Functional robustness of adult spermatogonial stem cells after induction of hyperactive Hras.

Project description:Accumulating evidence indicates that paternal age correlates with disease risk in children. De novo gain-of-function mutations in the FGF-RAS-MAPK signaling pathway are known to cause a subset of genetic diseases associated with advanced paternal age, such as Apert syndrome, achondroplasia, Noonan syndrome, and Costello syndrome. It has been hypothesized that adult spermatogonial stem cells with pathogenic mutations are clonally expanded over time and propagate the mutations to offspring. However, no model system exists to interrogate mammalian germline stem cell competition in vivo. In this study, we created a lineage tracing system, which enabled undifferentiated spermatogonia with endogenous expression of HrasG12V, a known pathogenic gain-of-function mutation in RAS-MAPK signaling, to compete with their wild-type counterparts in the mouse testis. Over a year of fate analysis, neither HrasG12V-positive germ cells nor sperm exhibited a significant expansion compared to wild-type neighbors. Short-term stem cell capacity as measured by transplantation analysis was also comparable between wild-type and mutant groups. Furthermore, although constitutively active HRAS was detectable in the mutant cell lines, they did not exhibit a proliferative advantage or an enhanced response to agonist-evoked pERK signaling. These in vivo and in vitro results suggest that mouse spermatogonial stem cells are functionally resistant to a heterozygous HrasG12V mutation in the endogenous locus and that mechanisms could exist to prevent such harmful mutations from being expanded and transmitted to the next generation.

Retinoic acid dependent spermatogonial differentiation in mice

Project description:Spermatogonial differentiation is a developmental process that is essential for spermatogenesis, but the molecular and cellular changes that germ cells must undergo to transition from undifferentiated spermatogonia to differentiating spermatogonia remain largely undefined. Retinoic acid (RA) is necessary and sufficient for spermatogonial differentiation. Using the postnatal mouse testis, we examine the transcriptome changes that accompany spermatogonial differentiation. Spermatogenesis was synchronized by administration of potent and selective RA synthesis inhibitor; as a result, testes contained only undifferentiated spermatogonia. Then, the inhibitor was discontinued, and mice were given a single dose of exogenous RA to initiate spermatogonial differentiation. We measured transcriptomes in FACS-enriched germ cells either before RA administration, when the cells correspond to Aal spermatogonia (and a minor contribution of spermatogonial stem cells) or at two points after RA administration, when the cells correspond to A1 or A3 differentiating spermatogonia. The results of this study reveal the full transcriptome changes accompanying spermatogonial differentiation in the mouse.

EGR4-dependent decrease of UTF1 is associated with failure to reserve spermatogonial stem cells in infertile men

Project description:Despite the high incidence of male infertility, about 70% of infertile men do not receive a causative diagnosis. To gain insights into the regulatory mechanisms governing human germ cell function in normal and impaired spermatogenesis (crypto group), we combined single cell RNA sequencing (>30.000 cells), proteome, and histomorphometric analyses of testicular tissues. We found major alterations in the crypto spermatogonial compartment with increased numbers of the most undifferentiated spermatogonia (PIWIL4+ State 0 cells). We also observed a transcriptional switch within the spermatogonial compartment driven by the increased and prolonged expression of the transcription factor EGR4. Intriguingly, EGR4-regulated genes included the chromatin-associated transcriptional repressor UTF1, which was downregulated. Histomorphometrical analyses showed that these transcriptional changes were mirrored at the protein level and accompanied by a change in the chromatin structure of spermatogonia. This resulted in a reduction of Adark spermatogonia - characterized by tightly compacted chromatin and serving as reserve stem cells. These findings suggest that crypto patients are at a disadvantage especially in cases of gonadotoxic damage as they have less cells to help repopulate the testis. We hypothesize that the more relaxed chromatin status of spermatogonia is dependent on decreased UTF1 expression caused by EGR4 activation. These identified regulators of the spermatogonial compartment will be highly interesting targets to uncover genetic causes of male infertility.

A bioenergetic shift is required for spermatogonial differentiation

Project description:A bioenergetic balance between glycolysis and mitochondrial respiration is particularly important for stem cell fate specification. It however remains to be determined whether undifferentiated spermatogonia switch their preference of bioenergy production during differentiation. In this study, we found that ATP generation in spermatogonia was gradually increased upon retinoic acid-induced differentiation. To accommodate this elevated energy demand, retinoic acid signaling concomitantly switched ATP production in spermatogonia from glycolysis to mitochondrial respiration, accompanied by increased levels of reactive oxygen species. In addition, inhibition of glucose conversion to glucose-6-phosphate or pentose phosphate pathway blocked the formation of c-Kit+ differentiating germ cells, suggesting that metabolites produced from glycolysis are required for spermatogonial differentiation. We further demonstrated that the expression levels of several metabolic regulators and enzymes were significantly altered upon retinoic acid-induced differentiation by both RNA-seq analyses and quantitative proteomics. Taken together, our data unveil a critically regulated bioenergetic balance between glycolysis and mitochondrial respiration which is required for spermatogonial proliferation and differentiation.

Conserved Spermatogonial Gene Networks Couple to Glutathione and Pentose Phosphate Metabolism but not Cysteine Biosynthesis

Project description:Here, gene profiles in rat spermatogonial stem cell lines are compared to publicly available mouse, monkey and human spermatogonial gene profiles. Interestingly, rat spermatogonia expressed metabolic control factors Foxa1, Foxa2 and Foxa3. Germline Foxa2 was enriched in Gfra1Hi and Gfra1Low undifferentiated A-single spermatogonia. Foxa2-bound loci in spermatogonial chromatin were over-represented by conserved stemness genes (Dusp6, Gfra1, Etv5, Rest, Nanos2, Foxp1) that intersect bioinformatically with conserved glutathione/pentose phosphate metabolism genes (Tkt, Gss, Gclc, Gclm, Gpx1, Gpx4, Fth), marking elevated spermatogonial GSH:GSSG. Cystine-uptake and intracellular conversion to cysteine typically couple glutathione biosynthesis to pentose phosphate metabolism. Rat spermatogonia, curiously, displayed poor germline stem cell viability in cystine-containing media, and, like primate spermatogonia, exhibited reduced transsulfuration pathway markers. Exogenous cysteine, cysteine-like mercaptans, somatic testis cells and ferroptosis inhibitors counteracted the cysteine starvation-induced spermatogonial death and stimulated spermatogonial growth factor activity in vitro.
