Project description:Mammalian spermatogenesis is a complex biological process that occurs within a highly organized tissue, the seminiferous epithelium. The coordinated maturation of spermatogonia, spermatocytes and spermatids suggests the existence of precise programs of gene expression in these cells as well as in their neighboring somatic Sertoli cells. The objective of this study was to elucidate genes encoding the proteins that execute these programs. Rat seminiferous tubules at stages I, II-III, IV-V, VI, VIIa,b, VIIc,d, VIII, IX-XI, XII, XIII-XIV of the cycle were isolated by microdissection and Sertoli cells, spermatogonia plus early spermatocytes, pachytene spermatocytes and spermatids were purified from enzymatically-dispersed testes. Microarray analysis using Rat Genome 230 2.0 arrays identified a total of 16,971 probe sets that recognized transcripts. A comparison with the transcriptome of other tissues identified 398 testis-specific probe sets, which therefore are potential targets for the development of new contraceptives. Sequential waves of cell and stage-specific gene expression are associated with progression of germ cells through the stages of the cycle of the seminiferous epithelium and 1612 probe sets recognized transcripts whose expressions varied at least 4-fold across the stages of the cycle. Pathway analyses reveal that entire biological processes are regulated cyclically in testicular cells. Important among these are cell cycle and DNA repair. Thus, stage-specific gene expression is a widespread and fundamental characteristic of spermatogenic cells and Sertoli cells. Experiment Overall Design: Seminiferous tubules at the following stages or groups of stages were isolated by transillumination-assisted microdissection: I, II-III, IV-V, VI, VIIa,b, VIIc,d, VIII, IX-XI, XII, XIII-XIV. Twenty-five segments of tubules, 2 m in length, were collected at each stage or group of stages from each rat. Tubules from two separate animals were pooled to form one sample from each stage or groups of stages. A total of 5 independent samples per stage or groups of stages were analyzed. Mature Sertoli cells were isolated to about 85% purity (n=4). Three groups of germ cells were isolated by centrifugal elutriation from enzyme-dispersed testes: round spermatids (n=4), pachytene spermatocytes (n=4) and spermatogonia plus early spermatocytes (n=3) . Purity of these cells has been shown to vary between 85% to 95%

Project description:During spermatogenesis, mammalian male germ cells undergo multiple developmental processes, including meiosis and post-meiotic differentiation (spermiogenesis). To understand the transitions between different cellular states it is essential to isolate pure populations of cells at different stages of development. Previous approaches enabled the isolation of cells from different stages of meiotic prophase I, but techniques to sub-fractionate unfixed, post-meiotic spermatids have been lacking. Here we report the development of a protocol enabling simultaneous isolation of cells at different stages of meiotic prophase and post-meiotic differentiation from testes of adult mice. This approach builds on existing fluorescence activated cell sorting protocols designed to purify cells in different stages of meiotic prophase I. By utilizing the specific spectral properties that two different DNA dyes (Hoechst 33342 and SYTO 16) exhibit when bound to chromatin of different stage male germ cells, we obtain highly pure populations of cells in relatively large numbers. This FACS protocol will enable immunocytological and molecular characterization studies of fractionated meiotic and haploid germ cells from both wild type and genetically mutant animals.

Project description:Technological advances have enabled the analysis of cellular protein and RNA levels with unprecedented depth and sensitivity, allowing for an unbiased re?evaluation of gene regulation during fundamental biological processes. Here, we have chronicled the dynamics of protein and mRNA expression levels across a minimally perturbed cell cycle in human myeloid leukemia cells using centrifugal elutriation combined with mass spectrometry?based proteomics and RNA?Seq, avoiding artificial synchronization procedures.

Project description:Spermatogenesis is a complex process, dependent upon the successive activation and/or repression of thousands of gene products, and ends with the production of haploid male gametes. RNA sequencing of male germ cells in the rat identified thousands of novel testicular unannotated transcripts, named TUTs. Although such RNAs are usually annotated as long non-coding RNAs, it is possible that some of these TUTs code for protein. To test this possibility, we used a “Proteomics Informed by Transcriptomics” strategy, combining shotgun proteomics analyses and RNA sequencing data for enriched populations of rat testicular cells. Among 3559 TUTs and 506 lncRNAs found in meiotic and post-meiotic germ cells, 44 encoded at least one peptide. We show that these novel high-confidence protein-coding loci exhibit several genomic features intermediate between those of lncRNAs and mRNAs. We experimentally validated the testicular expression pattern of two of these novel protein-coding gene candidates, both highly conserved in mammals: one for a vesicle-associated membrane protein, we named VAMP-9, and the other for an enolase domain-containing protein. This study confirms the potential of PIT approaches for the discovery of protein coding transcripts initially thought to be untranslated, or unknown transcripts. Our results contribute to the understanding of spermatogenesis by characterizing two novel proteins, implicated by their strong expression in germ cells.

Project description:Evidence of male-to-female sexual transmission of Zika virus (ZIKV) and viral RNA in semen and sperm months after infection support a potential role for testicular cells in ZIKV propagation. Here, we demonstrate that germ cells (GC) are most susceptible to ZIKV. We find that only GC infected by ZIKV, but not those infected by dengue fever (DENV) and yellow fever virus (YFV), produce high levels of infectious virus. This observation coincides with decreased expression of interferon-stimulated gene Ifi44l in ZIKV-infected GC and over-expression of Ifi44l results in reduced ZIKV production. Using primary human testicular tissue, we demonstrate that human GC are also permissive for ZIKV infection and production. Finally, we identify berberine chloride as a potent inhibitor of ZIKV infection in both murine and human testes. Together, these studies identify a potential cellular source for propagation of ZIKV in testes and a candidate drug for preventing sexual transmission of ZIKV.
