Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), the most common cause of anovulatory infertility, is characterized by increased ovarian androgen production, arrested follicle development, and is frequently associated with insulin resistance. These PCOS phenotypes are associated with exaggerated ovarian responsiveness to FSH and increased pregnancy loss. To examine whether the perturbations in follicle growth and the intrafollicular environment affects development of the mature PCOS oocyte, genes that are differentially expressed in PCOS compared to normal oocytes were defined using microarray analysis. This analysis detected approximately 8000 transcripts. Hierarchical clustering and principal component analysis revealed differences in global gene expression profiles between normal and PCOS oocytes. 374 genes had a statistically-significant increase or decrease in mRNA abundance in PCOS oocytes. A subset of these genes was associated with chromosome alignment and segregation during mitosis and/or meiosis, suggesting that increased mRNAs for these proteins may negatively affect oocyte maturation and/or early embryonic development. Of the 374 differentially expressed genes, 68 contained putative androgen receptor, retinoic acid receptor, and/or peroxisome proliferating receptor gamma binding sites, including 9 of the genes involved in chromosome alignment and segregation. These analyses demonstrated that normal and PCOS oocytes that are morphologically indistinguishable and of high quality exhibit different gene expression profiles. Furthermore, altered mRNA levels in the PCOS oocyte may contribute to defects in meiosis and/or mitosis which might impair oocyte competence for early development and therefore contribute to poor pregnancy outcome in PCOS. Experiment Overall Design: A single MII oocyte, defined by one polar body in the perivitelline space and no visible nuclear structure in the cytoplasm, was collected from 6 individual NL and 6 individual PCOS ovaries, placed immediately in TRIzol (Sigma, St. Louis MO), and stored at -80 C until further study. Total RNA was isolated from each oocyte and subjected to three rounds of linear amplification with the Ovation Biotin RNA Amplification and Labeling System (NuGen Technologies, San Carlos CA) per the manufacturerâs instructions. RNA from the GeneChip Eukaryotic Poly-A RNA Control Kit (Affymetrix, Santa Clara CA) was amplified and labeled under the same conditions for a positive control. Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 microarray chips (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) were hybridized at the University of Pennsylvania Microarray Core Facility. Briefly, the linear-amplified, biotin-labled cDNA from 6 NL (N1-N6) and 6 PCOS (P1-P6) oocytes was hybridized to individual Affymetrix U133 chips. The fluorescence intensity of each chip was normalized to a trimmed mean signal of 150. Each transcript on the U133 chip was defined as present or absent in each oocyte sample using the Affymetrix Microarray Suite 5.0.

Project description:Lean polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) women have a greater proportion of android (abdominal) fat, increased numbers of small subcutaneous (SC) abdominal adipocytes and preferential intra-abdominal fat accumulation. This study examines whether abnormal gene expression of SC abdominal adipose stem cells (ASCs) from lean PCOS women underlies this altered abdominal adipose structure-function. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from PCOS and NL subcutaneous adipose tissue. Differential expression of at least 1.5-fold change (P<0.05) were obtained in 120 genes (48 upregulated, 72 downregulated) of SC abdominal ASCs from PCOS versus NL women

Project description:We have sequenced miRNA libraries from human embryonic, neural and foetal mesenchymal stem cells. We report that the majority of miRNA genes encode mature isomers that vary in size by one or more bases at the 3’ and/or 5’ end of the miRNA. Northern blotting for individual miRNAs showed that the proportions of isomiRs expressed by a single miRNA gene often differ between cell and tissue types. IsomiRs were readily co-immunoprecipitated with Argonaute proteins in vivo and were active in luciferase assays, indicating that they are functional. Bioinformatics analysis predicts substantial differences in targeting between miRNAs with minor 5’ differences and in support of this we report that a 5’ isomiR-9-1 gained the ability to inhibit the expression of DNMT3B and NCAM2 but lost the ability to inhibit CDH1 in vitro. This result was confirmed by the use of isomiR-specific sponges. Our analysis of the miRGator database indicates that a small percentage of human miRNA genes express isomiRs as the dominant transcript in certain cell types and analysis of miRBase shows that 5’ isomiRs have replaced canonical miRNAs many times during evolution. This strongly indicates that isomiRs are of functional importance and have contributed to the evolution of miRNA genes

Project description:Objective: The etiology of PCOS is mostly unknown. Existing data support both genetic and environmental factors in its pathogenesis. Design: Prospective case - control study. Setting: University Hospital. Patients: 25 patients undergoing IVF-ICSI treatment. Intervention: Genome-wide oligonucleotide microarray technology was used to study differential gene-expression patterns of cultured human cumulus cells from IVF patients divided into 4 groups according to disease state (PCOS vs. Control) and BMI (Obese vs. Lean). Results: Two differential PCOS gene expression profiles were established: Lean-Type was formed by comparing PCOS lean (PL) vs. non-PCOS lean (NL) individuals; Obese-Type was formed by comparing PCOS obese (PO) vs. non-PCOS (NO) obese patients. Conclusions: Different molecular pathways are associated with PCOS in Lean and Obese individuals, as demonstrated by gene expression profiling of cumulus cells. Our findings provide insights into the molecular pathogenesis of PCOS. We used microarrays to study the gene expression of human cultured cumulus cells. We compared the genes expression of lean PCOS, Obese PCOS, lean controls and obese controls. Different molecular pathways are associated with PCOS in Lean and Obese patients.
