Silencing of mrhl non coding RNA in mouse spermatoginial cells GC1-Spg

ABSTRACT: Mrhl is a non coding RNA identified from mouse chromosome 8. It is a 2.4kb poly adenylated, nuclear restricted RNA expressed in multiple tissues. The 2.4 kb RNA also undergoes a nuclear processing event mediated through Drosha that generates an 80nt intermediate RNA. This study was aimed at understanding the functiion of mrhl by silencing the mrhl RNA in the mouse spermatogonial cells using a pool of siRNAs targeted against the mrhl and analyse the global gene expression change using Affymetrix mouse expression array. The mRNAs that showed significant change in expression in mrhl siRNA treated cells against control were studied further for their biological significance with respect to mrhl silencing.

Project description:Autoimmune regulator (AIRE) is a gene associated with autoimmune polyendocrinopathy-candidiasis-ectodermal dystrophy (APECED). AIRE is expressed heavily in the thymic epithelial cells and is involved in maintaining self-tolerance through regulating the expression of tissue-specific antigens. The testes are the most predominant extrathymic location where a heavy expression of AIRE is reported. Homozygous Aire-deficient male mice were infertile, possibly due to impaired spermatogenesis, deregulated germ cell apoptosis, or autoimmunity. We report that AIRE is expressed in the testes of neonatal, adolescent, and adult mice. AIRE expression was detected in glial cell derived neurotrophic factor receptor alpha (GFR?)(+) (spermatogonia), GFR?(-)/synaptonemal complex protein (SCP3)(+) (meiotic), and GFR?(-)/Phosphoglycerate kinase 2 (PGK2)(+) (postmeiotic) germ cells in mouse testes. GC1-spg, a germ-cell-derived cell line, did not express AIRE. Retinoic acid induced AIRE expression in GC1-spg cells. Ectopic expression of AIRE in GC1-spg cells using label-free LC-MS/MS identified a total of 371 proteins that were differentially expressed. 100 proteins were up-regulated, and 271 proteins were down-regulated. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD002511. Functional analysis of the differentially expressed proteins showed increased levels of various nucleic-acid-binding proteins and transcription factors and a decreased level of various cytoskeletal and structural proteins in the AIRE overexpressing cells as compared with the empty vector-transfected controls. The transcripts of a select set of the up-regulated proteins were also elevated. However, there was no corresponding decrease in the mRNA levels of the down-regulated set of proteins. Molecular function network analysis indicated that AIRE influenced gene expression in GC1-spg cells by acting at multiple levels, including transcription, translation, RNA processing, protein transport, protein localization, and protein degradation, thus setting the foundation in understanding the functional role of AIRE in germ cell biology.
