Project description:The aim of this study was to compare the transcriptome of the different regions of the oviduct between pregnant and cyclic heifers. After synchronizing crossbred beef heifers, those in standing oestrus (=Day 0) were randomly assigned to cyclic (non bred, n=6), or pregnant (artificially inseminated, n=11) groups. They were slaughtered on Day 3 and both oviducts from each animal were isolated and cut in half to separate ampulla and isthmus. Each portion was flushed to confirm the presence of an oocyte/embryo and was then opened longitudinally and scraped to obtain epithelial cells which were snap-frozen. Oocytes and embryos were located in the isthmus of the oviduct ipsilateral to the corpus luteum. Microarray analysis of oviductal cells revealed that proximity to the corpus luteum did not affect the transcriptome of the isthmus, irrespective of pregnancy status. However, 2287 genes were differentially expressed (P<0.01) between the ampulla and isthmus of the oviduct ipsilateral to the corpus luteum. Gene ontology revealed that the main biological processes overrepresented in the isthmus were synthesis of nitrogen, lipids, nucleotides, steroids and cholesterol as well as vesicle-mediated transport, cell cycle, apoptosis, endocytosis and exocytosis, whereas cell motion, motility and migration, DNA repair, calcium ion homeostasis, carbohydrate biosynthesis and regulation of cilium movement and beat frequency were overrepresented in the ampulla. In conclusion, large differences in gene expression were observed between the isthmus and ampulla that reflect morphological and functional characteristics of each segment. Fifteen samples including 5 pregnant contralateral isthmus heifers, 5 cyclic contralateral isthmus heifers, and 5 pregnant ipsilateral ampulla heifers. Also, ten samples from GSE74593 were reanalyzed with these samples. The full set of processed data are linked at the bottom of the Series record.

Project description:Ciliary action performs a critical role in the oviduct (Fallopian tube), during pregnancy establishment through sperm and egg transport. The disruption of normal ciliary function in the oviduct affects oocyte pick-up and is a contributing factor to female infertility. Estrogen is an important regulator of ciliary action in the oviduct and promotes ciliogenesis in several species. Global loss of estrogen receptor 1 alpha (encoded by Esr1 gene) leads to infertility. Our laboratory has previously shown that ESR1 in the oviductal epithelial cell layer is required for female fertility. Here, we assessed the role of estrogen on transcriptional regulation of ciliated epithelial cells of the oviduct using single-cell RNA-sequencing analysis. We observed minor variations in ciliated cell genes in the proximal region (isthmus and uterotubal junction) of the oviduct. However, E2 treatment had little impact on the gene expression profile of ciliated epithelial cells. To assess the requirement of ESR1 specifically in ciliated cells for female fertility, we conditionally ablated Esr1 from ciliated epithelial cells of the oviduct (called ciliated Esr1d/d mice). Our studies showed that ciliated Esr1d/d females had fertility rates comparable to control females, did not display any disruptions in preimplantation embryo development or embryo transport to the uterus, and had comparable cilia formation to control females. However, we observed some incomplete deletion of Esr1 in the ciliated epithelial cells, especially in the ampulla region. Therefore, more studies are required to definitively determine ESR1 function in ciliated cells of the oviduct. Nevertheless, our data suggest that ESR1 expression in ciliated cells of the oviduct is dispensable for ciliogenesis, but nonessential for female fertility in mice.

Project description:The objective of this study was to examine the effect of the presence of a single or multiple embryo(s) on the transcriptome of the bovine oviduct. In Experiment 1, cyclic (non-bred, n = 6) and pregnant (artificially inseminated, n = 11) heifers were slaughtered on Day 3 after estrus, and the ampulla and isthmic regions of the oviduct ipsilateral to the corpus luteum were separately flushed. Oviductal epithelial cells from the isthmus region, in which all oocytes/embryos were located, were snap-frozen for microarray analysis. In Experiment 2, heifers were divided into cyclic (non-bred, n = 6) or pregnant (multiple embryo transfer, n = 10) groups. In vitro-produced presumptive zygotes were transferred endoscopically to the ipsilateral oviduct on Day 1.5 post estrus (n = 50 zygotes per heifer). Heifers were slaughtered on Day 3 and oviductal isthmus epithelial cells were recovered for RNA sequencing. Microarray analysis in Experiment 1 failed to detect any difference in the transcriptome of the oviductal isthmus induced by the presence of a single embryo. In Experiment 2, following multiple embryo transfer, RNA sequencing revealed 278 differentially expressed genes of which 123 were up- and 155 were down-regulated in pregnant heifers. Most of the down-regulated genes were related to immune function. Transcriptional profiles of oviductal isthmus epithelial cells from cyclic and pregnant heifers were generated by sequencing of total RNA on the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform

Project description:Unraveling the composition and regulation of the oviduct fluid (OF) is crucial to understand the microenvironment in which sperm capacitation, fertilization and early embryo development take place. Therefore, our aim was to determine the spatiotemporal changes in the OF proteome according to the anatomical region of the oviduct (ampulla vs. isthmus), the proximity of the ovulating ovary (ipsilateral vs. contralateral side) and the peri-ovulatory stage (pre-ovulatory or Pre-ov vs. post-ovulatory or Post-ov). Oviducts from adult cyclic cows were collected at a local slaughterhouse and pools of OF were analyzed by nanoLC-MS/MS and label-free protein quantification (n=32 OF pools for all region stage side conditions). A total of 3,760 proteins were identified in the OF, of which 37% were predicted to be secreted. The oviduct region was the major source of variation in protein abundance, followed by the proximity of the ovulating ovary and finally the peri-ovulatory stage. Differentially abundant proteins between regions, stages and sides were involved in a broad variety of biological functions, including protein binding, response to stress, cell-to-cell adhesion, calcium homeostasis and the immune system. This work highlights the dynamic regulation of oviduct secretions and provides new protein candidates for interactions between the maternal environment, the gametes and the early embryo.

Project description:Purpose: evaluate if different proestrus-estrus concentrations of estradiol (E2) and metestrus progesterone (P4) concentrations specifically regulate oviductal gene expression. Methods: ampulla and isthmus samples of animals whit a large pre-ovulatory follicle and a large CL (LF/LCL) and animals whit a small pre-ovulatory follicle and a small CL (SF/SCL) were collected after slaughter at day four of the estrous cycle. Total RNA was extracted and RNA sequencing was performed using the Illumina HiScanSeq (ampulla samples) and the Illumina HiSeq 2500 (isthmus samples) platforms. Results: After using HTSeq-count, approximately ~60% of the total reads uniquely mapped to the UMD 3.1 reference genome. In the ampulla samples, a total of 692 genes showed differential expression, of which 325 and 367 were up-regulated in the LF-LCL and SF-SCL samples, respectively. In the isthmus samples, a total of 590 genes showed differential expression, of which 274 and 316 were up-regulated in the isthmus of LF/LCL and SF/SCL samples, respectively. Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of oviduct transcriptomes, generated by RNA-seq technology. Differential global gene expression profiles identified indicate that the biology of the bovine oviductal tissue is modulated by the periovulatory endocrine milieu. The LF-LCL group transcriptome may potentially reveal molecules associated with higher fertility. Oviductal mRNA profiles of cows whit different endocrine milleus were generated by next generation sequencing.
