Project description:This repository contains single-cell gene expression profiling from mouse splenocytes of the Four Core Genotypes cross. By crossing mice with both a deletion of the sex-determining factor Sry on the Y-chromosome and a transgenic insertion of Sry on Chromosome 3 , four combinations of gonadal (testis or ovaries) and chromosomal (XX or XY) are generated, namely XYSry-Chr3Sry+ (gonadal and chromosomal males), XYSry- (gonadal females, chromosomal males), XX (gonadal and chromosomal females), XXChr3Sry+ (gonadal males, chromosomal females). The transgenes were on a C57BL6 genetic background which is crossed with a CAST/EiJ female to allow for the distinction of the parental haplotypes. From all four genotypes, splenocytes are isolated and subjected to 10x Genomics single-cell RNA-Sequencing.

Project description:The purpose of this experiment was to determine the expression traits in Liver tissue from the Four Core Genotype treated group. Keywords: Sry transgene Four Core Genotype Mouse liver Tissue Liver tissue from the "Four Core Genotype" treated group consists of 20 female and male C57BL/6J mice fed a chow diet containing 4% fat (Ralston-Purina Co., St. Louis, MO) until 8 weeks of age and then were gonadectomized at 8 weeks of life. In mice of the "four core genotypes" (FCG), the Y chromosome is deleted for the testis-determining gene Sry, producing the Y- chromosome. The Sry transgene is inserted onto an autosome, so that testis determination is independent of the complement of sex chromosomes. XY-Sry gonadal males are bred with XX gonadal females, producing progeny with four different genotypes: two types of gonadal males (XX.Sry and XY-Sry) and two types of gonadal females (XX and XY-). At 12 weeks mice were sacrificed, after a 12-hour fast, Liver tissue were dissected and flash frozen in LN2 and stored at -80°C. All sample were compared to a common pool created from equal portions of RNA from each of the samples.

Project description:Sex-reversed ‘XYSry-’ female mice that lack Sry due to the 11 kb deletion Srydl1Rlb have very limited fertility, partly due to the effects of posessing only a single X chromosome. However, the fertility deficit is even worse in sex-reversed XY females than in XO females, implicating Y-linked genes in the further loss of fertility. Transgenic addition of Yp-linked genes to XO females and also to normal XX females implicated Zfy2 (but not the related Zfy1) as the cause of this effect. This study examines the transcriptional effects of Zfy2 and Zfy1 in GV oocytes from normal XX females.

Project description:A critical transcription factor required for mammalian male sex determination is SRY (sex determining region on the Y chromosome). The expression of SRY in precursor Sertoli cells is one of the initial events in testis development. The current study was designed to determine the impact of environmentally induced epigenetic transgenerational inheritance on SRY during gonadal sex determination in the male. The agricultural fungicide vinclozolin and vehicle control (DMSO) exposed gestating females (F0 generation) during gonadal sex determination promoted the transgenerational inheritance of differential DNA methylation in sperm of the F3 generation (great grand-offspring). The fetal gonads in F3 generation males were used to identify potential alterations in SRY binding sites in the developing Sertoli cells. Chromatin immunoprecipitation with an SRY antibody followed by genome-wide promoter tiling array (ChIP-Chip) was used to identify alterations in SRY binding. A total of 81 adjacent oligonucleotide sites and 173 single oligo SRY binding sites were identified to be altered transgenerationally in the Sertoli cell vinclozolin lineage F3 generation males. Observations demonstrate the majority of the previously identified normal SRY binding sites were not altered and the altered SRY binding sites were novel and new additional sites. The chromosomal locations, gene associations and potentially modified cellular pathways were investigated. In summary, environmentally induces epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of germline epimutations appears to alter the cellular differentiation and development of the precursor Sertoli cell SRY binding during gonadal sex determination that influence the developmental origins of adult onset testis disease.

Project description:Sry is sufficient to induce testis formation and subsequent male development of internal and external genitalia in chromosomally female mice and humans. In XX sex-reversed males such as XX/Sry-transgenic (XX/Sry) mice, however, testicular germ cells always disappear soon after birth due to germ cell autonomous defects. Therefore, it remains unclear whether or not Sry alone is sufficient to induce a fully functional testicular soma capable of supporting complete spermatogenesis in the XX body. Here we demonstrated that the testicular somatic environment of XX/Sry males is defective in the later phases of spermatogenesis. Spermatogonial transplantation analyses using XX/Sry male mice revealed that donor XY spermatogonia are capable of proliferating, entering meiosis and differentiating into the round spermatid stage. XY donor-derived round spermatids, however, were frequently detached from the XX/Sry seminiferous epithelia and underwent cell death, thereby preventing further progress beyond the elongated spermatid stage. In contrast, immature XY seminiferous tubule segments transplanted under XX/Sry testis capsules clearly displayed proper differentiation into elongated spermatids in the transplanted XY donor tubules. Microarray analysis of seminiferous tubules isolated from XX/Sry testes confirmed missing expression of several Y-linked genes and alterations in the expression profile of genes associated with spermatogenesis. Therefore, our findings indicate dysfunction of the somatic tubule components, probably Sertoli cells, of XX/Sry testes, supporting our hypothesis that Sry alone is insufficient to induce a fully functional Sertoli cell in XX mice.

Experiment Overall Design: Whole testes and seminiferous tubules of XX/Sry and W/Wv males were used for microarray expression analysis using the Affymetrix GeneChip system (Affymetrix, CA). In order to isolate the seminiferous tubules, the tunica was carefully removed from the testes which were then incubated in the medium with 5 mg/ml collagnease at 37oC for 40 min. The remaining seminiferous tubules were washed several times with PBS using a 70-ºm cell strainer to remove interstitial cells. After total RNA was extracted using a RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen, Germantown, MD), double-stranded cDNA and biotin-labeled cRNA were synthesized using One-Cycle cDNA Synthesis and IVT Labeling kits (Affymetrix, CA), respectively. Twenty micrograms of fragmented biotin-labeled cRNA was hybridized to the Affymetrix Mouse Expression Array MOE 430A for 16 hr at 45oC. The chips were washed, stained, and then scanned with the GeneArray Scanner (Hewlett Packard, CA) in accordance with the manufacturer's standard protocols. Finally, the microarray data were analyzed using Microarray Suite ver. 5.0 (Affymetrix). Differential expression was defined as a difference of 2-fold or more in both whole testis and seminiferous tubule samples between two recipient males. Mouse 430A Affymetrix Genome Array IDs were used to query the NetAffx data mining tool for gene annotations.

In summary, environmentally induces epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of germline epimutations appears to alter the cellular differentiation and development of the precursor Sertoli cell SRY binding during gonadal sex determination that influence the developmental origins of adult onset testis disease. The experimental design involved the intraperitoneal exposure of gestating female rats to vinclozolin or a vehicle control (dimethyl sulfoxide, DMSO) transiently from embryonic days E8-E14. Sister littermates were divided into control and vinclozolin treatment groups and mated to similar males to minimize the genetic variation between the control and vinclozolin lineages. Sufficient females were used so no inbreeding (sibling or cousin) occurred in any generation. The F1 generation was bred within the lineage to generate the F2 generation and these F2 generation bred to generate the F3 generation. The only exposure was the F0 generation female. The F3 generation control and vinclozolin lineage embryonic day 13 (E13) embryos were collected and the gonads micro-dissected and then sexed with an SRY PCR protocol. The male gonads were pooled from a minimum of three different litters and the pools used to collect DNA. Three different experiments were performed to collect 3 control and vinclozolin E13 F3 generation testis pools, each with different animals (n=25 gonads/pool). The chromatin DNA (not denatured) from each pool was fragmented and used in an SRY chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) procedure for each pool separately. The control and vinclozolin SRY ChIP DNA were paired for a competitive hybridization on a genome-wide promoter tiling array (ChIP-Chip) assay. The hybridization data obtained was used to identify the SRY binding sites that were different in the F3 generation vinclozolin versus control lineage in E13 testis.
