Description
Paternal imprinting initiates in primordial germ cells (PGCs), and is considered largely completed at birth. The resulting postnatal spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) thenself-renew and proliferate to populate the testicular niche, with sexual maturation enabling productive gametogenesis. Overall design: mRNA profiles of neonatal wild type (WT) mice testis were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina HiSeq 2000 Examination of 2 different histone modifications in mouse spermatogonia Please note that ChIPSeq_Kitplus samples are samples isolated with MACS CD117 microbeads from Miltenyi and ChIPSeq_Kitminus are samples that were not positively selected for Kit.

Description
Vasoregression is a hallmark of vascular eye diseases but the mechanisms involved are still largely unknown. We have recently characterized a rat ciliopathy model which develops primary photoreceptor degeneration and secondary vasoregression. To improve the understanding of secondary vasoregression in retinal neurodegeneration, we used microarray techniques to compare gene expression profiles in this new model before and after retinal vasoregression. Differential gene expression was validated by quantitative RT-PCR, Western blot and immunofluorescence. Of the 374 genes regulated more than twofold, the MHC class II invariant chain CD74 yielded the strongest upregulation, and was allocated to activated microglial cells close to the vessels undergoing vasoregression. Pathway clustering identified genes of the immune system, inflammatory signaling, and components of the complement cascade upregulated during vasoregression. Furthermore, macroglial cells were markedly activated. Together, our data suggest that glial cells involved in retinal immune response participate in the initiation of vasoregression in the retina.

Description
Spermatogenesis has been well studied in rodents and invertebrates, but remains poorly understood in humans. As a step towards illuminating human spermatogenesis, we used single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNAseq) analysis to analyze neonatal and adult human testes. Clustering analysis of neonatal testes revealed 3 germ subsets, including cells with characteristics of primordial germ cells (PGCs), and more differentiated cells with gene expression profiles similar with adult spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs). We identified markers for these neonatal subsets, including protein markers for the PGC-like (PGCL) subset. Clustering analysis of the adult testis revealed 9 germ and 3 somatic cell subsets. Among the germ cell clusters are 4 undifferentiated spermatogonia (SPG) states, each marked by specific genes. One of the SPG states has characteristics suggesting it is enriched for SSCs. We identified protein markers specific for this state, including cell-surface proteins that we used to enrich for these cells. We mapped the timeline of male germ cell development from PGCs through fetal germ cells to differentiating adult SPG stages. We also defined somatic cell subsets in the human testis and traced their developmental trajectories. Together, our data provides a blueprint for understanding the development of the male germline and supporting somatic cells in humans. The germ cell subset markers we identified are candidates to be used for clinical applications, including SSC therapy for treating infertility. Overall design: Single cell sequencing from two neonatal and two adult testicular cells was performed. Cells were either enriched for ITGA6 expression or unfractionated before GEM capture

Description
Continuous sperm production is not necessary for the survival of the organism, but is essential to maintain a species. The process of spermatogenesis is comprised of three phases: mitotic proliferation, meiosis, and spermiogenesis. To illuminate germline intrinsic and extrinsic programs, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing on ~35K cells from the adult mouse testis. This analysis provides a comprehensive molecular atlas of the testis, identifying both known and novel cell types. We demonstrate for the first time the continuous nature of germ cell differentiation, provide molecular signatures and subtype-specific molecular markers, and identify several novel candidate regulators of spermatogenesis. Finally, we demonstrate in vivo using spatial mapping that germ and somatic cell molecular subtypes correspond to previously defined histological cell types residing at different stages of seminiferous epithelial cycle. Taken together, our results unveil the complexity of the testis, and provide a global, unbiased roadmap of the in vivo gametogenesis program. Overall design: Drop-seq of whole mouse testis and enriched populations. NOTE: As the initial submission of raw data only included partial run (extracted mouse cells) for some samples, all raw data for the following samples have been replaced to include the complete/original run for each sample (Feb 2019): GSM3069439, GSM3069440, GSM3069443-GSM3069448,GSM3069450, GSM3069451, GSM3069459-GSM3069463 All raw data for the 25 samples are paired-end, with 8 single-species samples + 17 mixed-species samples. For mixed-species samples, the major species is mouse, and the spike-in can be either human or monkey. The spike-in species were only used to confirm cells are not doublets by two-species mixing experiments, but not analyzed in processed data under GSE112393.
