Sire modulates developmental kinetics and transcriptome in the bovine embryo

ABSTRACT: The impact of sire on pre-implantation embryonic development in cattle remains poorly understood. This study evaluated differences in embryos produced from sires with varying capacities to produce blastocysts. Sires classified as high (HP) and low-performing (LP) based on their ability to produce embryos were used in order to better understand how sire regulates embryonic development. By monitoring embryo development, it was determined that the most common arrest stage was the 5-6 cell stage. Embryos (4-6 cells) from HP and LP sires were analyzed for autophagic activity, where embryos for LP sires exhibited increased autophagy than HP-derived embryos. Transcriptome analysis of 4-cell embryos found that embryos from LP sires might have issues in sperm mitochondrial clearance, histone retention, and DNA damage, while HP sires have increased expression of genes involved in transcription, chromosome segregation, and cell division. In conclusion, LP sires have an increased proportion of embryos arresting at the 5-6 cell stage, and these embryos have higher rates of cellular stress due to paternal contributions from the spermatozoon.

Project description:Background: Disease severity of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is influenced by diet. Dietary protein, a recognized cyst-accelerating factor, is catabolized into amino acids (AA) and delivered to the kidney leading to renal hypertrophy. Injury-induced hypertrophic signaling in ADPKD results in increased macrophage (MФ) activation and inflammation followed by cyst growth. We hypothesize that the cystogenesis-prompting effects of HP diet are caused by increased delivery of specific AA to the kidney, ultimately stimulating MФs to promote cyst progression. Methods: Pkd1 flox/flox mice with and without Cre (CAGG-ER) were given tamoxifen to induce global gene deletion (Pkd1KO). Pkd1KO mice were fed either a low (LP; 6%), normal (NP; 18%), or high (HP; 60%) diet for 1 week (early) or 6 weeks (chronic). Mice were then euthanized and tissues were used for histology, immunofluorescence and various biochemical assays. One week fed kidney tissue was cell sorted to isolate tubular epithelial cells for RNA sequencing. Results: Chronic dietary protein load in Pkd1KO mice increased kidney weight, number of kidney infiltrating and resident MФs, chemokines, cytokines and cystic index compared to LP diet fed mice. Accelerated cyst growth induced by chronic HP were attenuated by liposomal clodronate-mediated MФ depletion. Early HP diet fed Pkd1KO mice had larger cystic kidneys compared to NP or LP fed counterparts, but without increases in the number of kidney MФs, cytokines, or markers of tubular injury. RNA sequencing of tubular epithelial cells in HP compared to NP or LP diet group revealed increased expression of sodium-glutamine transporter Snat3, chloride channel Clcnka, and gluconeogenesis marker Pepck1, accompanied by increased excretion of urinary ammonia, a byproduct of glutamine. Conclusion: Chronic dietary protein load-induced renal hypertrophy and accelerated cyst growth in Pkd1KO mice is dependent on both infiltrating and resident MФ recruitment and subsequent inflammatory response. Early cyst expansion by HP diet, however, is relient on increased delivery of glutamine to kidney epithelial cells, driving downstream metabolic changes prior to inflammatory provocation.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that negatively regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally. They play a critical role in developmental and physiological processes and have been implicated in the pathogenesis of several diseases including cancer. To identify miRNA signatures associated with different stages of neoplastic development, we examined the expression profile of 776 primate miRNAs in the following cells: primary African green monkey kidney (pAGMK) cells; spontaneously immortalized, non-tumorigenic, low-passage VERO cells (10-87 LP); tumorigenic, high-passage VERO cells (10-87 HP); and a cell line (10-87 T) derived from a 10-87 HP cell tumor xenograft in athymic nude mice. When compared with pAGMK cells, the majority of miRNAs were expressed at lower levels in 10-87 LP, 10-87 HP, and 10-87 T cells. We identified 10 up-regulated miRNAs whose level of expression correlated with VERO cell evolution from a non-tumorigenic phenotype to a tumorigenic phenotype. Several miRNAs that were components of the tumorigenic phenotype-specific signatures in our AGMK model are also found in a variety of human tumors. This may prove to be of general relevance to the biology of neoplastic development as it occurs both in vivo as well as in vitro. In addition, one or more of these miRNAs could be potential biomarkers for the expression of the tumorigenic phenotype of VERO cells. The spontaneousely transformed VERO cells, non-tumorigenic, were pasasged at low density in culture up to 250. The high passage (p250) was found to be tumorigenic. The cell line from xenograft of high passage was also established. We then evaluated patterns of miRNA expression in pAGMK cells and in derivatives of the 10-87 VERO cell line (10-87 LP cells, 10-87 HP cells, and 10-87 T cells) in an attempt to identify the miRNAs whose altered expression might correlate with, and perhaps be involved in, the evolution of the neoplastic phenotypes that occurred during passage of these AGMK cells in tissue culture. performed high-throughput miRNA profiling to audit the expression level of miRNAs in pAGMK cells and in VERO cells at non-tumorigenic and tumorigenic stages of neoplastic development. The analysis involved pAGMK cells, non-tumorigenic 10-87 low-passage VERO cells (10-87 LP) tumorigenic, high-passage VERO cells (10-87 HP) and a cell line (10-87 T) derived from a 10-87 HP cell tumor xenograft in athymic nude mice.
