Project description:Purpose: To reveal the small RNA profiles in the intima using traditional and PANDORA-seq methods. Methods: 3-week-old LDLR-/- male mice were fed a high cholesterol or low cholesterol diet for 9 weeks. Intimal RNA was extracted by injecting Trizol into the aorta and collecting the flow through for further processing. Results: PANDORA-seq revealed an abundant amount of tsRNA and rsRNA that were undetected by traditional-seq. Importantly, PANDORA-seq revealed that many differentially regulated sncRNAs also undetected with traditional-seq.

Project description:Small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) are key molecules regulating gene expression. High-throughput RNA-seq greatly advanced sncRNA discovery; however, traditional cDNA library construction protocols generate biased sequencing results, in part due to RNA modifications that interfere with adapter ligation and reverse transcription processes, preventing the detection of sncRNAs bearing these modifications. Here, we present PANDORA-seq (Panoramic RNA Display by Overcoming RNA modification Aborted Sequencing), employing a combination of enzymatic treatments to remove key RNA modifications that block adapter ligation and reverse transcription during cDNA library construction. PANDORA-Seq enables the discovery of thousands of modified sncRNAs previously undetected, mostly tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) and rRNA-derived small RNAs (rsRNAs), which are tissue/cell-specifically detected across mouse brain, liver, spleen, sperm, mouse and human embryonic stem cells, and HeLa cells. Moreover, PANDORA-Seq reveals dynamic changes of tsRNAs and rsRNAs during reprogramming of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), pointing to future investigations on their potential regulatory functions.

Project description:In this study, depressive-like mice induced by chronic unpredictable mild stimulation (CUMS) were used to investigate the impact of psychological stress on reproduction and alterations in sperm sncRNAs. The results showed that CUMS treatments for 4 weeks induced depressive behavior in male mice and significantly affected sperm quality. The results obtained from small RNA sequencing indicated that alterations occurred in the distribution and composition of small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs), encompassing PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), rRNA-derived small RNAs (rsRNA), and tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNA). Furthermore, the offspring of male mice with depressive-like behavior have a significant reduction in survival rate at 21 days after birth, and those that did survive displayed an increased susceptibility to depression.

Project description:We investigated differentially expressed sncRNAs in human sperm as candidate markers for evaluating sperm quality during IVF. We demonstrated that differentially expressed tsRNAs, rsRNAs and miRNAs are linked to sperm quality according to embryo quality, even though these sperm samples were all considered normal by the traditional semen-parameter assessment. Therefore, the sncRNAs, especially tsRNAs and rsRNAs, may be potential clinical biomarkers for the assessment of sperm quality in IVF.

Project description:The discovery of RNAs (e.g. mRNAs, non-coding RNAs) in sperm has opened the possibility that sperm may function in delivering additional paternal information aside from solely providing the DNA1. Increasing evidence now suggests that sperm small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) can mediate intergenerational transmission of paternally acquired phenotypes, including mental stress2, 3 and metabolic disorders4-6. How sperm sncRNAs encode paternal information remains unclear, but the mechanism may involve RNA modifications. Here we show that deletion of a mouse tRNA methyltransferase, DNMT2, abolished sperm sncRNA-mediated transmission of high-fat diet (HFD)-induced metabolic disorders to offspring. Dnmt2 deletion prevented the elevation of RNA modifications (m5C, m2G) in sperm 30-40nt RNA fractions that are induced by HFD. Also, Dnmt2 deletion altered the sperm small RNA expression profile, including levels of tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) and rRNA-derived small RNAs (rsRNA-28S), which might be essential in composing a sperm RNA ‘coding signature’ that is needed for paternal epigenetic memory. Finally, we show that Dnmt2-mediated m5C contributes to the secondary structure and biological properties of sncRNAs, implicating sperm RNA modifications as an additional layer of paternal hereditary information.

Project description:Excessive accumulation of manganese in brain can cause Parkinsonian-like symptoms, known as Manganism. Methylcyclopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl (MMT), a gasoline antiknock additive, is one of environmental exposures of manganese, which can lead to manganism in Rats. Though some researches showed that small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) were differently expressed in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients, it was still unclear whether and how sncRNAs dysfunction appeared in Manganism. Unfartunately, transfer RNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) and ribosomal RNA-derived small RNAs (rsRNAs) are highly modified, including 3’ terminal modification such as 3’-phosphate and 2’,3’-cyclic phosphate that block the adapter ligation process, and RNA methylations such as m1A, m3C, m1G and m22G that interfere with reverse transcription. Thus, sncRNAs could escape from traditional small RNA-seq. Here, we present the differential expression of sncRNAs in MMT-induced unrepaired striatum in rats compared with control group, using PANDORA-seq, which could discover the highly modified sncRNAs. By removing sncRNAs modification, we found that 599 sncRNAs were differently expressed in Striatum of MMT-treated rats compared with control group, and 1155 sncRNAs in Mn-treated vs control. Further function analysis for predicted targets of these DE-sncRNAs shown that dysregulation of sncRNAs was implicated Manganism in rats.

Project description:Purpose: Paternal life experiences impact offspring health via germline, and epigenetic inheritance provides a potential mechanism. However, global reprogramming during offspring embryogenesis and gametogenesis represents the largest hurdle to conceptualize it. Yet, detailed characterization of how sperm epigenetic alterations carrying “environmental memory” can evade offspring embryonic reprogramming remains elusive. Methods: we profiled the sperm DNA methylation patterns of three consecutive generations (F0, F1 and F2) in both control and stress groups by using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS). A total of 18 sperm samples were analyzed, including three biological replicates for each generation under each treatment. In addition, small RNA sequencing was carried out on paternal sperm samples to investigate whether long-term psychological stress affected the enrichment of certain sncRNAs and to identify whether they participated in mediating the occurrence and paternal inheritance of the stress-induced DMRs Rsults: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we obtained approximately 800 million clean reads per sample (build mm10) with strand-specific coverage ~21×, and the data covered ~96.00% of the total 21,867,837 reference CpG dinucleotides. A total of 24,427, 7,975, and 5,173 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) between control and stress groups were found in the F0, F1, and F2 generations, respectively. Inter- and transgenerational inheritance of paternal DMRs were at frequencies approximately 11.36% and 0.48%, respectively. These DMRs related to genes with functional implications for psychological stress response, and tissue inheritance of these DMRs passed paternal disorders epigenetically to offspring. More importantly, these DMRs evaded offspring embryonic reprogramming through erasure and subsequent reestablishment, but not via un-erasure way. Nonetheless, their reestablishment proportions in the primitive streak (E7.5) stage were altered. Furthermore, sncRNA-seq revealed that stress-induced tsRNA, miRNA and rsRNA dysregulation in paternal sperm might play important roles in DMRs occurrence and paternal inheritance.

Project description:Age is an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF), and curcumin can delay aging related disease through reducing oxidative stress and inflammation. However, its target in aging-related AF remains unclear. Transfer RNA-derived small RNA (tsRNA) is a novel short non-coding RNA (sncRNA), and exerts a potential regulatory function in aging. This study was to explore the therapeutic targets of curcumin in atrium of aged mice by PANDORA-seq. Aged mice (18 month) were treated with curcumin (100mg/kg). Rapid transjugular atrial pacing was performed to observe AF inducibility. SA-β-gal staining, ROS detection and qRT-PCR were used to assess the degree of aging and oxidative stress/inflammation levels. PANDORA-seq was performed to reveal the differentially expressed sncRNAs in the atrium of mice. The results showed that curcumin reduced the susceptibility AF of aged mice by improving aging-related atrial fibrosis. Compared to young mice (5 month) group, aged mice yielded 473 significantly altered tsRNA sequences, while 947 tsRNA sequences were significantly altered after treated with curcumin. Enrichment analysis revealed that the target genes were mainly related to DNA damage and protein modification. Compared with the 5mo group, the expression levels of mature-mt_tRNA-Val-TAC_CCA_end, mature-mt_tRNA-Glu-TTC_CCA_end, and mature-tRNA-Asp-GTC_CCA_end were up-regulated in the 18mo group, while the expression of mature-mt_tRNA-Thr-TGT_5_end was down-regulated. This trend was reversed in the 18mo+curcumin group. Increased cellular ROS levels, inflammation expression and senescence in aged mice atrium were improved by the down-regulation of mature-mt_tRNA-Val-TAC_CCA_end. In conclusion, our findings identified mature-mt_tRNA-Val-TAC_CCA_end participated in the mechanism of aging-related atrial fibrosis, providing new intervention target of aging-related AF.

Project description:Purpose: Screening the sperm sncRNAs that are responsible for dairy cattle fertility is of great interest, however, exploring the fertility-associated sncRNAs in sperm and linking them with the epigenetic inheritance in bovine has not been performed yet. Here in this study, we hypothesized that some sncRNAs in bovine sperm have a great potential to be linked with direct and immediate bull fertility data and could later influence the embryo and possibly impacting the daughter fertility. Methods: 12 bovine cryopreserved semen (high bull fertility, n=3 VS low bull fertility, n=3; high daughter fertility, n=3 vs low daughter fertility, n=3) that came from a pre-filtered 100 bull list (Figure 1) had been selected to extract total sperm RNA, the somatic cell lysis buffer had been added during the RNA extraction process to avoid the somatic cell pollution. The maternal and other confounding factors had been taken into consideration during the calculation of the phenotype criteria index.After the library construction, the library size that was smaller than 200 base pairs (adapter size around 125 nt) had been cut and sent for next-generation sequencing Results: bull fertility and daughter fertility related sncRNAs had been identified. Conclusions: providing promising epigenetic biomarker for cattle fertility improvement in the future, although these small non-coding RNAs need to be validated in larger sample sizes before being used as biomarkers.
