项目摘要
Aneuploidies, or abnormal numbers of chromosomes in a cell, originate from errors in segregation of
chromosomes during the two highly regulated programs of cell division, mitosis and meiosis. The
consequences of aneuploidies of meiotic origins are devastating as they contribute to 35% of clinically
recognized miscarriages, 4% of still births, 20% of all birth defects and to virtually all germ cell tumors. There is
also a clear environmental contribution in the etiology of meiotic chromosome segregation errors as
compounds as diverse as plastics, pesticides and anti-anxiety drugs have been shown to cause meiotic
aneuploidies in mammals.
Despite the severe health outcomes of meiotic aneuploidies, the screening of environmental toxicants
for their ability to disrupt meiosis and cause aneuploidy has been severely lagging. This problem is inherent to
the complexity of the meiotic program which differs in part significantly from mitosis, cannot be efficiently
recapitulated in vitro and initiates early on during mammalian development within the confines of the embryonic
gonad. Thus, we currently lack the tools to efficiently and comprehensively interrogate our chemical
environment for its effect on meiotically-derived aneuploidies.
In this application, we propose the development a high-throughput screening approach that makes use
of the remarkable biological features of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, which as a meiotic model
system shows a high degree of conservation with humans. To this aim, we are building on a strategy
developed for the isolation of mutants defective in chromosome segregation during meiosis. In the K99 section
of the project, we will complete the changes in the design of the C. elegans transgenic strain used in this
strategy to make it suitable for toxicant screening. These changes include a multi-assayable luciferase/GFP
reporter system and an increased sensitivity by improving chemical penetration. We will test the validity of our
approach by performing two small scale screens against compounds with known aneugenic activity and
reproductive effects: one set of chemotherapeutic agents from the NCI and one of environmental toxicants
from the EPA. In the second phase (R00) of the project, we will move our system to a large scale, high-
throughput setting to screen two libraries, first the Toxcast Phase I 309 chemicals and then the Tox21 library of
about 10,000 compounds. Secondary validation first in C. elegans and in mammalian models will conclusively
establish the validity of the screen and likely lead to the identification of novel meiotic aneugenic compounds.
The collaborative basis of this project which combines our expertise with that of key researchers at EPA
and NIEHS and the tremendous training environment make us confident of the success of the approach.
Together, we will be able, for the first time, to assess the meiotic aneugenic activity of our environment and
improve our ability to predict toxicity to mammals and humans.
非整倍体,或细胞中异常数目的染色体,起源于错误的分离
染色体在细胞分裂、有丝分裂和减数分裂这两个高度调控的过程中。这个
起源于减数分裂的非整倍体的后果是毁灭性的,因为它们在临床上占35%
公认的流产,死产的4%,所有出生缺陷的20%,以及几乎所有生殖细胞肿瘤。的确有

尽管减数分裂非整倍体带来了严重的健康后果,但环境毒物的筛选
因为它们破坏减数分裂并导致非整倍体的能力一直严重滞后。这个问题是固有的

大约10,000种化合物。在线虫和哺乳动物模型中首先进行二次验证将是决定性的

该项目的合作基础是将我们的专业知识与环保局主要研究人员的专业知识相结合
NIEHS和巨大的培训环境使我们对这种方法的成功充满信心。
通过合作,我们将第一次能够评估我们环境的减数分裂非优生活动和
提高我们预测对哺乳动物和人类毒性的能力。
