Project description:In both beef and dairy cattle, the majority of embryo loss occurs in the first 14 days following insemination. During this period, the embryo is completely dependent on its maternal uterine environment for development, growth and ultimately survival, therefore an optimum uterine environment is critical to embryo survival. We used microarrays to assess endometrial gene expression in high and low fertility heifers during the mid-luteal phase of the estrous cycle.

We used microarrays to assess endometrial gene expression in high and low fertility heifers during the mid-luteal phase of the estrous cycle. Charlaois × Limousin heifers were artificially inseminated on 4 successive occasions and heifers were subsequently characterized as either high or low fertility (HF; LF) based on the presence of an embryo on day 28 of pregnancy on all four inseminations or on one occasion only, respectively. From this population of animals, HF and LF heifers were slaughtered on day 7 of a synchronized estrous cycle and global gene expression in uterine endometrial tissue was determined using the Affymetrix 23K Bovine GeneChip.

Project description:In both beef and dairy cattle, the majority of embryo loss occurs in the first 14-16 days following insemination. During this period, the embryo is completely dependent on its maternal uterine environment for development, growth and ultimately survival, therefore an optimum uterine environment is critical to embryo survival. We used microarrays to assess endometrial gene expression in high and low fertility heifers during the late-luteal phase of the estrous cycle. Charlaois M-CM-^W Limousin heifers were artificially inseminated on 4 successive occasions and heifers were subsequently characterized as either high or low fertility (HF; LF) based on the presence of an embryo on day 28 of pregnancy on all four inseminations or on one occasion only, respectively. From this population of animals, HF and LF heifers were slaughtered on day 14 of a synchronized estrous cycle and global gene expression in uterine endometrial tissue was determined using the AffymetrixM-BM-. 23K Bovine GeneChip.

Project description:To identify heifers of contrasting fertility, serial rounds of artificial insemination (AI) were conducted in 201 synchronized crossbred beef heifers. The heifers were then fertility classified based on number of pregnancies detected on day 35 in the four AI opportunities. The reproductive tracts of a subset of the classified heifers were obtained on day 14 of the estrous cycle. Microarray analysis revealed differences in the endometrial transcriptome based on fertility classification.

Microarray analysis revealed differences in the endometrial transcriptome based on fertility classification. Endometrium from 36 fertility-classified heifers (highly fertile, n=14; subfertile, n=12; infertile, n=10) was analyzed for differences in their transcriptome using a bovine microarray.

Project description:An increase in circulating progesterone (P4) concentrations is associated with increased pregnancy success in beef and dairy cattle. Our objective was to ascertain differential effects of elevated P4 concentrations following conception on endometrial gene expression in beef heifers on Days 5, 7, 13 and 16 of pregnancy, corresponding to the morula, blastocyst, elongation and maternal recognition of pregnancy stages, respectively. Estrus was synchronized in beef heifers (N=263). Two-thirds (N=140) were inseminated (Day 0), and all animals were randomly assigned to one of the following treatments: (i) pregnant, high P4; (ii) pregnant, normal P4; (iii) cycling, high P4; (iv) and cycling, normal P4. All high P4 groups received a P4 release intravaginal device (PRID) on Day 3 post-estrus/mating. Tissue was collected on Days 5, 7, 13 or 16 of the cycle or pregnancy, and pregnancy was confirmed by the presence of an appropriately developed embryo/conceptus. PRID insertion elevated (P<0.05) P4 concentrations from Day 3.5 to 8 compared with untreated animals and conceptus size was larger (P<0.05) in animals with elevated P4 on Days 13 and 16 compared with normal P4. Total RNA was extracted from predominantly intercaruncular endometria from the ipsilateral uterine horn. Samples from individual heifers were selected on the basis of their P4 profiles and gene expression was analyzed using bovine Affymetrix microarrays (N=5 per treatment per time point). Microarray data from analyses using Bioconductor GCRMA and Limma packages were subjected to a modified t-test and P-values were adjusted for multiple testing using the Benjamin and Hochberg false discovery rate method. Differentially expressed genes were selected on the basis of an adjusted P-value of <0.01. There were no detectable differences in gene expression in endometria from pregnant and cyclic heifers on Days 5, 7 and 13 post-estrus, but, the expression of 764 genes was altered due to the presence of the conceptus at maternal recognition of pregnancy (Day 16). On Days 5 and 7, elevated P4 in pregnant heifers, altered the expression of 36 and 124 genes respectively but on Days 13 and 16 there were relatively few DEG between high and normal P4 heifers (15 and 25). Of the genes that were differentially regulated by P4, the majority were unique to a specific day of the estrous cycle/early pregnancy. In conclusion, gene expression in endometria did not differ between pregnant and cycling heifers until Day 16 of pregnancy (i.e. the time of maternal recognition of pregnancy and production of interferon tau by conceptus trophectoderm); however, elevating P4 in early pregnancy programmed changes in gene expression in endometria that are hypothesized to impact early conceptus growth and development. Thus, on Days 5, 7 and 13 differential gene expression was affected by P4, but on Day 16 the conceptus primarily influenced gene expression in uterine endometria of heifers. Endometiral samples were taken from estrous synchronized beef heifers that were either cyclic or confirmed pregnant with either normal or high concentrations of progesterone on Day 5, 7, 13 and 16 of the estrous cycle/early pregnancy.

Project description:The hypothesis tested was that the uterine environment of lactating cows would affect conceptus gene expression. Approximately 65-75 days post-partum (dpp) the estrous cycles of non-lactating (dried off immediately post partum: n=12) and lactating (n=13) cows were synchronized and on Day 7 a high quality blastocyst derived from superovulated heifers was transferred. A control group of maiden heifers (n=8) were synchronized, inseminated to a standing heat and slaughtered on the same day as non-lactating and lactating recipients (Day 19; estrus=Day 0). The ipsilateral uterine horn was flushed with 10 ml PBS and the conceptus, when present, and uterine luminal fluid (ULF) snap frozen in liquid nitrogen prior to analysis. Gene expression analysis of the conceptus was performed by RNA sequencing analysis while amino acid (aa) composition of ULF was determined by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). Eight differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified between conceptuses recovered from non-lactating cows versus heifers while 269 DEGs (100 up-regulated and 169 down-regulated) were identified between conceptuses recovered from lactating cows compared to heifers. The aa, alanine, glycine, serine and threonine, arginine, leucine and valine, were significantly lower in abundance in ULF recovered from heifers compared to both non-lactating or lactating cows. Glutamic acid, glutamine and lysine concentrations were lowest in heifers compared to both cow groups. This study demonstrates that exposure of a grade one embryo to a uterine environment that has been exposed to the metabolic stresses associated with lactation modifies the transcriptome of the conceptus and aa composition of the ULF.

Project description:The aberrant gene expression in the uterine endometrium and embryo has been the major causes of pregnancy failure in cattle. Therefore, selecting cows having adequate endometrial receptivity and embryos of better developmental competence based on the gene expression could increase the number of calves produced by in each cow during its productive life time. We used endometrial and embryo biopsy technology in conjunction with the pregnancy outcome information to establish a direct link between the pre-transfer endometrial or in vivo derived embryo gene expression and pregnancy outcome after embryo transfer. Endometrial samples were collected from Simmental heifers at day 7 and 14 of the estrous cycle, one cycle prior to embryo transfer. In the next cycle, embryo biopsies consisting of 60-70% of inner cell mass and trophectoderm were transferred to the recipients at day 7 of the estrous cycle. The remaining 30-40% parts of the embryos were retained for analysis.Pregnancy diagnosis was performed at days 28 and 42 by ultrasonography and at day 56 by rectal palpation. Those heifers returned to heat at day 21 were considered as non pregnant or non receptive endometrium (NP) while those heifers ended up with successful pregnancy and calf delivery was considered as the calf delivery group or receptive endometrium (CD). Following this, the endometrial samples collected during the pre-transfer period and the embryo biopsies retained during embryo transfer were categorized based on the pregnancy outcome. Those endometrial biopsies collected at days 7 and 14 of the estrous cycle from heifers resulted in successful calf delivery were designated as CDd7 and CDd14, respectively and endometrial biopsies taken at days 7 and 14 of the estrous cycle from those subsequently resulted in no pregnancy were designated as NPd7 and NPd14, respectively. Similarly, the embryo biopsies were classified as those embryo biopsies resulted in successful calf delivery and those resulted in no pregnancy
