Project description:Proteomic investigations of spermatozoa provide practical tools for distinguishing normal, functional spermatozoa from abnormal spermatozoa. Indeed, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) coupled with mass spectrometry (MS) applies high-throughput industrial applications to identify sperm-specific proteins indicative of chemical exposure. As such, a direct comparison of protein expression profiles between control and exposed cells returned a set of protein markers. Because mature mammalian spermatozoa are virtually incapable of protein synthesis, the predicted protein biomarkers in spermatozoa offer considerable stability for use in clinical application. In the current study, we applied 2-DE coupled with ESI-MS/MS to investigate the modified protein profile in F1 capacitated spermatozoa due to gestational bisphenol-A (BPA) exposure to ascertain whether these proteomic modifications could explain the observed functional alterations in spermatozoa.

Project description:Epigenetic mechanisms including DNA methylation, non-coding RNAs and histone modifications control gene expression. Studies suggest that a father's lifetime experiences can be transmitted to his offspring to affect development and health. The mechanisms underlying such epigenetic inheritance are unknown. A potential route for paternal transmission is the unique chromatin composition of spermatozoa. Unlike somatic cells and oocytes, most nucleosomes in sperm are replaced with protamine nucleoproteins. The role of residual nucleosomes, residing at gene regulatory sequences, for epigenetic control of embryonic development is unknown. Here we generated a transgenic mouse model in which over-expression of the histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) demethylase LSD1/KDM1A during spermatogenesis alters H3K4 methylation in sperm. Strikingly, KDM1A over-expression in one generation causes severe embryonic defects in non-transgenic descendants spanning three subsequent generations. We show for the first time that correct histone methylation homeostasis during spermatogenesis is critical for offspring development and survival over multiple generations. Identification of H3K4me2 and nucleosome occupancies in sperm of wildtype mice, KDM1A transgenic mice and their non-transgenic littermates.

Project description:Nucleosomes are the principal packaging units of chromatin and critical for gene regulation and genome stability. In mammals, a subset of nucleosomes fail to be replaced by protamines during spermatogenesis and are retained in mature spermatozoa providing opportunities for paternal epigenetic transmission. In humans, the remaining 10% localize at regulatory elements of genes. To assess evolutionary conservation and to dissect the molecular logic underlying nucleosome retention, we determined the genome wide nucleosome occupancy in mouse spermatozoa that only contain 1% residual histones. In striking contrast to mammalian somatic cells and haploid round spermatids, we observe high enrichment of nucleosomes at CpG-rich sequences throughout the genome, at conserved regulatory sequences as well as at intra- and intergenic regions and repetitive DNA. This preferred occupancy occurs mutually exclusive with DNA methylation both in mouse and human sperm. At unmethylated CpG-rich sequences, residing nucleosomes are largely composed of the H3.3 histone variant, and trimethylated at lysine 4 (H3K4me3). Both canonical H3.1/H3.2 and H3.3 variant histones are present at promoters marked by Polycomb-mediated H3K27me3, which is strongly predictive for gene repression in pre-implantation embryos. Our data indicate important roles of DNA sequence composition, DNA methylation, variant H3.3 and canonical H3.1/H3.2 histones and associated modifications in nucleosome retention versus eviction during the histone-to-protamine remodeling process in elongating spermatids and potentially in epigenetic inheritance by nucleosomes between generations.

Project description:The problem of the male reproductive system has both medical and social importance. It is highlighted that spermatozoa or seminal plasma are suitable samples for proteomic analysis of the male reproductive system. We suggested that the ejaculate could serve as one of the analytic specimens to determine fertility, which obtainable with relative ease and which contains many proteins. Moreover, the testis-specific proteins could form the basis of protein panel for detecting disorders associated with male infertility. The current study aimed to examine the ejaculate proteome compared to the spermatozoa and seminal plasma proteomes to determine a panel of proteins that can be used to assess sperm quality. Our results showed that the ejaculate represented a productive source for understanding the male reproductive physiology and could serve as a potential origin for the identification of novel protein biomarkers related to spermatozoa function in infertile. We believe that proteomic analysis based on testis-specific proteins of ejaculate along with spermatozoa (or even instead) can be useful for distinguishing the fertile, sub fertile, and infertile men.

Project description:The aim of this study was to achieve a higher resolution of the human sperm proteome for better understanding of the molecular causes of male infertility. For this purpose, we examined the proteomic profiles of sperm from 76 men for proteins with deregulated abundances. Infertile men had abnormal semen parameters and were involuntarily childless. Men in the cohort with normal fertility had normozoospermia and had fathered children without medical assistance. Mass spectrometry analysis led to an in-depth reconstruction of the human sperm proteome. The corresponding genes were mainly involved in cellular motility, response to stimuli, adhesion, and reproduction. We also observed increasing numbers of at least three-fold differentially abundant sperm proteins from oligozoospermia and oligoasthenozoospermia to oligoasthenoteratozoospermia, compared with normozoospermia. Primarily, flagellar assembly and sperm motility, sperm-egg interaction, and male gametogenesis were affected. This suggests that sperm of infertile men carry signatures of impaired sperm production and are functionally impaired. Not least, we present new male infertility markers in addition to established ones.

Project description:Malnad Gidda is one among the 43 registered cattle breeds of India with unique traits and spread over Western Ghats and coastal regions of Karnataka state in India. Selection of highly elite fertile bulls for the breeding purpose is a critical control point in animal breeding programmes. Therefore, to characterize the semen proteome and to understand the semen biology of this breed, a comprehensive proteomic analysis of spermatozoa and seminal plasma has been carried out by employing SCX and bRPLC fractionation strategies in a mass-spectrometry platform. The semen samples from three Malnad Gidda bulls maintained at Southern Regional Station of ICAR-NDRI under standard managemental conditions were used in the study. The proteomic characterisation of semen from Malnad Gidda breed resulted in the identification of 5, 84,520 PSMs, from 24,467 peptides from 2,815 proteins in spermatozoa and identification of 2, 77,583 PSMs from 12,047 peptides, which resulted in 1,974 proteins from seminal plasma. Out of 2,815 proteins in spermatozoa and 1,974 proteins from seminal plasma, 969 proteins were common to both seminal plasma and spermatozoa. The biological processes and cellular localization of spermatozoa proteins were studied using DAVID tool and were further enriched the identical GO terms using REVIGO online tool. The functional enrichment analysis of identified proteins indicated their roles in the biological processes like sperm motility, spermatid development, spermatogenesis, and so on. GO studies showed the commonalities and differences in the molecular functions of the proteins exclusively identified in spermatozoa, seminal plasma and common proteins. This is the first proteomic investigation conducted on the semen samples of an Indian indigenous breed; therefore, we believe that our preliminary data should significantly advance our understanding of semen proteome of Indian cattle.

Project description:Somatic mutation in the X-linked phosphatidylinositol glycan class A (PIG-A) gene causes glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor deficiency in humans with Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH). Clinically, patients with PNH have intravascular hemolysis, venous thrombosis and bone marrow failure. We produced a conditional Pig-a knock-out mouse model specifically inactivating the Pig-a gene in hematopoietic cells to study the role of PIG-A deficiency in PNH pathophysiology. We used Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 chips to investigate the gene expression pattern in the mouse model of targeted Pig-a deletion. Experiment Overall Design: We performed microarray analysis on 3 pools of sorted GPI-deficient (GPI-) and GPI normal (GPI+) bone marrow cells derived from the same Pig-a knock-out animals, and identified 1275/669 genes of the 45,101 transcripts potentially available for screening using 2-fold change, <10% false discovery rate (FDR) and percentage of present calls as selection criteria. The major representative genes belong to the category of immune response. We tested whether the molecular differences between GPI- and GPI+ bone marrow cells could be preserved when GPI- cells were transplanted in lethally-irradiated wild type mice (C57BL/6). Microarray analysis was performed using sorted bone marrow cells from 4 animals transplanted with GPI-deficient bone marrow cells (T-GPI-) from Pig-a knock-out donors, 3 animals transplanted with GPI-normal bone marrow cells from C57BL/6 donors (T-GPI+), and GPI-normal bone marrow cells from 4 wild-type C57BL/6 mice (WT-GPI+). We found 296 probesets with 2-fold change cutoff, of which T-GPI- cells had 145 up-regulated genes in comparison to WT-GPI+ cells, and had 123 genes differentially expressed when compared to T-GPI+ cells. The gene expression of the GPI-deficient cells was very similar between the two sets of microarray experiments affirming the maintenance of the phenotype before and after bone marrow cell transplantation.

Project description:The aims of the study were to improve sperm vitrification by using mitochondria-targeted antioxidants (Mito Q), reveal ultrastructural changes in spermatozoa due to the use of permeable cryoprotectants, and report alteration of functional proteins during the sperm vitrification process. For this, each of 20 swim-up-prepared ejaculates was divided into four groups : control, treatment 1, 2 and 3. We performed label-free quantitative proteomics and identified 1759 proteins, of which 68, 60, 90, and 81 proteins were altered in Treatment 1 (0.02µM Mito Q), Treatment 2 (1 % glycerol), and Treatment 3 (Mito-Glycerol groups) respectively compared to control (Fresh sperm). In particular, actin proteins were not affected during sperm vitrification but few actin-associated proteins were altered during the vitrification process. Interestingly, tubulins and outer dense fiber proteins were not affected during the vitrification process. Some of the identified ubiquitinating enzymes were affected during sperm vitrification but deubiquitinating enzymes were not affected during the vitrification process. Several proteins were identified for phosphorylation and dephosphorylation but only a few are altered during the sperm vitrification process. Interestingly, twenty-seven heat shock proteins were identified but only one is altered in the control. Similarly, several candidate proteins involved in sperm-egg fusion and fertilization (IZUMO1, Tektin, etc) were identified but not affected during the vitrification process. In conclusion, we demonstrated that MitoQ attenuates vitrification-induced ultrastructural changes and alteration in key proteins involved in sperm functions and fertilization.
