Short-term in vitro culture of rat fetal testes with all-trans retinoic acid

ABSTRACT: Analysis of gene expression and alternate splicing effects of retinoic acid treatment on gestational day 15 rat fetal testes in whole testis culture Retinoic acid exposure in cultured fetal testis has previously been demonstrated to have significant effects on the histology of the fetal testis in multiple species, as well as to alter the meiotic states of germ cells. However, previous experiments have not analyzed the mechanisms by which retinoic acid exposure leads to altered tubulogenesis and loss of seminiferous cord structure. This experiment demonstrated that retinoic acid exposure activated signaling pathways that promote the ovary development program and oppose normal testis development in mid-gestational rat fetal testes.

Fetal Rat Testis mRNA Expression after 50 mg/kg Dibutyl Phthalate Exposure

Project description:High dose level dibutyl phthalate (DBP) exposure of fetal rat testes in vivo inhibits testosterone production (i.e. endocrine disruption). Here, fetal testis mRNA levels were profiled following exposure to a DBP dose level that did not significantly reduce testosterone levels. The goal was to identify the constellation of gene expression changes that do not correlate with endocrine disruption. Fischer 344 rats were exposed via oral gavage of the dam to vehicle (corn oil) or 50 mg/kg (body weight) DBP daily from gestational day (GD) 12 to 20. The day after mating was defined as gestational day 0. Six hours after the final exposure on GD20, fetal testes were dissected and mRNA levels quantified using Affymetrix Rat Expression 230 2.0 microarrays.

Transcriptomic effects of mono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate and all-trans retinoic acid in the cultured mouse fetal testes

Project description:We report the results of an RNA-seq analysis conducted as part of an experiment investigating the effects of the phthalate, mono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP), and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) on cultured fetal mouse testes. The goal of the study was to determine whether fetal testis toxicity of MEHP is partially driven by disruption of retinoic acid signaling.

RNA-seq analysis of rat fetal testis following in utero dipentyl phthalate exposure

Project description:RNA-seq analysis was conducted as part of an experiment investigating the effects of the phthalate, dipentyl phthalate (DPeP), on the rat fetal testis. The goal of the study was to test what gene expression responses occurred in a dose-dependent fashion, and which were most sensitive, following exposure to 1, 11, 100, or 300 mg/kg/d DPeP from gestational day (GD) 17-21.

Transcription profiling of rat testes following exposure to mono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate

Project description:In rodent models, phthalate exposure alters both the fetal and pubertal testis, but the resulting histopathological changes are divergent. This suggests that the underlying molecular and cellular phthalate mechanism may be age-dependent. Using genome-wide expression profiling of acutely-exposed rats, the initial molecular response in pubertal rat testis following in vivo phthalate exposure was determined. For this study, postnatal day 28 rats were exposed to a single dose of 1 g/kg mono-(2-ethyl)hexyl phthalate (MEHP) and assayed at 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 hrs thereafter using Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 Arrays. Experiment Overall Design: At each timepoint, testes from 3 treated and 3 control (corn oil gavage) were analzyed.

3'DGE-seq analysis of fetal rat testis reveals limited transcriptional changes after exposure to azole fungicides triticonazole and flusilazole despite adverse in vivo effects

Project description:Purpose: Azoles are widely used antifungal agents. However, many azoles have been shown to have endocrine disrupting properties including triticonazole and flusilazole that we previously showed have adverse effects in vivo. The purpose of this study was to elaborate on how flusilazole and triticonazole can disrupt male reproductive development by different mechanisms, and to investigate whether feminization effects such as short AGD in males can also be detected at the transcript level in fetal testes. Methods: Testicular mRNA profiles of fetal rats at gestational day 17 or 21 exposed to vehicle, flusilazole, and triticonazole during gestation (from day 7-21) were generated by 3'digital gene expression sequencing, qRT–PCR validation was performed using TaqMan assays and testis histology was assesed by H&E staining and bright field microscopy, protein expression was assesed by immunofluorescence staining and fluorescence microcopy. Results: We identified 17,350 transcripts in the fetal rat testes. 9 transcripts showed differential expression between control and flusilazole or triticonazole exposed rats, with a fold change ≥1.5 and p value <0.05. Altered expression of 2 genes was confirmed with qRT–PCR. Testis histology was normal. Conclusions: Sequencing revealed few transcriptional changes in the fetal rat testes exposed to flusilazole or triticonazole. This suggests that flusilazole may be directly targeting steroidogenic enzyme activity in the testis at the protein level, whereas triticonazole may primarily disturbe androgen signaling in androgen-sensitive tissues. Expression of Calb2 and Gsta2 was altered by flusilazole but not triticonazole and may pinpoint novel pathways of disrupted testicular steroid synthesis. Our findings have wider implication for how we integrate omics data in chemical testing frameworks, including selection of non-animal test methods and building of Adverse Outcome Pathways for regulatory purposes.

Alteration of the expression and 17, 20 lyase activity of cytochrome P450 17-hydroxylase/17, 20 lyase and of the expression of other Leydig cells genes in the rat fetal testis directly exposed to Mono-ethyl hexyl phthalate in culture.

Project description:This study aimed to investigate the direct mechanism(s) of action ofMono-(Ethyl-Hexyl) phthalate (MEHP) on the rat fetal testis with particular emphasis to Leydig cell steroidogenesis, by means of an in vitro system based on culture for 3 days of fetal testes from 14.5 days post-coïtum old rats. We first confirmed that an exposure to MEHP led to a dose-dependent decrease of testosterone and demonstrated that dihydrotestosterone (DHT) production was also inhibited. We then demonstrated that in 10µM MEHP-exposed testis basal 17alpha-hydroxy-progesterone (17OHP) production was increased (+40%) while androstenedione levels decreased (-55%). Furthermore, the addition of the latter steroid but none of the other precursors rescued testosterone thus establishing further that MEHP specifically blocked steroidogenesis at the level of the 17,20 lyase activity of the P450c17 enzyme (CYP17), which converts 17OHP to androstenedione. Furthermore and accordingly, both levels of testicular CYP17 protein (western blot) and cyp17a1 gene (qPCR, microarrays) were found to decrease under MEHP exposure. The microarray analysis also showed that among the few other testicular genes cyp17a1 whose expression was inhibited by MEHP were the genes encoding for the Leydig cell insulin-like peptid 3 (INSL3), involved in the control of testicular descent, and for inhibin A (INHA), that regulates follicular-stimulating hormone secretion.Under in vitro conditions where MEHP is not metabolized and remains at low intratesticular concentration, our findings show in particular that this phthalate directly inhibits several important Leydig cell factors involved in testis development and function. Transcription profiling of rat fetal testes explants, vehicle or monoethylhexylphthalate (MEHP)-treated (1uM, 10uM) 3 condition experiment, 1-3 biological replicates per treatment. 2 technical replicates per sample.

Transcription profiling of rat fetal gubernaculum and testis of wildtype (LE/wt) and cryptorchid (LE/orl) animals

Project description:The Long Evans/orl (LE/orl) rat is an animal model of inherited undescended testis (UDT). To explore genetic mechanisms of UDT, we studied differential gene expression in LE/orl and LE wild type (LE/wt) fetal gubernaculum and testis. Analyses of differentially expressed probe sets linked below as supplementary files:; Analysis_methods.txt [A description of the analysis]; gub.txt [Genes differentially expressed in between wt and orl gubernacula]; testes.txt [Genes differentially expressed between wt and orl testes]; wt.txt [Genes differentially expressed in wt gubernacular development] Experiment Overall Design: Fetuses were harvested from timed matings of LE/wt and LE/orl rats at gestational day (GD) 17, 18, 19, and 20. Single gubernaculum and testis were removed from male fetuses and total RNA was isolated from each organ. Left organs were used, except for GD 20 fetuses where both right and left gubernacula were included. For female fetuses, the right and left gubernacula from a single fetus were pooled before RNA isolation. A total of 54 samples were hybridized to GeneChips; 34 gubernacular samples and 20 testes samples. There were 13 sample groups, each included biological replicate arrays. The sample groups were (1) female LE/wt GD18 gubernacula n=4, (2) male LE/wt GD18 left gubernacula n=4, (3) male LE/wt GD19 left gubernacula n=4, (4) male LE/wt GD20 left gubernacula n=4, (5) male LE/wt GD20 right gubernacula n=3, (6) male LE/orl GD18 left gubernacula n=4, (7) male LE/orl GD19 left gubernacula n=4, (8) male LE/orl GD20 left gubernacula n=4, (9) male LE/orl GD20 right gubernacula n=3, (10) male LE/wt GD17 left testes n=5, (11) male LE/wt GD19 left testes n=5, (12) male LE/orl GD17 left testes n=5, and (13) male LE/orl GD19 left testes n=5.
