Project description:Sex differences in the brain as they relate to health and disease are often overlooked in experimental models. Many neurological disorders, like Alzheimer’s disease (AD), multiple sclerosis (MS), and autism, differ in prevalence between males and females. Sex differences originate either from differential gene expression on sex chromosomes or from hormonal differences, either directly or indirectly. To disentangle the relative contributions of genetic sex (XX v. XY) and gonadal sex (ovaries v. testes) to the regulation of hippocampal sex effects, we use the “sex-reversal” Four Core Genotype (FCG) mouse model which uncouples sex chromosome complement from gonadal sex. Transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses of hippocampal RNA and DNA from ∼12 month old FCG mice, reveals differential regulatory effects of sex chromosome content and gonadal sex on X- versus autosome-encoded gene expression and DNA modification patterns. Gene expression and DNA methylation patterns on the X chromosome were driven primarily by sex chromosome content, not gonadal sex. The majority of DNA methylation changes involved hypermethylation in the XX genotypes (as compared to XY) in the CpG context, with the largest differences in CpG islands, promoters, and CTCF binding sites. Autosomal gene expression and DNA modifications demonstrated regulation by sex chromosome complement and gonadal sex. These data demonstrate the importance of sex chromosomes themselves, independent of hormonal status, in regulating hippocampal sex effects. Future studies will need to further interrogate specific CNS cell types, identify the mechanisms by which sex chromosome regulate autosomes, and differentiate organizational from activational hormonal effects.

Project description:Common neurological disorders, like Alzheimer's disease (AD), multiple sclerosis (MS), and autism, display profound sex differences in prevalence and clinical presentation. However, sex differences in the brain with health and disease are often overlooked in experimental models. Sex effects originate, directly or indirectly, from hormonal or sex chromosomal mechanisms. To delineate the contributions of genetic sex (XX v. XY) versus gonadal sex (ovaries v. testes) to the epigenomic regulation of hippocampal sex differences, we used the Four Core Genotypes (FCG) mouse model which uncouples chromosomal and gonadal sex. Transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses of ~ 12-month-old FCG mouse hippocampus, revealed genomic context-specific regulatory effects of genotypic and gonadal sex on X- and autosome-encoded gene expression and DNA modification patterns. X-chromosomal epigenomic patterns, classically associated with X-inactivation, were established almost entirely by genotypic sex, independent of gonadal sex. Differences in X-chromosome methylation were primarily localized to gene regulatory regions including promoters, CpG islands, CTCF binding sites, and active/poised chromatin, with an inverse relationship between methylation and gene expression. Autosomal gene expression demonstrated regulation by both genotypic and gonadal sex, particularly in immune processes. These data demonstrate an important regulatory role of sex chromosomes, independent of gonadal sex, on sex-biased hippocampal transcriptomic and epigenomic profiles. Future studies will need to further interrogate specific CNS cell types, identify the mechanisms by which sex chromosomes regulate autosomes, and differentiate organizational from activational hormonal effects.

Project description:Mammalian gonadal sex determination is dependent on proper expression of sex determining genes in fetal gonadal somatic support cells (i.e., pre-granulosa and pre-Sertoli cells in XX and XY gonads, resp.). We used a unique transgenic mouse strain combined with microarray profiling to identify all the differentially expressed transcripts in XX and XY isolated somatic support cells during critical stages of gonadal development and differentiation.

Project description:Early gonadal-mesonephros tissues give rise to the developing gonad, with potential to diverge towards either a testis or ovarian gonadal fate. ZNRF3 mutant homozygotic mice develop a variable sex reversal previously uncharacterised at the single cell level. We used scRNA-Seq to compare XX and XY WT C57BL/6J mouse gonads to ZNRF3-deficient mice across multiple timepoints, during and after initial sex determination.

Project description:A critical transcription factor required for mammalian male sex determination is SRY (sex determining region on the Y chromosome). The expression of SRY in precursor Sertoli cells is one of the initial events in testis development. The current study was designed to determine the impact of environmentally induced epigenetic transgenerational inheritance on SRY during gonadal sex determination in the male. The agricultural fungicide vinclozolin and vehicle control (DMSO) exposed gestating females (F0 generation) during gonadal sex determination promoted the transgenerational inheritance of differential DNA methylation in sperm of the F3 generation (great grand-offspring). The fetal gonads in F3 generation males were used to identify potential alterations in SRY binding sites in the developing Sertoli cells. Chromatin immunoprecipitation with an SRY antibody followed by genome-wide promoter tiling array (ChIP-Chip) was used to identify alterations in SRY binding. A total of 81 adjacent oligonucleotide sites and 173 single oligo SRY binding sites were identified to be altered transgenerationally in the Sertoli cell vinclozolin lineage F3 generation males. Observations demonstrate the majority of the previously identified normal SRY binding sites were not altered and the altered SRY binding sites were novel and new additional sites. The chromosomal locations, gene associations and potentially modified cellular pathways were investigated. In summary, environmentally induces epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of germline epimutations appears to alter the cellular differentiation and development of the precursor Sertoli cell SRY binding during gonadal sex determination that influence the developmental origins of adult onset testis disease.

Project description:Gonadal sex differentiation – testis versus ovary formation – is a fundamental process required for reproduction and evolution. Reflecting this importance, the embryonic gonads of vertebrate species comprise the same key cell types; germ cells, supporting cells and interstitial steroidogenic cells. Remarkably, the genetic triggers for gonadal sex differentiation vary across species (the SRY gene in mammals, DMRT1 in birds and some turtles, temperature in many reptiles, AMH and various other genes in fishes). Despite this variation, the cell biology of gonadal development was long thought to be largely conserved. Here, we present a comprehensive analysis of gonadal sex differentiation, using the chicken embryo as a model and considering the entire gonad. We sampled over 30,000 cells across several developmental stages, prior, during and after the onset of gonadal sex differentiation. The data provide several new insights into cell lineage specification during vertebrate gonadogenesis. Combining lineage tracing with single cell transcriptomics, the data show that somatic supporting cells of the embryonic chicken gonad do not derive from the coelomic epithelium, in contrast to other vertebrates studied. Instead, the early somatic precursors cells of the gonads in both sexes derive from a DMRT1+/PAX2+/WNT4+/OSR1+ mesenchymal cell population. In particular, PAX2 marks immigrating mesenchymal cells that give rise to the supporting cell lineage. We find a greater complexity of gonadal cell types than previously thought, including the identification of two distinct sub-populations of Sertoli cells in developing testes, and derivation of embryonic steroidogenic cells from a differentiated supporting cell lineage. We provide significantly improved resolution of gonadal cell types and identify several new gonadal marker genes. Altogether, these results indicate that, just as the genetic trigger for sex differs across vertebrate groups, cell lineage specification in the gonad may also vary substantially.

Project description:Purpose: In this study we employed unbiased, genome-wide techniques to identify regulatory elements during murine sex determination. Methods: We performed ATAC-seq on 60K FACS-purified XX and XY gonadal cells before and after sex determination to map nucleosome depleted regions (NDRs) indicative of regulatory elements. To determine whether these are active enhancers, we performed ChIP-seq for H3K27ac, a histone modification that marks active enhancers in both sexes and time points. Transient transgenics was performed on select enhancers to determine whether they are functional in gonads during the sex determination stage. Results: We have produced a genome wide map of potential regulatory elements and active enhancers during the process of murine sex determination. Furthermore, we validated the power of our dataset by identifying a novel enhancer downstream of Bmp2, a female-specific gene. Conclusions: This work supplies a powerful resource for identifying chromatin regulatory elements active during mammalian sex determination.
