Expression analysis of Wv/Wv fetal gonads

ABSTRACT: Following sex determination, XY and XX gonads develop into a testis and an ovary, respectively. Depending on the sex of the gonad, resident germ cells will subsequently be committed to either spermatogenesis or oogenesis. In this study we took advantage of the Wv/Wv mouse genetic model, in which gonads are almost devoided of germ cells, to uncover gene expression underlying fetal germ cell development. Male and Female gonads were collected at 12, 14 and 16 days post coitum (dpc) from wild-type and Wv/Wv mouse embryos. Total RNAs were extracted and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays. Expression signals from male and female gonads or from wild-type and mutant gonads were compared to identify sexually dimorphic genes as well as genes expressed in germ cell during fetal gonad development.

The commitment of germ cells to either oogenesis or spermatogenesis occurs during fetal gonad development: germ cells enter meiosis or mitotic arrest, depending on whether they reside within an ovary or a testis, respectively. Despite the critical importance of this step for sexual reproduction, gene networks underlying germ cell development have remained only partially understood. Taking advantage of the W(v) mouse model, in which gonads lack germ cells, we conducted a microarray study to ident ...[more]

Mouse female gonad quantitative MS

Project description:We constructed a comparative proteome profile of female mouse fetal gonads at specific time points (11.5, 12.5, and 13.5 days post coitum), spanning a critical window for initiation of meiosis in female germ cells. We identified 3666 proteins, of which 473 were differentially expressed.

Expression data from Human seminal vesicles

Project description:The human seminal plasma is a potential source of biomarkers for male reproductive disorders. A tissue-profiling analysis of the main organs participating in the secretion of this body fluid was conducted to identify tissue-specific genes along the male reproductive tract. Total RNA from non pathological Human seminal vesicles were extracted and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays. Expression signals in seminal vesicles (present dataset), prostates (GEO; GSE7307), epidydimises (GEO; GSE7808) and testicular samples (Arrayexpress; E-TABM-130) were compared to identify genes that are detected in one of these organs only.

Reprogramming of somatic cell fate in fetal mouse testis by FOXL2

Project description:From fish to human, FOXL2 is considered one of the most conserved markers of ovarian granulosa cell identity. To determine if the sole expression of FOXL2 can determine ovarian differentiation, we created a mouse model that allows the conditional expression of FOXL2. Rosa26-CAG-LSL-Foxl2 mice were crossed to Sf1-Cre mice to induce the expression of FOXL2 in the SF1+ somatic cells of the fetal gonads.When FOXL2 was induced in the somatic cells of the undifferentiated testis, the Sertoli cells and consequently the other cell lineages composing the fetal gonads were feminized, resulting in a partial testis-to-ovary sex reversal We created a mouse genetic model that conditionaly express FOXL2 in the somatic cells of the fetal gonads. All embryos used in this study resulted from the crossing between Rosa26-CAG-LSL-Foxl2+/f and Sf1-cre+/Tg mice. XX and XY fetal gonads were collected at embryonic day E14.5. This microarray analysis led to the identification of the genes misregulated upon ectopic induction of FOXL2 in the fetal testis, and showed that FOXL2 expression resulted in feminization of both somatic and germ cells of the fetal gonad.

A spatiotemporal regulatory network for steroidogenesis of human fetal adrenal glands and gonads

Project description:Human fetal adrenal glands are huge endocrine organ, produce prodigious quantities of dehydroepiandrosterone and its sulfate (DHEA/DHEAS), which is the most prominent precursor for steroid hormones, adrenal gonads dysfunction leads to states of virilization or effemination. However, for a long time the function of fetal adrenal in initial sex differentiation is unclear. Herein, we draw out a single-cell transcriptional landscape of human fetal adrenals and gonad from 6 to 14 gestational weeks (GW). We found that the adrenal glands begin to express CYP17A1 steroid-related enzyme much early than testis, subsequent testis steroid express pattern support de novo or halfway testosterone synthesis. Excepted steroidogenic cell, notably, the immune cells or neurocyte shows steroid metabolism or regulation ability, such as CD5L+ macrophage interacted with steroidogenic cell and SRD5A1+ AKR1C2+ chromaffin cells synthesis active testosterone DHT through backdoor pathway. Sex different were found at adrenal glands and gonad development: there is a small HSD3B2 peak occurs only in female adrenal glands around 10-12 GW within the time window of sex differentiation. SST expression levels or SST+ cells quantity in adrenal glands and gonads are different in two gender. Our research indicates that a sex different in spatial and temporal disparities steroidogenic regulatory networks in adrenal glands and gonads, facilitating further exploration of development and physiology of human adrenal glands.

Single-cell analysis of fetal human gonads (male and female) using 10X genomics

Project description:Single cell transcriptomic analyses are increasingly being employed to study human developmental processes in the gonad to advance our understanding of human gametogenesis. However, to date, these analyses have primarily focused on germ cells, while the somatic niche has been largely overlooked. Moreover, a comparative transcriptomic analysis of both female and male early gonad development on the single cell level is currently lacking. We performed single cell RNA-Seq on whole human fetal gonads from first and second trimester, both from male and female. We define gene expression profiles, which include novel marker genes, of major gonadal somatic cell types and validate them on the protein level. We identify the genetic signature of early human male rete cells, both in male and in female gonads. Overall, our study provides an in-depth molecular characterization of both male and female somatic cell types in early fetal gonads.

gonads gene expression profiling in WT and Sox9flox/flox; Sf1:creTr/+ mice

Project description:In mammals, gonadal differentiation is the first step of sex determination, and the transcription factor Sox9 promotes testis differentiation. Here we used the XY Sox9flox/flox; Sf1:creTr/+ mouse model and show that the lack of Sox9 expression induces a full sex reversal of E13.5 XY Sox9flox/flox; Sf1:creTr/+ gonads compared to XY Sox9flox/flox. Keywords: gonads gene expression profiling in WT and Sox9flox/flox; Sf1:creTr/+ mice 3 WT versus 3 Sox9flox/flox; Sf1:creTr/+ mice.

Retinoic acid signaling is dispensable for somatic development and function of the developing ovary

Project description:Retinoic acid (RA) is a potent inducer of cell differentiation and plays an essential role in sex-specific germ cell development in the mammalian gonad. RA is essential for male gametogenesis and hence fertility. However, RA can also disrupt sexual cell fate in somatic cells of the testis, promoting transdifferentiation of male Sertoli cells to female granulosa-like cells when the male sexual regulator Dmrt1 is absent. The feminizing ability of RA in the somatic testis suggests that RA might normally play a role in somatic cell differentiation or cell fate maintenance in the ovary. To test for this possibility we disrupted RA signaling in somatic cells of the early fetal ovary using three genetic strategies and one pharmaceutical approach. We found that deleting all three RA receptors (RARs) in the XX somatic gonad at the time of sex determination did not significantly affect ovarian differentiation, follicle development, or female fertility. Transcriptome analysis of adult triple mutant ovaries revealed remarkably little effect on gene expression in the absence of somatic RAR function. Likewise, deletion of three RA synthesis enzymes (Aldha1-3) at the time of sex determination did not masculinize the ovary. A dominant-negative RAR transgene altered granulosa cell proliferation, likely due to interference with a non-RA signaling pathway, but did not affect granulosa cell specification or fertility. Finally, culture of fetal XX gonads with an RAR antagonist blocked germ cell meiotic initiation but did not disrupt sex-biased gene expression. We conclude that RA signaling, although crucial in the ovary for meiotic initiation, is not required for granulosa cell specification, differentiation, or reproductive function.
