Project description:Human testicular cells were isolated mechanically and enzymatically from testis of braindead donors and from urological samples. The expression of genes was studied at baseline and 1,25(OH)2D treated conditions. We used microarrays to analyze the gene expression underlying vitamin D metabolism in human testis cells and identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes during this process. Testicular primary cells were treated with 100nM 1,25(OH)2D for 24h and gene expression studied by microarray on transcript level.

Project description:Purpose: miRNAs, a member of the small RNA, play critical roles in the mammalian spermatogenesis. Spermatogonia was the foundation of spermatogenesis and valuable for the study of spermatogenesis. However, it is still not clear that the expression profiling of the miRNAs in spermatogonia of dairy goat. Methods: The CD49f was one of the surface markers for spermatogonia enrichment by MACS. Therefore, we used CD49f microbeads antibody to purify CD49f-positive and negative cells of dairy goat testicular cells by MACS (Magnetic Activated Cell Sorting), and then in-depth analyzed the miRNA expression in these cells using Illumina sequencing technology. Results: The results of miRNAs expression profiling in purified CD49f-positive and negative testicular cells showed that 933 were miRNAs upregulated in CD49f-positive cells and 916 were miRNAs upregulated in CD49f-negative cells with a 2-fold increase, respectively; some spermatogonial stem cells(SSCs) specific miRNAs and marker genes in testis had a higher level expression in CD49f-positive testicular cells, such as miR-221, miR-23a, miR-29b, miR-24, miR-29a, miR-199b, miR-199a, miR-27a, miR-21. Conclusions: our comparative miRNAome data provided some useful miRNAs profiling data of dairy goat spermatogonia cells and suggested CD49f could be used to enrich dairy goat spermatogonia-like cells, including SSCs. miRNA profiles of goat CD49f-positive and negative testicular cells were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina GAIIx

Project description:Objective: Klinefelter Syndrome (KS) is the most common sexual chromosome abnormality (47,XXY) and represents the first genetic cause of male infertility. The mechanisms leading to KS testis degeneration are still unclear and no therapy is so far available for affected patients. The present study is aimed to unravel information about molecules playing a key role in the disruption of the spermatogenesis. Design: Gene expression profiles analysis of KS azoospermic testis versus normal testis, could provide useful information about the molecular basis of the alteration of the spermatogenesis. Materials and Methods: Transcriptome analysis was performed carrying out gene expression profile by a whole genome microarray approach on testis biopsies obtained from 6 azoospermic non-mosaic KS men and from 3 controls, for a total of 12 experiments. T-test and False Discovery Rate were used to evaluate differentially expressed genes. Identified transcripts were analysed by Ingenuity Pathways Analysis software to disclose genes biological functions. Results: Data analysis revealed the differentially up- and down-expression, in KS testis versus the control ones, of 656 and 247 genes related to Endocrine system development and function, Lipid metabolism, Reproductive disease, Free radical scavenging, and Cell death. Conclusions: Take together these data show the presence of several genes involved in testis microenvironment deregulation leading to the spermatogenesis failure. This information, associated with an early diagnosis could help to unravel possible therapeutic targets for testis failure prevention and limitation. Gene expression profile of 6 azoospermic KS testicular biopsies versus 3 pooled control testicular biposies form patients with normal spermatogenesis. A total of 12 experiments was carried out including biological and technical replicates.

Project description:ITo derive a scaffold from human testis for the purpose of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, we developed a method to produce a cytocompatible decellularized testicular matrix (DTM) while maintaining the native tissue-specific characteristics and components. The potential benefits of tissue-specific scaffolds consisting of naturally-derived extracellular matrix (ECM) have been demonstrated using a wide variety of animal and human tissue sources. However, so far, testis scaffolds have never been considered for constructive remodelling purposes. We have therefore developed a protocol for the preparation of cell-free extracellular matrix and characterized the material extensively using a combination of proteomics, immunohistochemsitry, and cell population assays. To prepare cell-free matrix, human cadaveric testicular tissue was exposed for 24 h or 48 h to 1% Triton X-100 and/or 1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The extent of decellularization was evaluated by histology. Confirmation of cell removal in DTM was done by a DNA quantification technique. The protein composition was analysed by LC-MS/MS. The retention of testicular tissue-specific characteristics was evaluated by immunohistochemistry, Alcian blue staining and scanning electron microscopy. Soluble toxicity and testicular cell attachment was assessed to check the cytocompatibility of DTM scaffolds. Histological analysis showed that DTM could be obtained by mechanical agitation in 1% SDS for 24 h. The resulting DTM was found to be clear of cells while retaining the typical three-dimensional structure. Proteomics analysis revelaed the presence of the major components of the native tissue scaffold, including collagen type I and IV, fibronectin, laminin and glycosaminoglycans. In addition, numerous additional ECM proteins in DTM were detected, indicating its complex nature. Importantly, we demonstrated that DTM scaffolds are not cytotoxic, as evidenced by MTT assay showing a normal fibroblast proliferation activity after indirect exposure, and support testicular cell attachment and infiltration.

Project description:In the present study we carried out testicular gene expression profiling of patients with AZFc microdeletion, idiopathic infertility and normal spermatogenesis, in order to identify up- and downregulated genes in the different conditions, and to verify the presence of specific molecular pathways leading to the spermatogenic damage in patients with AZFc deletions. All samples of patients with AZFc deletion clustered together, showing downregulation of several genes related to spermatogenesis. In this study, we analyzed testis expression profiles of 16 patients with different phenotypes, including men with AZFc deletions and men with idiopathic infertility. All pathological human testis RNAs were hybridized against normal testis reference RNA samples (obstructive azoospermia), while the three samples with normal spermatogenesis were hybridized against a control represented by an home-made RNA universal reference consisting of a commercial human purified tissue RNA pool (brain, liver, muscle and lung) (Clontech, Terra Bella, CA, USA) . These latter hybridizations were carried out in order to generate a profile of genes specifically expressed in normal testis.

Project description:Ascending bacterial infections of the male genitourinary tract by Escherichia coli are an important cause of male infertility. Thus understanding mechanisms by which immunocompetent cells such as testicular macrophages (TM) respond to infection and how bacterial pathogens manipulate defense pathways is of great relevance. Following infection with uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) whole genome expression profiling revealed induction of the calcium-dependent nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) signaling pathway in TM as well as in peritoneal macrophages (PM) that were used in comparison. UPEC-dependent NFAT activation was confirmed in cultured TM and in TM using an in vivo infection model. Elevated expression of NFATC2-regulated anti-inflammatory cytokines was found in TM (IL-4, IL-13) and PM (IL-3, IL-4, IL-13). NFATC2 is activated by a rapid influx of calcium caused by the UPEC pore forming toxin alpha-hemolysin. Mutant analysis identified alpha-hemolysin as the main virulent factor responsible for UPEC-dependant suppression of IL-6 and TNF-a cytokine release from PM. Alpha-hemolysin caused differential activation of MAP kinase and AP-1 signaling pathways in TM and PM leading to differential expression profiles of key pro-inflammatory cytokines in PM (IL-1a, IL-1b and IL-6 downregulated) and TM (IL-1b and IL-6 upregulated). In contrast to PM, treatment with lipopolysaccharide did not result in activation of the NFkB pathway in TM as shown by lack of degradation of IkBa and lack of pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion (IL-6, TNF-a). In conclusion, these results propose a mechanism how TM can defend against microbes, while at the same time they are able to maintain the immune privileged status of the testis. 2 Macrophage populations ( peritoneal, testicular) infected with UPEC CFT073; timepoints of mrna harvest at 0 min (control), 30 min and 60 min; of each point 2 biological replicates; of each repliccate 2 technical replicates: summa summarum: 2*((1+1+1)*2*2)=24 samples
