentially expressed when comparing across developmental stages. Also of interest, distinct populations of piwi-interacting like RNAs (pilRNAs) were identified in bovine embryos prior to and during embryonic genome activation (EGA) as compared bovine embryos post EGA and differentiated cells. Overall, sncRNA sequencing analysis of preimplantation embryos revealed largely similar profiles of sncRNAs for IVF and scNT embryos at the 2-cell, 8-cell, morula and blastocyst stages of developmeNT.However, these sncRNA profiles, including miRNA, piRNA and tRNA fragments, were notably distinct prior to and after completion of the MET.

Project description:Implantation is crucial for placental development which directly impacts fetal growth and pregnancy success with possible consequences on post-natal health. We postulated that early perturbations of the conceptus-maternal environment communication may alter the endometrium physiology that could account for the final reproductive outcome. Using cattle as an animal model, we compared gene expression profiles of the endometrial caruncular and intercaruncular areas during the critical period of implantation in three types of pregnancies: artificial insemination (AI), in vitro fertilization with embryo transfer (IVF-ET) or somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). Less than 35% of the differentially expressed genes were found to be common between AI, IVF-ET, and SCNT conditions. Compared to AI, numerous biological functions and several canonical pathways and genes were found to be significantly affected in IVF-ET or SCNT, with a major impact on metabolism and immune function in SCNT. Our data show that the endometrium can fine-tune its physiology and could be considered as a biological sensor in response to pregnancy manipulations. Determining the limits of the endometrial plasticity should bring new insights on the contribution of the maternal compartment to the pregnancy outlet.

Project description:Implantation is crucial for placental development whose quality will directly impact fetal growth and pregnancy success with possible consequences on post-natal health. We postulated that early perturbations of the conceptus-maternal environment communication may alter the endometrium physiology that could account for the final reproductive outcome. Using cattle as an animal model, we compared gene expression profiles of the endometrial caruncular and intercaruncular areas at implantation in three types of pregnancies, namely artificial insemination (AI), in vitro fertilization with embryo transfer (IVF-ET) or somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). Less than 35% of the differentially regulated genes were found to be common between AI, IVF-ET, and SCNT conditions.

Project description:Global hypermethylations of histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9) tri- and di-methylation (H3K9me3/2) have been identified in bovine cloned embryos at the embryonic genome activation (EGA) stage (eight-cell stage), but the intrinsic reason for these anomalies remains elusive. To ascertain key factors responsible for aberrant H3K9 methylation, we performed RNA sequencing of transcripts in eight-cell bovine in vitro fertilized (IVF) and SCNT embryo. From the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between IVF and SCNT embryos, we identified that the unsuccessful reactivation of two histone demethylases, KDM4D and KDM4E, is responsible for the incomplete H3K9me3/2 demethylation in SCNT embryos at the EGA stage. By mRNA injection, ectopic expression of either KDM4D or KDM4E could erase H3K9me3/2 barriers, improve blastocyst formation, and elevate cloning efficiency of bovine SCNT. To examine the detailed genes responsive to KDM4E overexpression, we also performed RNA sequencing of bovine eight-cell SCNT embryos with KDM4E compensation and found an obvious restoration of global transcriptional patterns in SCNT embryos. Our study first provides the transcriptome data set of bovine IVF and SCNT embryos during EGA with or without KDM4E overexpression, which advance the understanding of incomplete nuclear reprogramming, and contribute to the practical implications for genetically modified livestock breeding using SCNT.
