RNA-seq of paired oocytes and granulosa cells from 3M and 12M old mice after natural and superovulation

ABSTRACT: Oocytes and granulosa cells were collected after natural and superovulation in young (3 month-old) and old (12 month-old) mice while conserving pairing information between oocyte and granulosa cells from each cumulus-oocyte-complex (COC). This experimental design allows for the analysis of the effects of ageing and / or superovulation on the transcriptome of COCs. The naming convention for samples is as follows: [ovulation, NO/SO][age, 3M/12M][cell, OC/GC][COC number], meaning that NO12MOC01 and NO12MGC01 are from the same COC. Oocyte and granulosa cell samples were processed for full-length cytoplasmic RNA amplification using slightly modified SMART-seq2 protocol. After amplification of cDNA and library preparation, samples were sequenced on NextSeq 550 using Single-Ended 75bp High-Output kit.

Project description:In mammals, the capacity of the female germ cell, the oocyte, to develop into embryo is acquired throughout meiotic maturation. Immature oocyte cannot be fertilized while mature oocyte is apt to accept spermatozoa and to develop an embryo. In a follicle, the oocyte is surrounded by mural granulosa cells (GC) and is physically and metabolically coupled with specialized granulosa cumulus cells (CC) which play an important role in oocyte maturation and fertilization. Factors expressing in GC and CC during maturation may reflect the oocyte quality, i.e. its capacity to be fertilized and assure early embryo development. However, the modifications of the content and the amount of peptide/proteins in the oocyte and the surrounding CC during oocyte maturation are mostly unknown and so there is not an accurate way of evaluating/monitoring how different in vitro maturation (IVM) protocols being in use in assisted reproduction technologies, can affect the process. In this context, Intact Cell MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry (ICM-MS) was applied to bovine follicular cells (bovine single oocytes, cumulus cells and granulosa cells) in order to characterize proteomic changes that occur in the follicle during female gamete development. In order to characterize finely endogenous molecular species observed on ICM-MS profiles and to identify markers of interest with their post-translational modifications, we carried out top-down proteomic on the different follicular cells from oocyte, oocyte-cumulus complexes, cumulus cells and granulosa cells protein extracts. Prior to top-down MS using a dual linear ion trap Fourier Transform Mass Spectrometer LTQ Orbitrap Velos, depending on the amount of available biological material, we employed three analytic strategies as a direct infusion, a mono-dimensional liquid chromatography (µLC-1D-MS/MS) and an off-line multi-dimensional liquid chromatography combining four fractionations (based on reverse phase or gel filtration LC) to µLC-MS/MS. Here, we deposited our dataset from µLC-1D-MS/MS (analyses of oocytes, oocyte-cumulus complexes, cumulus cells and granulosa cells protein extracts) and MDLC-MS/MS (analyses of granulosa cells protein extract).
