Global changes in gene expression of buffalo cow corpus luteum during prostaglandin F2alpha- induced luteolysis

ABSTRACT: In monoovulatory species like bovines, a striking diversity in regulation of the corpus luteum (CL) function exists within species during different stages of the luteal phase. The function and life span of CL appears to be regulated by the interplay of both luteotrophic and luteolytic factors, whose roles and actions are varied from one species to another. Although, studies continue to expand our current understanding of the cellular and molecular actions of prostaglandin F 2alpha (PGF2M-NM-1 - a physiological luteolysin)-induced luteolysis, knowledge of the mechanism whereby, PGF2M-NM-1 mediates its luteolytic actions remains poorly understood. The mechanism of PGF2M-NM-1-induced luteolysis is a complex process involving changes in expression of multiple genes encoding gene products that
