Discovery of candidate genes and pathways in the endometrium regulating ovine blastocyst growth and conceptus elongation.
Establishment of pregnancy in ruminants requires blastocyst growth to form an elongated conceptus that produces interferon tau, the pregnancy recognition signal, and initiates implantation. Blastocyst growth and development requires secretions from the uterine endometrium. An early increase in circulating concentrations of progesterone (P4) stimulates blastocyst growth and elongation in ruminan...
متن کاملDeciphering early sensor and driver properties of the endometrium: contribution of the uterus to pregnancy outcome
Background: Pregnancy involves a continuum of complex biological processes. Each of them can be affected by the environment surrounding the pregnant female (e. g. chemicals, nutrition, stress, infection) and data have focused on gametes quality, early blastocyst development and placental function and their perturbations by environmental insults or embryo biotechnologies. During the pregnancy pe...
متن کاملTight and adherens junctions in the ovine uterus: differential regulation by pregnancy and progesterone.
In species with noninvasive implantation by conceptus trophectoderm, fetal/maternal communications occur across the endometrial epithelia. The present studies identified changes in junctional complexes in the ovine endometrium that regulate paracellular trafficking of water, ions, and other molecules, and the secretory capacity of the uterine epithelia. Distinct temporal and spatial alterations...
متن کاملComparative expression of TGF-alpha and EGF genes in the ovine conceptus and uterine endometrium in the peri-implantation period.
Control of growth and differentiation during mammalian embryogenesis may be regulated by growth factors. With the use of a very sensitive method, the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, expression of some growth factor transcripts was examined during ovine peri-implantation development. Transcripts for transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha) were found in day 15 to day 30 conc...
متن کاملIdentification of differential gene expression during porcine conceptus rapid trophoblastic elongation and attachment to uterine luminal epithelium.
Early embryonic development in the pig is characterized by a rapid elongation of the conceptus trophectoderm on days 11-12 of gestation. Initially, the conceptus trophoblast is morphologically rearranged from a 10-mm sphere into a tubular shape, transitioning into a thin filamentous form >150 mm in length in 2-3 h, followed by continued expansion within the uterine lumen for several days. Conce...
