Enhanced Branched-Chain Amino Acid Metabolism Improves 7 Age-Related Reproduction

ABSTRACT: Reproductive aging is one of the earliest human aging phenotypes, and mitochondrial dysfunction has been linked to a decline in oocyte quality. However, it is not known which mitochondrial metabolic processes are critical for oocyte quality maintenance with age. To understand how mitochondrial processes contribute to C. elegans oocyte quality, we characterized the mitochondrial proteomes of young and aged wild-type and long-reproductive daf-2 mutants. The mitochondrial proteomic profiles of young wild-type and daf-2 worms are similar and share upregulation of branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) metabolism pathway enzymes. Reduction of bcat-1 shortens reproduction, elevates mitochondrial ROS levels, and shifts mitochondrial localization. Moreover, bcat-1 knockdown decreases daf-2’s oocyte quality and reduces reproductive capability, indicating the importance of this pathway in the maintenance of oocyte quality with age. Importantly, we can delay oocyte quality deterioration and extend reproduction in wild-type animals both by bcat-1 overexpression and by supplementing with Vitamin B1, a cofactor needed for BCAA metabolism.

RNA sequencing analysis of DAF-16 target gene expression when math-33 function is genetically inactivated

Project description:In this study we have investigated the effect of loss of math-33 activity on DAF-16-mediated target gene regulation in C. elegans under conditions of reduced Insulin/IGF-1 signaling (IIS). Using whole nematode RNA sequencing experiments we found that the daf-2(e1370)-mediated induction and repression of DAF-16 target genes was decreased in daf-2(e1370); math-33(tm3561) mutant animals. Our data suggest that the downregulation of endogenous DAF-16 isoforms in the absence of a functional MATH-33 severely affects the global expression of DAF-16 targets when IIS activity is reduced. Therefore, MATH-33 is essential for DAF-16-mediated target gene activation and repression in the context of IIS. DAF-16 mediated target gene regulation was analyzed in daf-2(e1370) nematodes and compared to daf-2(e1370); math-33(tm3561) mutant animals. daf-16(mu86); daf-2(e1370); N2 (wild type) and math-33(tm3561) single mutant animals were used as controls.

Mitochondrial DNA quantity Counteracts ROS damage in oocytes during female reproductive aging

Project description:We investigated the contentious role of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) quality and quantity in female reproductive aging. By conditionally knocking out the Sod2 gene in female mouse germline, we observed increased mitochondrial ROS and decreased oocyte quality, primarily due to impacts on OXPHOS complex II and mtDNA encoded mRNA levels. Interestingly, we found no increased mtDNA mutations, but alterations in mtDNA quantity, indicating the susceptibility of mtDNA to the mitochondrial ROS during reproductive aging. Notably, when we further decreased the basal level of mtDNA quantity by deactivating the mtSSB protein in Sod2 conditional knockout females, we observed an exacerbation of reproductive aging effects. This highlights the crucial role of mtDNA quantity in mitigating the impact of oxidative stress on fertility.

TGF-beta Sma/Mab signaling regulates a set of genes in oocytes associated with reproductive aging and another set in L4 associated with body size growth

Project description:Reproductive cessation is perhaps the earliest aging phenotypes humans experience. Similarly, C. elegans' reproduction ceases in mid-adulthood. Although somatic aging has been studied in both worms and humans, mechanisms regulating reproductive aging are not yet understood. Here we show that TGF-beta Sma/Mab activity regulates reproductive aging transcriptionally separable from its regulation of body size growth. This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE23446: Reproductive aging: sma-2;fem-1 day 8 oocyte vs fem-1 day 8 oocyte GSE23447: Reproductive aging: fem-1 day 3 oocyte vs fem-1 day 8 oocyte GSE23448: Body size regulation and TGF-beta Sma/Mab pathway: sma L4 vs N2 L4 Refer to individual Series

Polyamine metabolite spermidine rejuvenates the oocyte quality by enhancing mitophagy during female reproductive aging

Project description:Advanced age is a primary risk factor for female infertility due to reduced ovarian reserve and declining oocyte quality. However, as an important contributing factor, the role of metabolic regulation during reproductive aging is poorly understood. Here, we applied untargeted metabolomics to identify spermidine as a critical metabolite in ovaries to protect oocytes against aging. In particular, we found that spermidine level was reduced in aged ovaries and supplementation of spermidine promoted follicle development, oocyte maturation, early embryonic development and female fertility of aged mice. By micro-transcriptomic analysis, we further discovered that recovery of oocyte quality by spermidine was mediated by enhancement of mitophagy activity and mitochondrial function in aged mice, and this action mechanism was conserved in porcine oocytes under oxidative stress. Altogether, our findings demonstrate that spermidine supplementation is a potentially effective strategy to ameliorate oocyte quality and reproductive outcome of women at an advanced age.

Post-implantation developmental defects induced by mtDNA mutation derive from altered DNA methylome in oocytes

Project description:Accumulating evidences suggest a link between mitochondrial dysfunction and female reproduction decline. To directly and systematically figure out the influence of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutation on oocyte quality and embryo development, we used an mtDNA mutator mouse model (D257A) that harbors a proofreading-deficient version of PolgA. Here we showed that D257A mice developed a profound reduction of fertility at 19-week of age, and accumulated twofold more increase in the levels of point mutations in oocyte mtDNA. Following ovarian hyper-stimulation, we found oocyte numbers retrieved from WT and D257A mice were comparable until 19 weeks of age, while with a half reduced number of oocyte ovulated in D257A mice thereafter. We further found the oocyte quality based on mitochondrial distribution, meiotic spindle assembly, chromosomal segregation and ATP content at 19 weeks of age was identical in both group. Meanwhile, the ovulated oocytes can initiate and sustain early embryo development after in vitro fertilization, and reach the blastocyst stage with no obvious defects compared to WTs. Of note, post-implantation developmental defects were observed in D257A embryos, as revealed by fetal growth retardation and decreased ratios of pups delivered. Furthermore, genome-wide methylation analysis revealed global hypomethylation across the genome of D257A oocytes, with a dramatic reduce in genome repetitive-elements, like DNA transposon, LINEs and SINEs regions. In conclusion, our study presents the direct experimental investigation of the effect of mtDNA mutation on oocyte and embryo competence, and demonstrates altered DNA methylation in oocyte may represent a critical mechanism that mediates the phenotypic defects of mtDNA mutation in post-implantation development.

Transcriptome analysis of rhesus monkey MII oocytes

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.
