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.

Project description:Purpouse: Aims of this study were (1) to characterize the endometrial transcriptome, (2) to identify functional pathways, and (3) to molecularly characterize selected pathways overrepresented in the endometrium of day 7 post-ovulation induction of cows treated to ovulate larger versus smaller follicles Methods: Seventy-four multiparous, nonlactating, presynchronized Nelore cows received a progesterone-releasing device and estradiol benzoate on Day–10 (D−10). Animals received cloprostenol (large follicle-large CL group; LF-LCL; N = 35) or not (small follicle-small CL group; SF-SCL; N = 39) on D−10. Progesterone devices were withdrawn and cloprostenol administered 42 to 54 hours (LF-LCL) or 30 to 36 hours (SF-SCL) before GnRH treatment (D0). Tissues were collected at slaughter on D7. Transcriptional profiling of the endometrial tissue was performed by RNA-seq and protein markers for proliferation and apoptosis were identified by immunohistochemistry. Results: Functional enrichment data indicated that LF-LCL endometrium expressed greater abundance of genes associated with biosynthetic and metabolic processes, whereas SF-SCL endometrium .gene expression profile was biased towards cell proliferation. Extracellular matrix-related genes were also upregulated in the SF-SCL endometrium suggesting reorganization of the ECM towards a proliferation permissive phenotype. Immunohistochemistry data confirmed the greater proliferative activity observed in SF-SCL endometrium I comparison to LF-LCL counterparts, and indicated a time-related transition within experimental group. In conclusion, the periovulatory endocrine milieu regulates bovine endometrial gene expression. Furthermore, timing and amplitude of ovarian steroid secretion pattern seem to determine the transition from a proliferation permissive to a biosynthetic and metabolically active endometrial phenotype, which may be associated with the preparation of an optimally receptive uterine environment. Conclusion: the periovulatory endocrine milieu affected D7 endometrial molecular signature. Main pathways affected were related to cell proliferation, ECM composition and remodeling, biosynthetic and metabolic processes. Reported data further suggest that the endometrial tissue from LF-LCL cows experienced an early proliferative phase (D4), whereas the SF-SCL endometrium, exposed to a distinct periovulatory endocrine environment, expressed a delayed onset of the proliferative activity (D7).

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: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
