Project description:The goal of this study was to identify mRNAs in spermatozoa that differ between idiopathic infertile men and proven-fertile men. The rationale is that there are many idiopathic infertile or subfertile men, and that semen parameters cannot reliably distinguish idopathic infertile men from fertile men. Spermatozoa contain thousands of RNAs, and the levels of those RNAs may reflect the extent of normal spermatogenesis and sperm maturation. We hypothesized that we could identify differences between two patient populations that would reflect their clinical fertility status.

Project description:Small noncoding RNAs (sncRNA) are becoming recognized for their participation in a diverse range of cellular functions. In this study, their global characterization in human spermatozoa from donors with proven fertility was undertaken. Reads were analyzed in two classes, those mapping to unique locations and those that could be aligned to up to 10 genomic locations. All libraries showed comparable distribution of reads between intergenic, intronic and exonic genomic regions. Analysis of the sequences revealed the presence of multiple small RNA classes. The miRNAs retained in spermatozoa were found to be associated with promoter regions, suggestive of a role at the transcriptional level. Piwi-interacting sncRNAs as well as repeat-associated small RNAs were identified for the first time in mature spermatozoa from a mammalian species. Human spermatozoa retain a multifaceted population of small non-coding RNAs. Their presence is consistent with the view that they may function to stabilize the genome as part of the confrontation and consolidation of the genomes at fertilization.

Project description:Accumulated evidence proves that mature spermatozoa contain a complex yet specific mRNA, which could provide information of the past events of spermatogenesis. Our aim was to quantitatively microdissect these mRNA transcripts by a digital approach. SAGE was used to study the mRNA transcripts from ejaculate of an individual and of a pool of 10 fertile men. SAGE library from individual produced 20237 raw tags representing 2459 unique tags (those tags that show at least twice in the library), and that from pooled 10 men generated 21052 raw tags representing 2712 unique tags. The SAGE view of ejaculate of fertile men has revealed a large number of transcripts, which occur in steady frequencies and probably have important implications in the spermatogenesis and fertilization.

Project description:Low-grade, chronic inflammation during ageing (“inflammageing”) is suggested to be involved in the development of frailty in older age. However, studies on the association between frailty, using the frailty index definition, and inflammatory markers are limited. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between inflammatory markers and frailty index (FI) in older, home-dwelling adults. Home-dwelling men and women aged ≥ 70 years old, living in South-East Norway were recruited and included in a cross-sectional study. The FI used in the current study was developed according to Rockwood’s frailty index and included 38 variables, resulting in an FI score between 0 and 1 for each participant. Circulating inflammatory markers (IL-6, CRP, IGF-1, cystatin C, cathepsin S, and glycoprotein Acetyls) were analyzed from non-fasting blood samples using ELISA. Whole-genome PBMC transcriptomics was used to study the association between FI score and inflammation. The present study was a cross-sectional study that included home-dwelling men and women aged ≥ 70 years old, living in the Skedsmo area, South-East Norway. The study was conducted in 2014/2015 and has been described previously [Ottestad I, Ulven SM, Øyri LKL, Sandvei KS, Gjevestad GO, Bye A, et al. Reduced plasma concentration of branched-chain amino acids in sarcopenic older subjects: a cross-sectional study. Br J Nutr. 2018;120(4):445-53]. The participants were recruited by the National Register and received an invitation letter by mail. Briefly, a total of 2820 subjects were invited, and 437 subjects participated in the study. The participants met for a single study visit, and data was collected on dietary intake, body weight and composition, physical performance, medical history, cognitive function, risk of malnutrition, anthropometric measurements, blood pressure, heart rate, and quality of life. Non-fasting blood samples were also collected.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in nearly every biological process examined to date. Mounting evidence show that some spermatozoa specific miRNAs play important roles in the regulation of spermatogenesis and germ cells development, but little is known of the exact identity and function of miRNA in sperm cells or their potential involvement in spermatogenesis and germ cells development. Here, we investigated the spermatozoa miRNA profiles using illumina deep sequencing combined with bioinformatic analysis using zebrafish as a model system. Deep sequencing of small RNAs yielded 12 million raw reads from zebrafish spermatozoa. Analysis showed that the noncoding RNA of the spermatozoa included tRNA, rRNA, snRNA, snoRNA and miRNA. By mapping to the zebrafish genome, we identified 400 novel and 204 conserved miRNAs which could be grouped into 104 families, including zebrafish specific families, such as mir-731, mir-724, mir-725, mir-729 and mir-2185. We report the first characterization of the miRNAs profiling in zebrafish spermatozoa. The obtained spermatozoa miRNAs profiling will serve as valuable resources to systematically study spermatogenesis in fish and vertebrate.

Project description:The aim of this study was to examine changes in the mRNA transcriptional profile of spermatozoa in Holstein-Friesian bulls. Spermatozoa from bulls divergent for feritlity status were used for this study with 10 High fertility bulls and 10 Low fertility bulls. RNA was extracted and subsequently subjected to miRNAseq analysis. 6 miRNA were identified as differentially expressed in the spermatozoa between bulls of high and low feritlity status.

Project description:The objective of the present study is to investigate if females have the ability to recognise X or Y chromosome bearing spermatozoa and present a different response to different spermatozoa. In order to investigate if females have the ability to recognise X or Y chromosome bearing spermatozoa and present a different response to different spermatozoa. Samples of semen were sorted for chromosomal sex by M-oM-,M-^Bow cytometric-sorting. Using laparoscopic insemination one oviduct was inseminated with X spermatozoa and the contralateral oviduct was inseminated with Y spermatozoa.This allowed us to obtain samples from the oviduct in contact with X sperm and Y sperm in the the contrlateral oviduct from the same sow. Oviduct pig samples were collected for RNA isolation and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Four biological replicates were performed (n= 4 sows) and a total of 8 arrays were used for microarrays study (4 arrays for oviduct samples in contact with X spermatozoa and 4 arrays for oviduct samples in contact with Y spermatozoa.
