Molecular Elucidation of in vitro spermatogenesis in the testis organ culture


ABSTRACT: Cultivation of neonatal mouse testis tissue can induce spermatogenesis and produce fertile sperms. However, this in vitro spermatogenesis by the current organ culture method comes short in fully mimicking the in vivo counterpart, partly due to a lack of knowledge about the underlying molecular phenotypes. In this study, we investigated transcriptome of cultured testis tissues using microarray method. Principle component analysis of the transcriptome data revealed delay and/or arrest of spermatogenesis and immediate radical immune reactions in the cultured testis tissues. The delay/arrest of spermatogenesis occurred before and during early meiotic phase, resulting in inefficient progression of meiosis. The immune reaction, on the other hand, was drastic and overwhelming, in which TLR4-NF-kB signaling was speculated to be involved. Notably, treatment with TAK242, an inhibitor of TLR4-NF-kB signaling pathway, ameliorated the macrophage activation which otherwise would exacerbate the inflammation. The present study revealed for the first time the immense immune reaction in the cultured tissue by transcriptomic analysis, which could be a cause of the inefficiency of in vitro spermatogenesis.
