Proteomics insights into alpaca embryo development

ABSTRACT: South American camelids (SACs) play an important role in Andean economies, but reproductive inefficiencies, especially early embryonic losses, present significant challenges to herd productivity. This study provides the first proteomic analysis of preimplantation alpaca embryos, offering insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying embryo development and implantation. Using mass spectrometry, we identified 510 proteins in 15-day post-mating (dpm) alpaca embryos. Functional enrichment analysis revealed significant pathways related to cytoskeletal organization, metabolism, embryo elongation, and implantation. Key proteins associated with conceptus elongation, maternal recognition of pregnancy, and steroidogenesis were detected, including keratins (KRT8, KRT18), actin (ACTG1), annexin A2 (ANXA2), and enzymes involved in estradiol and cortisol biosynthesis. Additionally, proteins involved in prostaglandin synthesis, including PTGS2, were identified, supporting their role in conceptus elongation and implantation. This pioneering study provides a foundational dataset for understanding alpaca embryo development at the proteomic level, opening new paths for improving reproductive technologies in SACs. The findings highlight the molecular processes driving alpaca embryogenesis and provide a basis for future research on optimizing assisted reproductive technologies in camelids.

Reconstituting the transcriptome and DNA methylome landscapes of human implantation at single-cell resolution

Project description:Implantation is a milestone event during mammalian embryogenesis. Due to the extreme difficulty of obtaining in vivo human early post-implantation embryos, the gene regulatory network and epigenetics controlling human embryo implantation remains elusive. Here, combining an in vitro culture system for human post-implantation development and single-cell omics sequencing technologies, over 10,000 single cells at five representative stages of pre/post-implantation development were systematically analyzed. Unsupervised dimensionality reduction and clustering algorithm of the transcriptome data show stepwise implantation routes for the epiblast, primitive endoderm, and trophectoderm lineages, suggesting preparation for the establishment of a mother-to-offspring connection after implantation. Female embryos showed asynchronous progress of dosage loss of X chromosomes during implantation. Furthermore, using the single cell trio-Seq (scTrio-Seq) strategy, re-methylation of the genomes of all the three lineages was unambiguously revealed. Surprisingly, the genome re-methylation of PE lineage were much slower than both EPI and TE lineages during the implantation process, indicating distinct methylome features between EPI and PE although both of which were derived from ICM. Collectively, our work paves the way for understanding the complex molecular mechanisms that regulate human embryo implantation, informing new insights and future efforts in early embryonic development and reproductive medicine.

Reconstituting the transcriptome and DNA methylome landscapes of human implantation

Project description:Implantation is a milestone event during mammalian embryogenesis. Implantation failure is a nonnegligible cause of human early pregnancy loss. Due to the extreme difficulty of obtaining in vivo human early post-implantation embryos, it remains elusive how the gene regulatory network and epigenetic mechanisms control human embryo implantation. Here, combining an in vitro culture system for human post-implantation development and single-cell omics sequencing technologies, over 8,000 individual cells from 65 human peri-implantation embryos were systematically analyzed. Unsupervised dimensionality reduction and clustering algorithm of the transcriptome data show stepwise implantation routes for the epiblast (EPI), primitive endoderm (PE), and trophectoderm (TE) lineages, suggesting robust preparation for the proper establishment of a mother-to-offspring connection during implantation. Female embryos showed initiation of random X chromosome inactivation based on analysis of parental allele-specific expression of X chromosome-linked genes during implantation. Surprisingly, by the single-cell Trio-Seq (scTrio-Seq) analysis, the genome re-methylation of PE lineage was shown to be much slower than those of both EPI and TE lineages during implantation process, indicating distinct DNA methylome re-establishment features between EPI and PE although both of which were derived from inner cell mass (ICM). Collectively, our work paves the way for understanding the complex molecular mechanisms that regulate human embryo implantation, offering new insights and future efforts in early embryonic development and reproductive medicine.

Impact of media supplementation on a transcriptional activity of porcine embryos produced in vitro

Project description:The production of embryos in vitro caused a revolution in the field of assisted reproduction technologies, which currently allows the manipulation and selection of embryos before implantation. One of the key aspects of this process is the maturation of oocytes in a controlled in vitro environment. In this article, we focused on the impact of precisely chemically modified FLI maturation medium and its potential in improving the efficiency of in vitro production of porcine embryos. Based on our findings, we demonstrated the positive influence of FLI medium in the evaluation of in vitro maturation, in vitro embryo production, EGA detection, transcriptomic profile and proteomic analysis, which was confirmed by the positive activation of the embryonal genome in the 4blastoembry stage of parthenogenetically activated embryos.

Role of Estrogen Receptor Î± in Mouse Oviduct Gene Expression

Project description:Estrogen receptor Î± (ERÎ±) is a nuclear transcription factor crucial for the female reproductive function. We previously reported that mice lacking epithelial ERÎ± in the epithelial cells of female reproductive tract (Wnt7aCre+;Esr1fl/fl, conditional knockout or cKO) were infertile, in part, due to an implantation defect. To determine if oviductal dysfunction also contributed to their infertility, we examined the fertilization rates and embryo development in vivo during the first few days of pregnancy. At 0.5 days post coitum (dpc), cKO females had significantly fewer zygotes than wild type control littermates (WT). At 1.5 dpc, cKO females had no 2-cell embryos at all; only dead oocytes or embryos and empty zona pellucidas were observed. These results indicate that lack of ERÎ± in the oviductal epithelium resulted in alterations in the oviductal microenvironment that were detrimental to the embryos. Microarray analysis revealed dramatic differences in gene expression between cKO and WT oviducts collected at 0.5 dpc and significant but less dramatic differences at 1.5 dpc. These findings indicate that signaling via epithelial ERÎ± is essential to generate an oviductal milieu supportive of fertilization and embryo development.and may have implications for infertility in women. The oviduct samples were collected from female reproductive tract epithelial ER Î± knockout (cKO) and wild type control littermates (WT) at days 1 and 2 of pregnancy (0.5 and 1.5 days post coitum). Each experimental group contains 4 replicates. Gene expression analysis was conducted by using Agilent Whole Mouse Genome 4Ã?44 multiplex format oligo arrays (no. 014868; Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA)

Ectopic histone modification in extra-embryonic tissues influence implantation and placenta development of IVF embryos (RNA-Seq 2)

Project description:Assisted reproductive technology (ART), especially in vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo transfer have been widely applied in the treatment of human infertility. However, the accumulating evidences indicate that IVF is associated with low pregnancy rate, placental defect and the metabolic diseases in offspring. Here, we identify ectopic histone H3K4me3 in extraembryonic ectoderm (ExE) as an important reason for embryo implantation failure and extra-embryonic development abnormalities of IVF embryos. IVF manipulation notably disrupt extra-embryonic tissue-specific gene expression, 334 epiblast (Epi)-specific genes and 24 Epi-specific transcription factors were abnormally expressed in ExE of IVF embryos at embryonic day 7.5 (E7.5). Combined histone modification analysis reveal that ectopic H3K4me3 modification at the Epi-active promoter resulted in increased expression of these genes in ExE of IVF embryos at E7.5. By konckdown the expression of H3K4me3 recruited regulator Kmt2e, which highly expressed in IVF embryos, can improve the development of IVF embryo and reduce the abnormal gene expression in ExE. Therefore, our research identifies the abnormal H3K4me3 modification occupied in extra-embryonic tissue may be an important reason for implantation failure and abnormal placental development of IVF embryo.

A high-temporal-resolution single-cell transcriptomic atlas of pre- to post-implantation transition in mouse embryogenesis

Project description:Embryo implantation is a pivotal phase in early mammalian embryonic development. However, the mechanisms guiding the embryos from pre- to post-implantation remain largely elusive. Here, we present a comprehensive transcriptomics atlas of mouse embryo implantation, characterized with high temporal resolution. We collected mouse embryos at distinct stages— before, during, and after implantation— and performed single-cell RNA sequencing. Our analysis of 22,171 single-cell transcriptomes elucidates the developmental trajectories encompassing the entire implantation process.
