Lycopene supplementation in serum-free maturation medium improves bovine in vitro embryo development, quality, and modulates embryonic transcriptomic profile

ABSTRACT: Bovine embryos are typically cultured at reduced oxygen tension to lower the impact of oxidative stress on embryo development. However, oocyte in vitro maturation (IVM) is performed at atmospheric oxygen tension since low oxygen during maturation has a negative impact on oocyte developmental competence. Lycopene, a carotenoid, acts as a powerful antioxidant and may protect the oocyte against oxidative stress during maturation at atmospheric oxygen conditions. Here, we assessed the effect of adding 0.2 μM lycopene (antioxidant), 5 μM menadione (pro-oxidant), and their combination on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in mature oocytes and subsequent blastocyst development, quality, and transcriptome in a bovine in vitro model. ROS fluorescent intensity in mature oocytes was significantly lower in the lycopene group, and resulting embryos showed a significantly higher blastocyst rate on day 8 and lower apoptotic cell ratio than all other groups. Transcriptomic analysis disclosed a total of 296 differentially expressed genes (Benjamin-Hochberg adjusted P < 0.05 and ≥ 1 log2 fold change) between lycopene and control groups with pathways associated with cellular function, metabolism, DNA repair, and anti-apoptosis upregulated in lycopene. Lycopene supplementation in serum-free maturation medium neutralizes excess ROS during maturation, enhances blastocyst development and quality, and modulates the transcriptomic landscape.

Hypoxia induces hypersecretory phenotype, impaired ciliary function and altered CFTR activity in air-liquid interface cultures of cystic fibrosis primary nasal epithelial cells. (ALI cell)

Project description:Atmospheric oxygen tension is increasingly recognized to be hyperoxic for the maintenance of in vitro cell cultures. Oxygen has broad implications on energy metabolism, cellular growth and many regulatory functions. Primary airway epithelial cells (AECs) differentiated at air-liquid interface (ALI) are the gold standard for preclinical assessment of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulatory (CFTR) modulator efficacy in CF. The fidelity of CF AECs cultured at atmospheric oxygen tension rather than at reduced oxygen tension which more closely reflect the in vivo environment has not been studied to date. This study examined the impact of ambient (21%) and low (2%) oxygen tension on the expansion and differentiation of nasal epithelial cells (hNECs) derived from 11 participants (8 with CF and 3 non-CF). hNECs expanded under normoxic and chronic hypoxic conditions demonstrated epithelial cobblestone morphology and similar proliferation rate. hNECs differentiated at hypoxia demonstrated poorer differentiation capacity (significantly thinner epithelium and lower TEER) and a shift from ciliated to secretory epithelial phenotype. Hypoxic differentiated hNECs had significantly shorter cilia length, slower beating frequency but had improved cilia coordination. CFTR functional response is altered in hypoxic differentiated hNECs. This study highlights the need to reconsider the oxygen tension used in CF primary cell cultures so as to preserve the characteristics and functional response of the cell models as we progress towards personalised medicine in CF.

Melatonin mediates stress defense and improves development competence of bovine oocytes

Project description:Oocyte quality, which is directly related to reprogramming competence, is a major important limiting factor in animal cloning efficiency. Compared with oocytes matured in vivo, in vitro matured (IVM) oocytes exhibit lower oocyte quality and reprogramming competence primarily because of their higher levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this study, we investigate whether supplementing the oocyte maturation medium with melatonin, a free radical scavenger, could improve oocyte quality and reprogramming competence. We found that 10−9 M melatonin effectively alleviated oxidative stress, markedly decreased early apoptosis levels, recovered the integrity of mitochondria, ameliorated the spindle assembly and chromosome alignment in oocytes, and significantly promoted subsequent cloned embryo development in vitro. We also analyzed the effects of melatonin on epigenetic modifications in bovine oocytes. Melatonin increased the global H3K9 acetylation levels, reduced the H3K9 methylation levels, and minimally affected DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation. Genome-wide expression analysis of genes affected by melatonin during oocyte maturation was conducted by high-throughput scRNA sequencing. We found that several important genes altered by melatonin were involved in oocyte stress defense. These genes included GSTP1, mitochondrial DNA polymerase POLG, mitochondrial ATP synthase ATP5E, centriole-enriched gene CEP295, spindle assembly-related gene TCTP, cytoprotection, and anti-apoptosis-related gene HSP27. Our results indicated critical roles of melatonin during bovine oocyte maturation and development.

Anti-apoptotic regulation contributes successful nuclear reprogramming using cryopreserved oocytes

Project description:The cryopreservation has a negative effect on the quality of oocytes and may be closely associated with increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptotic events. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the detrimental effects on the developmental competence of somatic cell nuclear transferred (SCNT)- mouse embryos using vitrified (cryopreserved) oocytes and to evaluate the recovery effects of melatonin on cryo-damage in cloned embryos. Development of SCNT embryos using cryopreserved oocyte cytoplasm (SCNT-CROC) was inferior to those using fresh cytoplasm (SCNT-FOC). Using RNA-sequencing analysis, we found upregulation of 8 pro-apoptotic-related genes (Cyct, Dapk2, Dffb, Gadd45g, Hint2, Mien1, P2rx7, and Pmaip) in the SCNT-CROC group. Furthermore, the addition of melatonin, an agent that reduces apoptosis and ROS production, enhanced blastocyst formation rates in the SCNT-CROP group when compared with the melatonin-untreated group. Additionally, melatonin-treatment increased the derivation efficiency of pluripotent stem cells from cloned embryos using cryopreserved oocyte.

Cumulus cell gene expression associated with pre-ovulatory acquisition of developmental competence in bovine oocytes

Project description:This study investigated the cumulus cell (CC) transcriptomic changes during the oocyte developmental competence acquisition period. Six dairy cows were used for 24 oocyte collections and received FSH twice daily over 3 days, followed by FSH withdrawal for 20, 44, 68 and 92 h in four different oestrous cycles for each of the six cows. Half of the cumulusâoocyte complexes were subjected to in vitro maturation, fertilisation and culture to assess blastocyst rate. The other half of the CC underwent microarray analysis and qRT-PCR.

Expression data from mouse cumulus cells

Project description:Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) are currently used on cumulus-oocyte complexes to mimic the luteinizing hormone surge in vitro and induce oocyte maturation and cumulus expansion. We have previously shown that addition of exogenous recombinant growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) during oocyte in vitro maturation led to an improvement of oocyte quality, as shown by an increased blastocyst percentage and fetal survival. Our objective was to characterize the effect of FSH/EGF and GDF9 treatments on mouse cumulus cells expression profile by microarray analysis. Cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) were recovered from 21 to 26 day old female 129/SV mice, 44 hours post equine chorionic gonadotropin treatment (eCG (5 IU)). For the microarray experiment whole COCs were treated with 293H control medium (0.125% v/v), with 20 ng/ml GDF9 or with a combination of 50 mIU/ml FSH and 10 ng/ml EGF. After 8 hours of in vitro maturation, COCs were denuded by gentle pipetting, the oocytes were removed and the cumulus cells centrifuged and extracted RNA analysed by microarray.

Ambient O2 pressure induces NF-kB1/RelA related inflammatory response in human lung epithelial cells in vitro

Project description:Purpose: Oxygen (O2) levels in cell culture conditions is typically 2-5 fold higher than the physiological O2 levels that most tissues experience in vivo. The ambient atmospheric O2 (21%) is known to induce cell proliferation defects and cellular senescence in stem cell and primary cell cultures. Therefore, culturing these cells under lower O2 levels (2-9%) is currently a standard practice. However, the non-cancerous immortalized cells and cancer cells, which evade cellular senescence are normally cultured under 21% O2 levels and the effects of higher O2 levels on these cells are not fully understood. Methods: Gene expression (RNA seq transcriptomics) analysis of immortalized human bronchial epithelial (BEAS-2B) cells cultured at ambient 21% O2 and lower 10% O2 levels for 3 days and 3 weeks. Further the beneficial effects of cuturing cells under lower oxygen tension is evalulated Results: Our results show NF-κB/RelA mediated activation of pro-inflammatory cytokines as a major outcome of cells being cultured 21% O2. Moreover, we demonstrate increased RelA binding at the NF-κB1/RelA target gene promoters at 21% O2. Interestingly, contrary to cells cultutred at 21% O2, external stress induced by H2O2 exposure did not induce inflammatory response in cells grown at 10% O2, suggesting increased ability to handle external stress in cells cultured at lower O2 levels.

MicroRNA-34c from follicular fluid-derived extracellular vesicles is a modulator of embryo quality

Project description:Oocyte competence is progressively acquired during follicle growth, with large follicles containing more often competent oocytes than small follicles. A competent oocyte is able to mature in vitro, be fertilized, and develop to the blastocyst stage. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their cargo micro RNAs (miRNAs) are critical in mediating intercellular communication inside the follicle and facilitating oocyte maturation. Whether follicular EVs are also involved in the acquisition of oocyte competence in the growing follicle remains unclear. Here, we have been using an individual culture system to distinguish follicular fluid and their corresponding bovine oocytes as competent or noncompetent. We used a qEV single-column method to isolate EVs from follicular fluid. RNA sequencing revealed 16 differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs in EVs from follicular fluid derived from either competent or noncompetent oocytes . Among the up-regulated miRNAs, we selected bta-miR-34c to further validate its effect on oocyte competence during in vitro maturation using mimics and inhibitors. By supplementing miR-34c mimics to the oocyte maturation medium, we could significantly improve blastocyst quality, as evidenced by higher cell numbers, while supplementation of miR-34c inhibitors produced the opposite effect. Taken together, the up-regulation of miR-34c in EVs derived from follicular fluid from competent oocytes is indicative of its regulatory role, and, when added during in vitro maturation of unselected oocytes, is able to increase total cell number and inner cell mass of resulting embryos, thus contributing to the development of healthy offspring
