Little is known of the molecular mechanisms whereby spermatogonia, mitotic germ cells of the testis, self-renew and differentiate into sperm. Here we show that Zfp145, encoding the transcriptional repressor Plzf, has a crucial role in spermatogenesis. Zfp145 expression was restricted to gonocytes and undifferentiated spermatogonia and was absent in tubules of W/W(v) mutants that lack these cells. Mice lacking Zfp145 underwent a progressive loss of spermatogonia with age, associated with increase ...[more]

The histone demethylase KDM1A is essential for the maintenance and differentiation of spermatogonial stem cells and progenitors

Project description:Little is known of the fundamental processes governed by epigenetic mechanisms in the supplier cells of spermatogenesis, the spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs). The histone H3 lysine demethylase KDM1A is expressed in spermatogonia. We hypothesized that KDM1A serves in transcriptional regulation of SSCs and fertility. Using a conditional deletion of Kdm1a [conditional knockout (cKO)] in mouse spermatogonia, we determined that Kdm1a is essential for spermatogenesis as adult cKO males completely lack germ cells. Analysis of postnatal testis development revealed that undifferentiated and differentiating spermatogonial populations form in Kdm1a-cKO animals, yet the majority fail to enter meiosis. Loss of germ cells in the cKO was rapid with none remaining by postnatal day (PND) 21. To gain insight into the mechanistic implications of Kdm1a ablation, we isolated PND 6 spermatogonia enriched for SSCs and analyzed their transcriptome by RNA sequencing. Loss of Kdm1a was associated with altered transcription of 1206 genes. Importantly, differentially expressed genes between control and Kdm1a-cKO animals included those that are essential for SSC and progenitor maintenance and spermatogonial differentiation. The complete loss of fertility and failure to establish spermatogenesis indicate that Kdm1a is a master controller of gene transcription in spermatogonia and is required for SSC and progenitor maintenance and differentiation.

SRSF10 is essential for progenitor spermatogonia expansion by regulating alternative splicing

Project description:Alternative splicing expands the proteome complexity and plays essential roles in tissue development and human diseases. However, how spermatogenesis is regulated by alternative splicing remains largely unknown. Here, using germ cell-specific knockout mouse model, we demonstrate that the splicing factor Srsf10 is essential for spermatogenesis and male fertility. Depletion of Srsf10 in germ cells had little effect on the formation of SSCs but impeded the expansion of progenitor spermatogonia, leading to the failure of spermatogonia differentiation and meiosis initiation. This was evidenced by the decreased expression of progenitor cell markers in bulk RNA-seq, and much less progenitor and differentiating spermatogonia in single-cell RNA-seq data. Furthermore, the expression of genes involved in cell cycle was abnormal in all subtypes of spermatogonia identified in single-cell RNA-seq data. Notably, using isolated spermatogonia, we found that Srsf10 depletion disturbed the alternative splicing of hundreds of genes, which were preferentially associated with cell cycle, mitotic cell cycle checkpoint and germ cell development, including Dazl, Kit, Ret, Sycp1, Nasp and Bora. These data suggest that SRSF10 is critical for the expansion of progenitor spermatogonia by regulating alternative splicing, expanding our understanding of the novel mechanism underlying spermatogenesis.

A regulatory role for CHD4 in maintenance of the spermatogonial stem cell pool

Project description:Maintenance and self-renewal of the spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) population is the cornerstone of male fertility. In this manuscript we have identified a key role for the nucleosome remodelling protein Chromodomain Helicase DNA binding protein 4 (CHD4) in regulating SSC function. Gene expression analyses revealed that CHD4 expression is largely restricted to spermatogonia in the mouse testis, and is particularly enriched in SSCs. Using spermatogonial transplantation techniques and RNAi mediated knockdown it was established that loss of Chd4 expression significantly impairs SSC regenerative capacity, resulting in a ~50% reduction in colonisation of recipient testes. A single cell RNA-seq comparison depicted reduced expression of ‘self-renewal’ genes such as Gfra1 and Pten following Chd4 knockdown, along with increased expression of signature progenitor genes, Neurog3 and Dazl. Co-immunoprecipitation analyses demonstrated that CHD4 regulates gene expression in spermatogonia not only though its traditional association with the remodelling complex NuRD, but also via interaction with the GDNF-responsive transcription factor SALL4. Cumulatively, the results of this study depict a previously unappreciated fundamental role for CHD4 in controlling fate decisions in the spermatogonial pool.

Identification of EOMES-expressing spermatogonial stem cells and their regulation by PLZF

Project description:Long-term maintenance of spermatogenesis in mammals is supported by GDNF, an essential growth factor required for spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) self-renewal. Exploiting a transgenic GDNF overexpression model, which expands and normalizes the pool of undifferentiated spermatogonia between Plzf +/+ and Plzf lu/lu mice, we used RNAseq to identify a rare subpopulation of cells that express EOMES, a T-box transcription factor. Lineage tracing, conditional ablation, and busulfan challenge show that these are long-term SSCs that contribute to steady state spermatogenesis as well as regeneration following chemical injury. EOMES+ SSCs have a lower proliferation index than EOMES− GFRA1+ spermatogonia in wild-type but not in Plzf lu/lu mice. This comparison demonstrates that PLZF regulates their proliferative activity and suggests that EOMES+ SSCs are lost through proliferative exhaustion in Plzf lu/lu mice. Single cell RNA sequencing of EOMES+ cells from Plzf +/+ and Plzf lu/lu mice support a hierarchical model of a slow-cycling long-term SSC population supporting more rapid-cycling short-term SSCs.

Androgen Promotes Differentiation of Promyelocytic Leukemia Zinc Finger (PLZF)+ Spermatogonia pool via Indirect Regulatory Pattern

Project description:We examined a regulatory role of the AR during the process of spermatogenesis. Using a SSCs-Sertoli cells co-culture system, we demonstrated that androgen negatively regulated Plzf in SSCs that co-exist with Sertoli cells. In addition, we identified Gata2 as a target of AR in Sertoli cells, and subsequently observed that Wilms tumor 1 (WT1) and β1-integrin as two putative intermediate molecules to transfer the differentiation signals to SSCs. This signal pathway was further verified using androgen pharmacological deprivation mice model. These results demonstrate a regulatory pattern of androgen in SSCs niche, that androgen turns off the stemness maintenance switch PLZF in undifferentiated spermatogonia populations to promote spermatogenesis in an indirect way via multiple steps of signal transduction.
