Project description:Cell state determination is apparent within the endometrium during the mid-luteal window of implantation. Using previously identified biomarkers of cell states (SCARA5 and DIO2) we performed bulk RNA sequencing on 6 pairs of endometrial biopsies characterised by either normal biomarker expression in both biopsies, or abnormal biomarker expression in one biopsy (low SCARA5 and high DIO2) and normal expression in a second biopsy. We demonstrate that “abnormal cycles” are associated with a distinct gene expression profile when compared to “normal cycles” and have utilised this dataset for biomarker discovery.
Project description:To test if cell states within the endometrium are spatially organized, we performed spatial transcriptomics on 8 mid-luteal phase superficial endometrial biopsies.
Project description:We present the transcriptome analysis by RNA sequencing of endometrial B cells identifying potential B cell phenotypes and function in human endometrium during the mid-luteal phase. To achieve this, endometrial B cells were isolated from 15 endometrial biopsies, and cDNA library preparation was performed for RNA sequencing.
Project description:The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of chemerin on the transcriptomic profile of porcine in vitro cultured luteal cells collected during the mid-luteal phase of estrous cycle.
Project description:In order to try and identify characteristics of gene expression in the endometrium of women suffering infertility or recurrenty miscarriage, we performed RNAseq on endometrial pipelle biopsies from 20 women. The endometrial transcriptome in the mid-luteal phase of the cycle (window of implantation) is highly divergent in women suffering infertility or miscarriages. 20 mid-luteal endometrial biopsies were analysed from infertile women and patients suffering recurrent pregnancy loss.
Project description:<p>We performed an unbiased genome-wide expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) mapping study to identify common regulatory (expression) single nucleotide polymorphisms (eSNPs) in mid-secretory endometrium, corresponding to the luteal phase of the ovarian cycle. Biopsies were collected from 58 women with two or more early pregnancy losses and 53 of these samples passed all quality control. RNA was extracted from endometrial biopsies and DNA was extracted for sequencing from blood.</p> <p>Gene expression data can be found at NCBI GEO Series GSE77688.</p>
