Project description:Transcriptomes of stage 2 Drosophila embryos, from mothers with different food conditions during the larval stage
2018-06-01 | GSE106308 | GEO
Project description:Embryonic development begins under the control of maternal gene products, mRNAs and proteins that the mother deposits into the egg; the zygotic genome is activated some time later. Maternal control of early development is conserved across metazoans. Gene products contributed by mothers are critical to many early developmental processes, and set up trajectories for the rest of development. Maternal deposition of these factors is an often-overlooked aspect of parental investment. If the mother experiences challenging environmental conditions, such as poor nutrition, previous studies in Drosophila melanogaster have demonstrated a plastic response wherein these mothers may produce larger eggs to buffer the offspring against the same difficult environment. This additional investment can produce offspring that are more fit in the challenging environment. With this study, we ask whether D. melanogaster mothers who experience poor nutrition during their own development change their gene product contribution to the egg. We perform mRNA-Seq on eggs at a stage where all mRNAs are maternally derived, from mothers with different degrees of nutritional limitation. We find that nutritional limitation produces similar transcript changes at all degrees of limitation tested. Genes that have lower transcript abundance in nutritionally limited mothers are those involved in translation, which is likely one of the most energetically costly processes occurring in the early embryo. We find an increase in transcripts for transport and localization of macromolecules, and for the electron transport chain. The eggs produced by nutrition-limited mothers show a plastic response in mRNA deposition, which may better prepare the future embryo for development in a nutrition-limited environment.

Project description:There is a growing body of evidence that inadequate maternal nutrition during gestation can have immediate and life-long effects on offspring. However, little is known about the reproductive effects of maternal gestational nutrition in offspring males. Here, using a sheep model of poor maternal nutrition (restricted- or over-feeding) during gestation, we found that poor maternal gestational nutrition does not affect semen characteristics (i.e. volume, sperm concentration, pH, sperm motility, sperm morphology) and scrotal circumference in offspring. However, by evaluating associations between poor maternal gestational nutrition and altered small non-cording RNAs (sncRNAs) and DNA methylation in offspring sperm, we demonstrated that poor maternal gestational nutrition alters sperm sncRNA composition and expression. Whole genome bisulfite sequencing further identified genomic regions with increased or decreased DNA methylation in sperm in response to poor maternal gestational nutrition. These findings imply that maternal diet-induced epigenetic errors can accumulate in sperm to worsen developmental outcomes of future generations.

Project description:The aim was to profile the gene expression responses of males to divergent selection on larval diets, using two different dietary regimes (sucrose-based ASG 'A' diet, versus starch-based Starch 'S' diet). 3 x replicated populations of medfly originating from the same base strain were set up on each of these two regimes (adult nutrition was standardised) and maintained. At generation 62, the flies were subjected to two generations of rearing on a glucose common garden diet (to standardise rearing to minimise proximate nutritional effects and minimise maternal carry over). Adult males reared under these standardised conditions were then snap frozen at 7 days post eclosion. The head-thorax and abdomen body parts of these males were then subjected to mRNA-seq. The overall aim was to describe the evolved differences in gene expression associated with the divergent larval diets.

Project description:Multiple mechanisms likely contribute to the increase in chromosome missegregation that leads to production of aneuploid eggs and fetuses at advanced maternal age. It is therefore considered unlikely that a single approach could prevent age-related egg aneuploidy. Here we show using three independent approaches that ovulation reduction is sufficient to prevent egg aneuploidy in aged mammals. To gain insights into the mechanism underlying the rescue in egg aneuploidy, we show that ovulation suppression correlates with retention of chromosomal Rec8-cohesin, implying that ovulations are linked to cohesin deterioration. Moreover, we discovered that ageing alters 3D chromatin organization by single-nucleus Hi-C (snHi-C). Extruded loops increase in size with age and this is retarded by ovulation reduction. We conclude that reducing ovulations leads to retention of chromosomal Rec8, which maintains interphase chromatin structure and promotes chromosome segregation and production of euploid eggs. Importantly, our data suggest that ovulation itself contributes to the maternal age effect. This work provides the first experimental evidence that progesterone treatment reduces egg aneuploidy and suggests that hormonal contraception can reduce the risk of trisomic pregnancies like Down’s syndrome at advanced maternal age.

Project description:We hypothesized that poor maternal nutrition during gestation would reduce the growth and development of offspring muscle prenatally, reduce the number of myogenic progenitor cells, and result in changes in the global expression of genes involved in prenatal muscle development and function. Ewes were fed a control (100% NRC)-, restricted (60% NRC),- or over-fed (140% NRC) diet beginning at day 30 of gestation until day 45, 90, and 135 of gestation or until parturition. In offspring, we report altered secondary: primary muscle fiber ratios and percent PAX7 positive cells during fetal development. In addition, changes in muscle mRNA expression were observed between maternal dietary treatments and over timepoints during gestation. In conclusion, poor maternal nutrition during gestation contributes to altered offspring muscle growth during early fetal development which persists throughout the fetal stage.

Project description:Intra-uterine growth restriction (IUGR) and fetal overgrowth increase the risk of postnatal health. Maternal nutrition is the major intrauterine environmental factor that alters fetal weight. However, the mechanisms underlying maternal nutrition affect fetal development is not entirely clear. We developed a pig model and used isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) to investigate alterations in the placental proteome were obtained from gilts in normal-energy-intake (Con) and high-energy-intake (HE) group, respectively.At 90 d of gestation, the heavy fetuses were found at the tubal ends and light fetuses at the cervical ends of the uterus in Con group and the heavy fetuses had higher glucose concentration than the light fetuses. However, a higher uniformity was noted in HE group. Placental promote between these two positions indicated that a total of 78 and 50 differentially expressed proteins were detected in Con and HE group, respectively. In Con group, these proteins related to lipid metabolism (HADHA, AACS, CAD), nutrient transport (GLUT, SLC27A1) and energy metabolism (NDUFV1, NDUFV2, ATP5C1). However, the differentially expressed proteins in HE group were mainly participation in transcriptional and translational regulation and intracellular vesicular transport.
