Accomplishments

Accomplishments:

 

Objective 1: Understand the biology of gamete development, fertilization and embryogenesis including the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms.

 

  1. Validation of antibodies against FSHR and p42/44 MAPK for use in bovine cells.

Characterization of gene expression in bovine PGCs.

 

  1. Determined the requirement of miRNA for bovine preimplantation development. Determined the effect of Magnesium in bovine preimplantation development.

 

  1. Systematically characterized the epigenetic landscape (DNA methylome and chromatin modifiers) of the bovine in vivo developed pre-implantation embryos. Characterized the epigenetic phenomenon, X chromosome dosage compensation in the sheep.

 

  1. The combination of concentration-exposure time to cilostamide during IVPM delayed meiotic progression in bovine after 6 and 12 h of culture. However, overall the culture period (IVPM+IVM) influenced the oocyte chromatin configuration and kinetics in both goats and cattle.

 

  1. The bovine genome was mapped to determine specific areas where gene promoters and/or enhancers were most accessible. These regions changed in a stage specific manner and correlated with stage specific expressed genes.  Accessible chromatin regions were reveled near the transcription start sites of active genes as well as at distal regions representing transcription factor binding motifs.

 

  1. The effect of vitrification at the blastocyst stage on gene expression in later day 14 elongated embryos was studied. Gene Ontology pathway analysis strongly suggested that mitochondrial function and energy production were impacted in the trophectoderm following vitrification and persisted in the day 14 elongated embryo stage.

 

  1. 13C-assisted metabolic flux analysis (13C MFA) is a powerful methodology to quantify intracellular fluxes through primary and intermediary metabolism. We have designed novel labeling experiments to obtain a metabolic flux map for this complex system. The methods developed by us demonstrate the extension of the MFA framework to complex mammalian systems.

 

  1. In the pig, the patterns of protein-to-protein interactions varied throughout follicle development. Proteins such as serine protease inhibitor, clade E (SERPINE); plasminogen activator, urokinase (PLAU); and plasminogen activator, urokinase receptor (PLAUR) appeared stage-specific. The “complement and coagulation cascades” was the common major pathway. In the mare, fifty-two proteins were common to all seasons. A total of 13 proteins were unique to either season, and 25 were shared between two seasons or more.
  2. Magnetic nanoselection permits high throughput targeting and removal of damaged spermatozoa from semen doses, leading to rapid and effortless enrichment of semen doses with highly motile, viable, and fertile spermatozoa for artificial insemination.
  3. The present study utilized the CRISPR/Cas9 genomic engineering to knockout pig conceptus PTGS2 gene expression. The current results with PTGS2-/- conceptuses and our previous work with CYP19A1-/- conceptuses suggests that both PGE2 and estrogens act as maternal recognition signals, which in the absence of the other can establish pregnancy beyond 17 days. However, conceptus production of estrogen is essential for successful maintenance of pregnancy beyond day 30 as both conceptus and endometrial PGs are not successful in compensating for lost estrogen production at this time.

 

  1. Semen from GnRHR-II KD boars had reduced sperm kinematics on Day 0, whereas littermate control sperm contained more proximal droplets. On Day 6, transgenic sperm kinetics were decreased, whereas littermate control sperm were slower. Treatment with a GnRHR antagonist (SB-75; 10 µM) decreased total motility of sperm, the percentage of morphologically normal sperm cells, and also impacted sperm kinematics.

 

  1. Testicular tissue from GnRHR-II KD males (n = 5) produced less testosterone per gram of testicular tissue than littermate controls. At maturity, GnRHR-II KD boars had reduced penis (P < 0.05) and prostate (P < 0.10) weights than control animals. However, protein amounts for both CYP11A1 and CYP17A1 were higher in testicular tissue from GnRHR-II KD vs. control animals. Neither volume or percentage of organelles for the nucleus, cytoplasm, mitochondria, lipid and late lysosomal bodies in Leydig cells differed between GnRHR-II KD vs. control testes.

 

  1. Design of a practical system to deliver a defined photostimulation (wavelength and intensity) protocol to cells/embryos in culture.
  1. The metabolomic profile analysis of bovine IVF and SCNT embryos through Raman spectroscopy was able to identify metabolomic differences between embryos of different developmental potential and embryos produced by IVF and SCNT.

 

  1. Apoptosis as a surrogate marker for nuclear reprogramming and embryo survival post-transfer A non-invasive marker for apoptosis distinguished between high quality and low quality embryos in vitro, but not in vivo.  There were distinct and consistent differences in gene expression and DNA methylation between highly apoptotic and lowly apoptotic embryos, which may be of interest. 

 

Objective 2: Refine methods to produce animals by genetic engineering or genome editing for the improvement of livestock production efficiency and development of human biomedical models.

 

  1. Optimized electroporation conditions for pig zygote CRISPR/Cas9 delivery. Design of guide RNAs effective at deleting the target DNA has been achieved.

 

  1. Established bovine ESCs from various embryo sources in alternative culture conditions.

 

  1. Targeting shRNA constructs for KDM1A were designed, tested in vitro, and currently used to study their function in early trophectoderm development in vivo. A multiplex PCR genotyping assay has been developed to distinguish XX and XY cells/tissues in sheep.

 

  1. Using in vitro assays, ARID3B was identified as a downstream target of LIN28-Let7 and a critical transcription factor complex and regulator of key genes necessary for placental development. LIN28B was identified as a regulator of androgen receptor in immortalized trophoblast cells through the action of Let7c.

 

  1. LIN41 and WNT pathway are downstream targets of the NANOG and LIN28 expression in reprogramming. Modulation of the LIN41 expression and WNT signaling can greatly enhance the human iPSC reprogramming efficiency. An additional downstream target of NANOG and LIN28 is FOXH1. Proper stimulation of FOXH1 expression in reprogramming is another mechanism behind NL-stimulated reprogramming efficiency.

 

  1. Bovine iPSCs were induced and the transcriptome profiles of the induced bovine cells and their human iPSC counterparts were generated. Allowing comparison of the reprogramming status of the bovine cells with human iPSCs.

 

  1. Naked DNA has been shown to bind naturally to the sperm, a method called spermmediated gene transfer (SMGT). In order to determine if the liposome-DNA complex would bind to sperm, real time PCR was used to detect GFP DNA and images of the sperm were analyzed using the Spatial Light Interference Microscopy (SLIM). SLIM confirmed the presence of liposomes on the sperm head and tail.

 

  1. Incorporation of the PLA reinforcing frame does not negatively influence the osteoinductive nature of the mineralized collagen scaffold. These findings suggest a strategy to address often competing bioactivity, mechanical strength, and shape-fitting design requirements for biomaterials for craniomaxillofacial bone regeneration.

 

  1. Using color Doppler ultrasound imaging that the highest pregnancy rate was observed in recipients with CLs with median Doppler blood flow, a palpable CL papillae, and no CL lacunae. A larger sample size is required to determine the accuracy of this measurement. Recipients with high to low CL blood flow are suitable for IVP embryo transfer programs. Alone, color Doppler imaging of the CL does not predict pregnancy rate.

 

  1. Bovine Leukosis Virus (BLV) in embryos produced by IVF with semen from BLV seropositive bulls could not be detected. Further, no viral presence was observed in the semen or media samples after sperm selection. In conclusion, these data indicate the use of BLV seropositive bull semen for the production of in vitro fertilized embryos posed no statistically significant risk of transmitting BLV to the embryos.

 

  1. The world’s first cria produced from a cryopreserved embryo was produced.

 

  1. The effect of the commonly used animal derived biological semen extender supplements, egg yolk and milk on the ability to induce the acrosome reaction following capacitation treatment commonly used in in vitro fertilization was studied. The semen cryopreserved with an extender supplemented with milk led to a significantly lower response to acrosome inducting agents than when semen was cryopreserved with an extender supplemented with egg yolk.

 

  1. An extended culture (6 hours) after vitrification-warming improved meiotic spindle recovery in bovine oocytes. Vitrified-warmed oocytes exposed to the extended culture had significantly more normal microtubular distribution. 

 

  1. The formulated liposomes can interact with boar spermatozoa, improve the proportions of motile and progressive spermatozoa, while decreasing the proportions of abnormal spermatozoa.

 

  1. Successful in using the CRISPR/Cas 9 gene editing system to knockout expression of specific conceptus genes. Conceptus genes for IL1B2, CYP19A1 and PTGS2 have been knockout using CRISPR/Cas 9 with fibroblastic cloning in pigs.

 

  1. Uncovered a previously unrecognized metabolic system that can help to maintain liver homeostasis under conditions of oxidative or toxic stress. The system uses catabolism of the essential sulfur amino acid methionine (Met) to generate cytosolic disulfide reducing power in the liver. This is the only NADPH-independent source of cytosolic disulfide reducing power that has, as yet, been characterized. This system consumes, in addition to Met, serine, and has broad impacts on diverse other metabolic pathways, including energetic pathways, the citric acid cycle, the folate cycle, polyamine biosynthesis pathways, methyltransferase reactions, and others.
  2. Developed an efficient protocol for the introduction of human specific mutations into the sheep fetal fibroblast cells using CRISPR/Cas9 RNP approach. Successfully introduced the F508del and G542X mutations in CFTR gene in SFFs. Generated biallelic NANOS2 knockout goats that served as recipients for exogenous spermatogonial stem cell transplantation.

 

  1. Published efficiency of CRISPR/Cas9 system to introduce targeted modifications in bovine is 10-50%. Our data suggests that 100% targeting could be achieved in bovine.

Impacts

  1. IMPACTS: 1. Endogenous testicular cortisol in the juvenile interval may restrict postpuberal sperm production in the boar. Regulation of in vivo Sertoli cell proliferation did not benefit from studies with in vitro monocultures. Our data suggest reduction of endogenous estrogen will not be an effective manipulation to increase bovine sperm production. 2. New roles of FSH in the development of preantral follicles are being discovered and will be critical for the development of culture systems that promote oogenesis in vitro. 3. Understanding bovine PGC biology represents a useful resource for in-vitro differentiation of bovine pluripotent stem cells to PGCs. 4. The epigenetic profiles of the bovine embryos is the fourth species ever characterized. Similarities and differences among different mammalian species were identified. The data serve as reference base for all bovine embryos produced by assisted reproductive technologies. 5. The results filled the knowledge gap on gene dosage compensation in a new species, the domestic sheep, an understudied species in developmental epigenetics. 6. Our data demonstrated the cilostamide during IVPM delayed meiotic progression in bovine. The specific inhibitors of cGMP do not affect the lipid profiles of the resulting oocytes and embryos after IVF. 7. Determining regulatory gene expression networks driving embryo development in vivo and in vitro as well as development potentially disrupted by cryopreservation will reveal targets for improving developmental competence in embryos produced by assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro embryo production and somatic cell nuclear transfer. 8. Unraveling the metabolic basis of normal early embryo development will provide significant benefits to human and animal reproductive health. Improved embryonic competency following in vitro production and cryopreservation would stimulate the industry by lowering costs, especially those related to recipient management. 9. This study provides extensive and functional analyses of the pFF proteome changes during folliculogenesis and offers the potential for novel biomarker discovery in pFF for oocyte quality assessment. 10. The balance between the FF contents in prothrombin, plasminogen, and coagulation factor XII proteins favoring FF fluidity may be crucial at the peak of the ovulatory season (SUM), which peak may explain the reported lower incidence of hemorrhagic anovulatory follicles during the SUM season. 11. Magnetic nanoselection allowing specific removal of abnormal spermatozoa from semen samples appears as a promising tool for improving fertility of males, particularly during periods, such as heat stress during the summer months. 12. Utilization of the CRISPR/Cas 9 gene editing system provides a powerful tool to evaluate the role of genes during early conceptus development. Research has changed the paradigm of the role of IL1B2, estrogen and PTGS2 in maternal recognition of pregnancy and maintenance of pregnancy in pigs. 13. Acquired a change in fundamental knowledge regarding LH independent steroidogenesis and postnatal testicular development, implicating GnRH-II and its receptor in this important biological mechanism. We expect to better understand how the GnRH-II receptor is regulated within extra-pituitary tissues related to reproduction. 14. New pharmacological agents may be developed to manipulate the reproductive axis, leading to enhanced fertility rates and reduced incidences of endocrine disorders impacting reproduction. Data from these experiments could lead to novel swine-specific contraceptive methods to manage feral pig populations. 15. Identification of subfertile boars at a younger age would allow producers to focus resources on reproductively superior animals and market subfertile males prior to sexual maturity, significantly increasing their value. Improved identification of fertile vs. subfertile boars would contribute more doses of semen sold per ejaculate, reducing the cost of production. 16. Novel factors may be determined to improve semen extenders in swine, extending the lifespan of sperm and decreasing the cost of semen doses. Demonstration that GnRH-II and its receptor are important to sperm function, representing a potential avenue to improve semen preservation. 17. There was an immediate impact on the undergraduate research education of ten students involved in the development and execution of the projects. We reached the scientific community, professionals, and companies involved in bovine in vitro productions systems through the publication of our results in a scientific abstract 18. Delivery of CRISPR/Cas9 by electroporation will facilitate creation of gene-edited pigs 19. Efficient production of bESC from SCNT embryos enables the generation of pluripotent stem cell lines from valuable and well characterized individuals. 20. The long-term proliferation potential of bESCs make them good candidates for introducing complex and/or multiple gene edits in high genetic merit animals for advancing genetic improvement and/or enhancing production and biotechnological traits in cattle. 21. Understanding the role of LIN28A and LIN28B in sheep placenta will improve our understanding of the genetic regulation of placenta development and result in methods to improve somatic cell nuclear transfer in ruminants. 22. Similarly establishing that androgen and estrogen signaling through their receptors are regulated by KDM1A in the placenta, and are involved in placental angiogenesis in agriculture animals will lead to new insight into factors involved in early pregnancy losses. This also can lead to development of novel strategies and/or tools to identify or prevent early embryo mortality. 23. Generated new knowledge and database to elucidate the mechanisms for enhancement of reprogramming efficiency and pluripotency establishment which are key to the successful generation of bona fide biPSCs. 24. SLIM microscopy confirmed the presence of liposomes on the sperm head and tail. 25. A PLA reinforcing frame does not negatively influence the osteoinductive nature of a mineralized collagen scaffold. 26. Alone, color Doppler imaging of the CL does not predict pregnancy rate. The use of BLV seropositive bull semen for the production of in vitro fertilized embryos posed no statistically significant risk of transmitting BLV to the embryos. 27. The successful production of live offspring from a cryopreserved alpaca embryo opens the opportunity for germplasm preservation and transport for this species. 28. The demonstration that different semen extenders used during cryopreservation can effect the way spermatozoa respond to common capacitation treatments used in in vitro embryo production highlights the importance of developing in vitro methods applicable across a wide spectrum of conditions. 29. Disruption of the meiotic spindle has been a major component of the reduced developmental potential after oocyte cryopreservation. The ability to enhance spindle recovery post vitrification-warming is major step towards improving this capacity. 30. The newly designed liposomes were effective for simple interactions with sperm plasma membrane and molecule delivery, without impairing sperm motility. Further studies are ongoing with the replacement of doxorubicin with a DNA fragment. 31. Uncovered previously unrecognized systems that support survival and function of liver cells from a redox metabolism standpoint, which, in turn, provided insights into better therapies for treating some liver diseases or toxicities. From more of a bioengineering standpoint, these studies are demonstrating the power of being able to genetically manipulate hepatic metabolism in adult animals. This promises to provide interesting new ways to genetically modify nutrient use or intermediary metabolism of animals that could improve food-production characteristics of livestock without generating genetically modified food products. 32. Our results should assist in utilizing the technology in introducing targeted modifications in bovine. Our publication indicates that unintended mutations can be introduced by CRISPR/Cas9 system, if not carefully designed. The study suggests that careful consideration should be made prior to apply the technology in genetically engineered animal production.
