Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine and metabolic disorder that is characterized by increased circulating androgen levels, anovulatory infertility, and frequently, insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia.The abnormity of oocyte nuclear maturity is the main reason for anovulatory infertility and pregnancy loss in PCOS patients.The bidirectional exchanges between oocyte and contiguous CCs are important for oocyte competence acquisition, early embryonic development and CC expansion.Gene expression profiles of CCs has been suggested to predict embryo development and pregnancy outcome. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression of CCs isolated from oocytes at metaphase I (CCMI) and metaphase II (CCMII) stage under controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) cycle in PCOS patients. Cumulus cells were isolated from oocyte at stage metaphase 1(MI)and stage metaphase II (MII) of PCOS patients for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. For microarray analysis, we used three chips for each CC category. That is, CCMI1,CCMI2,CCMI3,CCMII1,CCMII2 and CCMII3.

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), the most common cause of anovulatory infertility, is characterized by increased ovarian androgen production, arrested follicle development, and is frequently associated with insulin resistance. These PCOS phenotypes are associated with exaggerated ovarian responsiveness to FSH and increased pregnancy loss. To examine whether the perturbations in follicle growth and the intrafollicular environment affects development of the mature PCOS oocyte, genes that are differentially expressed in PCOS compared to normal oocytes were defined using microarray analysis. This analysis detected approximately 8000 transcripts. Hierarchical clustering and principal component analysis revealed differences in global gene expression profiles between normal and PCOS oocytes. 374 genes had a statistically-significant increase or decrease in mRNA abundance in PCOS oocytes. A subset of these genes was associated with chromosome alignment and segregation during mitosis and/or meiosis, suggesting that increased mRNAs for these proteins may negatively affect oocyte maturation and/or early embryonic development. Of the 374 differentially expressed genes, 68 contained putative androgen receptor, retinoic acid receptor, and/or peroxisome proliferating receptor gamma binding sites, including 9 of the genes involved in chromosome alignment and segregation. These analyses demonstrated that normal and PCOS oocytes that are morphologically indistinguishable and of high quality exhibit different gene expression profiles. Furthermore, altered mRNA levels in the PCOS oocyte may contribute to defects in meiosis and/or mitosis which might impair oocyte competence for early development and therefore contribute to poor pregnancy outcome in PCOS.

Experiment Overall Design: A single MII oocyte, defined by one polar body in the perivitelline space and no visible nuclear structure in the cytoplasm, was collected from 6 individual NL and 6 individual PCOS ovaries, placed immediately in TRIzol (Sigma, St. Louis MO), and stored at -80 C until further study. Total RNA was isolated from each oocyte and subjected to three rounds of linear amplification with the Ovation Biotin RNA Amplification and Labeling System (NuGen Technologies, San Carlos CA) per the manufacturerâs instructions. RNA from the GeneChip Eukaryotic Poly-A RNA Control Kit (Affymetrix, Santa Clara CA) was amplified and labeled under the same conditions for a positive control. Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 microarray chips (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) were hybridized at the University of Pennsylvania Microarray Core Facility. Briefly, the linear-amplified, biotin-labled cDNA from 6 NL (N1-N6) and 6 PCOS (P1-P6) oocytes was hybridized to individual Affymetrix U133 chips. The fluorescence intensity of each chip was normalized to a trimmed mean signal of 150. Each transcript on the U133 chip was defined as present or absent in each oocyte sample using the Affymetrix Microarray Suite 5.0.

Project description:Oocyte maturation defects are one contributing factor in unexplained female infertility. Failure of some oocytes to undergo germinal vesicle breakdown or progress to second meiotic metaphase in response to an ovulatory stimulus can limit the number of high quality oocytes available for assisted reproduction. Understanding the molecular mechanisms that underlie oocyte maturation failure may lead to novel methods for increasing the number of high quality oocytes available for assisted reproduction, as well as providing new insight into the basic biology of oocyte maturation. Using RNA sequencing, we compared the transcriptome of rhesus monkey oocytes that failed to mature (FTM) in response to an ovulatory stimulus in vivo to normal germinal vesicle and metaphase II stage oocytes.

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common and heterogeneous endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age.Depending on different criteria and populations,the prevalence of PCOS ranges from 6 to 8% with the NIH criteria, and up to 20% with the Rotterdam criteria.Further, it accounts for approximately 75% of anovulatory infertility.Circular RNAs (circRNAs) mediate the posttranscriptional regulation of multiple genes by functioning as microRNA (miRNA) sponges. This study aimed to detect the novel expression of circRNAs in the cumulus cells (CCs) of PCOS patients and their potential significance in the pathogenesis of PCOS.

Project description:Cumulus cells (CCs) are biologically distinct from other follicular cells and perform specialized roles, transmitting signals within the ovary and supporting oocyte maturation during follicular development. The Affymetrix 3’ IVT express protocol was used to prepare cRNA (one-cycle amplification) with a starting concentration of 100 ng of total RNA To compare groups of CCs at different stages of oocyte nuclear maturation, a Significance Analysis of Microarrays (SAM) was performed. CC samples were issued from oocyte at germinal vesicle (CCGV), stage metaphase I (CCMI) and stage metaphase II (CCMII)

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is typically characterized by oligo or anovulation, hyperandrogenism and polycystic ovarian morphology, affecting 5-20% of women of reproductive age [1]. It has drawn significant attention as a major cause of anovulatory infertility and the syndrome of metabolic, reproductive and obstetrical disorders [2 ,+]. Due to heterogeneous clinical features and unclear pathogenesis of PCOS, the diagnosis and treatment strategies remain a matter of debate. To better understand the complex follicular development environment in PCOS, we conducted a TMT-based quantitative proteomic study to compare the composition of proteins, pathways and molecular functions of FF from lean and overweight/obese women with PCOS and that of healthy controls.

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrinopathy affecting reproductive aged women, whose etiology has not been fully understood yet. The follicular growth is arrested at preantral stage leading to cyst formation, consequently resulting in anovulatory infertility in these women. As follicular fluid provides the microenvironment for the growing oocyte, molecular profiling of the fluid may provide unique information about pathophysiology associated with follicular development in PCOS. Modification with oligosaccharide chains are known to influence functions of several secreted proteins and these glycoproteins also play a role in disease pathology. The glycoproteomic profile of follicular fluid of PCOS has not been explored in PCOS yet. In the present study, we performed comparative glycoproteomic analysis by first enriching glycoproteins using three different lectins viz. concanavalin A, wheat germ agglutinin and Jacalin from follicular fluid of women with PCOS and controls undergoing in vitro fertilization. Peptides generated by trypsin digestion were labeled with isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification reagents and analyzed by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. We identified 10 differentially expressed glycoproteins, in the follicular fluid of women with PCOS compared to control. Two important differentially expressed proteins- SERPINA1 and ITIH4, were consistently upregulated and downregulated respectively, upon validation by Western blotting in follicular fluid and real-time polymerase chain reaction in granulosa cells. These proteins play a role in angiogenesis and extracellular matrix stabilization which are vital for follicle maturation. In conclusion, comparative glycoprotein profiling of follicular fluid from women with PCOS and controls revealed altered expression of proteins which may contribute to defects in follicle development in PCOS pathophysiology.

Project description:The bidirectional communication between bovine oocytes and CCs is vital for functioning and development of both cell types. We used microarray to identify genes which are differentially expressed between germinal vesicle (GV)- and metaphase II (MII)-stage oocytes and CCs and those differentially expressed when oocytes mature with or without the other. We also identified genes differentially expressed between CCs at GV and MII stages. Slaughterhouse ovaries were collected and GV-stage cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) were aspirated. Different stages and types of oocytes and CCs were used for total RNA isolation and hybridisation on Affymetrix microarray.

Project description:The cumulus cells (CCs) that envelope antral and ovulated oocytes have been regarded as putative source of non-invasive markers of the oocyte developmental competence and a number of studies have observed a correlation between CCs gene expression, embryo quality and final pregnancy outcome. With the aim of identifying marker transcripts, we isolated CCs from antral mouse oocytes of known developmental incompetence (NSN-CCs) or competence (SN-CCs) and compared their transcriptomes.
