Introduction Diabetes refers to a group of polygenic metabolic diseases which may be portrayed by hyperglycemia leading to the alterations in carbohydrate, protein as well as fat metabolism, which in turn leads to the defects in the action of insulin (ADA, 2012). Once the food is ingested, it gets digested in to smaller components like carbohydrates and starch which can be converted to maltose by the action of amylase enzyme, which may be further broken down in to monosaccharide such as glucose.

  • Mouse Fscn3 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)
    https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Fscn3 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Fscn3 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Fscn3 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_019569 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000029707 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 6. 7 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAG stop codon in exon 6 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000031719). Exon 2 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Fscn3 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP24-176I9 as template. Cas9, gRNA and targeting vector will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for cKO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Exon 2 starts from about 9.71% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 2 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 1 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 1817 bp, and the size of intron 2 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 839 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~1197 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.

Abstract Background: Ovarian folliculogenesis in mammals is a complex process involving interactions between germ and somatic cells. Carefully orchestrated expression of transcription factors, cell adhesion molecules and growth factors are required for success. We have identified a germ-cell specific, basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor, FIGLA (Factor In the GermLine, Alpha) and demonstrated its involvement in two independent developmental processes: formation of the primordial follicle and coordinate expression of zona pellucida genes. Results: Taking advantage of Figla null mouse lines, we have used a combined approach of microarray and Serial Analysis of Gene Expression (SAGE) to identify potential downstream target genes.

  • Mammalian Male Germ Cells Are Fertile Ground for Expression Profiling Of
    REPRODUCTIONREVIEW Mammalian male germ cells are fertile ground for expression profiling of sexual reproduction Gunnar Wrobel and Michael Primig Biozentrum and Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics, Klingelbergstrasse 50-70, 4056 Basel, Switzerland Correspondence should be addressed to Michael Primig; Email: [email protected] Abstract Recent large-scale transcriptional profiling experiments of mammalian spermatogenesis using rodent model systems and different types of microarrays have yielded insight into the expression program of male germ cells. These studies revealed that an astonishingly large number of loci are differentially expressed during spermatogenesis. Among them are several hundred transcripts that appear to be specific for meiotic and post-meiotic germ cells. This group includes many genes that were pre- viously implicated in spermatogenesis and/or fertility and others that are as yet poorly characterized. Profiling experiments thus reveal candidates for regulation of spermatogenesis and fertility as well as targets for innovative contraceptives that act on gene products absent in somatic tissues. In this review, consolidated high density oligonucleotide microarray data from rodent total testis and purified germ cell samples are analyzed and their impact on our understanding of the transcriptional program governing male germ cell differentiation is discussed.

The aim of this research was to further investigate the effect of vitamin E in sheep on Spermatogenesis spermatogenesis and its regulatory mechanisms using RNA-seq. Thirty male Hu lambs were Male Hu lamb randomly divided into three groups. The animals received 0, 200 or 2000 IU/day vitamin E RNA-seq dietary supplementation for 105 days, and its effects were subsequently evaluated. The results indicate vitamin E supplementation increased the number of germ cells in the testes and epidi- dymides. The positive effects were reduced, however, in animals that received 2000 IU/d vitamin E. Using the RNA-seq procedure, there was detection of a number of differentially expressed genes such as NDRG1, FSCN3 and CYP26B1 with these genes being mainly related to the reg- ulation of spermatogenesis. Supplementation with 2000 IU/d vitamin E supplementation resulted in a lesser abundance of skeleton-related transcripts such as TUBB, VIM and different subtypes of collagen, and there was also an effect on the ECM-receptor interaction pathway.

  • The R109H Variant of Fascin-2, a Developmentally Regulated Actin Crosslinker in Hair-Cell Stereocilia, Underlies Early-Onset Hearing Loss of DBA/2J Mice
    The Journal of Neuroscience, July 21, 2010 • 30(29):9683–9694 • 9683 Cellular/Molecular The R109H Variant of Fascin-2, a Developmentally Regulated Actin Crosslinker in Hair-Cell Stereocilia, Underlies Early-Onset Hearing Loss of DBA/2J Mice Jung-Bum Shin,1,2 Chantal M.

A nonsynonymous nucleotide substitution in the mouse fascin-2 gene (Fscn2) is responsible for this phenotype, confirmed by wild-type BAC transgene rescue of hearing loss in DBA/2J mice. In chickens and mice, FSCN2 protein is abundant in hair-cell stereocilia, the actin-rich structures comprising the mechanically sensitive hair bundle, and is concentrated toward stereocilia tips of the bundle’s longest stereocilia. FSCN2 expression increases when these stereocilia differentially elongate, suggesting that FSCN2 controls filament growth, stiffens exposed stereocilia, or both. Because ahl8 accelerates hearing loss only in the presence of mutant cadherin 23, a component of hair-cell tip links, mechanotransduction and actin crosslinking must be functionally interrelated. Introduction espin, has very short stereocilia, and is profoundly deaf (Zheng et Hair cells of the inner ear detect and transduce mechanical dis- al., 2000).

Craig Venter Institute, Rockville, Maryland 20850, USA We have used massively parallel signature sequencing (MPSS) to sample the transcriptomes of 32 normal human tissues to an unprecedented depth, thus documenting the patterns of expression of almost 20,000 genes with high sensitivity and specificity. The data confirm the widely held belief that differences in gene expression between cell and tissue types are largely determined by transcripts derived from a limited number of tissue-specific genes, rather than by combinations of more promiscuously expressed genes. Expression of a little more than half of all known human genes seems to account for both the common requirements and the specific functions of the tissues sampled. A classification of tissues based on patterns of gene expression largely reproduces classifications based on anatomical and biochemical properties.

Davis, Stanford University School of Medicine, Palo Alto, CA, March 15, 2007 (received for review October 12, 2006) We report a cross-species expression profiling analysis of the Gene Ontology Consortium (20), shows that genes known or human, mouse, and rat male meiotic transcriptional program, using predicted to be important for meiosis and reproduction are enriched germ cell populations, whole gonads, and high-density significantly enriched among loci expressed in testicular cell oligonucleotide microarrays (GeneChips). Among 35% of the types (13). Thus, profiling experiments likely help identify protein-coding genes present in rodent and human genomes that factors important for the meiotic developmental pathway in both were found to be differentially expressed between germ cells and yeast (3, 4) and mammals (14). somatic controls, a key group of 357 conserved core loci was In this study, enriched mitotic, meiotic, and postmeiotic germ identified that displays highly similar meiotic and postmeiotic cells were compared with somatic Sertoli cells to select differ- patterns of transcriptional induction across all three species.

  • Transcriptome Profiling of Porcine Testis Tissue Reveals Genes Related
    Son et al. BMC Veterinary Research (2020) 16:161 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12917-020-02373-9 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Transcriptome profiling of porcine testis tissue reveals genes related to sperm hyperactive motility Maren van Son1* , Nina Hårdnes Tremoen2,3, Ann Helen Gaustad1,2, Dag Inge Våge3, Teklu Tewoldebrhan Zeremichael2, Frøydis Deinboll Myromslien2 and Eli Grindflek1 Abstract Background: Sperm hyperactive motility has previously been shown to influence litter size in pigs, but little is known about the underlying biological mechanisms. The aim of this study was to use RNA sequencing to investigate gene expression differences in testis tissue from Landrace and Duroc boars with high and low levels of sperm hyperactive motility. Boars with divergent phenotypes were selected based on their sperm hyperactivity values at the day of ejaculation (day 0) (contrasts (i) and (ii) for Landrace and Duroc, respectively) and on their change in hyperactivity between day 0 and after 96 h liquid storage at 18 °C (contrast (iii)). Results: RNA sequencing was used to measure gene expression in testis. In Landrace boars, 3219 genes were differentially expressed for contrast (i), whereas 102 genes were differentially expressed for contrast (iii). Forty-one differentially expressed genes were identified in both contrasts, suggesting a functional role of these genes in hyperactivity regardless of storage. Zinc finger DNLZ was the most up-regulated gene in contrasts (i) and (iii), whereas the most significant differentially expressed gene for the two contrasts were ADP ribosylation factor ARFGAP1 and solute carrier SLC40A1, respectively. For Duroc (contrast (ii)), the clustering of boars based on their gene expression data did not reflect their difference in sperm hyperactivity phenotypes.
