Journal Article
Knockout of the Transducin-Like Enhancer of Split 6 Gene Affects the Proliferation and Cell Cycle Process of Mouse Spermatogonia
2020
Overview
Tle6 (Transducin-like enhancer of split 6) is a member of the Tle co-repressor superfamily, which is expressed in various tissues of invertebrates and vertebrates and participates in the developmental process. However, the current research has only found that the TLE6 mutation is related to infertility, and the key regulatory mechanism of TLE6 remains to be explored. In this study, we combined Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)-Cas9 and the Tet-on system to construct mouse spermatogonia cell lines that induced TLE6 protein knockout (KO), and studied the effect of Tle6 on mouse spermatogonia proliferation and the cell cycle. The results showed that, after drug induction, the Tle6 gene in mouse spermatogonia was successfully knocked out at the genome and protein levels, and the Tle6 gene knockout efficiency was confirmed to be 87.5% with gene-cloning technology. At the same time, we also found that the mouse spermatogonia proliferated slowly after the Tle6 knockout. Using flow cytometry, we found that the cells did not undergo significant apoptosis, and the number of cells in the S phase decreased. After real-time quantity PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis, we found that the expression of cell-proliferation-related genes, CCAAT enhancer-binding protein α(C/ebp α), granulocyte-colony stimulating factor(G-csf), cyclin-dependent kinases 4(Cdk 4), Cyclin E, proliferating cell nuclear antigen(Pcna), and S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 (Skp2) was significantly reduced, which further affected cell growth. In summary, Tle6 can regulate spermatogonia cell proliferation and the cell cycle and provide a scientific basis for studying the role of TLE6 on spermatogenesis.
