Project description:Study the effect of forskolin, dipyridamol and IBMX (here called FID) supplementation in the in vitro maturation medium for an incubation of 6 hrs on the transcriptomics of bovine cumulus cells. 3 biological replicates of cumulus cells derived from cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) supplemented with FID (CC-FID) vs. cumulus cells without FID (Ct-6H, REFERENCE) were contrasted. Each replicate was subjected to a dye-swap procedure.

Project description:This study investigated the cumulus cell (CC) transcriptomic changes during the oocyte developmental competence acquisition period. Six dairy cows were used for 24 oocyte collections and received FSH twice daily over 3 days, followed by FSH withdrawal for 20, 44, 68 and 92 h in four different oestrous cycles for each of the six cows. Half of the cumulusâoocyte complexes were subjected to in vitro maturation, fertilisation and culture to assess blastocyst rate. The other half of the CC underwent microarray analysis and qRT-PCR.

Project description:Background The domestic pig is an important livestock species for meat production worldwide and is becoming an established biomedical research model. As a result, there is a strong interest in the factors that affect the efficient production of viable embryos and offspring in this species using either in vivo or in vitro production methods. A limited understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in this critical physiological process has inhibited our ability to fully elucidate these factors. The use of next generation deep sequencing and microarray technology are powerful tools for delineation of molecular pathways during early embryonic development of mammals. Here, we report on the assessment of a porcine-embryo-specific microarray platform created from a large expressed sequence tag (EST) analysis generated by Roche/454 next-generation sequencing of cDNAs constructed from critical stages of in vivo or in vitro porcine preimplantation embryos. Results Two cDNA libraries constructed from in vitro and in vivo produced preimplantation porcine embryos were normalized and sequenced using the 454 Titanium pyrosequencing technology. Treatment of cDNA libraries with BAL 31 nuclease digestion resulted in a 2 fold improvement of sequencing quality compared with untreated libraries. Over one million high quality EST sequences were obtained from this process and used to create an augmented porcine genome catalogue. Using the resulting dataset the EMbryogene Porcine Version 1 (EMPV1) microarray was developed and is composed of 43,795 probes printed onto a 4 × 44 K Agilent array. Based on the initial probe sequences annotation, the EMPV1 featured 17,409 protein-coding, 473 pseudogenes, 46 retrotransposed, 2,359 non-coding RNA (snRNA, snoRNA, etc.), 4,121 splice variants in 2,862 genes and a total of 12,324 Novel Transcript Regions (NTR). After re-annotation, the total unique genes increased from 11,961 to 16,281 and 1.9% of them belonged to a large olfactory receptor (OR) gene family. Quality control of EMPV1 was performed using porcine cumulus–oocyte complexes (COC) as well as early developmental stages of embryos. This revealed an even distribution of ten clusters of spike-in control spots and array to array (dye-swap) correction was 0.97. Further bioinformatics analysis revealed that our microarray probes hybridized with more developmental related transcripts from embryonic labelled targets when compared to COC. Conclusions Using next-generation deep sequencing we have produced a large EST dataset to provide the selection of probe sequences for the development of the EMPV1 microarray platform. The quality of this embryo- specific array was confirmed with the high level of reproducibility using current Agilent microarray technology. Despite the current limitations for full NTR annotation, due to the incomplete porcine genome sequencing project, a significant number of NTR were annotated using Version 10 of porcine genome and human RefSeq RNA database to enrich the orthologous genes with unique gene symbol (GS) for Gene Ontology (GO) search. GO terms confirmed that many are related relevant developmental processes. With more than an estimated 20 thousands unique genes represented on the EMPV1, this platform will provide the foundation for future research into the in vivo and in vitro factors that affect the viability of the porcine embryos, as well as the effects of these factors on the live offspring that result from these embryos. Two biological samples.

Project description:IVP blastocysts exposed to hyperglycaemia during early phase of development, i.e from zygote to 8-16 cells stages. Genes expression analysis is done at day 7.5 (7 days of embryo culture). Total RNA form glucose treated blastocysts (4 replicates of 10 embryos each) and control treated blastocysts (4 replicates of 10 embryos each) were compared on a 2-color micro-array design and dye swap.

Project description:The decreased rate of pregnancy obtained in cattle using frozen in vitro embryos compared to in vivo embryos has been associated with over-accumulation of intracellular lipid, which causes cell damage during cryopreservation. It is believed that the higher lipid content of blastomeres of bovine embryos produced in vitro results in darker coloured cytoplasm which could be a consequence of impaired mitochondrial function. In this study, L-carnitine was used as a treatment to reduce embryonic lipid content by increasing metabolism in cultured bovine embryos. We have observed previously that in vivo embryos of different dairy breed collected from cows housed and fed under the same conditions differed in lipid content and metabolism. As such, breed effects between Holstein and Jersey were also accounted for general appearance, lipid composition, mitochondrial activity and gene expression. Adding L-carnitine to the embryo culture medium reduced the lipid content in both breeds due to increased mitochondrial activity. L-carnitine vs controls, in 4 replicates for each breed, with dye-swaps.

Project description:Differences between high- and low-potential COCs were examined by transcriptomic analysis of CC biopsies obtained from COCs of 2-6mm follicles from slaughterhouse ovaries before individual in vitro maturation, fertilization and culture until day 8 post-fertilization. Each COC was individually tracked and categorized based on his fate: embryo at blastocyst stage (CC-Blast) or embryo arrested at 2- to 8-cell stage (CC-2-8-cells). Average blastocyst rates were 27.7% for individual culture, and 31.2% for group control (not significantly different). Five cumulus biopsies per replicate were pooled for each fate. Three CC replicates underwent transcriptomic analysis using RNA microarray assay. Each cumulus cell sample is composed of 5 COC biopsies, 3 samples or biological replicates for each fate (CC-blast or CC-2-8-cells) were analysed by microarray. CC-2-8-cells condition was used as reference.
