Project description:Purpose: The purpose of this study is to characterize genes whose expressions in the initial segment (IS)-caput epididymis were affected by unilateral orchidectomy (UOD), bilateral orchidectomy (BOD), and Nell2 gene ablation. Methods: The unilateral or bilateral orchidectomy of WT mice was performed from 8 weeks old and continued for 4 weeks until tissue sampling at 12 weeks old. Contralateral epididymis was used as a control for UOD. Sham operation was also done as a control for BOD. Nell2-/- mice and their control WT mice were used wthen they were 14-week-old. IS-caput epididymal mRNA profiles were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina NovaSeq6000. Results: RNA-seq data identified differentially expressed transcripts. Conclusions: Our results show that the expression of many genes was affected by UOD, BOD, and Nell2 ablation.

Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to detect differentially expressed genes, between Wild type (WT) and Nell2-/- (Nell2-KO) caput epididymis by RNA sequencing Methods: Caput epidiymal mRNA profiles of 14-week-old wild-type (WT) and NEL-like 2 knockout (Nell2-KO) mice were generated by deep sequencing, in quadplicate, using Illumina GAIIx. Results: RNA-seq data identified differentially expressed transcripts; 26 genes showed differential transcript expression between the WT and Nell2-KO caput epididymis, with WT RPKM ≥100, a fold change ≤0.1, and t-test p value <0.05. Altered expression of 26 genes identified. Conclusions: Our results show that the expression of many genes were downregulated in Nell2-KO caput epididymis compared with WT one.

Project description:Purpose: The purpose of this study is to characterize gene expression in the Ovch2-ablated mouse initial segment (IS)-caput epididymis. Methods: Ovch2-/- mice were used when they were 14-week-old. IS-caput epididymal mRNA profiles were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina NovaSeq6000. Results: RNA-seq data identified differentially expressed transcripts. Conclusions: Our results show that the expression of many genes was not critically affected by Ovch2 ablation.

Project description:Purpose: The purpose of this study is to characterize genes whose expressions in the initial segment (IS)-caput epididymis were affected by busulfan intraperitoneal injection. Methods: 8-week-old wild-type mice were treated with single intraperitoneal injection of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or busulfan (40mg/kg body weight) disolved in DMSO and mice were left for 4 weeks until tissue sampling at 12 weeks old. IS-caput epididymal mRNA profiles were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina NovaSeq6000. Results: RNA-seq data identified differentially expressed transcripts. Conclusions: Our results show that the expression of many genes was affected by busulfan injection.

Project description:The role of estrogen and testosterone in the regulation of gene expression in the proximal reproductive tract is not completely understood. To address this question, mice were treated with testosterone or estradiol and RNA from the efferent ducts and caput epididymis was processed and hybridized to Affymetrix MOE 430 2.0 microarrays. Analysis of array output identified probe sets in each tissue with altered levels in hormone treated versus control animals. Hormone treatment efficacy was confirmed by determination of serum hormone levels pre- and post-treatment and observed changes in transcript levels of previously reported hormone-responsive genes. Tissue-specific hormone sensitivity was observed with 2867 and 3197 probe sets changing significantly in the efferent ducts after estrogen and testosterone treatment, respectively. In the caput epididymis, 117 and 268 probe sets changed after estrogen and testosterone treatment, respectively, demonstrating a greater response to hormone in the efferent ducts than the caput epididymis. Transcripts sharing similar profiles in the intact and hormone-treated animals compared with castrated controls were also identified. Ontological analysis of probe sets revealed a significant number of hormone-regulated transcripts encode proteins associated with lipid metabolism, transcription and steroid metabolism in both tissues. Real-time RT-PCR was employed to confirm array data and investigate other potential hormone-responsive regulators of proximal reproductive tract function. The results of this work reveal previously unknown responses to estrogen in the caput epididymis and to testosterone in the efferent ducts as well as tissue specific hormone sensitivity in the proximal reproductive tract. Adult animals were castrated or sham-castrated, allowed to recover for 14 days, and then treated with 0.015 mg estradiol (castrated), 0.015 mg testosterone propionate (castrated), or vehicle (castrated and sham-castrated as biological controls) in duplicate. Efferent duct and caput epididymis was collected from each sample and analyzed. Duplicates are included in the provided data and numbered 1 or 2 for each treatment regimen.

Project description:BackgroundThe proximal region of the mouse epididymis plays a pivotal role in sperm transport, sperm maturation, and male fertility. Several studies have focused on segment-dependent gene expression of the mouse epididymis through high-throughput sequencing without the precision of the microdissection.Methods and resultsHerein, we isolated the initial segment (IS) and proximal caput (P-caput) by physical microdissection using an Lcn9-cre; Rosa26tdTomato mouse model. We defined the transcriptome changes of caput epididymis by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), which identified 1,961 genes that were abundantly expressed in the IS and 1,739 genes that were prominently expressed in the P-caput. In addition, we found that many differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were predominantly or uniquely expressed in the epididymis and region-specific genes were highly associated with transport, secretion, sperm motility, fertilization, and male fertility.ConclusionThus, this study provides an RNA-seq resource to identify region-specific genes in the caput epididymis. The epididymal-selective/specific genes are potential targets for male contraception and may provide new insights into understanding segment-specific epididymal microenvironment-mediated sperm transport, maturation, and male fertility.
