Project description:Maternal diabetes causes cardiac malformations in fetuses. In this study, we have analyzed the differential gene expression profiling in the developing heart of embryos from diabetic and control mice by using the oligonucleotide microarray. Expression patterns of genes and proteins that are differentially expressed in the developing heart were further examined by the real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry. Embryos of diabetic pregnancies displayed cardiac malformations. Microarray analysis revealed the genes that were altered in expression level in the developing heart of embryos from diabetic mice when compared to controls. It is concluded that altered expression of a variety of genes involved in heart development is associated with cardiac malformations in offsprings of diabetic mother. We used microarrays to identify the genes specific to the developing heart of embryos from control and diabetic mice RNA was isolated from heart tissue of control and diabetes exposed E13.5 and E15.5 mouse embryos (three samples each). The RNA was hybridised onto Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array.

Project description:Diabetic embryopathy can affect any developing organ system, although cardiovascular malformations, neural tube defects and caudal dysgenesis syndrome are the most prominent congenital malformations. We hypothesize that the metabolic imbalance occurring in diabetic pregnancy de-regulates tissue specific gene expression programs in the developing embryo. In order to identify genes whose expression is affected by maternal diabetes, we analyzed gene expression profiles of diabetes-exposed mouse embryos by using Affymetrix microarrays. We identified 129 genes with altered expression levels; 21 genes had increased and 108 genes had decreased expression levels in diabetes-exposed embryos relative to controls. A substantial fraction of these genes (35) are essential for normal embryonic development as shown by functional studies in mouse models. The largest fraction of diabetes-affected genes was in transcription factor and DNA-binding/chromatin remodeling functional categories (19%), which directly affect transcription. These findings suggest that transcriptional regulation in the developing embryos is perturbed by maternal diabetes and that transcriptional regulation plays a major role in the responses of embryos to intrauterine exposure to diabetic conditions. Interestingly, we found the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 α (Hif1α) deregulated in the embryos exposed to the conditions of maternal diabetes. Since hypoxic stress is associated with the complications of diabetic pregnancy, we performed a post-hoc analysis of our microarray data with a specific focus on known HIF1 target genes. Of 39 genes detected in our microarrays, the expression changes of 22 genes (20 were increased and two genes were decreased in diabetes-exposed embryos) were statistically significant. These results indicate that HIF1-regulated pathways are affected in diabetes-exposed embryos. These results strongly suggest that de-regulation of hypoxia/HIF1 activated pathways could be the one of the key molecular events associated with the exposure to the teratogenic intrauterine environment of a diabetic mother. Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA was isolated from whole embryos at embryonic day 10.5 (E10.5). Five diabetes-exposed embryos (2 of 5 embryos had neural tube defects; NTD) were compared to two control embryos. Diabetes was induced in female FVB mice (aged 7-9 weeks) by streptozotocin Embryos were isolated only from dams that were classified as diabetic with the blood glucose levels > 250 mg/dl from the mating day until the day of embryo harvest. Five ug of total RNA was reverse-transcribed, and biotin-labeled cRNA probe generated using the Affymetrix labeling kit and protocol per manufacturers instructions. Probes were then hybridized to the Affymetrix 430A 2.0 genome chip with 14,338 genes. Following washing and staining, the chips were scanned using the Affymetrix GeneChip 3000 scanner in Genetic Microarray Core Facility at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. Images were analyzed using Affymetrix GCOS imaging software. Quality metric parameters including noise level, background, and the efficiency of reverse transcription were ascertained for all hybridizations. The expression levels and the âcallâ of âPresentâ, âMarginalâ, âAbsentâ for each probe set were determined by the comparison of the signal intensity of matched and mismatched oligonucleotide probes for the gene sequence.

Project description:Distinct miRNA expression patterns may reflect anomalies related to fetal malformations such as spinal bifida (SB) or congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), which could shed light on novel pathomechanism determination and subsequent diagnostic significance evaluation. The aim of this study was to determine the miRNA maternal expression profile in plasma and amniotic fluid samples of women carrying fetuses with SB and CDH.

Project description:Congenital heart defects (CHD) are one of the most common defects in offspring of diabetic mothers. There is a clear association between maternal diabetes and CHD; however the underlying molecular mechanism remains unknown. We hypothesized that maternal diabetes affects with the expression of early developmental genes that regulate the essential developmental processes of the heart, thereby resulting in the pathogenesis of CHD. We analyzed genome-wide expression profiling in the developing heart of embryos from diabetic and control mice by using the oligonucleotide microarray. Microarray analysis revealed that a total of 878 genes exhibited more than 1.5 fold changes in expression level in the hearts of experimental embryos in either E13.5 or E15.5 compared with their respective controls. Expression pattern of genes that is differentially expressed in the developing heart was further examined by the real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. Several genes involved in a number of molecular signaling pathways such as apoptosis, proliferation, migration and differentiation in the developing heart were differentially expressed in embryos of diabetic pregnancy. It is concluded that altered expression of several genes involved in heart development may contribute to CHD in offspring of diabetic mothers.

Project description:The number of patients with diabetes is increasing worldwide. Diabetic testicular damage can cause spermiogenesis disorders and sexual dysfunction. We thus explored the role of miRNAs in diabetic testicular damage, and revealed that they could serve as effective prevention and treatment therapeutic targets.Streptozotocin (STZ) was used to generate a rat model of type 2 diabetes. Rat testicular tissues were used for miRNA sequencing. we identified 19 differentially expressed miRNAs in the testes of diabetic rats.

Project description:Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most prevalent structural malformations of the heart affecting ∼1% of live births. To date, both damaging genetic variations and adverse environmental exposure such as maternal diabetes have been found to cause CHD. Clinical studies show ∼fivefold higher risk of CHD in the offspring of mothers with pregestational diabetes. Maternal pregestational diabetes affects the gene regulatory networks key to proper cardiac development in the fetus. However, the cell-type specificity of these gene regulatory responses to maternal diabetes and their association with the observed cardiac defects in the fetuses remains unknown. To uncover the transcriptional responses to maternal diabetes in the early embryonic heart, we used an established murine model of pregestational diabetes. In this model, we have previously demonstrated an increased incidence of CHD. Here, we show maternal hyperglycemia (matHG) elicits diverse cellular responses during heart development by single-cell RNA-sequencing in embryonic hearts exposed to control and matHG environment. Through differential gene-expression and pseudotime trajectory analyses of this data, we identified changes in lineage specifying transcription factors, predominantly affecting Isl1+ second heart field progenitors and Tnnt2+cardiomyocytes with matHG. Using in vivo cell-lineage tracing studies, we confirmed that matHG exposure leads to impaired second heart field-derived cardiomyocyte differentiation. Finally, this work identifies matHG-mediated transcriptional determinants in cardiac cell lineages elevate CHD risk and show perturbations in Isl1-dependent gene-regulatory network (Isl1-GRN) affect cardiomyocyte differentiation. Functional analysis of this GRN in cardiac progenitor cells will provide further mechanistic insights into matHG-induced severity of CHD associated with diabetic pregnancies.
