Project description:Most high-yielding dairy cows enter a state of negative energy balance (NEB) during early lactation. This, in turn, results in changes in the level of various metabolites in the blood and follicular fluid microenvironment which contributes to disturbed fertility. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are evolutionarily conserved communicasomes that transport cargo of miRNA, proteins and lipids. EV-coupled miRNAs have been reported in follicular fluid. However, the association between postpartum NEB and EV-coupled miRNA signatures in follicular fluid is not yet known. Energy balance analysis in lactating cows shortly after post-calving revealed that the majority of the cows exhibited transiently negative energy balance levels, whereas the remaining cows exhibited either consistently negative or consistently positive energy levels. Metabolic status was associated with EV-coupled miRNA composition in the follicular fluid. Cows experiencing NEB showed reduced expression of a large number of miRNAs while cows with positive energy balances primarily exhibited elevated expression of EV-coupled miRNAs. The miRNAs that were suppressed under NEB were found to be involved in various metabolic pathways. This is the first study to reveal the presence of an association between EV-coupled miRNA in follicular fluid and metabolic stress in dairy cows. The involvement of differentially expressed miRNAs in various pathways associated with follicular growth and oocyte maturation suggest the potential involvement of specific follicular miRNAs in oocyte developmental competence, which may partially explain reduced fertility in cows due to post-calving metabolic stress.

Project description:Elevated ambient temperature during the summer season is a main cause of stress in dairy and beef cows, leading to impaired reproductive function and fertility. Follicular fluid extracellular vesicles (FF-EVs) play an important role in intrafollicular cellular communication by in part mediating the deleterious effects of heat stress (HS). Here we aimed to investigate the changes in FF-EV miRNA cargoes in beef cows in response to HS during the summer (SUM) compared to the winter (WIN) season using high throughput sequencing of FF-EV-coupled miRNAs.

Project description:Ovarian follicular fluid (FF) comprises a dynamic milieu whose composition alters under seasonal variation, influencing follicle development and oocyte developmental competence. Various cell subtypes (e.g. granulosa, theca, and cumulus) produce cell-secreted nanoparticles, coined extracellular vesicles (EVs), which contain bioactive regulatory molecules such as microRNAs (miRNAs) known to mediate intrafollicular communication through various forms of signaling and information transfer. Markedly, the hallmark feature of EVs transferring cellular knowledge propagates their appealing nature as direct indicators of cellular status, albeit homeostasis, dysfunction, or disease. Photoperiod alterations influencing the regulatory content of FF-EVs as downstream modifiers remain largely unknown, particularly in seasonal breeding animals. Here, we aimed to unpack the impacts of seasonal variation on the miRNA expression profiles of FF-EVs in the mare. Equine pre-ovulatory follicles were monitored and aspirated using ultrasound-guided transvaginal techniques to obtain follicular fluids during non-breeding (spring anovulatory, SAN) and breeding seasons (spring ovulatory, SOV; summer, SUM; and fall ovulatory, FOV). 97 miRNAs were found to be differentially expressed between groups. Pairwise comparisons revealed specific clusters, including six miRNAs involved in the spring transition (miR-149-200b-206-221-328-615) and many others dysregulated during that of the summer (miR-143-192451- 302b-100, and let 7c), the peak time point for breeding. Bioinformatic analyses led to unveiling significant enrichments in various biological functions, such as transcription factor activity, transcription and transcription regulation, nucleic acid binding, sequence-specific DNA binding, p53 signaling, and post-translational modifications. Ultimately, the miRNA content of seasonally divergent FF-EVs poses as potentially relevant indicators of intrafollicular mechanisms directing seasonal transitions and their functional regulatory roles in the pre-ovulatory stage, governing subsequent ovulation.

Project description:The mammalian follicular development is a well-orchestrated and complex molecular process characterized by sequences of follicular waves that yield the ovulatory follicle. It has been reported that bi-directional communication between the growing oocyte and the surrounding somatic cells is a hallmark of mammalian follicular development, partially mediated by extracellular vesicles (EVs) present in the follicular fluid (FF). Bioactive molecules such as the miRNAs encapsulated in the EVs mediate this communication within the follicular environment. Here, we aimed to decipher the dynamics of the miRNAs in the EVs of equine FF aspirated in vivo during different stages of follicular development. Hence, all follicles ≥6 mm were ablated on Days 10–11 of the estrous cycle (ovulation = Day 0) and the new induced wave was ultrasound-monitored daily until the largest growing follicle for at least three consecutive days was randomly allocated to one of the five groups (n = 8 follicles/group) namely: predeviation (preDEV; 18–20 mm), deviation (DEV; 22–25 mm), postdeviation (postDEV; 26–29 mm), preovulatory (preOV; 30–35 mm), and impending ovulation (IMP; ~40 mm). The FF was collected from each target group by ultrasound-guided transvaginal follicle aspiration. After removal of cells, cellular debris, and larger particles, EVs were isolated from FF groups (4 biological replicates/group; 0.5 mL FF/replicate) using high-speed ultracentrifugation (120,000xg for 70 min). Isolated EVs were characterized using western blot for EV marker proteins, NanoSight Tracking Analysis, and electron microscopy. MiRNA enriched total RNA was isolated from EVs using an Exosomal RNA Isolation kit and small-RNA library preparation and RNAseq (NextSeq500; Illumina) was performed by Novogene Co, Ltd. Approximately 180 known miRNAs were detected in each group with 148 mutually found in all groups. Among the expressed miRNAs, miR-148a, miR-21, miR-192, and miR-99a were the top highly abundant miRNAs in all groups. Cluster analysis exhibited 15 different expression patterns during follicular development. Among these patterns, a group of 23 miRNAs (including miR-106b, miR-199a-5p, and miR-125a-5p) exhibited a stable expression at the preDev until the postDev stage, a significant increase at the preOV stage, and then a significant decrease at the IMP stage. This miRNA cluster has been found to target genes involved in TGF-signaling and endocytosis pathways. Another interesting pattern with 22 miRNAs (including miR-146b-5p, miR-140, and miR-143) exhibited a sharp reduction in their expression from the preDEV until the preOV stage and was predicted to target genes associated with fatty acid biosynthesis, cell cycle, and oocyte meiosis pathways. In contrast, a group of 16 miRNAs (including miR-483, miR-128, and miR-192) gradually increased in expression from preDEV to the postDEV and then downregulated at the preOV stage. This miRNA cluster targets several signaling pathways, including ErbB, thyroid, and estrogen signaling. In conclusion, this study provides greater insights into the stage-specific expression dynamics of the FF EV-miRNAs during equine follicular development, which may play a role in folliculogenesis in mares.

Project description:Direct exposure to physiologically-relevant elevated temperatures during the first half of in vitro maturation heightens cumulus-derived progesterone production, suppresses matrix metallopeptidase 9 secretion, and alters cumulus transcriptome. We hypothesized that heat-induced perturbations in cumulus cells enveloping maturing oocyte may extend to the mural granulosa of the periovulatory follicle in the heat-stressed cow to subsequently follicular fluid proteome. Lactating Holsteins were pharmacologically stimulated to produce a dominant follicle then given GnRH to induce an LH surge. Following GnRH administration, cows were maintained at ~67 temperature humidity index (THI; thermoneutral conditions) or exposed to conditions simulating an acute heat stress event (71 to 86 THI; heat stress for ~12 h). Fluid was aspirated from periovulatory follicle ~16 h after GnRH. Follicular fluid proteome from thermoneutral (n = 5) and hyperthermic (n = 5) cows was evaluated by quantitative tandem mass spectrometry (nano LC-MS/MS). We identified 35 differentially-abundant proteins. Functional annotation revealed numerous immune-related proteins. Subsequent efforts revealed an increase in levels of the proinflammatory mediator bradykinin in follicular fluid (P = 0.0456) but not in serum (P = 0.9319) of hyperthermic cows. Intrafollicular increases in transferrin (negative acute phase protein) in hyperthermic cows (P = 0.0181) coincided with a tendency for levels to be increased in the circulation (P = 0.0683). Nine out of 15 cytokines evaluated were detected in follicular fluid. Heat stress increased intrafollicular IL6 levels (P = 0.0160). Whether hyperthermia-induced changes in the heat-stressed cow’s follicular fluid milieu reflect changes in mural granulosa, cumulus, other cell types secretions, and/or transudative changes from circulation remains unclear. Regardless of origin, heat stress/hyperthermia related changes in the follicular fluid milieu may have an impact on components important for ovulation and competence of the cumulus-oocyte complex contained within the periovulatory follicle

Project description:Our aim with this work is to identify and quantify the miRNA profile of the human follicular fluid using a miRNA microarray approach in young and advanced-aged women and in follicles with different oocyte quality. Data collected in this study would be utilized in a future as a marker to predict the oocyte quality. This observational prospective study includes women enrolled in the assisted reproduction program of Hospital Universitari i Politècnic la Fe (Valencia, Spain). The study was accepted by IRB of this Hospital and all couples received informed consent of our study and assisted technique according to service protocols. The study was divided in two stages: Stage 1: Patients (n=21) who had follicles yielding oocytes with different degree of maturation were included (n=21). The follicular fluid samples from 21 patients were pooled in different groups. Expression of miRNA in the follicular fluids was compared within each patient according the degree of oocyte maturation. Stage 2: Patients were allocated into two groups according to the patient's age: advanced age (AA; >36 years old) and young age (YA; <36 years old). Follicular fluids from follicles containing MII oocytes were pooled and miRNA expression was subsequently compared. Please note that the MII samples with underscore (such as MII1 vs MII_1) indicate different pools so they are not the same sample, but we maintained the number because they correspond to paired samples pools for GV and MI.

Project description:Innumerable similarities in reproductive cyclicity and hormonal alterations highlight the considerable utility of the mare to study aspects of follicular dynamics and reproductive function in view of the largely constricted, human research subjects. The bi-directional communication between the growing oocyte and the surrounding somatic cells embodies the hallmark of mammalian follicular development, partially mediated by extracellular vesicles (EVs) encapsulated with microRNAs (miRNAs) and present in the follicular fluid (FF). Here, we aimed to decipher the dynamics of the miRNAs in EVs from equine FF aspirated in vivo during different stages of follicular development, namely, predeviation (PreDev; 18-20 mm), deviation (Dev; 22-25 mm), postdeviation (PostDev; 26-29 mm), preovulatory (PreOV; 30-35 mm), and impending ovulation (IMP; ∼40 mm). Approximately 176 known miRNAs were found in all groups with 144 mutually detected among all groups. Cluster analysis exhibited 15 different expression patterns during follicular development. Among these patterns, a group of 22 miRNAs (including miR-146b-5p, miR-140, and miR-143) exhibited a sharp reduction in expression from the PreDev until the PreOV stage. Another cluster of 23 miRNAs (including miR-106b, miR-199a-5p, and miR-125a-5p) exhibited a stable expression pattern at the PreDev stage until the PostDev stage, with a significant increase at the PreOV stage followed by a significant decrease at the IMP stage. In conclusion, this study provides greater insights into the stage-specific expression dynamics of FF EV-miRNAs during equine follicular development, which may propose novel approaches to improve ART and provide new biomarkers to facilitate the assessment of ovarian pathophysiological conditions.
