Prepubertal Human Spermatogonia and Mouse Gonocytes Share Conserved Gene Expression of Germline Stem Cell Regulatory

ABSTRACT: Full title: Prepubertal Human Spermatogonia and Mouse Gonocytes Share Conserved Gene Expression of Germline Stem Cell Regulatory Molecules Oligonucleotide Microarray Analysis Reveals Novel Genes Expressed in Prepubertal Human Spermatogonia and Mouse Gonocytes Four hundred cells were selected for each group of germ cells or testis somatic cells from three independent testis cell preparations from both human (age 2, 8 and 10 yr) and mouse (age all 3 days) Selected germ and somatic cells were placed in 25 µl Trizol reagent (Invitrogen) immediately after isolation Oligonucleotide microarray was utilized to identify genes enriched in human and mouse selected germ cell populations and testis somatic cells.

Prepubertal human spermatogonia and mouse gonocytes share conserved gene expression of germline stem cell regulatory molecules.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 20091214 51

In the human testis, beginning at approximately 2 months of age, gonocytes are replaced by adult dark (Ad) and pale (Ap) spermatogonia that make up the spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) pool. In mice, the SSC pool arises from gonocytes approximately 6 days after birth. During puberty in both species, complete spermatogenesis is established by cells that differentiate from SSCs. Essentially pure populations of prepubertal human spermatogonia and mouse gonocytes were selected from testis biopsies and ...[more]

Translational activation of developmental mRNAs during neonatal mouse testis development

Project description:The sequence of gene regulatory events that drive neonatal germ cell development in the mammalian testis is not yet clear. We assessed changes in mRNA utilization in the neonatal testis at 1 and 4 dpp, times when the testis contains quiescent gonocytes (1 dpp) and proliferating spermatogonia (4 dpp). There are not thought to be major changes in the nature or number of somatic cells over that interval. We used microarrays to detail the global expression levels of mRNA distribution between non-translating mRNAs and efficiently translating mRNAs during testis development at 1 dpp and 4 dpp Extracts of mouse testes from 1 dpp and 4 dpp CD-1 mice were fractionated over a sucrose gradient in triplicate. Gradients were fractionated using an ISCO gradient fractionation system equipped with a UA-6 detector. The position of the 80S peak defined the boundary between translating and non-translating mRNAs. Pooled non-polysomal (non-translating; fractions 1-3) and heavy polysomal (efficiently translating, fractions 7-13) RNAs were isolated from sucrose gradient fractions for hybridization on Affymetrix 420 2.0 microarrays.

miRNA expression profiling of enriched male germ cell populations

Project description:MicroRNA is essential for the process of spermatogonesis, however analysis of its change in expression within germ cells during this process has been limited. We set out to examine the change in the miRNA expression profile of highly enriched mouse germ cell populations in vairous developmental stages.These inlcuded postnatal gonocytes, day 7-9 spermatogonia as well as pachytene spermatocytes and round spermatids from adult mice Gonocytes (day1) and spermatogonia (day 7-9), pachytene spermatocytes and round spermadits (adult) were enrichged by 2-4% BSA gradient sedementation. Three biological replicates of each cell type were included.

Glis3 plays a crucial role in spermatogenesis [923]

Project description:We show that Glis3 is expressed in gonocytes, SSCs and SPCs, but not in differentiated spermatogonia or subsequent stages of spermatogenesis nor in Sertoli or Leydig cells. We further demonstrate that Glis3-deficiency causes a severe impairment in spermatogenesis in mice. Although the number of gonocytes was slightly diminished in Glis3KO testis, the number undifferentiated, PLZF+ spermatogonia was dramatically reduced leading to a virtual block in the progression of spermatogenesis. Gene expression profiling showed that the expression of a number of genes associated with self-renewal and differentiation of spermatogonial cells was significantly decreased in 1-week-old Glis3KO2 testis. These included a set of GDNF-dependent genes, such as Etv5, Bcl6b, Lhx1, Brachyury, Id4, and Pou3f1, and GDNF-independent genes, such as FoxO1, Oct4, and Zbtb16. Impairment of the nuclear localization of FoxO1 may be in part responsible for the reduced expression of Ret, Lhx1, and Sall4 in Glis3KO2 testis. Our study identifies Glis3 as a novel and critical regulator of early stages of spermatogenesis. Thy1+ cells were isolated from 3 WT and 3 Glis3KO2 testis at postnatal day 4, and total RNAs were purified from them. Then the samples were applied to Agilent mouse genome chip.

Defining prepubertal primate spermatogonial stem cells to address fertility preservation in prepubertal boys

Project description:Antineoplastic treatments for cancer and other non-malignant disorders can result in male long-term or permanent infertility by ablating spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs). Preserving the future fertility of prepubertal patients faced with this prospect cannot rely on sperm banking. SSC transplantation using testicular tissue harvested before sterilizing treatment is a promising approach for restoring fertility, but lack of exclusive biomarkers which can unequivocally identify prepubertal SSCs in any primate species limits the therapeutic potential. To address this, we performed single-cell RNA-seq on unselected testis cells from immature baboons and macaques and compared these cells with published data from pre-pubertal human germ cells functionally-defined mouse SSCs. We found discrete groups of human spermatogonia while baboon and rhesus spermatogonia appeared less heterogenous. Cross-species analysis revealed cell types analogous to human SSCs in baboon and rhesus germ cells, but comparison with mouse SSCs revealed significant differences with primate SSCs. Indeed, a core component of a human SSC gene expression signature was conserved in baboon and rhesus spermatogonia and absent from mouse SSCs. These results further resolve the identity of pre-pubertal human SSCs and define novel pathways that could be leveraged for advancing their selection and propagation in vitro.

Transcription profiling of testis biopsies to investigate testis developmental gene expression in cryptorchid boys at risk of azoospermia

Project description:Despite timely and successful surgery, 32% of patients with bilateral and 10% with unilateral cryptorchidism will develop azoospermia. Cryptorchid boys at risk of azoospermia display a typical testicular histology of impaired mini-puberty at the time of the orchidopexy. During mini-puberty increased gonadotropin and testosterone secretion stimulate transformation of gonocytes into Ad spermatogonia. In azoospermia risk group this transformation is to a great extent impaired. This study aimed to analyze data on whole genome expression signatures of undescended testes at risk of developing azoospermia. Twenty-three testicular biopsies from 22 boys were analyzed (19 testes from 18 boys with cryptorchidism) and 4 contralateral descended testes from patients with testicular agenesis. Expression profiling identified 483 genes not or under-expressed in the azoospermia risk group compared with the control and LAZR groups. Annotated loci were associated with spermatogenesis. Other significant genes were cellular defense response genes and hormone controlled loci involved in spermatogenesis. Some genes transcribed in normal adult meiotic and post-meiotic germ cells are activated in healthy juvenile Ad spermatogonia. Thus, molecular events initiating the testicular expression program at the onset of puberty and maintaining it during adulthood occur very early in prepubertal testes. This molecular event is to a great extent impaired in HAZR group lacking Ad spermatogonia (stem cells for spermatozoa) indicating impaired mini puberty.

Identification of type A spermatogonia specific transcriptome in rainbow trout immature testis

Project description:To identify the transcripts preferentially expressed in type A spermatogonia in rainbow trout immature testis, we compared the transcriptome between type A spermatogonia and testicular somatic cells by microarry analysis. We used fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) to isolate type A spermatogonia or testicular somatic cells from the fishes carrying the transgene, pvasa-GFP, which expresses GFP in spermatogonia. RNA from type A spermatogonia and from testicular somatic cells were hybridized to a microarray after Cy3 labeling.
