The comparative proteomic analysis of bovine embryos developed in vivo or in vitro reveals the contribution of the maternal environment to early embryo

ABSTRACT: Despite many improvements with in vitro culture systems, the quality and developmental ability of mammalian embryos produced in vitro is still lower than their in vivo counterparts. To bring knowledge to answer this question, we used a mass spectrometry (MS) approach to compare the protein content of bovine embryos that were conceived in vivo or produced in vitro. A total of 38 pools of grade-1 quality bovine embryos at the 4-6 cell, 8-12 cell, morula, compact morula and blastocyst stages developed either in vivo or in vitro were analyzed by nano-liquid chromatography coupled with label-free quantitative mass spectrometry, allowing the identification of 3,028 proteins. Multivariate analysis of quantified proteins showed a clear separation of embryo pools according to their in vivo or in vitro origin at all stages. Three clusters of differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) according to embryo origin were evidenced, including 463 proteins more abundant in vivo than in vitro across development, and 314 and 222 proteins more abundant in vitro than in vivo before and after the morula stage, respectively. The functional analysis of proteins found more abundant in vivo showed an enrichment in carbohydrate metabolism and cytoplasmic cellular components. Proteins found more abundant in vitro before the morula stage were mostly localized in mitochondrial matrix and involved in ATP-dependent activity while those overabundant after morula stage were mostly localized in the ribonucleoprotein complex and involved in protein synthesis. Oviductin and other proteins previously shown to interact with early embryos in vitro were among the most overabundant proteins after in vivo development. In conclusion, the maternal environment led to faster degradation of mitochondrial proteins at early embryo developmental stages, lower abundance of proteins involved in protein synthesis at the time of embryonic genome activation and a global upregulation of carbohydrate and small molecule metabolic pathways compared to in vitro produced embryos. Furthermore, our data confirm that embryos developed in vivo uptake large amounts of oviduct fluid-derived proteins as soon as the 4-6 cell stage. These data provide new insight into the molecular contribution of the mother to the developmental ability of early embryos and will help designing better in vitro culture systems.

<h4>Background</h4>Despite many improvements with in vitro culture systems, the quality and developmental ability of mammalian embryos produced in vitro are still lower than their in vivo counterparts. Though previous studies have evidenced differences in gene expression between in vivo- and in vitro-derived bovine embryos, there is no comparison at the protein expression level.<h4>Results</h4>A total of 38 pools of grade-1 quality bovine embryos at the 4-6 cell, 8-12 cell, morula, compact morul ...[more]

Project description:The present study aimed to develop and optimize cell derived membrane-coated nanostructures by applying a design of experiments (DoE) to improve the therapeutic index by homotypic targeting in cancer cells. The protein composition of the extracted cell membrane from tumoral cells were assessed by mass spectrometry-based proteomics. PLGA-based nanoparticles encapsulating temozolomide (TMZ NPs) were successfully developed. The coating technology applying the isolated U251 cell membrane (MB) was optimized using a fractional two-level three-factor factorial design. All the formulation runs were systematically characterized regarding their diameter, polydispersity index (PDI), and zeta potential (ZP). Experimental conditions generated by DoE were also subjected to morphological studies using negative-staining transmission electron microscopy (TEM). MicroRaman, Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopies and Confocal microscopy were used as characterization techniques for evaluating the NP-MB nanostructures. Internalization studies were carried out to evaluate the homotypic targeting ability. The results have shown that nearly 80% of plasma membrane proteins were retained in the cell membrane vesicles after the isolation process, including key proteins to the homotypic binding. DoE analysis considering acquired TEM images reveals that condition run five should be the best-optimized procedure to produce the biomimetic cell-derived membrane-coated nanostructure (NP-MB). Raman, FTIR, and confocal characterization results have shown the successful encapsulation of TMZ drug and provided evidence of the effective coating applying the MB. Cell internalization studies corroborate the proteomic data indicating that the optimized NP-MB achieved specific targeting of homotypic tumor cells. The structure should retain the complex biological functions of U251 natural cell membranes while exhibiting physicochemical properties suitable for effective homotypic recognition. Together, these findings provide coverage and a deeper understanding regarding the dynamics around extracted cell membrane and polymeric nanostructures interactions and an in-depth insight into the cell membrane coating technology and the development of optimized biomimetic and bioinspired nanostructured systems.
