When practice makes perfect: Repeated mating leads to an increase in germline stem cell division rate in the Drosophila testis, which involves the G-protein signaling pathway.
Selected by Nadia EdelszteinCategories: cell biology, developmental biology, molecular biology
Background:
Tissue homeostasis relies greatly on the ability of stem cells to keep a balance between their proliferative capacity to sustain a source of undifferentiated progenitor cells and the differentiation of their daughter cells. This ‘homeostasis-prone’ response, i.e.: the balance between proliferation and differentiation, is conserved between groups as different as humans and flies and is sensitive to changes in environment [1-5]. Upon injury or environmental challenges, such as temperature changes or nutrient availability, stem cells can alter their mitotic activity. For example, while mouse hematopoietic stem cells increase their division rate during pregnancy [1], Drosophila intestinal stem cells can divide more upon ablation of differentiated intestinal cells [2].
In the Drosophila testis when a germline stem cell (GSC) divides, it gives rise to two daughter cells, one of them remains as a GSC while the other one —the gonialblast— undergoes four rounds of mitotic divisions, generating 16 spermatogonia [6]. In turn, these spermatogonia enter a tissue-specific differentiation process characterized by size growth followed by two consecutive meiotic divisions and a final series of dramatic morphological changes that result in elongated spermatids. Each GSC division can only produce 64 spermatids [6]. Thus, a higher or lower sperm output may reflect GSC status and/or their division rate.
But what would happen if there was a ‘higher demand’ for sperm release? In this preprint the authors sought to elucidate whether mating and/or mating-frequency influences GSC division rate.
Key findings
- Repeated mating increases the percentage of dividing GSCs
The authors analyze the percentage of GSCs in mitosis (MIGSC) through immunofluorescent staining for the mitosis marker phosphorylated Histone-H3 in testes from mated and non-mated (isolated) wild type Drosophila males. They observe a significant increase in the MIGSC of mated males when compared to the isolated ones and describe the existence of variation within experimental groups regarding the number of GSCs present in each testis.
The Drosophila mating behaviour follows a series of events that are genetically controlled and includes visual, chemical, and physical contact. To pinpoint the cause for MIGSC increase, the authors dissected the components of the mating process by exposing males to virgin females —including visualization, smelling and touching—, allowing for courtship behaviour using males that cannot distinguish between males and females due to mutation of the fruitless (fru) gene and using decapitated virgin females. In none of these scenarios did the MIGSC increase relative to controls.
When males were housed with varying number (1, 2 or 3) of virgin females for 24 h, MIGSC did not increase. However, when males were exposed to 3 females for 48 h or 72 h, an increase in MIGSC was observed, suggesting a need for repetitive mating in order to increase GSC division rate. Interestingly, this change in division rate was reversible, as seen when males moved to solitude after the 3-day mating period abolished the increase in MIGSC.
- Sperm pool reduction is induced by mating
Sperm demand was assessed through comparison of seminal vesicles between non-mated and mated males. Making use of the genetic powerhouse that is Drosophila, sperm was labelled at the body —Don Juan-GFP— and at the head —ProtamineB-GFP (Mst35B-GFP) line—, thus allowing for total sperm and single sperm head count within the seminal vesicles, respectively.
Qualitatively, non-mated males had seminal vesicles filled with GFP-positive sperm heads both wide (class 1, as assessed by the authors) and thin (class 2), while mated males showed only few GFP-positive sperm and areas not filled with GFP (class 3). Furthermore, the authors introduce an automated procedure to calculate the volume occupied by Mst35B-GFP-positive sperm heads per seminal vesicle in all focal planes. With this approach, they observed that sperm heads of mated males took significantly less volume within the seminal vesicles than the sperm heads in non-mated males, and that the total volume occupied by sperm became smaller with every day of mating. The automated procedure also allowed them to estimate the number of sperm per seminal vesicle, being approximately 2000 in non-mated males versus 500 in males mated for 2-3 days.
- G-protein signaling and seven GPCRs participate in mating-induced MIGSC increase
Since mating in Drosophila has a strong behavioural component, suggesting a potential role for neuronal control in GSC divisions, the authors focused on a signaling pathway known to be stimulated during neural activity, the G-protein signaling pathway [7,8]. Classical G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are typically associated with trimeric complexes of G-proteins (α,β,γ). Activation of the GPCRs leads to dissociation of Gα and the Gβ/γ complex. Gα and Gβ/γ then diffuse along the plasma membrane and activate downstream signal transducers [9,10]. In Drosophila there are six Gα, three Gβ, and two Gγ proteins, with few known examples associating a specific Drosophila G-protein with an upstream GPCR [9,10].
When abolishing G-protein signaling with a dominant negative version of Drosophila Gγ1, males showed no increase of MIGSC upon mating —contrary to control animals— showing that signaling via G-proteins is required for this MIGSC increase. To further validate participation of G-protein signaling, conserved signal transducers PKC98E (one of the Drosophila Protein Kinase C proteins) and Inositol-triphosphate 3-Kinase (IP3K) were abolished through RNAi. In these animals, mating did not increase MIGSC.
From tips of wild type testis, 35 classical GPCRs were identified through Next Generation Sequencing. Silencing expression of seven of them —Mth, Mth-l5, Octβ2R, Serotonin receptors 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B and 5-HT7, or CG12290 (a predicted GPCR)— in the germline with RNAi prevented MIGSC increase.
These results suggest that the regulation of GSC division rate is a very complex process that could involve the participation of multiple GPCRs that are needed either alone or in a concerted manner.
Personal thoughts:
I believe this work nicely shows how a classical and robust approach can still help elucidate novel functions of relevant pathways. By using controlled mating and the vastly used Gal4-UAS system, the authors were able to identify an increase in GSC division rate and a reduction in sperm pool when males participated in sequential mating. Furthermore, they show a novel role for GPCRs in regulating GSC division frequency.
Involvement of such a ubiquitous pathway as G-protein signaling could open up a whole new set of connections between systems and tissues. Is the brain telling the gonad what to do? Is the mechanical action of mating what triggers the G-protein signaling pathway that results in an increase of GSC division? What other signals could be participating?
Questions for the authors:
- When testing repeated mating for 48 or 72 h, have you considered using males with sperm markers to assess how many times each male mated, by looking at the female tract?
- Could sperm quality be different amongst single-mated, repeatedly-mated and repeatedly-mated-reversed-to-solitude males? Have you assessed sperm parameters (flagellar beat, wave, motility, etc)?
