Project description:Analysis of LBNF1 rat testes from controls, containing both somatic and all germ cell types and from irradiated rats in which all cells germ cells except type A spermatgogonia are eliminated. Results provide insight into distinguishing germ and somatic cell genes and identification of somatic cell genes that are upregulated after irradiation. Experiment Overall Design: We studied 10 Sample replicates of control rat testes and 5 Sample replicates of irradiated rat testes.

Project description:Analysis of hormone effects on irradiated LBNF1 rat testes, which contain only somatic cells except for a few type A spermatgogonia. Rats were treated for 2 weeks with either sham treatment (group X), hormonal ablation (GnRH antagonist and the androgen receptor antagonist flutamide, group XAF), testosterone supplementation (GnRH antagonist and testosterone, group XAT), and FSH supplementation ((GnRH antagonist, androgen receptor antagonist, and FSH, group XAFF). Results provide insight into identifying genes in the somatic testis cells regulated by testosterone, LH, or FSH.

Project description:Adjudin-induced germ cell loss from adult rat testes
| PRJNA96637 | ENA
Project description:We performed single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-Seq) of testes from bovine fetuses derived from either CRISPR/Cas9 NANOS3 knockout (KO; NANOS3 -/-) or wildtype control (NANOS3 +/+) embryos. The scRNA-Seq analysis showed a complete loss of primordial germ cells (PGCs) and gonocytes in NANOS3 KO fetal testes, while maintaining the development of somatic support cells.

Project description:This is a study to explore the transcriptional changes after Adjudin treatment in adult rat testes at three time points (control, 8 hour and 4 day). Adjudin, [1-(2,4-dichlorobenzyl)-1H-indazole-3-carbohydrazide], is a potential male contraceptive that targets the Sertoli-germ cell interface and causes germ cell depletion from the seminiferous epithelium. Adjudin has been proved to be a useful model to study the mechanisms that regulate junction restructuring in the testis. Experiment Overall Design: Sprague-Dawley rats treated with a single dose of Adjudin at 50 mg/kg b.w. by gavage and terminated after 8 hours (n=2) and 4 days (n=3). Testes from Adjudin-treated rats and untreated (control, n=3) rats were harvested and total RNA were prepared. Standard Affymetrix genechip procedures were followed for the subsequent experiments. Data were analysed in MAS 5.0 and GeneSpring 7.2.

Project description:DICER has a well-characterized role in the processing of microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNA) that are important for post-transcriptional gene regulation. Emerging evidence suggests that DICER also has several non-canonical functions beyond miRNA/siRNA biogenesis, for example in transcriptional gene silencing at the chromatin level, as well as in RNA degradation and maintenance of genomic integrity. We have shown that the function of DICER in germ cells is essential for normal spermatogenesis; male mice lacking DICER in postnatal male germ cells are infertile due to severe defects in haploid differentiation. To better understand the function of DICER in male germ cells, we immunoprecipitated DICER from juvenile mouse testes and performed mass spectrometric analysis to identify DICER-interacting proteins.

Project description:Gene expression profiles of somatic cells of fetal and adult testis. To identify genes developmentally regulated in the somatic cells of the testis, serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) has been used to generate gene expression profiles from these cells in the fetal and adult mouse. To avoid germ cell transcripts, a fetal SAGE library was generated from germ cell-free fetal Wv/Wv mice, and an adult SAGE library was generated from adult testes depleted of germ cells with busulfan. The combined SAGE libraries contained 147570 tags identifying 12976 unique transcripts. Of these transcripts, 3607 were present in only the fetal library and 3941 were present in only the adult library. Most of the abundant differentially expressed tags in the adult testis library were from characterized genes, whereas 3' rapid amplification of complementary ends was required to identify most differentially expressed tags in the fetal library. These fetal tags were mostly associated with uncharacterized UniGene clusters. These data provide a comprehensive and quantitative analysis of gene expression in the somatic cells of the fetal and adult testis (including unknown transcripts) and identify genes differentially expressed in these cells during testis development. These differentially regulated genes are likely to provide insight into mechanisms regulating testis function both during development and in the adult animal. Keywords: other

Project description:Few studies have assessed the patterns of parasite populations of rodents over a longitudinal gradient in Chile. In this work, the gastrointestinal helminthic fauna of invasive rodents in Chile was examined to assess the association between their presence/absence and abundance with latitude, host sex, and host body condition, and to assess the coexistence and correlation of the abundance between parasite species. Rodents were obtained from 20 localities between 33 and 43°S. Helminths were extracted from the gastrointestinal tract and identified morphologically. Overall, 13 helminth taxa were obtained. The most frequently identified parasite species was Heterakis spumosa, and the most abundant was Syphacia muris, while Physaloptera sp. was the most widely distributed. No locality presented with a coexistence that was different from that expected by chance, while the abundance of five helminthic species correlated with the abundance of another in at least one locality, most likely due to co-infection rather than interaction. Host sex was associated with parasite presence or abundance, and female sex-biased parasitism was notably observed in all cases. Body condition and latitude presented either a positive or negative association with the presence or abundance of parasites depending on the species. It is notable that the likely native Physaloptera sp. is widely distributed among invasive rodents. Further, gravid females were found, suggesting spillback of this species to the native fauna. The low frequency and abundance of highly zoonotic hymenolepid species suggest that rodents are of low concern regarding gastrointestinal zoonotic helminths.
