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.

Project description:Background: The gonadotropin-induced resumption of oocyte meiosis in preovulatory follicles is preceded by expression of epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like peptides, amphiregulin (AREG) and epiregulin (EREG), in mural granulosa and cumulus cells. Both the gonadotropins and the EGF-like peptides possess the capacity to stimulate resumption of oocyte meiosis in vitro via activation of a broad signaling network in cumulus cells. To better understand the rapid genomic actions of gonadotropins (FSH) and EGF-like peptides, we analyzed transcriptomes of cumulus cells at 3 h after their stimulation. Methods: We hybridized aRNA from cumulus cells to a pig oligonucleotide microarray and compared the transcriptomes of FSH- and AREG/EREG-stimulated cumulus cells with untreated control cells and vice versa. The identified over- and underexpressed genes were subjected to functional genomic analysis according to their molecular and cellular functions. The expression pattern of 50 selected genes with a known or potential function in ovarian development was verified by real-time qRT-PCR. Results: Both FSH and AREG/EREG increased the expression of genes associated with regulation of cell proliferation, cell migration, blood coagulation and extracellular matrix remodeling. FSH alone induced the expression of genes involved in inflammatory response and in the response to reactive oxygen species. Moreover, FSH stimulated the expression of genes closely related to some ovulatory events either exclusively or significantly more than AREG/EREG (AREG, ADAMTS1, HAS2, TNFAIP6, PLAUR, PLAT, and HSD17B7). In contrast to AREG/EREG, FSH also increased the expression of genes coding for key transcription factors (CEBPB, FOS, ID1/3, and NR5A2), which may contribute to the differing expression profiles of FSH- and AREG/EREG-treated cumulus cells. Conclusions: The impact of FSH on cumulus cell gene transcription was higher than the impact of EGF-like factors in terms of the number of cell functions affected as well as the number of over- and underexpressed genes. Both FSH and EGF-like factors overexpressed genes involved in the post-ovulatory switch in steroidogenesis and tissue remodelling. However, FSH was remarkably more efficient in the up-regulation of several specific genes essential for ovulation of matured oocytes and also genes that been reported to play an important role in maturation of cumulus-enclosed oocytes in vitro.

Project description:Mouse oocytes control cumulus cell metabolic processes that are deficient in the oocytes themselves and this delegation is necessary for oocyte development. Oocyte-derived bone morphogenetic factor 15 (BMP15) and growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) appear to be key regulators of follicular development. The effect of these factors on cumulus cell function before the preovulatory surge of luteinizing hormone (LH) was assessed by analysis of the transcriptomes of cumulus cells from wildtype (WT), Bmp15-/-, and Bmp15-/- Gdf9+/- double mutant (DM) mice using microarray analysis. The biological themes associated with the most highly-affected transcripts were identified using bioinformatic approaches, IPA and GenMAPP/MAPPFinder. There were 5,332, 7,640, and 2,651 transcripts identified to be significantly changed in the comparisons of Bmp15-/- vs. WT, DM vs. WT, and DM vs. Bmp15-/- respectively by the criteria of FC (fold change) p <0.01. Among theses changed transcripts, 744 were commonly changed in all three pair-wise comparisons, and hence were considered to be the most highly affected transcripts by mutation of Bmp15 and Gdf9. IPA Analyses revealed that metabolism was the major theme associated with the most highly-changed transcripts: glycolysis and sterol biosynthesis were the two most significantly affected pathways. Most of the transcripts encoding enzymes for sterol biosynthesis were down-regulated in both mutant cumulus cells and in WT cumulus cell after oocytectomy. Similarly, there was a reduction of de novo-synthesized cholesterol in these cumulus cells. This suggests that oocytes regulate cumulus cell metabolism, particularly sterol biosynthesis, by promoting the expression of corresponding transcripts. Furthermore, in WT-mice, Mvk, Pmvk, Fdps, Sqle, Cyp51, Sc4mol, and Ebp, which encode enzymes in the sterol biosynthetic pathway, were found to be expressed robustly in cumulus cells, but expression was barely detectable in oocytes. Levels of de novo-synthesized cholesterol were significantly higher in cumulusâenclosed oocytes than denuded oocytes. These results indicate that mouse oocytes are deficient in their ability to synthesize cholesterol and require cumulus cells to provide them with products of the sterol biosynthetic pathway. Oocyte-derived BMP15 and GDF9 may promote this metabolic pathway in cumulus cells as compensation for their own deficiencies. Experiment Overall Design: Three sets of independent cumulus cell samples were collected for each genotype (wild type, Bmp15-/-, and Bmp15-/-Gdf9+/-) of mice, and were used for the array study as shown below.

Project description:The oocyte forms a complex with their somatic cumulus cells within the follicle throughout the preovulatory maturation steps. Cumulus cells support their oocyte not only through mechanical protection but also with a close bidirectional exchange of metabolites. Analysis of the oocytes cumulus gives the opportunity to explore non-invasively oocytal well-being and quality. In vitro maturation (IVM) is the first rate-limiting step in in vitro embryo production. Analysis of protein expression in cumulus cells around this critical step helps to explore the impact of maturation conditions and to examine an influence on maturational competence of the oocyte. The goal of this study was the comparison of the cumulus proteome of oocytes with and without maturational competence matured under in vivo and in vitro conditions. Therefore twenty cumulus samples corresponding to single oocytes were analysed. Half of the samples were matured in vivo and the other half in vitro. For each maturation group, cumulus from oocytes matured successfully (SM; n=5) and failed to mature (FM; n=5) were analysed.

Project description:Bi-directional communication between cumulus cells and the surrounded oocytes is important for the development and functions of both compartments. However, the metabolic framework in cumulus cells has not been systematically described. In the present study, cumulus cells from cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) at three key time points were isolated, and the temporal metabolomic and proteomic profiling were performed. Integrated multi-omics analysis reveals the global metabolic patterns in cumulus cells during mouse oocyte maturation. In particular, we found the active hyaluronic acid metabolism, steroid hormone synthesis, and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production in cumulus cells. Meanwhile, accompanying the oocyte maturation, a progressive increase in nucleotide and amino acid metabolism were was detected in the surrounding cumulus cells. In addition, the comparison of metabolite changes between oocyte and cumulus cells implicates the metabolic coordination. In sum, the data serve as a valuable resource for probing follicular metabolism during follicular development, and provide the potential biomarkers for improving and predicting oocyte quality.

Project description:impact of suppressing LH using the GnRH antagonist Cetrorelix during an ovarian coasting stimulation protocol on the transcriptome of bovine cumulus cells (CC). Oocytes were collected twice from six dairy cows. For the first collection, the cows received FSH twice daily for three days, followed by FSH withdrawal for 68 hours as control protocol. For the second collection, the same stimulation protocol was used, but the cows also received, starting on day 2 of FSH stimulation, a GnRH antagonist once a day until recovery of the cumulus-oocyte complexes (COC). Half of the COC were subjected to in vitro maturation, fertilization and culture to assess blastocyst rates. The other half of the CC underwent microarray analysis (n=3 cows, 2 treatments, 6 oocyte collections) and qRT-PCR (n=6 cows: 3 microarray cows + 3 other cows, 2 treatments, 12 oocyte collections). The differential expression of specific genes was confirmed by RT-qPCR: ATP6AP2, SC4MOL, OSTC and PTGDS. The global transcriptomic analysis of cumulus cells demonstrated that the inhibition of LH secretion may decrease survival, and growth of the follicle. Moreover, the results suggested that LH may be important to cumulus for the maintenance of cellular mechanisms such as global RNA expression, protein and nucleic acid metabolism and energy production. These results support the hypothesis that LH support is important during the final part of follicle maturation through its influence on the cumulus cells.
