Effects of social isolation stress on miRNA expression in the bed nucleus of stria terminalis (BNST) in male and female rats

ABSTRACT: Purpose: This study assessed putative sex differences in miRNA expression in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST)—a sexually dimorphic brain region implicated in anxiety—of adult male and female rats that had been exposed throughout adolescence to social isolation (SI) stress. Methods: Male and female Sprague-Dawley rats underwent SI during adolescence or remained grouped housed (GH) till adulthood. Small RNA sequencing was performed on tissue extracted from the anterodorsal BNST. Results: SI compared to GH induced more anxiogenic-like effects in females compared to males and sex-dependent changes in miRNA expression in the BNST. Conclusions: The current study shows that housing conditions (either SI or GH) during adolescence regulates miRNA expression in a sex-specific manner in the sexually dimorphic area of the adBNST

Effect of somatostatin knockout on sexually dimorphic hepatic gene expression

Project description:The liver is one of the most sexually dimorphic organs as measured by gene expression differences. About 80% of the sexually dimorphic genes are known to be regulated by growth hormone (GH). Somatostatin (SST) inhibits the release of GH. We generated a SST-knockout mouse and analyzed the hepatic gene expression changes in both sexes.

Sex Estimation Using Sexually Dimorphic Amelogenin Protein Fragments in Human Enamel

Project description:Sex estimation of human remains from demineralized blocks of tooth enamel by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC- MS/MS) and proteomic analysis of sexually dimorphic amelogenin peptides. The detection of the Y-isoform of amelogenin is used to estimate male sex. The combined signal intensity of the sexually dimorphic peptides from each samples of known sex is used to establish a statistical framework for the estimation of the female sex probability.

Genome-wide maps of histone modifications in male and female mouse liver

Project description:Here we map six chromatin modifications -- H3K4me1, H3K4me3, H3K27ac, H3K36me3, H3K9me3, and H3K27me3 -- genome-wide in male and female mouse liver in order to identify histone modifications that characterize sex-biased genes and sex-biased DNase hypersensitive sites and their regulation by plasma growth hormone (GH) profiles, which are sexually dimorphic. We find distinct mechanisms of regulation in male liver and female liver: sex-dependent K27me3-mediated repression is an important mechanism of repression of female-biased, but not of male-biased, genes, and a sex-dependent K4me1 distribution, suggesting nucleosome repositioning by pioneer factors, is observed at male-biased, but not female-biased, regulatory sites. STAT5-mediated activation is most strongly associated with sex-biased chromatin modifications, while BCL6-mediated repression primarily occurs in association with sex-independent chromatin modifications, both at binding sites and at target genes. These samples are part of a study on chromatin states in male and female mouse and their role in sex-biased liver gene expression (A Sugathan and DJ Waxman (2013) Molec Cell Biol). Examination of six different histone modifications in male and female mouse liver.

Gene expression during head development in a sexually monomorphic stalk-eyed fly

Project description:Stalk-eyed flies (family Diopsidae) are a model system for studying sexual selection due to the elongated and sexually dimorphic eye-stalks found in some species. These flies are of additional interest because their X chromosome is derived largely from an autosomal arm in other flies. To investigate how sex-biased expression arose on the novel X we compared gene expression between males and females using oligonucleotide microarrays and RNA from developing eyestalk tissue in the sexually monomorphic diopsid, Teleopsis quinqueguttata. We use probe sequence divergence to evaluate cross-species ascertainment bias and chromosome assignment to determine if sex linkage influence expression. Microarray analysis revealed sex-biased expression for only 1.9% of 3,748 genes expressed in eye-antennal imaginal discs. Analysis of probe sequences between species indicates that the lack of sex-biased expression is not due to ascertainment bias. These findings indicate that the the majority of sex-biased gene expression observed in developing heads of the dimorphic species, T. dalmanni, is causally related to development of dimorphic head shape. Two-condition experiment, female vs. male RNA using larval eye discs and adult heads for one species (Teleopsis quinqueguttata)

Identification of sexually dimorphically expressed genes in rat tissues

Project description:The sexually dimorphic expression of genes across 26 somatic rat tissues was using Affymetrix RAE-230 genechips. We considered probesets to be sexually dimorphically expressed (SDE) if they were measurably expressed above background in at least one sex, there was at least a two-fold difference in expression (dimorphism) between the sexes, and the differences were statistically significant after correcting for false discovery. 14.5% of expressed probesets were SDE in at least one tissue, with higher expression nearly twice as prevalent in males compared to females. Most were SDE in a single tissue. Surprisingly, nearly half of the probesets that were (SDE) in multiple tissues were oppositely sex biased in different tissues, and most SDE probesets were also expressed without sex bias in other tissues. Two genes were widely SDE: Xist (female-only) and Eif2s3y (male-only). The frequency of SDE probesets varied widely between tissues, and was highest in the duodenum (6.2%), whilst less than 0.05% in over half of the surveyed tissues. The occurrence of SDE probesets was not strongly correlated between tissues. Within individual tissues, however, relational networks of SDE genes were identified. In the liver, networks relating to differential metabolism between the sexes were seen. The estrogen receptor was implicated in differential gene expression in the duodenum. To conclude, sexually dimorphic gene expression is common, but highly tissue-dependent. Sexually dimorphic gene expression may provide insights into mechanisms underlying phenotypic sex differences. 5 male and 5 female animals used. Data provided for all files that meet QC criteria

Direct androgen receptor regulation of sexually dimorphic gene expression in the mammalian kidney

Project description:Mammalian organs exhibit distinct physiology, disease susceptibility and injury responses between the sexes. In the mouse kidney, sexually dimorphic gene activity maps predominantly to proximal tubule (PT) segments. Bulk RNA-seq data analyses demonstrated sex differences were established from 4 and 8 weeks after birth under gonadal control. Hormone injection studies and genetic removal of androgen and estrogen receptors highlighted direct androgen receptor (AR) mediated regulation of gene activity in PT cells as the primary regulatory mechanism. Single-nuclear multiomic analysis identified putative cis regulatory regions and cooperating factors mediating PT responses to AR activity. In the human kidney, a limited set of genes showed conserved sex-linked regulation. Comparative analysis of the mouse liver underscored organ-specific differences in the regulation of sexually dimorphic gene expression. The organ-specific pathways of sexual differentiation identified here raise interesting questions on the evolution, physiological significance, and disease-linkage of sexually dimorphic gene activity.
