Project description:Exposure to environmental stressors is known to increase disease susceptibility in unexposed descendants in the absence of detectable genetic mutations. The mechanisms mediating environmentally-induced transgenerational disease susceptibility are poorly understood. We showed that great-great-grandsons of female mice exposed to tributyltin (TBT) throughout pregnancy and lactation were predisposed to obesity due to altered chromatin organization that subsequently biased DNA methylation and gene expression. Here we analyzed DNA methylomes and transcriptomes from tissues of animals ancestrally exposed to TBT spanning generations, sexes, ontogeny, and cell differentiation state. We found that TBT elicited concerted alterations in the expression of “chromatin organization” genes and inferred that TBT-disrupted chromatin organization might be able to self-reconstruct transgenerationally. We also found that the location of “chromatin organization” and “metabolic” genes is biased similarly in mouse and human genomes, suggesting that exposure to environmental stressors in different species could elicit similar phenotypic effects via self-reconstruction of disrupted chromatin organization.

Project description:Folate metabolism is important for the generation of methyl groups required for cellular methylation reactions. Mice with a hypomorphic mutation in the gene Mtrr have disrupted folate metabolism and show transgenerational inheritance of developmental abnormalities. We sought to explore if DNA methylation patterns in the sperm of Mtrr mice may be disrupted. Therefore we performed MeDIP-seq on sperm collect from males with the Mtrr mutation (either heterozygous (Mtrr +/gt) or homozygous mutants (Mtrr gt/gt)), males ancestrally exposed to the Mtrr mutation (Mtrr +/+) and C57Bl/6J control males. C57Bl/6J males were used as controls as they have the same genetic background as the mice with Mtrr mutation.

Project description:Microarray analyses were used to evaluate patterns of gene transcription following exposure of the waterflea Daphnia magna to two natural and one anthropogenic stressor. cDNA microarrays compiled of three life stage specific and three stressor-specific EST libraries, yielding 1734 different EST sequences, were used. We exposed the water flea Daphnia magna to three stressors known to exert strong selection in natural populations of this species i.e. a sublethal concentration of the pesticide carbaryl, infective spores of the endoparasite Pasteuria ramosa, and fish predation risk mimicked by exposure to fish kairomones. A total of 148 gene fragments were differentially expressed compared to the control. Most gene fragments were downregulated under stress (82.4% downregulation compared to 17.6% upregulation) irrespective of the treatment. In approximately 5% of the cases up- or downregulation depended on stressor identity. Based on a PCA, we could identify two different groups within our exposure treatments: small and big gene expression differences compared to the control condition. The treatments parasite 96h exposure, carbaryl 144h of exposure and fish 144h of exposure are combined in the high stress group.

The treatments parasite 96h exposure, carbaryl 144h of exposure and fish 144h of exposure are combined in the high stress group. 26 samples x 2 biological replicates were analysed in a carriage wheel design (Khanin & Wit, 2005; Knapen et al., 2009) with a reference sample composed of a clutch of non-exposed D. magna that were collected at different time points ranging from 0-24h until three weeks old. The 26 samples included: 4 treatments (control, carbaryl, fish and parasite exposure) x three time points (48h, 96h and 144h) x 2 replicates + 2 start samples (non-exposed individuals younger than 24h old). This led to 52 different microarray hybridizations: 26 hybridizations for the inner part of the wheel, where every sample is hybridized against the reference, and another 26 for the outer part. Color flip experiments were incorporated per sample to fulfill the conditions of technical replicates on the level of labelling; every stressor-time combination was included at least once in red and once in green. One hybridization in the outer part of the wheel had technical problems, and is not included here.

Project description:Folate metabolism is important for DNA synthesis and repair through its role in the synthesis of the nucleotide thymidine. Mice with a hypomorphic mutation in the gene Mtrr have disrupted folate metabolism and show transgenerational inheritance of developmental abnormalities. We sought to explore if genetic mutations arising in the Mtrr mice may be responsible for the inheritance of these phenotypes. Therefore we sequenced the genomes of six embryos homozygous for the Mtrr mutation at embryonic day (E) 10.5 with developmental abnormalities. These were compared to two control C57Bl/6J embryos at E10.5, which had no developmental phenotypes. C57Bl/6J embryos were used as controls as they have the same genetic background as the mice with Mtrr mutation.

Project description:The amygdala is a prominent region of the brain processing stress-related emotion and vigilance. Additionally it is known that the serotonergic system is strongly involved in stress response and adaptation. The serotonin transporter (5-HTT) as key regulator of serotonergic activity in the brain is associated with stress-related neuropsychiatric disorders as well as heightened trait anxiety/dysphoria and exaggerated response to fear and environmental stress in humans. Also 5-HTT knockout mice display increased anxiety- and depression-related behaviors, altered stress reactivity and stress-coping abilities, gene expression differences and altered dendritic morphology. We measured immediate reactions to an acute stressor in 5-HTT knockout mice vs. wildtypes using microarrays for genome wide gene expression profiling in the amygdala and identified different functional clusters dependent on condition and genotype. Global amygdalar gene expression profiles were compared between 5-HTT knockout vs. wildtype mice in the conditions control vs. acute stressor in a total sample of 20 (5 biological replicates per genotype and condition).
