Project description:GDNF-regulated gene expression was studied in cultures of actively self-renewing spermatogonial stem cells established from 6 day old male mice. GDNF is the essential growth factor regulating mouse spermatogonial stem cell self-renewal. Using a serum-free chemically defined culture system that supports mouse spermatogonial stem cell self-renewal for extended periods of time, GDNF-regulated genes were identified using microarray profiling. Keywords: GDNF withdrawal and time-course replacement

Project description:Expression of GDNF-regulated genes was studied in cultures of self-renewing rat spermatogonial stem cells established from 8-10 day old rat pups maintained in a defined serum free medium. GDNF is the primary regulator of spermatogonial stem cell self renewal in the rat. GDNF regulated genes were identified using microarray profiling rat spermatogonial stem cells in the presence and absence of GDNF.

GDNF is the essential growth factor regulating mouse spermatogonial stem cell self-renewal. Using a serum-free chemically defined culture system that supports mouse spermatogonial stem cell self-renewal for extended periods of time, GDNF-regulated genes were identified using microarray profiling. Experiment Overall Design: Established cultures of highly enriched self-renewing spermatogonial stem cells were subjeted to withrawal of GDNF and GFRalpha1 for 18-hr followed by replacement of the growth factors for 2, 4, and 8-hr. Gene expression was studied using microarray profiling prior to withdrawal, after withdrawal and at each time-point of GDNF/GFRalpha1 replacement.

GDNF is the primary regulator of spermatogonial stem cell self renewal in the rat. GDNF regulated genes were identified using microarray profiling rat spermatogonial stem cells in the presence and absence of GDNF. Experiment Overall Design: Highly enriched population of rat spermatogonial stem cells were maintained in defined serum free media which allowed for their continued self-renewal in the presence of GDNF. GDNF was withdrawn from cultures for 18 hours followed by replacement for 2, 4, and 8 hours. Gene expression was studied using microarray profiling prior to GDNF withdrawal, after GDNF withdrawal, and after 2, 4, and 8 hours of GDNF replacement. 3 replicate samples from each timepoint were analyzed.

Project description:Maintenance and self-renewal of the spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) population is the cornerstone of male fertility. In this manuscript we have identified a key role for the nucleosome remodelling protein Chromodomain Helicase DNA binding protein 4 (CHD4) in regulating SSC function. Gene expression analyses revealed that CHD4 expression is largely restricted to spermatogonia in the mouse testis, and is particularly enriched in SSCs. Using spermatogonial transplantation techniques and RNAi mediated knockdown it was established that loss of Chd4 expression significantly impairs SSC regenerative capacity, resulting in a ~50% reduction in colonisation of recipient testes. A single cell RNA-seq comparison depicted reduced expression of ‘self-renewal’ genes such as Gfra1 and Pten following Chd4 knockdown, along with increased expression of signature progenitor genes, Neurog3 and Dazl. Co-immunoprecipitation analyses demonstrated that CHD4 regulates gene expression in spermatogonia not only though its traditional association with the remodelling complex NuRD, but also via interaction with the GDNF-responsive transcription factor SALL4. Cumulatively, the results of this study depict a previously unappreciated fundamental role for CHD4 in controlling fate decisions in the spermatogonial pool.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides and have little or no potential for translation. More and more studies have domenstrated mammalian lncRNAs are intrinsically functional and growing data indicate lncRNAs are determinants of stem cell fate by regulating potency, self-renewal and differentiation. There is no report of lncRNAs in spermatogonial stem cells?SSCs?, and importance of lncRNAs in germline linage stem cell has not been investigated yet. here, we presents a large –scale profiling of all lncRNAs in SSCs as well as those lncRNAs regulated by SSC dependent growth factor GDNF through high throughput sequencing. Spermatogonial stem cells were first suffered from an 18 hr GDNF withdrawal followed by refreshment with GDNF for 8 hrs and RNA samples were collected from normal culture wells (N), GDNF 18hr withdrawal wells (0hr), and GDNF 8 hr refreshed cells (8hr). After all GDNF treatment, cultured germ cell clumps were gently blowed with a 200?l pipette, and followed by Total RNA isolation and sequencing by Illumina HiSeqTM 2000

Project description:We show that Glis3 is expressed in gonocytes, SSCs and SPCs, but not in differentiated spermatogonia or subsequent stages of spermatogenesis nor in Sertoli or Leydig cells. We further demonstrate that Glis3-deficiency causes a severe impairment in spermatogenesis in mice. Although the number of gonocytes was slightly diminished in Glis3KO testis, the number undifferentiated, PLZF+ spermatogonia was dramatically reduced leading to a virtual block in the progression of spermatogenesis. Gene expression profiling showed that the expression of a number of genes associated with self-renewal and differentiation of spermatogonial cells was significantly decreased in 1-week-old Glis3KO2 testis. These included a set of GDNF-dependent genes, such as Etv5, Bcl6b, Lhx1, Brachyury, Id4, and Pou3f1, and GDNF-independent genes, such as FoxO1, Oct4, and Zbtb16. Impairment of the nuclear localization of FoxO1 may be in part responsible for the reduced expression of Ret, Lhx1, and Sall4 in Glis3KO2 testis. Our study identifies Glis3 as a novel and critical regulator of early stages of spermatogenesis. Thy1+ cells were isolated from 3 WT and 3 Glis3KO2 testis at postnatal day 4, and total RNAs were purified from them. Then the samples were applied to Agilent mouse genome chip.
