Project description:Sperm contributes diverse RNAs to the zygote. While sperm small RNAs have been shown to impact offspring phenotypes, our knowledge of the sperm transcriptome, especially the composition of long RNAs has been limited by the lack of sensitive, high-throughput experimental techniques that can distinguish intact RNAs from fragmented RNAs, known to abound in sperm. Here, we integrate single-molecule long-read sequencing with short-read sequencing to detect sperm intact RNAs (spiRNAs). We identify 3,440 spiRNA species in mice and 4,100 in humans. The spiRNA profile consists of both mRNAs and long non-coding RNAs, is evolutionarily conserved between mice and humans, and displays an enrichment in mRNAs encoding for ribosome. In sum, we characterize the landscape of intact long RNAs in sperm, paving the way for future studies on their biogenesis and functions. Our experimental and bioinformatics approaches can be applied to other tissues and organisms to detect intact transcripts.

Project description:Increasingly, studies have shown that mature spermatozoa contain many transcripts including mRNAs and miRNAs. However, the expression profile of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in mammalian sperm has not been systematically investigated. Here, we used highly purified RNA to investigate lncRNA expression profiles in mouse mature sperm by stranded-specific RNA-seq. We identified 20907 known and 4088 novel lncRNAs transcripts, and the existence of intact lncRNAs was confirmed by RT-PCR and fluorescence in situ hybridization on two representative lncRNAs. Compared with testes, 2873 upregulated and 6629 downregulated lncRNAs and 1237 upregulated and 2513 downregulated mRNAs were identified in sperm. Based on the “Cis and Trans” RNA-RNA interaction principle, we found 1793 targeted coding genes of differently expressed lncRNAs. In terms of GO analysis, differentially expressed lncRNAs targeted genes mainly related to nucleic acid metabolic, protein modification, chromatin and histone modification, sperm function, and spermatogenesis. In contrast, differentially expressed transcripts of mRNAs were highly enriched for nucleic acid metabolic, spermatogenesis, sperm function, and chromatin organization. Furthermore, KEGG pathway analysis showed that the differentially expressed lncRNAs were involved in mRNA surveillance and AMPK signaling pathways. Besides these two pathways, RNA transport splicesome was another pathway incorporated with the differentially expressed mRNA. In summary, this study provides a preliminary database valuable for identifying lncRNAs critical in the late stage of spermatogenesis or important for sperm function regulation.

Project description:Growing evidences have shown that many transcripts have been discovered in sperm and small noncoding RNAs, such as miRNA and tsRNA, of sperm paly an important role in the transgenerational transmission of paternal lifetime experiences. However, the expression profile of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in mammalian sperm has not been systematically investigated. Furthermore, Abnormal expression of lncRNA whether or not related with the asthenozoospermic is completely unknown. In the present study, highly purified RNA was served to investigate lncRNA expression profiles in human mature sperm by stranded-specific RNA-seq. We identified 38,307 known and 27,472 novel lncRNA genes, and the existence of intact LncRNA transcripts was confirmed by RT-PCR and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on two representative LncRNAs. Many lncRNAs exclusive were expressed in testis and sperm. 880 lncRNA sequences were conserved between human and mouse with > 80% overlap. Compared with normal population, the lncRNA profiles in asthenozoospermic patients’ sperm showed significant difference with 2437 up-regulation and 306 down-regulation of lncRNA. This study will provide a preliminary database valuable for identifying lncRNAs critical on sperm function regulation or important for screening the lncRNA markers of asthenozoospermia.

Project description:A genetic diagnosis of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is challenging. However, long-read single-molecule sequencing has been shown to be a reliable alternative strategy that could overcome PKD1 complexities. Using long-read sequencing to characterize a cohort of 19 patients with ADPKD, we developed an approach that provided high sensitivity in identifying PKD1 pathogenic variants, with a diagnostic yield of 94.7%. Reliable screening of ADPKD patients in a single test without interference of PKD1 homologous sequences is now possible.

Project description:There are many applications in which quantitative information about DNA mixtures with different molecular lengths is important. Gene therapy vectors are much longer than can be sequenced individually via short-read NGS. However, vector preparations may contain smaller DNAs that behave differently during sequencing. We have used two library preparations each for Pacific Biosystems (PacBio) and Oxford Nanopore Technologies NGS to determine their suitability for quantitative assessment of varying sized DNAs. Equimolar length standards were generated from E. coli genomic DNA. Both PacBio library preparations provided a consistent length dependence though with a complex pattern. This method is sufficiently sensitive that differences in genomic copy number between DNA from E. coli grown in exponential and stationary phase conditions could be detected. The transposase-based Oxford Nanopore library preparation provided a predictable length dependence, but the random sequence starts caused the loss of original length information. The ligation-based approach retained length information but read frequency was more variable. Modeling of E. coli versus lambda read frequency via cubic spline smoothing showed that the shorter genome could be used as a suitable internal spike-in for DNAs in the 200 bp to 10 kb range, allowing meaningful QC to be carried out with AAV preparations.

Project description:Seminal fluid factors modulate the female immune response at conception to facilitate embryo implantation and reproductive success. Whether sperm affect this response has not been clear. We evaluated global gene expression by microarray in the mouse uterus after mating with intact or vasectomized males. Intact males induced greater changes in gene transcription, prominently affecting pro-inflammatory cytokine and immune regulatory genes, with TLR4 signaling identified as a top-ranked upstream driver. Recruitment of neutrophils and expansion of peripheral regulatory T cells were elevated by seminal fluid of intact males. In vitro, epididymal sperm induced IL6, CXCL2, and CSF3 in uterine epithelial cells of wild-type, but not Tlr4 null females. Collectively these experiments show that sperm assist in promoting female immune tolerance by eliciting uterine cytokine expression through TLR4-dependent signaling. The findings indicate a biological role for sperm beyond oocyte fertilization, in modulating immune mechanisms involved in female control of reproductive investment. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in mice following exposure to different components of seminal fluid
