본 연구에서는 이러한 초기 난포 발달 과정 중 원시난포-1차 난포 변화과정 시기에 발현하는 유전자를 알아보고 자 수행하였다. 원시난포로만 이루어져 있는 생쥐의 생후 1일자 난소와 원시난포 및 1차 난포로만 이루어져 있는 5일자 난소의 RNA와 총 80개의 annealing control primer(ACP) primer를 사용하여 PCR을 수행하여 서로 다르게 발현하는 유전자 (differentially expressed genes; DEG) 41개를
The present study was conducted to investigate gene expression profile of mouse ovaries during the primordial-primary follicle transition. We isolated total RNA from mouse ovaries at day1(contains only primordial follicles) and day5(contains both primordial and primary follicles) and synthesized cDNA using annealing control primers(ACP, Seegene, Inc., Seoul, Korea). Using 80 different ACPs for PCR, we cloned, sequenced, and analyzed identities of 41 differentially expressed genes(DEGs). According to BLAST analysis, sequences of 33 clones significantly matched database entries, 4 clones were novel, and 4 clones were ESTs. We selected 8 DEGs with interesting functions, Anx11 and Pepp2-Pending highly expressed in day1 ovary, while Apg3/Autlp-like, BPOZ, Ches1, Kcmf1, NHE3, Nid2, Ninj1, SENP3, Suil-rsl, and TIAP/m-survivin highly expressed in days ovary, and confirmed their different expression between day1 ovaries and days ovaries using semi-quantitative RT-PCR. There was no false positive result. Using in situ hybridization, we found that almost all of genes studied were expressed in the oocyte from primordial follicle stage but expression decreased from primary follicle stage. Meanwhile their expression was increased in cuboidal granulosa cells. Different expression of BPOZ and TIAP/m-survivin between primordial and primary follicles was confirmed by using laser capture microdissection followed by real-time PCR BPOZ and TIAP/m-survivin expressed 4.5 and 3.4 fold higher in primary than primordial follicles, respectively. List of genes obtained from the present study will provide insights for the study of mechanism regulating primordial-primary follicle transition.
