Project description:Increasing evidence indicates that paternal dietary conditions influence the metabolic disorders of offspring. Previous studies suggested the involvement of epigenetic regulation for such phenomena, but the mechanism remains elusive. To reveal the molecular function of stress-dependent epigenetic regulator ATF7 in paternal inheritance of dietry effect on offpring phenotype, we analyzed ATF7-binding profiles in testicular germ cells by ChIP-seq, DNA methylation profiles in sperm by TGBS, small RNA expression profiles in HRCS by RNA-seq,and whole expression profiles in offspring liver by expression array analysis, using wild-type and ATF7 heterozygous mutant mice fed with control diet or low-protein diet.

We performed expression array analysis to identidy genes which expressions are affected by paternal diet and ATF7 mutation.

Project description:Transgenerational epigenetic inheritance (TEI) describes the transmission of gene-regulatory information across generations without altering DNA sequences. TEI allows priming of offspring towards changing environmental conditions and plays a role in the maintenance of gene silencing of selfish genetic elements like transposons. Small regulatory RNAs are well known to act in TEI, and can be transmitted via the male. Such inheritance via sperm requires dedicated mechanisms, as much of the cellular content is extruded during spermatogenesis. We identify a phase separation-based mechanism, which couples the paternal inheritance of a specific small RNA-bound silencing factor via S-palmitoylation to the transport of membranous organelles. Our findings uncover a thus far unknown paternal TEI mechanism, and describe a novel mode of transport of phase-separated condensates.

Project description:RNA-seq transcriptome analysis of C. elegans germlines that inherited only paternal chromosomes (non-Mendelian inheritance, 'red-head worms') and the germlines of their offspring ('offspring of red-head worms') vs. germlines that inherited both maternal and paternal chromosomes (Mendelian inheritance, HBR1280 control). Given that epigenetic marking of sperm chromosomes is faithfully transmitted through embryo cell divisions, and that sperm epigenetic marking is important in offspring, we tested if sperm epigenetic marking alone is sufficient for proper development of the germline in offspring. We utilized a mutant that, during the first embryonic division, delivers the sperm genome to the daughter cell that generates the germline and the oocyte genome to the other daughter cell (Besseling & Bringmann, 2016). This mutant over-expresses GPR-1, a protein involved in regulation of kinetochore pulling forces. GPR-1 over-expression results in excessive pulling forces, causing the paternal and maternal pronuclei to inappropriately move to opposite poles of the 1-cell embryo instead of merging in the center of the embryo. In this mutant background, ~60% of offspring undergo atypical chromosome segregation, generating mosaic embryos whose germlines are derived entirely from sperm chromosomes (Besseling & Bringmann, 2016). To track the parental genomes, differentially tagged histone transgenes were used: a GFP-tagged histone H2B encoded in the sperm genome, and a TdTomato-tagged histone H2B encoded in the oocyte genome. The mosaic embryos whose germline inherited only sperm chromosomes (‘red-head' worms) develop into fertile adults with a normal brood size, similar to control worms, in which the germline inherited both sperm and oocyte chromosomes. RNA-seq analysis demonstrated that the germline transcriptome of ‘red-head’ worms and their offspring show few (<80 genes) and minor changes compared to control worms. These findings demonstrate that epigenetic information provided by sperm can guide proper germ cell development.

Project description:Parental environmental exposures can strongly influence descendant risks for adult disease. Metabolic disorders arise from the intersection of environmental and genetic risk factors, with epigenetic inheritance being at the center of the familial cycle of transgenerational disease. How paternal high-fat diet changes the sperm chromatin leading to the acquisition of metabolic disease in offspring remains controversial and ill-defined. Using a genetic model of epigenetic inheritance, we investigated the role of histone H3 lysine 4 methylation (H3K4me3) in the paternal transmission of metabolic dysfunction. We show that obesity-induced alterations in sperm H3K4me3 associated with offspring phenotypes and corresponded to embryonic and placental chromatin profiles and gene expression. Transgenerational susceptibility to metabolic disease was only observed when grandsires had a pre-existing genetic predisposition to metabolic dysfunction that was associated with enhanced alterations to sperm H3K4me3. This non-DNA based knowledge of inheritance has the potential to improve our understanding of how environment shapes heritability and may lead to novel routes for the prevention of disease.

Project description:Background: Defining the mechanisms that establish and regulate the transmission of epigenetic information from parent to offspring is critical for understanding disease heredity. Currently, the molecular pathways that regulate epigenetic information in the germline and its transmission to offspring are poorly understood. Results: Here we provide evidence that Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) regulates paternal inheritance, both at the phenotypic and molecular levels. Reduced PRC2 function in mice resulted in male sub-fertility and altered epigenetic and transcriptional control of retrotransposed elements in fetal male germ cells. Males with reduced PRC2 function produced offspring that over-expressed retrotransposed pseudogenes and had altered preimplantation embryo cleavage rates and cell cycle control. Conclusion: This study reveals a novel role for the histone modifying complex, PRC2, in epigenetic inheritance, with important implications for understanding disease inheritance.

Project description:<p>The gut microbiota operates at the interface of host-environment interactions to influence human homeostasis and metabolic networks. Environmental factors that unbalance gut microbial ecosystems can therefore elicit physiological and disease-associated responses across somatic tissues. However, the systemic impact of the gut microbiome on the germline - and consequently on the F1 offspring it gives rise to - is unexplored. Here we show that the gut microbiota act as a key interface between paternal preconception environment and intergenerational health in mice. Perturbations to the gut microbiota of prospective fathers increase the probability of their offspring presenting with low birth weight, severe growth restriction and premature mortality. Transmission of disease risk occurs via the germline and is provoked by pervasive gut microbiome perturbations, including non-absorbable antibiotics or osmotic laxatives, but is rescued by restoring the paternal microbiota before conception. This effect is linked with a dynamic response to induced dysbiosis in the male reproductive system, including impaired leptin signalling, altered testicular metabolite profiles and remapped small RNA payloads in sperm. As a result, dysbiotic fathers trigger an elevated risk of in utero placental insufficiency, revealing a placental origin of mammalian intergenerational effects. Our study defines a regulatory ‘gut-germline axis’ in males, which is sensitive to environmental exposures and programs offspring fitness through impacting placental function.</p>
