Mouse sertoli cells Palmitoylated protein MS

ABSTRACT: Elevated palmitic acid, a most abundant saturated fatty acid, is a risk factor for obesity complications. Here, we report that palmitic acid impairs spermatogenesis by inducing abnormal palmitoylation in Sertoli cells. Firstly, we proposed a correlation between palmitic acid and spermatogenesis by reporting a significant elevation of serum palmitic acid levels in patients with dyszoospermia. In palmitic acid -treated mice, the blood-testis barrier was found to be disrupted, and decreased tight junction protein expression was observed in palmitic acid-treated Sertoli cells. Palmitic acid entered the endoplasmic reticulum and induced endoplasmic reticulum stress, resulting in damage to Sertoli cell barriers.

Blood-testis barrier (BTB) damage promotes spermatogenesis dysfunction, which is a critical cause of male infertility. Dyslipidemia has been correlated with male infertility, but the major hazardous lipid and the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we firstly discovered an elevation of palmitic acid (PA) and a decrease of inhibin B in patients with severe dyszoospermia, which leaded us to explore the effects of PA on Sertoli cells. We observed a damage of BTB by PA. PA penetrati ...[more]

Project description:Sertoli cells provide nutrients and support for germ cell differentiation and maintain a stable microenvironment for spermatogenesis. Comprehensive identification of Sertoli cellular proteins is important in understanding spermatogenesis. In this study, we performed an integrative analysis of the proteome and phosphoproteome to explore the role of Sertoli cells in spermatogenesis. A total of 2912 and 753 proteins were identified from the proteome and phosphoproteome in Sertoli cells; 438 proteins were common to the proteome and phosphoproteome. In the proteome, ACTG1, ACTB, ACTA2, MYH9 were the most abundant proteins. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis indicated that most of the proteins are involved in the processes of localization, biosynthesis, gene expression, and transport. In addition, part of proteins related to Sertoli cell functions were also enriched. In the phosphoproteome, most of the proteins are involved in gene expression and the RNA metabolic process; the pathways mainly involve the spliceosome, mitogen-activated protein kinase（MAPK） signaling pathway, focal adhesion, and tight junctions. The pleckstrin homology-like domain is the most highly enriched protein domain in phosphoproteins. Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and protein kinases C (PKCs) were found to be highly active kinases in kinase-substrate network analysis. Ten proteins most closely related to network stability were found in the analysis of network interactions of proteins identified jointly by the phosphoproteome and proteome. Through immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence verification of vimentin, it was found that there were localization differences between phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated vimentin in testicular tissue. This study is the first in-depth proteomic and phosphoproteomic analysis of the buffalo testicular Sertoli cells. The results provide insight into the role of Sertoli cells in spermatogenesis and provide clues for further study of male reproduction.

Project description:The Mongolian horse has the characteristics of cold resistance, rough feeding resistance, good endurance, strong disease resistance and strong gregariousness. The normal production of sperm in male mammals is the basis of reproduction, and spermatogenesis includes a mitosis, meiosis twice and metamorphosis of sperm cells. The MEI1 gene is involved in the meiosis cycle and is required for normal meiosis chromosome association. Previous studies have shown that alternative splicing of MEI1 gene can promote spermatogenesis in Mongolian horses. In this study, the expression of MEI1 gene was determined by immunofluorescence in the third generation Mongolian horse testicular sertoli cells. Two overexpressed lentiviral vectors with MXE and SE events of MEI1 gene were constructed and successfully infected into sertoli cells. CCK-8 was used to detect the proliferation and activity of infected cells, transcripomics and metabolomics were used to screen and annotate differential genes and differential metabolites in the two sertoli cells with MXE and SE events. After 72 h of virus infection, 193 differentially expressed genes and 11360 differentially expressed metabolites were screened, 109 up-regulated genes including MEI1 and 84 down-regulated genes, 7494 up-regulated metabolites and 3866 down-regulated metabolites. Differential genes and differential metabolites were mainly enriched in several pathways related to spermatogenesis. Differential genes such as IL31RA, ATP2B3, CASQ2 were highly expressed in SE events, IL11, PRLR, CCR7 were highly expressed in MXE events. Metabolites such as folic acid and spermine were highly expressed in SE events, citric acid and glutathione were highly expressed in MXE events. This suggested that both MXE and SE events of MEI1 gene can promote the activity of spermatogenesis signaling pathway, and the gene influences spermatogenesis by regulating the expression of metabolites. In summary, MXE and SE events of MEI1 gene can promote the expression of spermatogen-related genes and metabolites, and genes affect spermatogenesis by regulating the expression of metabolites. The results of this study laid a theoretical foundation for exploring the regulatory mechanism of different alternative splicing events on spermatogenesis in Mongolian horse.
