Paternal exposure alone induces alcohol-related birth defects in a mouse model: Implications of paternal drinking in FAS birth defects.

Project description:Prevailing dogma maintains that Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) craniofacial and neurological birth defects are the sole consequence of maternal alcohol use during pregnancy. Using a physiologically relevant mouse model, we contrasted the incidence of alcohol-related growth and craniofacial defects between offspring derived from maternal, paternal, and dual parental alcohol exposures. Geometric morphometric analyses reveal that maternal, paternal, and dual parental exposures each induce unique craniofacial malformations and program dose-dependent increases in microcephaly, particularly in male offspring. Notably, dual parental exposures do not exhibit additive or synergistic effects; instead, our transcriptomic analyses demonstrate that each treatment programs distinct sex-specific changes in gene expression within the developing brain. Our data are the first to demonstrate that male drinking is a plausible driver of alcohol- related birth defects and that epidemiological examination of male alcohol consumption may help explain the enormous variation in FAS clinical presentations and severity.

Haploinsufficiency, but not defective paternal 5mC oxidation, accounts for the developmental defects of maternal Tet3 knockouts

Project description:DNA demethylation of paternal genome in zygotes takes place in various mammals including mice and human. Recent studies have revealed that this is achieved through Tet3-mediated iterative oxidation of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) coupled with replication-dependent dilution. Tet3-mediated paternal DNA demethylation is believed to be required for mouse development given that Tet3 heterozygous embryos, derived by fertilizing Tet3 knockout (KO) oocytes with wild-type (WT) sperms, exhibit 5mC oxidation defects and embryonic sublethality, Here we demonstrate that the sublethality phenotype of the maternal KO mice is caused by haploinsufficiency of Tet3, but not by defective paternal 5mC oxidation. We found that Tet3 heterozygous mice derived from crosses of heterozygous father or mother with WT mice also exhibit sublethality phenotype similarly to Tet3 maternal KO mice. Importantly, embryos reconstituted with WT paternal nuclei that bypassed 5mC oxidation develop to term and grow to adulthood normally. Genome-scale DNA methylation analysis of the maternal KO zygotes and blastocysts demonstrated that hypermethylation caused by the depletion of maternal Tet3 is largely diminished by the blastocyst stage. Our study thus not only demonstrates that Tet3-mediated paternal 5mC oxidation is dispensable for mouse development but also suggests the existence of a compensation mechanism in preimplantation embryos that can compensate for the defective 5mC oxidation in zygotes. This data set includes RRBS data of wild-type and maternal Tet3 KO zygotes and blastocysts (C57BL/6J x CAST/EiJ)

Gastrulation-stage gene expression in Nipbl+/- mouse embryos foreshadows the development of syndromic birth defects

Project description:In animal models, Nipbl-deficiency phenocopies gene expression changes and birth defects seen in Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS), the most common cause of which is Nipbl-haploinsufficiency. Previous studies in Nipbl+/- mice identified aberrant gene expression and heart defects as early as cardiac crescent (CC) stage. Here, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing on wildtype (WT) and Nipbl+/- mouse embryos at CC- and earlier (gastrulation) stages. Nipbl+/- embryos had fewer mesoderm cells than WT and altered proportions of mesodermal cell subpopulations. These findings were associated with an underexpression of genes implicated in driving specific mesodermal lineages. Nipbl+/- embryos also misexpressed developmentally-critical genes, including the transcription factor, Nanog, and genes governing left-right and anterior-posterior patterning. These events of cell misallocation and transcriptional dysregulation foreshadowed defects in tissue composition and patterning that arise later in Nipbl+/- mice, offering insights into early developmental contributions to birth defects in CdLS.
