Project description:Infertility is a growing global health concern affecting millions of couples worldwide. Both overweight and underweight individuals face reproductive issues, resulting in infertility. Due to small size and short life, mice are not necessarily suitable animal models for human infertility. While, pigs having large size, anatomical and physiological similarities with human are considered as more ideal animal model of human disease. Leptin is a well-known adipokine that serves as an endocrine signal between adiposity and fertility. However, the exact mechanisms underlying leptin's effects on reproductive function remain unclear. To shed light on this, our study focused on pigs genetically engineered to overexpress leptin. These leptin-overexpressing pigs exhibited several reproductive abnormalities, including reduced body weight and size, decreased back fat thickness, and displayed late onset of puberty, and irregular estrous behavior characterized by increased inter-estrous interval and more breeding attempts until pregnancy. This reproductive impairment in leptin pigs was followed by hormonal imbalances and altered steroidogenesis. Bulk RNA sequencing of the ovaries revealed neutrophilic infiltration followed by upregulation of inflammation related genes. To gain a deeper understanding of the cellular levels, we employed single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq), and found that leptin overexpression triggered immune response, suppressed follicle development and luteinization, imposing metabolism dysfunction and hormone imbalance in ovary. Further, trends of phenotypical infertility symptoms and endocrine changes in underweight female patients mirrored the alterations observed in our leptin pigs. These findings suggest that leptin-overexpressing pigs could serve as a valuable animal model for studying infertility and investigating potential therapeutic interventions.

Project description:Clinical treatment protocols for infertility with in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) provide a unique opportunity to assess the human vaginal microbiome in defined hormonal milieu. Herein, we have investigated the association of circulating ovarian-derived estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P4) concentrations to the vaginal microbiome. Thirty IVF-ET patients were enrolled in this study, after informed consent. Blood was drawn at four time points during the IVF-ET procedure. In addition, if a pregnancy resulted, blood was drawn at 4-to-6 weeks of gestation. The serum concentrations of E2 and P4 were measured. Vaginal swabs were obtained in different hormonal milieu. Two independent genome-based technologies (and the second assayed in two different ways) were employed to identify the vaginal microbes. The vaginal microbiome underwent a transition with a decrease in E2 (and/or a decrease in P4). Novel bacteria were found in the vagina of 33% of the women undergoing IVF-ET. Our approach has enabled the discovery of novel, previously unidentified bacterial species in the human vagina in different hormonal milieu. While the relationship of hormone concentration and vaginal microbes was found to be complex, the data support a shift in the microbiome of the human vagina during IVF-ET therapy using standard protocols. The data also set the foundation for further studies examining correlations between IVF-ET outcome and the vaginal microbiome within a larger study population.

Project description:Hybrid sterility is one of the earliest postzygotic isolating mechanisms to evolve between two recently diverged species. Uncovering the mechanisms of hybrid sterilitynot only provides insight into the origins of species but also potentially revealsnovel causes of intra-species infertility.Here we identify causes underlying hybrid infertilityofSchizosaccharomyces pombeand S. kambucha, two fission yeast species that are 99.5% identical at the nucleotide level.These yeasts mate to form viable diploids that efficiently complete meiosis. However,S. kambucha/S. pombe hybrids generate few viable gametes, most of which are either aneuploid or diploid.We find that chromosomal rearrangements and related recombination defectsare major causes of hybrid infertility. Surprisingly, using experiments in which we eliminate meiotic recombination, we find thatrecombination defects cannot completely explain the hybrid infertility. Instead, we find that a significant fraction of hybrid infertility is caused by the action of at least three distinct meiotic drive alleles, one on each S. kambucha chromosome,that M-bM-^@M-^\cheatM-bM-^@M-^] to be transmitted to more than half (up to 90%) of viable gametes.Two of these driving lociare linked by a chromosomal translocation and thus constitute a novel type of paired meiotic drive complex. We find that all three S. kambuchadrive loci independently contribute to hybrid infertility by causing nonrandom spore death. This study reveals how quickly multiple barriers to fertility can arise.In addition, it provides further support for models in which genetic conflicts, such as those caused by meiotic drive alleles, can drive speciation.

Project description:Oocyte maturation is vital to attain full competence required fertilization and embryogenesis. As a maternal effect factor, NLRP14 is preferentially expressed in mammalian oocytes and early embryos. Yet the role and molecular mechanism of NLRP14 in oocyte maturation and early embryogenesis is largely unknown. Whether NLRP14 deficiency accounts for human infertility with oocyte and embryo defects remains to be elucidated. Here, NLRP14 is identified essential for establishment of competent oocytes that can sustain early embryo development. Maternal deficiency of Nlrp14 results in sterility characterized by oocyte maturation defects and early embryo arrest. Nlrp14 ablation leads to compromised oocyte quality and developmental competence due to impaired oocyte cytoplasmic and nuclear maturation. Mechanistically, NLRP14 interacts with UHRF1 in oocyte cytoplasm to protect it from proteasome-dependent degradation, and perturbs maternal mRNA zygotic-decay and zygotic genome activation during maternal-zygotic transition. Furthermore, compound heterozygous pathogenic variants in NLRP14 gene are identified in infertile women with early embryonic arrest, which interrupt the NLRP14-UHRF1 interaction or UHRF1 protein expression. Our data uncover a vital role of NLRP14 as a new cytoplasmic-specific modulator of UHRF1 in oocyte meiotic maturation and early embryogenesis, which should provide new insights into risk prediction and genetic diagnosis for female infertility.

Project description:Granulosa cells are essential to the growth, development, and maturation of oocytes and follicles. In patients with EMs-related infertility, follicle maturation disorders, poor oocyte quality may be closely related to GCs in the follicle. However, the molecular biological mechanism of GCs in EMs-related infertility has not been reported. Therefore, we tried to explore the possible causes of EMs-related infertility through the study of ovarian GCs in patients with EMs-related infertility and tubal factor infertility.

Project description:The product of the Bmal1 locus is an essential component of the circadian clock that plays important roles in various aspects of reproductive biology,and when disrupted results in infertility. In an effort to establish the identity of the tissue specific clock that is responsible for this infertility, we used the steroidogenic factor-1 (Sf1) promoter to drive Cre-mediated recombination and genetically delete Bmal1 within cells of the reproductive axis. We show that Bmal1 within the reproductive axis of females is essential for normal fertility through its role in maintaining implantation, but is not required for normal estrous cycling. At the root of this biology appears to be a defect in the ovaries, including regulation of ovarian lipid biosynthetic or metabolic processes and their roles in maintaining progesterone synthesis. This conclusion is based upon three observations. First, that deletion of Bmal1 within the reproductive axis reducesleads to affected transcripts in steroidogenic pathways for the LH receptor , and lowers progesterone levels. Second, that progesterone supplementation of these conditional mutants rescues implantation. Third, transplantation of wild type ovaries into Bmal1 reproductive axis mutants rescues fertility. Our study demonstrates the significance of ovarian Bmal1 as an overriding influence in experimental models of infertility. A time series was performed in time-mated C57Bl/6J mice to identiy oscillating transcripts. During the peak and trough of the majority of transcripts (ZT0 and ZT12) samples from Bmal1fx/fx Sf1Cre mice and control litermates as well and global Bmal1 nulls were also analyzed. The tissue types (ovary, pituitary) are not comparable.
