Impact of seasonality, storage of semen, and sperm head‐shape on whole tissue methylation and expression of methylation responsive candidate genes in swine placenta and fetal livers from summer and winter breedings

Abstract: Epigenetics includes the study of external factors that can influence the expression of genes by altering the accessibility of DNA through methylation. To investigate the epigenetic influence of season, sperm head shape, and semen storage on placental and fetal tissues, pregnancies were generated in the summer or winter using boar semen from either least or most sperm head shape change, collected during cool or warm seasons, and stored as cooled‐extended or cryopreserved. The lowest (p < 0.05) ratios of 5‐meth… Show more

“…External stimuli, both maternal and paternal, have been shown to alter the placental epigenome in multiple species ( Deshpande and Balasinor, 2018 ). We have previously shown altered global methylation activity in the placenta derived from semen collected in cool or warm season and stored as cooled-extended or cryopreserved and then used to inseminate gilts in summer or winter ( Rempel et al, 2019 ). Briefly, placenta derived from winter breedings had reduced 5mC:5hmC activity.…”

“…Briefly, placenta derived from winter breedings had reduced 5mC:5hmC activity. Additionally, differences were detected in placental expression of genes with differentially methylated regions or genes responsive to methylation status due to semen collection, semen storage traits, and breeding season ( Rempel et al, 2019 ). In the current study, we used an epigenetic chromatin modifier RT 2 profiler array to determine regulatory epigenetic components in swine placenta that were altered by breeding season or semen characteristics.…”
