Abstract
The invention provides a method for transdifferentiating female reproductive stem cells into functional sperms and application thereof. The invention provides a method for inducing female reproductive stem cells to differentiate into haploid spermatids for the first time. The method can provide a new strategy for breeding animals such as high-quality cows.
Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of assisted reproduction, and particularly relates to a method for transdifferentiation of female reproductive stem cells into functional sperms and application of the method.
Background
The international health organization stipulates that the sperms of the male are not less than 2 million per milliliter, and if the sperms are less than 2 million, the male is classified as oligospermia. The causes of oligospermia are many, including endogenous factors such as varicocele, cryptorchidism, genital tract infection, and autoimmune production of antisperm antibodies. Some exogenous factors also cause oligospermia. There are also some idiopathic oligozoospermia of unknown etiology. Oligospermia causes male sterility, and more people suffer from the problem and have great influence on fertility. Therefore, artificial induction of sperm production in vitro is a feasible approach for the treatment of oligospermia.
Stem cells are a generic term for a group of cells with self-renewal and multipotentiality. The stem cells can be classified into totipotent stem cells, pluripotent stem cells and unipotent stem cells according to the differentiation potential of the stem cells. An Embryonic Stem cell (ES/ESC cell) is a cell isolated from an early embryo or primitive gonad, and can be differentiated into various tissues while having the ability to proliferate indefinitely in vitro. Embryonic stem cells, as an undifferentiated cell, have totipotency, i.e., the property of developing into a variety of different cells. Wherein the human embryonic stem cells can differentiate into various cell tissues, including trophoblast cells, nerve cells, glial cells, hematopoietic cells, cardiac muscle cells, and the like. Morphologically, embryonic stem cells have large nuclei and small cytoplasm, and are relatively simple in structure, with the nuclei of embryonic stem cells being mostly euchromatin. An embryonic stem cell is a highly undifferentiated cell. It has developmental totipotency and can differentiate all tissues and organs of adult animals, including germ cells. However, the differentiation of embryonic stem cells into long spermatids has technical difficulties, and it is difficult to obtain high-activity long spermatids with intact tail structures.
Female germ stem cells are a class of stem cells isolated from the ovaries of animals. Scientists have previously determined that oocytes cease to be produced as soon as a female mammal is born, and have therefore only been reduced; in the previous work of the present inventors, the female germ stem cells were found in the ovaries of adult mammals, and oocytes were continuously differentiated.
However, the ability of female germ stem cells to develop in vitro into functional sperm cells and their in vitro developmental characteristics have not been reported.

Culture and induction method
In the invention, the female germ stem cells are used as starting cells for the first time and are mixed with testicular somatic cells to successfully induce and generate spermatids. Based on the characteristics of the female reproductive stem cells, the inventors have conducted extensive research experiments, culture for induction and induction protocols. The culture and induction method comprises the steps of separating, mixing and pre-culturing female reproductive stem cells and testicular somatic cells, and performing stage 1 induction and stage 2 induction. Under the action of in vitro culture conditions of a microenvironment consisting of testicular body cells, cytokines (activin, BMP2, BMP4, BMP7, FSH, BPE, testosterone), all-trans Retinoic Acid (RA) and the like, the epigenetic state and gene expression of the Y-chromosome-free female germ stem cells are remarkably changed, male meiosis can be completed, and functional sperm-like cells can be developed. The differentiation system of the present invention for differentiating female reproductive stem cells into sperm cells is schematically shown in FIG. 1.
Accordingly, the present invention provides a method for the in vitro production of functional sperm comprising: taking female reproductive stem cells as starting cells, mixing the starting cells with testicular somatic cells, and performing pre-culture and induced differentiation; functional sperm are produced from the induced differentiation product. During the culture, fresh medium may be replaced according to the culture conditions.
In the invention, the female reproductive stem cell can be a female reproductive stem cell from an animal body, and can also be a female reproductive stem cell which is expanded and cultured/passaged by the prior art in the field. For example, the present inventors have expanded female reproductive stem cells in previous studies, and these in vitro expanded female reproductive stem cells can be used. Preferably, female germ stem cells from animals and cells passaged therefrom are used.
As a preferred mode of the present invention, the female reproductive stem cells include those obtained by culturing (expanding) the following method: placing female reproductive stem cells in an embryonic fibroblast (STO cell) feeder layer, and culturing in a cell culture medium containing sodium pyruvate, L-glutamine, beta-mercaptoethanol, non-essential amino acids, epidermal growth factor, human basic fibroblast growth factor, glial cell growth factor, and leukemia inhibitory factor.
In the present invention, the testicular somatic cells are preferably animals derived from germ cells that remain stable after isolation. The testicular somatic cells are isolated from KITw/wvA mouse.
In a preferred mode of the present invention, the pre-culturing comprises: the female germ stem cells and testicular somatic cells are mixed at a ratio of 1:10 to 10:1, preferably 1:5 to 5:1, more preferably 1:2 to 2:1, and even more preferably 1: 1. Culturing in a cell culture medium; preferably the cell culture medium is a serum-containing medium. Preferably, the medium used for the mixed culture is a liquid medium (culture solution). Preferably, the medium used for mixed culture contains fetal bovine serum. The inventors found that, according to the characteristics of the female reproductive stem cells, the mixed culture at this stage greatly promotes the efficiency of the subsequent induction culture stage; if the induction culture is performed directly, the transformation efficiency is relatively low and the induction phase takes longer.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the inducing differentiation of the female germ stem cell and the testicular somatic cell comprises: induction in stage 1: inducing with Knockout Serum Replacement (KSR), BMP-2, BMP-4, BMP-7, all-trans retinoic acid and activin A; induction in the 2 nd stage: induction with Knockout serum replacement, testosterone, FSH and pituitary extract. The inventors have optimized the amount of components, e.g. the Knockout serum replacement preferably 20 ± 4%, based on the characteristics of the female germ stem cells, and have found that the expression of the spermatogenesis marker, the cell product, after the induction phase, is barely detectable when the Knockout serum replacement is 10% or less. As another example, the pituitary extract is preferably 50. + -.15 mg/mL, which, if at a lower level, results in a low induction efficiency.
Unless otherwise specified, the medium used for the culture or for the induction in the present invention is a liquid medium (culture solution).
The generation of the functional sperm from the differentiation inducing product comprises the following steps: observing the induced differentiation products, and separating functional sperms with tail structures at the tail ends. It is understood that the sperm with tail structure is more similar in shape and vitality to the natural sperm.
Preferably, the amounts of the components include: 1mM sodium pyruvate, 2mM L-glutamine, 50 μ M β -mercaptoethanol, 1mM non-essential amino acid, 20ng/mL mouse epidermal growth factor, 10ng/mL human basic fibroblast growth factor, 10ng/mL glial cell growth factor, 10ng/mL mouse leukemia inhibitory factor;
preferably, the individual components are added to the cell culture medium; more preferably, the cell culture medium is MEM α medium; more preferably, the cell culture medium is a serum-containing medium.
The culture method and the culture medium of the present invention can be used for two-dimensional or three-dimensional culture systems.
In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the female germ stem cells and testicular somatic cells are first obtained, mixed, and then transdifferentiation into sperm cells is achieved by pre-culturing and adjusting cell growth factors and other components in the culture medium in stages. The first stage (stage 1) of the staged culture is a component that promotes growth and induces differentiation mainly, and the later stage is a component that matures and differentiates mainly. The invention induces and differentiates the female reproductive stem cell into the spermatid within about 16 to 18 days (preferably 17 days) of in vitro culture, and verifies the characteristics and functions of the obtained spermatid through a series of in vitro experiments (cell staining, RT-PCR, flow identification of haploid cells, immunofluorescence method observation of formation of synaptophytic complex and meiosis process, and the like) and in vivo experiments of animals.
The present invention also provides a method of preparing an animal comprising: (1) functional sperm cells were prepared as described previously; (2) introducing the functional sperm of (1) into the cytosol of an egg cell, fertilizing the egg, and developing in vitro (e.g., to the 2-cell stage, 4-cell stage, or blastocyst stage); preferably, the cells are transplanted to uterus, implanted and developed into animals at a proper stage of in vitro development.
In a specific embodiment of the invention, functional sperm (spermatozoa-like cells) are successfully induced to differentiate from female germ stem cells. In vitro transdifferentiation system, female germ stem cell can express male meiosis and spermatogenesis markers STRA8, SCP1, SCP2, SCP3, PRM1, ACROSIN, TNP1, HAPRIN, etc., and immunofluorescence method can observe formation of synaptal complex (SCP1/SCP3) and meiosis process (thin line, even line, thick line and double line). The sperm-like cells injected into the oocyte plasma can develop in vitro to cause blastocysts, and 2 cells are transplanted into the uterus of a mouse to produce offspring. The mice born after transplantation give birth by spontaneous birth. The sequence of the birth offspring containing GFP is identified by a Sourthern blot method. Bisulfite methylation sequencing identifies that the methylation state of the genes of the birth offspring blots is not changed.
Several main features and advantages of the method of the invention are as follows: firstly, the human cell growth factor and the chemical molecule are adopted in the whole culture system, and no exogenous gene related to the reprogramming or transdifferentiation function is introduced (but a reporter gene can be introduced), so that the interference of the exogenous gene on the genome stability of the original stem cell and the transplantation potential safety hazard related to the exogenous cell can be avoided. Secondly, the sperm cell prepared by the female germ stem cell has a tail-shaped structure and good activity.
