Project description:Marsupials have been a powerful comparative model to understand mammalian biology. However, because of the unique characteristics of their embryology, marsupial pluripotency architecture remains to be fully understood, and nobody has succeeded in developing embryonic stem cells (ESCs) from any marsupial species. We have developed an integration-free induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) reprogramming method and established validated iPSC lines from two fully inbred strains of the gray short-tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica). A comprehensive characterization of the M. domestica skin fibroblasts and their reprogrammed iPSCs was performed by genome-wide mRNA sequencing. The established monoiPSCs showed a significant (6,181 DE genes) but highly uniform (between clone r2 at 95% CI = 0.973 ± 0.007) resetting of the cellular transcriptome during reprogramming and were highly similar to eutherian ESCs and iPSCs in their overall transcriptomic and functional profiles. However, monoiPSCs showed unique regulatory architecture of the core pluripotency transcription factors and were more like epiblasts. Our results suggest POU5F1 and the splice variant specific expression of POU5F3 synergistically regulate the opossum pluripotency gene network. It is plausible that POU5F1, POU5F3 splice variant XM_016427856.1, and SOX2 form a self-regulatory network. NANOG expression, however, was specific to monoiPSCs and epiblasts, and displayed a distinct expression profile in embryonic cells. Furthermore, POU5F1 was highly expressed in trophectoderm cells, whereas all other pluripotency transcription factors were significantly downregulated, suggesting that the regulatory architecture of core pluripotency genes of marsupials may be distinct from that of eutherians.

Project description:This experiment contains the subset of data corresponding to gray short-tailed opossum RNA-Seq data from experiment E-GEOD-30352 (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-30352/), which goal is to understand the dynamics of mammalian transcriptome evolution. To study mammalian transcriptome evolution at high resolution, we generated RNA-Seq data (∼3.2 billion Illumina Genome Analyser IIx reads of 76 base pairs) for the polyadenylated RNA fraction of brain (cerebral cortex or whole brain without cerebellum), cerebellum, heart, kidney, liver and testis (usually from one male and one female per somatic tissue and two males for testis) from nine mammalian species: placental mammals (great apes, including humans; rhesus macaque; mouse), marsupials (gray short-tailed opossum) and monotremes (platypus). Corresponding data (∼0.3 billion reads) were generated for a bird (red jungle fowl, a non-domesticated chicken) and used as an evolutionary outgroup.

Project description:The brief placental attachment of the gray short-tailed opossum Monodelphis domestica spans only the final two days of the 14-day pregnancy. During this time the fetus grows rapidly and a pronounced spike in inflammatory signaling occurs. It was recently discovered that these cytokines are produced primarily by fetal cells, the syncytial knots which develop at the end stage of placentation after day 13 of gestation. To investigate this further, we conducted laser microdissection on placental membranes (omphalopleure) at 13.5 days post copulation to compare to published transcriptomes at 12.5 days post copulation. Analysis revealed indeed a pronounced expression of inflammatory cytokines in the 13.5 samples. We hypothesized that placental cytokines act as solicitation signals benefitting the fetus by effects on maternal nutrient transfer. To test this, we administered anti-inflammatory drugs to pregnant opossums during the attachment phase targeted at three arms of this response: IL1A via the receptor inhibitor anakinra, IL6 via the receptor inhibitor tocilizumab, and prostaglandin E2 via the PTGS2 synthetase inhibitor meloxicam. Inhibition of IL-1 and IL-6 signaling resulted in significant increases in fetal biomass, suggesting that they impose a cost to biomass acquisition by offspring rather than acting in direct solicitation. However, in the case of anakinra, saline-treated control individuals showed a greater mean surviving litter size compared to IL-1-inhibited animals. Together, our results suggest that marsupial end-pregnancy inflammation has acquired a novel function modulating both fetal growth and survival during pregnancy.
