Project description:Embryo implantation is a key step in establishing pregnancy and a major limiting factor in IVF. Implantation requires the endometrium, the inner lining of the uterus, to transform from a non-receptive to a receptive state, to allow embryos to attach to the surface and enter into the tissue. However, the fundamental mechanisms governing receptivity are not well understood. Here we show that transmembrane protein podocalyxin is a major and clinically significant factor regulating human endometrial receptivity. Podocalyxin is expressed in all endometrial epithelial cells in the non-receptive state but is selectively down-regulated in the luminal epithelium at receptivity. We present evidence that podocalyxin critically governs the barrier function of the endometrial epithelium, likely as an intrinsic protective mechanism, rendering it non-receptive to an embryo. In addition, podocalyxin suppresses genes promoting receptivity (eg LIF, CSF1) but stimulates those inhibiting implantation (eg WNT7A, LEFTY2). Down-regulation of podocalyxin in the luminal epithelium, likely mediated by progesterone, selectively converts the endometrial surface to a more adhesive state that facilitates embryo attachment and penetration. Furthermore, inadequate down-regulation of podocalyxin in the endometrial luminal epithelium is associated with poorer implantation rates in IVF. We thus propose that podocalyxin promotes the barrier function of human endometrial epithelial cells and critically regulates receptivity for embryo implantation.

Project description:The inner uterine lining (endometrium) has been shown to have a distinct methylation pattern that changes throughout the menstrual cycle. However, not much is known about how the endometrial methylome affects endometrial receptivity to implanting embryo in the second half of the menstrual cycle. The aim of the present study was to use genome-wide technologies and a paired study design to characterize the endometrial methylome in pre-receptive and receptive endometrium sampled from 17 healthy women within the same menstrual cycle.

Project description:Successful embryo implantation into a receptive endometrium requires mutual endometrial-embryo communication. Recently, the function of extracellular vehicles (EVs) in cell-to-cell interaction in embryo-maternal interactions has been investigated. We explored isolated endometrial derived EVs, using RL95-2 cells as a model of a receptive endometrium, influenced by menstrual cycle hormones estrogen (E2; proliferative phase) progesterone (P4; secretory phase) and estrogen plus progesterone (E2P4; the receptive phase). EV sized particles were isolated by differential centrifugation and size exclusion chromatography. Nanoparticle tracking analysis was used to examine the different concentration and size of particles and EV proteomic analysis per-formed using shotgun label-free mass spectrometry. Our results showed that although endome-trial derived EVs were secreted in numbers independent of hormonal stimulation, EVs sizes were statistically modified by it. Proteomics analysis showed that hormone treatment changes affect the endometrial EVs proteome, with proteins enhanced within the EV E2P4 group shown to be in-volved in different processes such as embryo implantation, endometrial receptivity, and embryo development, supporting the concept of a communication system between the embryo and the maternal endometrium via EVs.

Project description:Purpose: Extracellular vescicles (EVs) of uterine origin have recently been identified, but they are not comprised by current diagnostics on endometrial receptivity. In order to test the possibility to use EVs as biomarker reservoirs for non-invasive monitoring of the endometrial status, we defined two experimental designs: in step a) we aimed at assessing the concordance between the transcriptome of endometrial tissue and uterine fluid-derived EVs (UF-EVs); in step b) we aimed at unraveling the transcriptomic profile of UF-EVs released during the receptive phase and associated with successful implantation Methods: RNAseq analysis was performed on total RNA isolated from a) endometrial biopsies and UF-EVs concomitantly collected from regularly cycling women; b) UF-EVs collected in the pre-receptive (LH+2) versus the receptive (LH+7) phase of provenly fertile women and in the receptive phase (LH+7) of women undergoing assisted reproduction and transfer of an euploid blastocyst. In the latter group, the outcomes of the following embryo transfer attempt were recorded, in order to compare the transcriptomic profile of women with successful versus failed implantation. Differential Gene Expression (DGE) and Gene Set Enrichment (GSEA) analyses were performed. Results: In the first experimental design, a highly significant correlation was found between the transcriptional profiles of endometrial tissue biopsies and corresponding UF-EVs (r=0.71 p<0.001; ρ=0.65 p<0.001). In the second experimental design, using a large group of 73 samples, 16,777 genes were overall found to be expressed in UF-EVs. Of these, DGE analysis showed that 942 were up-regulated and 1,305 down-regulated during the receptive phase in women with proven fertility and 97 were up-regulated and 64 down-regulated during the receptive phase of women achieving successful implantation versus women failing to achieve pregnancy in the subsequent cycle. 41 genes had a statistically significant different expression in both comparisons. We additionally tested wether transcripts used by current endometrial receptivity tests based on endometrial biopsies (Endometrial Receptivity Assay, ERA test) could also be detected in UF-EVs: out of 238 ERA test gene data-set, GSEA highlighted 219 genes with similar transcriptional profile in UF-EVs. We then performed another comparison adding the list of genes consisting of the ‘metasignature’ transcriptome derived from the published meta-analysis of endometrial receptivity associated transcripts, comprising 57 genes. This last intersection identified 38 genes expressed in UF-EVs that i) show differential expression with the same transcriptional profile (same trends) in both EVs and ERA test assay; ii) belong to the leading edge of genes with the most significant enrichment score in our analysis; iii) are identified as receptivity-associated genes by the current meta-analysis on endometrial transcriptome. Conclusions: This is the first study showing the capacity of UF-EVs to reflect the endometrial tissue transcriptional status and to establish a signature of genes expressed in UF-EVs that might serve as putative biomarkers for non-invasive endometrial receptivity tests.

Project description:The mammalian endometrium is covered by the luminal epithelium (Le), which directly interacts with the blastocyst and plays an important role in the establishment of reciprocal crosstalk between the embryo and receptive uterus during implantation. However, the effect of the blastocyst on uterine receptivity is far from well understood. Through transcriptomic profiling of the uterine Le isolated by laser capture microdissection, it was demonstrated that global gene expression changes occurred in Le between pseudopregnant mice without embryos and pregnant mice with embryos. Some differentially expressed genes, including upregulated Areg, Ihh, Lifr and downregulated Msx1, Pgr, Gata2, have been reported to regulate the establishment of uterine receptivity. Besides, we found that blastocysts induced an increase in both the number and acidification of lysosome, consistent with enhanced lysosomal hydrolase activity in uterine Le. Further exploration uncovered that blastocyst-derived IGF2 was involved into the activation of epithelial STAT3 to induce lysosomal hydrolase expression, and inhibition of lysosomal function derails normal uterine receptivity and embryo implantation. Finally, based on the proteomic data of both epithelia and the separated lysosome, it was revealed that CLDN1 and MUC1, two well-known downregulated molecules for successful implantation, are degraded by epithelial lysosome. In brief, our data demonstrated that blastocysts induced normal epithelium differentiation with lysosome activation to promote the establishment of uterine receptivity for embryo implantation.

Project description:Receptivity of the uterus is essential for embryo implantation and progression of pregnancy. Acquisition of receptivity involves major molecular and cellular changes in the endometrial lining of the uterus from its non-receptive state at ovulation, to its receptive state four days later. The precise molecular mechanisms underlying this transition remain to be fully characterized. Here, we aimed to generate a comprehensive profile of the uterine transcriptome in the peri-ovulatory and peri-implantation states, and to define the differences between them, in the mouse. High throughput RNA-sequencing was utilized to identify genes and pathways expressed in the endometrium of C57Bl/6 female mice on day 3.5 post-coitum after mating with BALB/c males, compared to the endometrium of unmated estrous females (n=3-4 biological replicates). RNA-sequencing and analysis using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis software revealed that, compared to the endometrium at estrus, 388 genes were differentially expressed in the endometrium on day 3.5 post-coitum (FDR ≤ 0.05). Several upstream regulators are implicated in the transition to receptivity including several cytokines, steroid hormones, prostaglandin E2, and vascular endothelial growth factor A. The transcriptional changes indicate substantial changes in the uterine immune and vascular systems during the pre-implantation phase, with the functional terms Angiogenesis, Chemotaxis, and Lymphangiogenesis predominating. This analysis confirms that the transcriptome of a receptive uterus is vastly different to the non-receptive uterus and identifies several genes and regulatory pathways not previously associated with implantation. This dataset will serve as a valuable tool and resource for future research on the molecular mechanisms of uterine receptivity.

Project description:We used the microarray analysis to determine the differential gene expression profiles in mouse uterine luminal epithelium between preimplantation gestation day 3.5 and postimplantation gestation day 4.5, and investigeate the molecular mechanism of the establishment of uterine receptivity and embryo implantation. Uterine luminal epithelium (LE) is critical for the establishment of uterine receptivity during embryo implantation. Many genes are known to have differential expression in the periimplantation LE but the global profiling of the altered genes in the periimplantation LE is unknown. To fill in this knowledge gap, microarray analysis was performed in gestation day 3.5 (D3.5, preimplantation) and D4.5 (postimplantation) mouse LE from natural pregnancy. There were 382 significantly upregulated and 245 significantly downregulated genes (>2 fold, P<0.05) in the D4.5 LE. There are 6 samples. 3 for gestation day 3.5 uterine luminal epithelium, the other 3 for gestation day 4.5 uterine luminal epithelium

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) act as important epigenetic post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression. We aimed to gain more understanding to the complex gene expression regulation of endometrial receptivity by analysing miRNA signature of fertile human endometrium. We used Agilent miRNA arrays to define the miRNA expression pattern in receptive (LH+7, n = 3) vs. pre-receptive (LH<7, n = 4) endometrium from healthy fertile women.
