RNA-sequence on testes of wild type C57BL/6J, ARLmon/Y and AR-/Y mice

ABSTRACT: We generated a mouse model (ARLmon/Y) with disrupted dimerization of the ligand-binding domain 25 (LBD) of the androgen receptor (AR). These mice exhibit an external female phenotype with undescended testes. Histological analysis of the testes of ARLmon/Y mice revealed some residual spermatogenesis. Hormone measurements in serum of the ARLmon/Y mice showed significantly high levels of androgens. To further explore the ARLmon/Y testicular phenotype, we performed RNA-sequencing on while testis of five mice per genotype.

RNA-sequence on kidneys of wild type C57BL/6J and ARLmon/Y mice that underwent orchidectomy and testosterone (or vehicle) replacement for 4 days

Project description:We generated a mouse model (ARLmon/Y) with disrupted dimerization of the ligand-binding domain 25 (LBD) of the androgen receptor (AR). These mice exhibit an external female phenotype with undescended testes. Histological analysis of the testes of ARLmon/Y mice revealed some residual spermatogenesis. Hormone measurements in serum of the ARLmon/Y mice showed significantly high levels of androgens. To study if there is any remaining AR activity, we orchidectomized WT and ARLmon/Y mice and gave them supraphysiological testosterone replacement for 4 days. RNA-seq was performed on kindeys.

AR dimerization surface mutants and wt in PC3 cells

Project description:Mutations of the androgen receptor (AR) associated with prostate cancer and androgen insensitivity syndrome may profoundly influence its structure, protein interaction network and binding to chromatin, resulting in altered transcription signatures and drug responses. Current structural information fails to explain the effect of pathological mutations on AR structure-function relationship. Here we have thoroughly studied the effects of selected mutations that span the complete dimer interface of AR ligand-binding domain (AR-LBD) using X-ray crystallography in combination with in vitro, in silico, and cell-based assays. We show that these variants alter AR-dependent transcription and responses to anti-androgens by inducing a previously undescribed allosteric switch in the AR-LBD that increases exposure of residue Arg761 and ultimately leads to its enhanced methylation. We also corroborate the relevance of residues Arg761 and Tyr764 for AR dimerization and function. Together, our results reveal allosteric coupling of AR dimerization and post-translational modifications as a disease mechanism with implications for precision medicine.

Whole transcriptome RNAseq analysis of somatic cells in Inhba fetal testes

Project description:We performed RNA-seq on testicular somatic cells from fetal activin A-deficient mice (Inhba KO) and wildtype littermates at embryonic ages E13.5 and E15.5. Activin A deficiency predominantly affects the Sertoli cell transcriptome. New candidate targets include Minar1, Sel1l3, Vnn1, Sfrp4, Masp1, Nell1, Tthy1 and Prss12. Importantly, the testosterone (T) biosynthetic enzymes present in fetal Sertoli cells, Hsd17b1 and Hsd17b3, were identified as activin-responsive. Activin-deficient testes contained elevated androstenedione (A4), displayed an Inhba gene dose-dependent A4/T ratio, and contained 11-keto androgens.

RNA-seq analysis of miR-2b-1 testes in Drosophila melanogaster

Project description:We have identified that miR-2b-1 of D. melanogaster causes testicular bulging (a tumour like phenotype) and hence have performed a transcriptomic analysis on these bulged testes. Adult flies overexpressing miR-2b-1 were used to perform transcriptomic analysis to identify the differentially expressed genes.

Somatic mutation and clonal evolution in the human testes

Project description:In this study we aim to characterise the landscape of Pathogenic variants and clonal dynamics in normal and cancerous testes and their role in cancer predisposition. The study combines targeted sequencing and whole-genome sequencing of microbiopsies from testes. The range of patients studied will include healthy individuals, and patients with testicular cancer.

Dmrt1 (doublesex and mab-3 related transcription factor 1) conditional knockout expression analysis of P28 testes

Project description:Dmrt1 (doublesex and mab-3 related transcription factor 1) is a conserved transcriptional regulator of male differentiation required for testicular development in vertebrates. This study examines the result of conditional removal of Dmrt1 from Sertoli cells in P28 testis tissue. Testes from P28 Dmrt1 flox/flox mice were compared to testes from P28 Dmrt1 flox/flox mice with the Sertoli cell-specific Sf1 (Nr5a1; MGI:1346833) or Dhh (MGI:94891) promoters driving Cre expression.

Single-cell RNA-sequencing overviews global inflammatory response in in vitro organ cultured testes

Project description:Background: Production of functional sperms from spermatogonial stem cells in vitro is important for understanding of biological mechanisms underlying physiological spermatogenesis and for treatment of male infertility. However, comparing with the in vivo testes, in vitro spermatogenesis is severely lower efficiency. Here we describe abnormalities occurring in early stage of in vitro spermatogenesis at single cell resolution. Results: While spermatogenesis was similarly progressed between in vivo and in vitro-cultured testes, noticeable acute inflammatory response occurred right after in vitro culture of neonatal testes not only in immune cells but also non-immune testicular somatic cells. Inhibitor treatment revealed NLRP3 inflammasome signaling is key to the inflammation occurring in in vitro cultured testes We also found accumulation of damaged/dead germ cells in in vitro cultured testes, which may be due to dysfunction of sertoli cell phagocytosis. Conclusion: Our data revealed tissue-wide sterile inflammation occurring in in vitro cultured testes, in which DAMPs - NLRP3 inflammasome axis may key element. Thus, these abnormal testicular microenvironments may be a cause of low spermatogenesis efficiency of in vitro spermatogenesis.

Response to 10 nM dexamethasone in MEF cells expressing GR dimer deficient mutant receptors

Project description:The glucocorticoid (GC) receptor (GR) is essential in development and inflammation. Healthy GRdim/dim mice with reduced dimerization propensity due to a point mutation (A465T) at the dimer interface of the GR DNA binding domain (DBD) (here GRD/D) have helped to define GR monomer and dimer functions of GR. Since GRD/D retains residual dimerization capacity, we generated the dimer-nullifying double mutant GRD+L/D+L mice, featuring an additional mutation (I634A) in the ligand binding domain (LBD) of GR. These mice are perinatally lethal, as are GRL/L mice, displaying improper lung and skin formation. We used embryonic fibroblasts, high and low doses of dexamethasone (Dex), nuclear translocation, RNAseq, dimerization assays and ligand binding assays (and Kd values), we suggest that the lethal phenotype is due to insufficient ligand binding. The data suggest cross talk between GR dimerization potential and ligand affinity. We conclude that a mutation as subtle as this I634A, at a position not directly involved in ligand interactions senso stricto, can thus still influence ligand binding and have a lethal outcome.
