Abstract
Oocytes contain reprogramming machinery that can transform somatic cells into totipotent cells. In this study, we aimed to isolate and characterize nanovesicles from mature porcine oocytes and described them for the first time as "intra-ooplasmic vesicles (IOVs)". Isolated IOVs had an average diameter of 186.3 ± 10.8 nm. Proteomic analysis revealed 467 peptide reads, with the top 20 proteins related to reprogramming, antioxidative defense, cytoskeleton, heat shock proteins, and metabolism. Protein-protein interaction and gene ontology analysis indicated that these proteins were involved in various biological pathways, including protein folding, metabolism, and cellular responses to stress. Supplementing cultured fibroblasts with IOVs resulted in the expression of the pluripotency marker OCT4 and the early trophoblastic marker CDX2 and increased expression of the corresponding mRNAs together with increasing KLF4 and SALL4 expression. IOV treatment of fibroblasts for 14 consecutive days resulted in changes in cell morphology, with increased expression of ZEB2 and YBX3 as markers for epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). These results provide a rationale for further characterization of IOVs, investigation of potential reprogramming capabilities for EMT, and the generation of induced pluripotent or oligopotent stem cells.

Molecules 2021; 26:7215. [PMID: 34885797 PMCID: PMC8659116 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26237215] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2021] [Revised: 11/22/2021] [Accepted: 11/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
The beneficial effect of antioxidant supplementation in maturation culture media of sow oocytes was evaluated by the expression quantification of apoptotic genes and the genes that ensure stability of germ cells during fertilization. The oocytes were cultivated for 44 h in conventional medium (C) or in medium supplemented with 105 µM rosmarinic acid (R) and 0.5 mM ascorbic acid (A) and classified into three quality classes by morphological observation from which the total RNA was isolated. The gene expression of Ptx3 and the apoptotic regulator p53, Bax and BCL-2 were evaluated by quantitative PCR technique. The decreased expression of the Bax gene in the A and R groups, compared to the control, indicates a protective role of antioxidants in the cells. Cell homeostasis was maintained, as reflected in the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 in class I COCs (cumulus-oocyte complex) regardless of the experimental group, indicating minimum cellular stress. The expression of p53 genes was higher in all class III COC, but in A1 and R1 the expression was lower than in C1, and a similar Ptx-3 gene decreased significantly in groups A1, A2, A3 and R1 compared with control groups. Antioxidant supplementation showed beneficial effects on all morphological classes of pig COCs.

Proteome of fluid from human ovarian small antral follicles reveals insights in folliculogenesis and oocyte maturation. Hum Reprod 2021; 36:756-770.

Abstract
STUDY QUESTION Is it possible to identify by mass spectrometry a wider range of proteins and key proteins involved in folliculogenesis and oocyte growth and development by studying follicular fluid (FF) from human small antral follicles (hSAF)? SUMMARY ANSWER The largest number of proteins currently reported in human FF was identified in this study analysing hSAF where several proteins showed a strong relationship with follicular developmental processes. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Protein composition of human ovarian FF constitutes the microenvironment for oocyte development. Previous proteomics studies have analysed fluids from pre-ovulatory follicles, where large numbers of plasma constituents are transferred through the follicular basal membrane. This attenuates the detection of low abundant proteins, however, the basal membrane of small antral follicles is less permeable, making it possible to detect a large number of proteins, and thereby offering further insights in folliculogenesis. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION Proteins in FF from unstimulated hSAF (size 6.1 ± 0.4 mm) were characterised by mass spectrometry, supported by high-throughput and targeted proteomics and bioinformatics. The FF protein profiles from hSAF containing oocytes, capable or not of maturing to metaphase II of the second meiotic division during an IVM (n = 13, from 6 women), were also analysed. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS We collected FF from hSAF of ovaries that had been surgically removed from 31 women (∼28.5 years old) undergoing unilateral ovariectomy for fertility preservation. MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE In total, 2461 proteins were identified, of which 1108 identified for the first time in FF. Of the identified proteins, 24 were related to follicular regulatory processes. A total of 35 and 65 proteins were down- and up-regulated, respectively, in fluid from hSAF surrounding oocytes capable of maturing (to MII). We found that changes at the protein level occur already in FF from small antral follicles related to subsequent oocyte maturation. LIMITATIONS, REASONS FOR CAUTION A possible limitation of our study is the uncertainty of the proportion of the sampled follicles that are undergoing atresia. Although the FF samples were carefully aspirated and processed to remove possible contaminants, we cannot ensure the absence of some proteins derived from cellular lysis provoked by technical reasons. WIDER IMPLICATIONS OF THE FINDINGS This study is, to our knowledge, the first proteomics characterisation of FF from hSAF obtained from women in their natural menstrual cycle. We demonstrated that the analysis by mass spectrometry of FF from hSAF allows the identification of a greater number of proteins compared to the results obtained from previous analyses of larger follicles. Significant differences found at the protein level in hSAF fluid could predict the ability of the enclosed oocyte to sustain meiotic resumption. If this can be confirmed in further studies, it demonstrates that the viability of the oocyte is determined early on in follicular development and this may open up new pathways for augmenting or attenuating subsequent oocyte viability in the pre-ovulatory follicle ready to undergo ovulation.

Abstract
Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) is an important technique for biological science research. Cytoplasm injection cloning technology (CICT) was developed to improve the reprogramming efficiency as well as to overcome the limitations of SCNT. CICT uses an additional cytoplasm fused with an enucleated oocyte to restore the cytoplasmic volume of the cloned embryo, and this method could improve the reprogramming efficiency of the cloned embryo. In this study, we show that CICT can be adapted to mouse species to overcome the inefficiency of the SCNT method. In this study, results indicate that the two-cell embryo and blastocyst rates of cloned embryos with the use of the CICT method were significantly higher (p < 0.05) than that of the SCNT method (96.6% ± 1.1% vs. 86.7% ± 6.0%, 29.5% ± 2.6% vs. 22.1% ± 3.0%, respectively). Furthermore, the apoptotic cell number per blastocyst was significantly lower in the CICT group than that in the SCNT group (1.7 ± 0.2 vs. 2.9 ± 0.3, p < 0.05). Moreover, the acH3K9/K14 expression level in the CICT group was greater than that of the SCNT group (p < 0.05), and the relative acH3K56 level in the CICT group was significantly (p < 0.05) higher than that in the SCNT group. These results indicate that CICT helps improve the in vitro developmental competence and quality of cloned embryos.

Abstract
Maternal regulatory factors endow the oocyte with developmental competence in vivo, which might be absent in current in vitro maturation (IVM) systems, thereby compromising oocyte quality. In the present study, by employing RNA sequencing data analysis, we expect to identify potential contributing factors to support porcine oocyte maturation through binding to their receptors on the oolemma. Here, C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 12 (CXCL12), vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA), and Wingless-type MMTV integration site family member 5A (WNT5A), termed CVW, are selected and confirmed to be important maternal cytokines for porcine oocyte maturation. Combined supplementation of CVW promotes the nuclear maturation percentage from 57.2% in controls to 75.9%. More importantly, these maternal cytokines improve the developmental potential of matured oocytes by parthenogenesis, fertilization, and cloning, as their blastocyst formation efficiencies and total cell numbers are increased. CVW supplementation also enlarges perivitelline space and promotes cumulus expansion, which results in a more complete transzonal projection retraction on the zona pellucida, and a reduced incidence of polyspermy in fertilized oocytes. Meanwhile, inhibiting the CVW receptor-mediated signaling pathways severely impairs oocyte meiotic resumption and cumulus expansion during IVM. We further determine that maturation improvement by CVW is achieved through activating the MAPK pathway in advance and inhibiting the canonical WNT pathway at the end of the IVM period. These findings provide a new combination of three cytokines to promote the porcine IVM process, which also holds potential to be used in human assisted reproduction technologies as well as in other species.

Endo-siRNAs repress expression of SINE1B during in vitro maturation of porcine oocyte. Theriogenology 2019; 135:19-24.

Abstract
Approximately 40% of mammalian genome is made of transposable elements (TEs), and during specific biological processes, such as gametogenesis, they may be activated by global demethylation, so strict silencing mechanism is indispensable for genomic stability. Here, we performed small RNA-seq on Dicer1 knockdown (KD) oocytes in pig, and observed short interspersed nuclear elements 1B (SINE1B) derived endogenous small interfering RNAs (endo-siRNAs), termed SINE1B-siRNAs, were significantly decreased and their biogenesis was dependent on Dicer1 and transcript of SINE1B. Furthermore, by injection of mimics and inhibitors of the SINE1B-siRNAs into germinal vesicle-stage (GV-stage) oocytes, we found the maturation rate was significantly decreased by SINE1B-siRNAs, indicating the SINE1B-siRNAs are indispensible for in vitro maturation (IVM) of porcine oocyte. To figure out the mechanism, we checked the expression pattern and DNA methylation status of SINE1B during IVM of porcine oocytes, and demonstrated the SINE1B-siRNAs could repress SINE1B expression induced by hypomethylation at a post-transcriptional level. Our results suggest that during gametogenesis when the erasure of DNA methylation occurs, endo-siRNAs act as a chronic response to limit retrotransposon activation.

Abstract
Faithful repair of DNA double-strand breaks in mammalian oocytes is essential for meiotic maturation and embryonic development. In the present study we investigated the roles of Roscovitine and Trichostatin A (TSA) in DNA damage recovery during invitro maturation of porcine oocytes. Etoposide was used to trigger DNA damage in oocytes. When these DNA-damaged oocytes were treated with 2μM Roscovitine, 50nM TSA or both for 22h, first polar body extrusion and blastocyst formation in all treated groups were significantly improved compared with the etoposide-only group. The most significant improvement was observed when Roscovitine was present. Further immunofluorescent analysis of γH2A.X, an indicator of DNA damage, indicated that DNA damage was significantly decreased in all treated groups. This observation was further supported by analysing the relative mRNA abundance of DNA repair-related genes, including meiotic recombination 11 homolog A (MRE11A), breast cancer type 1 susceptibility protein (BRCA1), Recombinant DNA Repair Protein 51 (RAD51), DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (PRKDC) and X-ray cross complementing gene 4 (XRCC4). Compared with the etoposide-only group, the experimental group with combined treatment of Roscovitine and TSA showed a significant decrease of all genes at germinal vesicle and MII stages. The Roscovitine-only treatment group revealed a similar tendency. Together, these results suggest that Roscovitine and TSA treatments could increase the capacity of oocytes to recover from DNA damage by enlisting DNA repair processes.

Abstract
Air phase is an indispensable environmental factor affecting oocyte maturation and early
embryo development. Human exhaled air was previously proved to be a reliable and inexpensive
atmosphere that sustains normal early development of mouse and bovine embryos. However,
whether human exhaled air can support in vitro maturation (IVM) of porcine
oocytes is not yet known. To evaluate the feasibility of maturing oocytes in human exhaled
air, we examined oocyte morphology, BMP15 expression, nuclear and cytoplasmic
maturation. We found that cumulus expansion status, expression levels of BMP15
important for cumulus expansion and the rate of first polar body emission were similar
among human exhaled air, 5% O2 or 20% O2 in air after IVM of 44 h. Furthermore,
the percentage of metaphase II (MII) oocytes showing normal cortical and sub-membranous
localization of cortical granules and diffused mitochondrial distribution patterns is
comparable among groups. The cleavage, blastocyst rate and total cell number were not apparently
different for parthenogenetic activated and somatic cloned embryos derived from MII oocytes
matured in three air phases, suggesting oocytes matured in human exhaled air obtain normal
developmental competence. Taken together, human exhaled air can efficiently support
in vitro maturation of porcine oocytes and subsequent early embryonic development.

Abstract
Small noncoding RNAs (sncRNAs) play important roles in RNA interference (RNAi). In addition to microRNA (miRNA) and Piwi-interacting RNA (piRNA), one key member of sncRNAs group is endogenous small interfering RNA (endo-siRNA). Some studies do show the role of endo-siRNAs in Dicer and/or Ago mutants, however, the biological functions of specific endo-siRNAs remains mostly unanswered. In the study, we have performed a comparative analysis of endo-siRNAs present in porcine sperms, oocytes and zygotes, identified by deep sequencing and bioinformatics analysis. Further, we observe a large amount of endo-siRNAs specific binding on ORF2 and 3′ UTR of porcine L1 (L1-siRNAs). And, 9 L1-siRNAs generated from a dsRNA formed between L1 transcript and a newly identified an antisense noncoding RNA was characterized. We show the L1-siRNAs regulate early embryonic development by inhibiting the activity of L1 retrotransposition. This work can contribute to understanding the functional role of abundant endo-siRNAs in embryonic development.

Abstract
K (lysine) acetyltransferase 8 (KAT8), an acetyltransferase that specifically catalyzes histone H4 lysine 16 acetylation, is critical for key biological processes including cell proliferation and maintenance of genome stability. However, the role of KAT8 during preimplantation development in pigs remains unclear. Results herein showed that KAT8 mRNA is maternally derived and it is required for successful development of early embryos. An abundance of KAT8 transcripts are expressed in oocytes and its abundance continuously decreases throughout meiotic maturation and preimplantation development. In addition, KAT8 expression is insensitive to RNA polymerase II inhibitor after embryonic genome activation, suggesting its maternal origin. The levels of KAT8 mRNA and H4K16 acetylation were effectively knocked down by siRNA microinjection. Knockdown of KAT8 significantly reduced the blastocyst formation rate and total cell number per blastocyst. Analysis of trophectoderm lineage and marker of DNA double-strand breaks revealed that the impaired developmental competence and quality of embryos might be attributed to defects in both the first two lineages development and genome integrity. Taken together, these results demonstrate that maternal KAT8 is indispensible for porcine early embryo development potentially through maintaining the proliferation of the first two lineages and genome integrity.

Abstract
Differentiated cells can be reprogrammed by transcription factors, and these factors that are responsible for successful reprogramming need to be further identified. Here, we show that the neuronal repressor RE1-silencing transcription factor (REST) is rich in porcine oocytes and requires for nuclear transfer (NT)-mediated reprogramming through inhibiting TGFβ signaling pathway. REST was dramatically degraded after oocyte activation, but the residual REST was incorporated into the transferred donor nuclei during reprogramming in NT embryos. Inhibition of REST function in oocytes compromised the development of NT embryos but not that of IVF and PA embryos. Bioinformation analysis of putative targets of REST indicated that REST might function on reprogramming in NT embryos by inhibiting TGFβ pathway. Further results showed that the developmental failure of REST-inhibited NT embryos could be rescued by treatment of SB431542, an inhibitor of TGFβ pathway. Thus, REST is a newly discovered transcription factor that is required for NT-mediated nuclear reprogramming.

Abstract
The reprogramming process that leads to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) may benefit from adding oocyte factors to Yamanaka's reprogramming cocktail (OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, with or without MYC; OSK(M)). We previously searched for such facilitators of reprogramming (the reprogrammome) by applying label-free LC-MS/MS analysis to mouse oocytes, producing a catalog of 28 candidates that are (i) able to robustly access the cell nucleus and (ii) shared between mature mouse oocytes and pluripotent embryonic stem cells. In the present study, we hypothesized that our 28 reprogrammome candidates would also be (iii) abundant in mature oocytes, (iv) depleted after the oocyte-to-embryo transition, and (v) able to potentiate or replace the OSKM factors. Using LC-MS/MS and isotopic labeling methods, we found that the abundance profiles of the 28 proteins were below those of known oocyte-specific and housekeeping proteins. Of the 28 proteins, only arginine methyltransferase 7 (PRMT7) changed substantially during mouse embryogenesis and promoted the conversion of mouse fibroblasts into iPSCs. Specifically, PRMT7 replaced SOX2 in a factor-substitution assay, yielding iPSCs. These findings exemplify how proteomics can be used to prioritize the functional analysis of reprogrammome candidates. The LC-MS/MS data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD003093.

Abstract
In cattle, early embryonic failure plays a major role in the limitation of reproductive performance and is influenced by genetic effects. Suboptimal oocyte quality, including an inadequate store of maternal factors, is suspected to contribute to this phenomenon. In the present study, 13 Montbeliarde cows were phenotyped on oocyte quality, based on their ability to produce viable embryos after in vitro maturation, fertilisation and culture for 7 days. This discriminated two groups of animals, exhibiting developmental rates below 18.8% or above 40.9% (relative to cleaved embryos). Using microarrays, transcriptomic profiles were compared between oocytes collected in vivo from these two groups of animals. The difference in oocyte development potential was associated with changes in transcripts from 60 genes in immature oocytes and 135 genes in mature oocytes (following Bonferroni 5% correction). Of these, 16 and 32 genes were located in previously identified fertility quantitative trait loci. A subset of differential genes was investigated on distinct samples by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. For SLC25A16, PPP1R14C, ROBO1, AMDHD1 and MEAF6 transcripts, differential expression was confirmed between high and low oocyte potential animals. Further sequencing and searches for polymorphisms will pave the way for implementing their use in genomic selection.

Abstract
Mammalian oocytes possess factors to support fertilization and embryonic development, but knowledge on these oocyte-specific factors is limited. In the current study, we demonstrated that porcine oocytes with the first polar body collected at 33 h of in vitro maturation sustain IVF with higher sperm decondensation and pronuclear formation rates and support in vitro development with higher cleavage and blastocyst rates, compared with those collected at 42 h (P<0.05). Proteomic analysis performed to clarify the mechanisms underlying the differences in developmental competence between oocytes collected at 33 and 42 h led to the identification of 18 differentially expressed proteins, among which protein disulfide isomerase associated 3 (PDIA3) was selected for further study. Inhibition of maternal PDIA3 via antibody injection disrupted sperm decondensation; conversely, overexpression of PDIA3 in oocytes improved sperm decondensation. In addition, sperm decondensation failure in PDIA3 antibody-injected oocytes was rescued by dithiothreitol, a commonly used disulfide bond reducer. Our results collectively report that maternal PDIA3 plays a crucial role in sperm decondensation by reducing protamine disulfide bonds in porcine oocytes, supporting its utility as a potential tool for oocyte selection in assisted reproduction techniques.
