Project description:The bovine conceptus elongates near Day 16 of development and releases interferon-tau (IFNT), disrupting the endometrial luteolytic mechanism to sustain luteal P4 and pregnancy. Conceptus factors other than IFNT modify local endometrial activities in support of pregnancy; however, the microenvironment is largely uncharacterized. We utilized a bovine conceptus-endometrial culture system to elucidate the microenvironment in the form of RNA and protein. Estrus synchronized heifers remained cyclic (13) or were inseminated (9) to produce Day 16 cyclic endometrium and elongating conceptuses, respectively. Conceptus sections and cyclic endometrium were then used to generate tissue cultures in 1 mL of medium: (1) no tissue (Control Med; n=7), (2) mono-cultured conceptus (Conceptus; n=9), (3) mono-cultured endometrium (Endo; n=13), or (4) Endo-Conceptus co-culture (n=15). After 12 h, tissue RNA was sequenced (RNA-Seq) and media underwent proteomic analysis (LC-MS/MS). Compared to Conceptus and Endo, co-cultured conceptus and endometrial tissue contained 3,400 and 4,575 differentially expressed genes (DEG), respectively (P ≤ 0.01). Upregulated endometrial DEG, independent of IFNT, were associated with transcription whereas upregulated conceptus DEG were associated with protein homeostasis and metabolism (P ≤ 0.001).

Project description:This study reproduced in vivo aspects of the temporal signaling of interferon tau (IFNT) and pregnancy associated glycoproteins (PAG) during bovine early pregnancy. The objective of this study was to analyze the short and long-term effects of IFNT, and the effect of PAG on the transcriptome of endometrium.

Project description:Transcriptome of endometrium and blood leukocytes in response to conceptus proteins in dairy cattle
| PRJNA1010686 | ENA
Project description:A major unresolved issue in the cloning of mammals by somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) is the mechanism by which the process fails after embryos are transferred to the uterus of recipients, prior to or during the implantation window. We investigated this problem by using RNA-seq to compare the transcriptomes in cattle conceptuses produced by SCNT and artificial insemination (AI) at d18 (pre-implantation) and d34 (post-implantation) of gestation. In addition, endometrium was profiled in order to identify the communication pathways that might be affected by the presence of a cloned conceptus, ultimately leading to mortality prior to or during the implantation window. At d18, the effects on the transcriptome associated with SCNT were massive, involving more than 5,000 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Among them are 121 genes that have embryonic lethal phenotypes in mice, cause defects in trophoblast and placental development, and/or affect conceptus survival in mice. In endometria at d18, <0.4% of expressed genes were affected by the presence of a cloned conceptus, whereas at d34, ~36% and <0.7% of genes were differentially expressed in intercaruncular and caruncular tissues, respectively. Functional analysis of DEGs in placental and endometrial tissues suggests a major disruption of signaling between the cloned conceptus and the endometrium, particularly the intercaruncular tissue. Our results support a bottleneck model for cloned conceptus survival during the peri-implantation period determined by gene expression levels in extra-embryonic tissues and the endometrial response to altered signaling from clones.

Project description:This study relates to embryo-maternal interaction. The aim was to compare the transcriptome and ability of the ipsilateral and contralateral uterine horns to support preimplantation conceptus survival and growth to Day 14. Although differences in gene expression exist between the endometrium of uterine horns ipsilateral and contralateral to the CL in cattle, they do not impact conceptus survival or length between Days 7 and 14.

Project description:The aims of this study were to 1) identify the earliest transcriptional response of the bovine endometrium to the presence of the conceptus (using RNAseq), 2) investigate if these genes are regulated by interferon tau (IFNT) in vivo, and 3) determine if they are predictive of the pregnancy status of postpartum dairy cows. RNAseq identified 459 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between pregnant and cyclic endometria on day 16. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis of selected genes revealed PARP12, ZNFX1, HERC6, IFI16, RNF213, and DDX58 expression increased in pregnant compared with cyclic endo- metria on day 16 and were directly upregulated by intrauterine infusion of IFNT in vivo for 2 h (P < 0.05). On day 13 following estrous endometrial expression of nine genes increased [ARHGAP1, MGC127874, LIMS2, TBC1D1, FBXL7, C25H16orf71, LOC507810, ZSWIM4, and one novel gene (ENSBTAT00000050193)] and seven genes decreased (SERBP1, SRGAP2, AL7A1, TBK1, F2RL2, MGC128929, and WBSCR17; P < 0.05) in pregnant compared with cyclic heifers. Of these DEGs, significant differences in expression between pregnant and cyclic endometria were maintained on day 16 for F2RL2, LIMS2, LOC507810, MGC127874, TBC1D1, WBSCR17, and ZSWIM4 (P < 0.05) both their expression was not directly regulated by IFNT in vivo. Analysis of the expression of selected interferon-stimulated genes in blood samples from postpartum dairy cows revealed a significant increase (P < 0.05) in expression of ZXFX1, PARP12, SAMD9, and HERC6 on day 18 following artificial insemination in cows subsequently confirmed pregnant compared with cyclic controls. In conclusion, RNAseq identified a number of novel pregnancy-associated genes in the endometrium of cattle during early pregnancy that are not regulated by IFNT in vivo. In addition, a number of genes that are directly regulated by short term exposure to IFNT in vivo are differentially expressed on day 18 following estrus detection in the blood of postpartum dairy cows depending on their pregnancy status. mRNA profiles of pregnant vs not pregnant cross-bred beef heifers at days 13 and 16 (n=5 per group)

Project description:This study aimed to identify bovine conceptus-induced modifications to the endometrial transcriptome both dependent and independent of interferon tau (IFNT), dependent on conceptus origin [in vitro fertilization (IVF) or artifical insemination (AI) derived blastocysts] and dependent on conceptus sex. Major findings include identification of genes differentially expressed in endometrium in response to the conceptus but independent of IFNT and genes differentially expressed in endometrium in response to AI vs. IVF and male vs. female conceptuses.
