Project description:The inner uterine lining (endometrium) has been shown to have a distinct methylation pattern that changes throughout the menstrual cycle. However, not much is known about how the endometrial methylome affects endometrial receptivity to implanting embryo in the second half of the menstrual cycle. The aim of the present study was to use genome-wide technologies and a paired study design to characterize the endometrial methylome in pre-receptive and receptive endometrium sampled from 17 healthy women within the same menstrual cycle.

Project description:Impaired endometrial receptivity is one of the major causes of recurrent implantation failure (RIF), and the underlying molecular mechanism has not been fully elucidated. We demonstrated that Chromodomain Y like (CDYL) was highly expressed in the endometrium at mid-secretory phase during the normal menstrual cycles. However, the expression of CDYL was down-regulated in the endometrial tissues obtained from women with RIF, consistently with the protein level of LIF, which is the marker of endometrial receptivity. Knockdown of CDYL significantly decreased the cell migration of human endometrial Ishikawa cells and primary endometrial cells. Genomic analyses revealed that CDYL gene silencing resulted in decreased expression of many genes associated with cytoskeleton and migration regulation.

Project description:The objective of the study was to compare the microRNA content in uterine fluid from patients with recurrent implantation failure (RIF) to that of healthy fertile women. It is a descriptive laboratory study including healthy fertile women and patients with RIF, defined as three failed in vitro fertilization cycles with high quality embryos. Study subjects were instructed to monitor their menstrual cycles using a luteinizing hormone test kit. Uterine fluid was collected on day LH+ 7-9 by flushing with saline. Samples were processed for small RNA sequencing and results were analysed using bioinformatics. The main outcome measure was to identify differentially expressed miRNAs between patients with RIF and healthy fertile women.

Project description:Successful embryo implantation into a receptive endometrium requires mutual endometrial-embryo communication. Recently, the function of extracellular vehicles (EVs) in cell-to-cell interaction in embryo-maternal interactions has been investigated. We explored isolated endometrial derived EVs, using RL95-2 cells as a model of a receptive endometrium, influenced by menstrual cycle hormones estrogen (E2; proliferative phase) progesterone (P4; secretory phase) and estrogen plus progesterone (E2P4; the receptive phase). EV sized particles were isolated by differential centrifugation and size exclusion chromatography. Nanoparticle tracking analysis was used to examine the different concentration and size of particles and EV proteomic analysis per-formed using shotgun label-free mass spectrometry. Our results showed that although endome-trial derived EVs were secreted in numbers independent of hormonal stimulation, EVs sizes were statistically modified by it. Proteomics analysis showed that hormone treatment changes affect the endometrial EVs proteome, with proteins enhanced within the EV E2P4 group shown to be in-volved in different processes such as embryo implantation, endometrial receptivity, and embryo development, supporting the concept of a communication system between the embryo and the maternal endometrium via EVs.

Project description:Receptivity of the uterus is essential for embryo implantation and progression of pregnancy. Acquisition of receptivity involves major molecular and cellular changes in the endometrial lining of the uterus from its non-receptive state at ovulation, to its receptive state four days later. The precise molecular mechanisms underlying this transition remain to be fully characterized. Here, we aimed to generate a comprehensive profile of the uterine transcriptome in the peri-ovulatory and peri-implantation states, and to define the differences between them, in the mouse. High throughput RNA-sequencing was utilized to identify genes and pathways expressed in the endometrium of C57Bl/6 female mice on day 3.5 post-coitum after mating with BALB/c males, compared to the endometrium of unmated estrous females (n=3-4 biological replicates). RNA-sequencing and analysis using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis software revealed that, compared to the endometrium at estrus, 388 genes were differentially expressed in the endometrium on day 3.5 post-coitum (FDR ≤ 0.05). Several upstream regulators are implicated in the transition to receptivity including several cytokines, steroid hormones, prostaglandin E2, and vascular endothelial growth factor A. The transcriptional changes indicate substantial changes in the uterine immune and vascular systems during the pre-implantation phase, with the functional terms Angiogenesis, Chemotaxis, and Lymphangiogenesis predominating. This analysis confirms that the transcriptome of a receptive uterus is vastly different to the non-receptive uterus and identifies several genes and regulatory pathways not previously associated with implantation. This dataset will serve as a valuable tool and resource for future research on the molecular mechanisms of uterine receptivity.

Project description:The objective of the study was to compare the transcriptome of the primary eutopic and ectopic endometrial stromal cells isolated from paired eutopic endometrium and peritoneal lesions from women with endometriosis (N = 5) exposed to normoxic (20% O2) or hypoxic (1% O2) conditions for 48 hours. Induced expression of TGFBI was found in ectopic cells and ectopic & eutopic cells exposed to hypoxia at both RNA and protein (secreted to the culture media) levels. TGFBI gene and protein expression ex vivo in euoptic endometrium of women with endometriosis and controls (women without endometriosis) was found to be increased in the proliferative phase of menstrual cycle compared to secretory phase.

Project description:Endometriosis is associated with aberrant gene expression in the eutopic endometrium of women with disease. To determine if the development of endometriotic lesions directly impacts eutopic endometrial gene expression, we sequentially analyzed the eutopic endometrium across the time course of disease progression in a baboon model of induced disease. Endometriosis was induced in baboons by intraperitoneal inoculation of autologous menstrual endometrium. Eutopic endometria were collected at 9-11 days postovulation) in five time points: 1, 3, 6-7, 10-12, and 15-16 months after disease induction and compared with tissue from disease-free baboons. We used microarrays to identify differentially expressed genes between time points. Sequential analysis of the same animals during disease progression demonstrated an early disease insult and a transitory dominance of an estrogenic phenotype. However, as the disease progressed, a progesterone-resistant phenotype became evident. Endometriosis was experimentally induced in Papio anubis female baboons (n = 4) by intraperitoneal inoculation with menstrual endometrium on two consecutive menstrual cycles. Baboons with spontaneous endometriosis (n = 2) were also included in this study with an unknown duration of disease. Control endometrium was similarly harvested from animals (n = 4) with no previous surgeries and with no visible disease. The progression of disease was monitored in each animal by consecutive laparoscopies and video recording at 1 (n = 2), 3 (n = 4), 6-7 (n = 4), 10-12, (n = 4), and 15-16 (n = 3) months after inoculation during a window of 9-11 days postovulation. Eutopic endometrial tissues were harvested and were snap frozen in liquid nitrogen for RNA extraction. Additionally, menstrual endometrium was harvested on Days 1-2 of menses using a Unimar Pipelle (Cooper Surgical Inc., Shelton, CT) immediately prior to laparoscopy. Blood samples were collected daily from days 7 through 16 postmenstruation of menstrual cycles.

Project description:Research question: What are the proteomic and phosphoproteomic differences between the endometrium of women with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and healthy control women during the proliferative (P) and secretory (S) phases of the menstrual cycle? Design: The present study collected a total of 54 endometrial samples during either P or S phases from women with RPL (n = 28) or healthy control (n = 26). Comprehensive proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses were conducted using label-free liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (n = 44) and verified through western blotting (n = 10). Three comparison groups were established, including the total RPL endometrium compared to the total control (R/C), proliferating endometrium compared to control (RP/CP), and secretory endometrium compared to control (RS/CS). Results: Differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) and differentially phosphorylated proteins (DPPs) were respectively identified in the three comparison groups. Combining pathway enrichment, network analysis, and soft clustering analysis, we identified the insulin/cyclic nucleotide signaling pathway and AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway as the major contributors to the aberration of RPL endometrium. Western blotting verified altered expression of four proteins, including PRKAR1B, ADCY3, PRKAA2, and LPIN2.Conclusions: This exploratory study provides insights into the differentiated protein expression and phosphorylation profiles of RPL endometrium in both P and S phases. The results highlight potential proteins associated with RPL pathogenesis that may serve as potential indicators for RPL. The findings contribute to the identification of potential targets for RPL treatment as well as the pathogenesis of RPL.

Project description:Background: Endometrial organoids are useful tools for studying endometrial biology but are derived from endoemtrial tissue obtained invasively from biopsies and mostly from women not taking hormonal medication. To increase the proportion of women from which endometrial organoids can be obtained, we sought to compare endometrial organoids derived from menstrual fluid and hormone-treated endometrium with standard endometrial organoids. Purpose: To determine if organoids derived from menstrual fluid and hormone-treated endometrium share features with standard endometrial organoids. Methods: RNA sequencing was performed on passage 3 day 7 menstrual fluid organoids (MFO), endometrial organoids from women taking hormonal medication (EMO-H) and standard endometrial organoids (EMO) Results: to determine if organoids derived from menstrual fluid and hormone-treated endometrium share features with staandard endometrial organoids. Conclusions: MFO and EMO-H did not cluster distinctly to EMO, indicating that they share features with EMO and may enable population-wide disease modelling. This is the first publicly available data set demonstrating the transcriptome of EMO-H.

Project description:Background: Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of reproductive age women and 30%-50% of infertile women. Decreased endometrial receptivity is mainly responsible for infertile women with minimal/mild endometriosis. Medical therapy to improve fecundity of these women is needed. Metformin is reported to inhibit growth of ectopic lesions in endometriosis, while the effect on eutopic endometrium is unclear. The study was to identify if metformin had effect on eutopic endometrium in women with minimal/mild endometriosis and thus improve their fecundity. Materials and Methods: Paired endometrial tissues of secretory phase from participants with minimal/mild endometriosis were collected before and after two months of metformin treatment and setting metformin-free control. Protein expression profiles of endometrium were analyzed by proteomics. Results: A total of 115 proteins were detected up-regulated after metformin therapy, including Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7, α-antitrypsin, apolipoprotein D, Rho GDP-dissociation inhibitor 1, brain form glycogen phosphorylase, and Cathepsin B that associated with endometrial receptivity, while there had no significant changes in controls. These up-regulated markers were validated through target proteomics and further demonstrated with endometriosis mice models. Conclusions: This study revealed that metformin might ameliorate biomarkers expressions of endometrial receptivity in human and mice model. Metformin is potential to improve endometrial receptivity of endometriosis-associated infertility.
