Reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) data from cattle monocytes, fibroblasts and sperm cells

ABSTRACT: Sperm cells are characterized by a unique epigenome, and an incorrect establishment of DNA methylation patterns during the differentiation of male germ cells into spermatozoa has been associated with male infertility in several species. While bull semen is widely used in artificial insemination, the literature describing DNA methylation in bovine sperm is still scarce. The purpose of this study is to compare the methylomes of sperm and somatic cell types in cattle using the RRBS technology.

Bull sperm SWATH-MS-based proteomics reveals link between high fertility and energy production, motility structures, and sperm-oocyte interaction. Quantitation

Project description:Prediction of male or semen fertility potential remains a persistent challenge that has yet to be fully resolved. This work analyzed several in vitro parameters and proteome of spermatozoa in bulls cataloged as high (HF; n=5) and low field (LF; n=5) fertility after more than a thousand artificial inseminations. Sperm motility was evaluated by Computer-Assisted Sperm Analysis. Sperm viability, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and reactive oxygen species (mROS) of spermatozoa were assessed by flow cytometry. Proteome was evaluated by SWATH-MS procedure. Spermatozoa of HF bulls showed significantly higher total motility than the LF group (41.4% vs. 29.7%). Rates of healthy sperm (live, high MMP, and low mROS) for HF and LF bull groups were 49% and 43%, respectively (p > 0.05). Spermatozoa of HF bulls showed higher presence of differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) related to both energy production (COX7C), mainly OXPHOS pathway, and to the development of structures linked with the motility process (TPPP2, SSMEM1 and SPAG16). Furthermore, we observed that EQTN, together with other DAPs related to the interaction with the oocyte, were overrepresented in HF bull spermatozoa. The biological processes related to protein processing, catabolism, and protein folding were found to be overrepresented in LF bull sperm in which the HSP90AA1 chaperone was identified as the most DAP

Expression data from pig oviduct in response to X or Y chromosome bearing spermatozoa

Project description:The objective of the present study is to investigate if females have the ability to recognise X or Y chromosome bearing spermatozoa and present a different response to different spermatozoa. In order to investigate if females have the ability to recognise X or Y chromosome bearing spermatozoa and present a different response to different spermatozoa. Samples of semen were sorted for chromosomal sex by M-oM-,M-^Bow cytometric-sorting. Using laparoscopic insemination one oviduct was inseminated with X spermatozoa and the contralateral oviduct was inseminated with Y spermatozoa.This allowed us to obtain samples from the oviduct in contact with X sperm and Y sperm in the the contrlateral oviduct from the same sow. Oviduct pig samples were collected for RNA isolation and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Four biological replicates were performed (n= 4 sows) and a total of 8 arrays were used for microarrays study (4 arrays for oviduct samples in contact with X spermatozoa and 4 arrays for oviduct samples in contact with Y spermatozoa.

The role of β-defensin 103 (DEFB103) copy number variation in bull fertility

Project description:Pregnancy rates for elite bulls used in artificial insemination (AI) can vary significantly and therefore the identification of molecular markers for bull fertility and targets to improve bull selection is important. β-defensins are peptides with diverse regulatory roles in sperm function across multiple species. To explore the functional impact of DEFB103 CNV on the uterine response in vivo, 18 heifers were inseminated with sperm from bulls categorized by low, intermediate, and high CN levels. Transcriptomic analysis of uterine tissue collected 12 hours after insemination revealed significant differential expression of 58 genes (FDR<0.1) related to sperm migration, immune signaling, and chemotaxis. These findings highlight the significant role of DEFB103 CN in both sperm function and the uterine response to bull sperm, suggesting its potential influence on pregnancy outcomes in cattle.

Proteomic characterization and comparison of spermatozoa proteomes between ram (Ovis. aries) and buck (Capra. hircus) using a data-independent acquisition-mass spectrometry (DIA-MS)

Project description:Artificial insemination in small ruminants is most commonly performed using fresh semen due to the low fertility rates typically achieved with frozen spermatozoa. Usually, when developing and applying assisted reproductive technologies, sheep and goats are often lumped together as one specie. In order to optimize sperm cryopreservation protocols in sheep and goat, differences in sperm proteomics between ram and buck are necessary to detect, which may contribute to differences in sperm function and fertility.

Identification of protein candidates in spermatozoa of water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) bulls helps in predicting their fertility status

Project description:Abstract The water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) is an indispensable part of the Indian dairy sector and in several instances, the farmers incur economic losses due to failed pregnancy after artificial insemination (AI). One of the key factors for the failure of conception is the use of semen from the bulls of low fertilizing potential and hence, it becomes important to predict the fertility status before performing AI. In this study, the global proteomic profile of high fertile (HF) and low fertile (LF) buffalo bull spermatozoa was established using a high-throughput LC-MS/MS technique. A total of 1385 proteins (≥ 1 high-quality PSM/s, ≥ 1 unique peptides, P < 0.05, FDR < 0.01) were identified out of which, 1002 were common between both the HF and LF groups while 288 and 95 proteins were unique to HF and LF groups respectively. We observed 211 and 342 significantly upregulated (log Fc ≥2) and downregulated in HF (log Fc ≤0.5) spermatozoa (p <0.05). Gene ontology analysis revealed that the fertility associated upregulated proteins were involved in spermatogenesis, sperm motility, acrosome integrity, zona pellucida binding and other associated sperm functions. Besides this, the downregulated proteins were involved in glycolysis, fatty acid degradation and inflammation. Furthermore, fertility related differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) on sperm viz., AKAP3, Sp17 and DLD were validated through Western blotting and immunocytochemistry which was in coherence with the LC-MS/MS data. The DAPs identified in this study may be used as potential protein candidates for predicting fertility in buffaloes. Our findings provide an opportunity in mitigating the economic losses that farmers incur due to male infertility.

Mutations in AK9 impair male fertility by altering sperm motility in mice and cattle.

Project description:Despite passing routine laboratory tests for semen quality, bulls used in artificial insemination (AI) can exhibit a significant variation in fertility. During fertility analysis, a subfertile bull with a low pregnancy rate of 10% was identified. To fully characterize the phenotype, a range of in vitro, in vivo and molecular assays were carried out. Additionally, knockout mice were generated to investigate the function of the identified mutated gene. Sperm from the subfertile bull exhibited reduced motility and severely reduced caffeine-induced hyperactivation compared to control bulls of proven fertility. Ability to penetrate the zona pellucida, cleavage rate, cleavage kinetics, and blastocyst yield after IVF or AI were significantly lower than in control bulls. Whole-genome sequencing and RNA sequencing of testis revealed a critical mutation in AK9 that affect splicing, shaping the majority of AK9 transcripts that leads to a premature termination codon and a severely truncated protein. Transgenic mice deficient in AK9 were generated, resulting in the production of immotile sperm that were unable to fertilize the oocyte. These sperm exhibited abnormalities, including a low ATP concentration. RNA-seq analysis of testis revealed differential gene expression of components of the axoneme and sperm flagella, as well as steroid metabolic processes. Sperm ultrastructural analysis showed a higher percentage of sperm with abnormal flagella. The infertility produced by AK9 mutant bull and in AK9 deficient mice indicates the essential metabolic role of AK9 in sperm motility and/or hyperactivation, which in turn affects sperm binding and penetration of the zona pellucida.

Identification of a damaging variant rs35033974 associated with idiopathic male infertility through degradation of TEX101 protein and its transient interactome

Project description:Human TEX101 is a testis-specific cell membrane protein expressed exclusively in male germ cells and a validated biomarker of male infertility. TEX101 was suggested to function as a cell surface chaperone of numerous proteins involved in sperm migration and sperm-egg interaction. However, the precise functional roles of human TEX101 in spermatogenesis and fertilization are unknown. Here, we show that a common homozygous variant rs35033974 of TEX101 (G99V) with ~1% frequency in the general population may be associated with idiopathic male infertility. Spermatozoa from patients with homozygous rs35033974 exhibited near-complete degradation of variant G99V TEX101 protein and concomitant degradation of its interactome, as revealed by proteomic measurements. Substantially reduced levels of numerous testis-specific membrane proteins involved in sperm migration and sperm-oocyte fusion (including LY6K, IZUMO3 and ADAM29) were confirmed in spermatozoa of men with homozygous G99V variant. These men were previously diagnosed with idiopathic male infertility or oligospermia and failed the treatment by intrauterine insemination. Collectively, these data may facilitate diagnostics of idiopathic male infertility, provides a rational for selection of male infertility treatments and validate TEX101 and its interactome as targets to develop non-hormonal male contraceptives.

The Epigenome of Spermatozoa is Affected in Obesity and Dynamically Changes after Bariatric Surgery [Lean/Obese MNase]

Project description:Obesity is a heritable disorder, with children of obese fathers at higher risk of developing obesity. Â Environmental factors epigenetically influence somatic tissues, but the contribution of these factors to the establishment of epigenetic patterns in human gametes is unknown. Here, we hypothesized that weight loss remodels the epigenetic signature of spermatozoa in human obesity. Comprehensive profiling of the epigenome of sperm from lean and obese men showed similar histone positioning, but small non-coding RNA expression and DNA methylation patterns were markedly different. In a separate cohort of morbidly obese men, surgery-induced weight loss was associated with a dramatic remodeling of sperm DNA methylation, notably at genetic locations implicated in the central control of appetite. Our data provide evidence that the epigenome of human spermatozoa dynamically changes under environmental pressure, and offers Â insight into how obesity may propagate metabolic dysfunction to the next generation. Examination of the DNA methylation status, histone retention and sncRNA expression of the semen of 13 lean and 10 obese individuals; as well as the DNA methylation status of the semen of 6 obese men undergoing Roux-en-Y GBP surgery, at three time points: approximately 1 week before, 1 week after and 1 year after the surgery.
