Project description:The female reproductive tract is one of the major mucosal invasion site of HIV-1. This site has been neglected in previous HIV-1 vaccine studies. Immune responses in the female reproductive tract after systemic vaccination remain to be characterized. Using a modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) as a vaccine model, we characterized specific immune responses in all compartments of the female reproductive tract (FRT) of non-human primates after systemic vaccination. Memory T cells were preferentially found in the lower tract (vagina and cervix), whereas antigen-presenting cells and innate lymphoid cells were mainly located in the upper tract (uterus and fallopian tubes). This compartmentalisation of immune cells in the FRT was supported by transcriptomic analyses and correlation network. Polyfunctional MVA-specific CD8+ T cells were detected in the blood, lymph nodes, vagina, cervix, uterus and fallopian tubes. Anti-MVA IgG and IgA were detected in cervicovaginal fluid after a second vaccine dose. Systemic vaccination with an MVA vector thus elicits cellular and antibody responses in the female reproductive tract.

Project description:Reproductive traits that influence female remating and competitive fertilization rapidly evolve in response to sexual selection and sexual conflict. One such trait, observed across diverse animal taxa, is the formation of a structural plug inside the female reproductive tract, either during or shortly after mating. In Drosophila melanogaster, male seminal fluid forms a mating plug inside the female bursa, which has been demonstrated to influence sperm entry into storage and latency of female remating. Processing of the plug, including its eventual ejection from the female's reproductive tract, influences the competitive fertilization success of her mates and is mediated by female × male genotypic interactions. However, female contributions to plug formation and processing have received limited attention. Using developmental mutants that lack glandular female reproductive tract tissues, we reveal that these glandular tissues are essential for the mating plug to be ejected. We further use proteomics to demonstrate that female glandular proteins, and especially proteolytic enzymes, contribute to mating plug composition and that the absence of glands has a widespread impact of plug formation and composition. Together, these phenotypic and molecular data resolve molecular mechanisms of important postmating, intersexual interactions and cryptic female choice.

Project description:We compared gene expression in oviduct tissues between unmated (control) and mated hen. As spermatozoa are foreign to the female reproductive tract therefore we were interested to look at how spermatozoa survive in the female reproductive tract and keep their fertilization potentiality. To check that we collected tissues from oviduct of both control and mated female chicken and compared if sperm deposition to the oviduct made any gene expression shift related to sperm survival.

Project description:Male-derived accessory gland proteins (Acps) that are transferred to females during mating have profound effects on female reproductive physiology including increased ovulation, mating inhibition, and effects on sperm utilization and storage. The extreme rates of evolution seen in Acps may be driven by sperm competition and sexual conflict, processes which may ultimately drive complex interactions between female- and male-derived molecules and sperm. However, little is known of how gene expression in female reproductive tissues changes in response to the presence of male molecules and sperm. To characterize this response, we conducted parallel genomic and proteomic analyses of gene expression in the reproductive tract of 3-day-old unmated and mated female Drosophila melanogaster. Using DNA microarrays, we identified 539 transcripts that are differentially expressed in unmated vs. mated females and revealed a striking peak in differential expression at 6 hrs postmating and a marked shift from primarily down-regulated to primarily up-regulated transcripts within 3 hrs after mating. Combining two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and liquid chromatography mass spectrometry analyses, we identified 84 differentially expressed proteins at 3 hrs postmating, including proteins which appeared to undergo post-translational modification. Together, our observations define transcriptional and translational response to mating within the female reproductive tract and suggest a bimodal model of postmating gene expression initially correlated with mating and the final stages of female reproductive tract maturation and later with the declining presence of male reproductive molecules and with sperm maintenance and utilization.

Project description:Precursors for the male and female reproductive tracts (also known as the Wolffian duct and the Müllerian duct) co-exist in a mammalian embryo before sexual differentiation. The Wolffian duct and Müllerian duct are surrounded by their own mesenchymes in the mesonephros, which can be distinguished by their specific expression of Gli1 and Amhr2, respectively. In the XX embryo, during sexual differentiation, the Wolffian duct degenerates. In this study, by tracking the fate of the Gli1+ Wolffian duct mesenchyme in the tamoxifen inducible genetic lineage tracing model Gli1-CreER; Rosa-Tomato, we demonstrate that the Wolffian duct mesenchyme does not regress along with the Wolffian duct epithelium in the XX embryo. Instead, the Wolffian duct mesenchyme is repurposed and becomes a unique mesenchymal population in the female reproductive tract. Profiling the transcriptomes and chromatin accessibilities of the Gli1+ Wolffian duct mesenchyme in XX and XY during sexual differentiation (E14.5 and E16.5) shows signaling pathways and transcriptional factors that potentially involves the female and male fate differentiation of the Gli1+ Wolffian duct mesenchyme. Comparing the transcriptomes between the Gli1+ Wolffian duct mesenchyme and the Amhr2+ Müllerian duct mesenchyme from the neonatal uterus reveals similarities and differences between the two mesenchymal populations in the female reproductive tract. Ex vivo ablation of the Wolffian duct mesenchyme stunted the growth of the fetal female reproductive tract. In summary, our discovery of the contribution of the Wolffian duct mesenchyme to the female reproductive tract provides new insights into our understanding of sexual differentiation of reproductive tracts.
