Project description:Fetal wounds repair by regeneration rather than wound healing and the environment is dominated by amniotic fluid. We are looking at early transcriptional regulation of keratinocytes cultured in amniotic fluid in vitro. Keratinocytes were isolated and expanded to passage three after which they were starved in DMEM for 12h then cultured for 24h in human amniotic fluid (50%), fcs (50%) or DMEM alone for another 24h. N=2, pooled replicates per CEL-file.

Project description:Amniotic fluid has been proposed as an easily available source of cells for numerous applications in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. The use of amniotic fluid cells in biomedical applications necessitates their unequivocal characterization; however, the exact cellular composition of amniotic fluid and the precise tissue origins of these cells remain largely unclear. Using cells cultured from human amniotic fluid of the second trimester from a healthy fetus and fetuses with spina bifida aperta, we have performed single-cell RNA sequencing to characterize the tissue origin and marker expression of cultured amniotic fluid cells at the single-cell level. Our analysis identified nine different cell types of stromal, epithelial and immune cell phenotype, and from various fetal tissue origins, demonstrating the heterogeneity of the cultured amniotic fluid cell population at single-cell resolution. Further, our data question the presence of pluripotent stem cell populations in cultured AF, and provide a comprehensive list of markers for the characterization of its various progenitor and terminally differentiated cell types. Our study highlights the relevance of single-cell analysis approaches for the characterization of amniotic fluid cells in order to harness their full potential in biomedical research and clinical applications.

Project description:The objective of this study was to identify the tissue expression patterns and biological pathways enriched in term amniotic fluid cell-free fetal RNA by comparing functional genomic analyses of term and second-trimester amniotic fluid supernatants. There were 2,871 significantly differentially regulated genes. In term amniotic fluid, tissue expression analysis showed enrichment of salivary gland, tracheal, and renal transcripts as compared with brain and embryonic neural cells in the second trimester. Functional analysis of genes upregulated at term revealed pathways that were highly specific for postnatal adaptation such as immune function, digestion, respiration, carbohydrate metabolism, and adipogenesis. Inflammation and prostaglandin synthesis, two key processes involved in normal labor, were also activated in term amniotic fluid. This was a prospective whole genome microarray study comparing eight amniotic fluid samples collected from eight women at term who underwent prelabor cesarean delivery and eight second-trimester amniotic fluid samples from routine amniocenteses. A functional annotation tool was used to compare tissue expression patterns in term and second-trimester samples. Pathways analysis software identified physiologic systems, molecular and cellular functions, and upstream regulators that were significantly overrepresented in term amniotic fluid.

Project description:Amniotic fluid is critical for the development of foetus, which provides the appropriate conditions for foetus growth. Besides its presumed traditional roles of providing movement place and protecting from crushing, amniotic fluid is considered to have more important roles in the nervous development of foetus respecting nervous related compositions and close contact with the skin of foetus. Peripheral nervous sensory system is the feeling basis for the body with neuritis anchoring on the surface of skin. The effect of amniotic fluid on the development of peripheral sensory nervous system is unknown. To disclose the relationship between amniotic fluid and peripheral sensory nervous system, we profiled microRNAs dynamic expression in amniotic fluid during the stages of E13, E15 and E17. The cluster analysis results showed that there were significantly two different expression profiles of microRNAs during this development stage. The followed informatics analysis results showed that these two groups of microRNAs synergistically regulate the axon guidance process. Axon tracing by fluorogold and co-labelled immunofluorescence results indicated that there was a direct interaction between amniotic fluid and peripheral sensory nervous system in axon guidance. Taken together, our work is helpful to understand the development of peripheral sensory nervous system of foetus.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate transcription factors and relate to ventricular septal defect (VSD) occurrence, progression and outcome. Recently, circulating miRNAs from maternal blood and amniotic fluid have been used as biomarkers for congenital heart defect (CHD) diagnosis. However, whether circulating miRNAs are associated with foetal heart tissue remains unknown. Dimethadione (DMO) induced a VSD rat model and the miRNA expression profiles of the myocardium, amniotic fluid and maternal serum were analysed. MiRNAs were differentially expressed in the myocardium, amniotic fluid or maternal serum of VSD foetal rats and might be involved in cardiomyocyte differentiation and apoptosis.
