Project description:The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between progesterone concentration (P4) at day 4 of the estrous cycle (beginning of diestrus) and endometrial global gene expression at day 9 (middle diestrus) in lactating grazing dairy cows. Blood samples were obtained on days 0, 4 and 9 for P4 measurement by chemiluminescence. Cows were asignated to one of the following groups (n=3/group): cows with low physiological P4 at day 4 (PLP4), cows in anestrous (ANE), cows with high physiological P4 at day 4 (HPP4) and superovulated cows (SO). Endometrial biopsy samples were obtained on day 9 for RNA sequencing. Quality control and determination of differentially expressed genes (DEG; FDR<0.05) were determined using the edgeR package for R. The number of DEG between groups were: HPP4 vs LPP4: 453; HPP4 vs ANE: 623; SO vs LPP4: 603; SO vs ANE: 1102; LPP4 vs ANE: 261 and SO vs HPP4: 0. Functional analysis using the DAVID database revealed that endometrial genes upregulated by low P4 are enriched in the immune system and inflammatory response. Conversely, genes upregulated by high P4 are enriched inmodulation of uterine relaxation-contraction, GnRH signaling pathway, focal adhesion and EGF-like related terms. In conclusion, our results support the concept of changes in P4 at the beginning of the luteal phase could be associated with the endometrial expression of critical genes involved in the preparation of the uterine environment for embryo implantation.

Project description:Endometrial luminal epithelium transcriptome during early diestrus defines pregnancy outcome in cattle
| PRJNA720121 | ENA
Project description:Background:The morphology of vaginal secretions during estrus and diestrus is characteristic and easy to distinguish. There are also significant differences in hormone levels between the two periods in physiological condition. However, the gene changes during estrus cycle especially the two periods are still unclear. Therefore, this study plans to find out the pathway changes related to the estrus cycle of female mice, the expression of various proteins, predict the genes sensitive to hormone changes in vivo through gene analysis of 15 tissues in the two periods and construct of differential gene expression library. Methods:The wildtype healthy female mice in estrus were compared with those in diestrus. The transcriptome changes between the two periods were probed by using high-throughput RNA-seq techniques. Results:A comprehensive mouse transcriptome map in estrus or diestrus across fifteen tissues including aorta, vein, brown adipose tissue, white adipose tissue, heart, kidney, liver, skeletal muscle, stomach, duodenum, cerebrum, hypothalamus, ovary, womb and spleen were provided. Conclusions:This dataset could serve as a baseline resource for investigating the potential gene changes sensitive to the estrus cycle across different tissues and provide the information for screening the key functional genes or molecular markers of estrus cycle.

Project description:Establishment of pregnancy in cattle is complex and encompasses ovulation, fertilization, blastocyst formation and growth into an elongated conceptus, pregnancy recognition signaling, and development of the embryo and placenta. The objective here was to investigate sire influences on pregnancy establishment in cattle. First, 10 Holstein bulls were classified as high or low fertility based on their sire conception rate (SCR) value. In a field trial, pregnancy at first timed insemination was not different between high and low SCR bulls. Next, 5 of the 10 sires were phenotyped using in vitro and in vivo embryo production. There was no effect of SCR classification on in vitro embryo cleavage rate, but low SCR sires produced fewer day 8 blastocysts. In superovulated heifers, high SCR bulls produced a lower percentage of unfertilized oocytes and fewer degenerated embryos compared to low SCR bulls. Recipient heifers received three to five in vivo produced embryos from either high or low SCR sires on day 7 postestrus. Day 16 conceptus recovery and length were not different between SCR groups, and the conceptus transcriptome was not appreciably different between high and low SCR sires. The reduced ability of embryos from low SCR bulls to establish pregnancy is multifactorial and encompasses sperm fertilizing ability, preimplantation embryonic development, and development of the embryo and placenta after conceptus elongation and pregnancy recognition. These studies highlight the importance of understanding genetic contributions of the sire to pregnancy establishment that is crucial to increase reproductive efficiency in dairy cattle.

Project description:Despite buffaloes being primary farm animals, their reproductive performance remains poor mainly due to inaccurate estrus detection methods that ultimately has an economic impact on dairy industry as well as farmers. Recently, numerous studies showed potential of miRNAs as estrus biomarker. However, a miRNA profile of buffalo cell free saliva, a non-invasive fluid, at estrus and diestrus stages is missing. Hence, the present study was planned to identify differential levels of salivary cell free miRNAs in estrus as compared to the diestrus phase of buffalo oestrous cycle (n=3) in order to discover a possible estrus specific miRNAs as biomarkers. miRNA-Seq data analysis showed that in total 10 miRNAs i.e bta-miR-375, bta-miR-200c, bta-miR-30d, bta-let-7f, bta-miR-200a, bta-miR-12034, bta-let-7b, bta-miR-142-5p, bta-miR-2467-3p, bta-miR-30a-5p are significantly altered (log2foldchange >3 and p<0.05) during estrus in comparison to the diestrus phase in buffaloes, suggesting their estrus biomarker potential. Overall, 8 miRNAs i.e bta-miR-375 (6.87 Fold; p-value 0.003), bta-miR-200c (5.98 Fold; p-value 0.003), bta-miR-30d (4.17 Fold; p-value 0.015), bta-let-7f (3.34 Fold; p-value 0.022), bta-miR-200a (4.92 Fold; p-value 0.024), bta-miR-12034 (3.58 Fold; p-value 0.0025), bta-let-7b (3.06 Fold; p-value 0.031), bta-miR-30a-5p (4.7 Fold; p-value 0.036) were upregulated, whereas bta-miR-142-5p (-3.4 Fold; p-value 0.032) and bta-miR-2467-3p (-5.24 Fold; p-value 0.035) were downregulated during estrus. However, further validation study using qPCR is required in a large sample size in order to determine their estrus biomarker potential. In summary, our results revealed differential salivary cell free miRNAs profile during the oestrous cycle that may lead to the development of estrus specific miRNAs based point-of-care test applicable for the reproductive management of buffaloes in the field condition in the near future.

Project description:Heterochromatin is a key feature of eukaryotic genomes that serves important regulatory and structural roles in regions such as centromeres. In fission yeast, maintenance of existing heterochromatic domains relies on positive feedback loops involving histone methylation and non-coding RNAs. However, requirements for de novo establishment of heterochromatin are less well understood. Here, through a cross-based assay we have identified a novel factor influencing the efficiency of heterochromatin establishment. We determine that the previously uncharacterised protein is an ortholog of human Caprin1, an RNA-binding protein linked to stress granule formation. We confirm that the fission yeast ortholog, here named Cpn1, also associates with stress granules, and we uncover evidence of interplay between heterochromatin integrity and ribonucleoprotein (RNP) granule formation, with heterochromatin mutants showing reduced granule formation in the presence of stress, but increased granule formation in the absence of stress. We link this to regulation of non-coding heterochromatic transcripts, since in heterochromatin-deficient cells, absence of Cpn1 leads to hyperaccumulation of centromeric RNAs at centromeres. Together our findings unveil a novel link between RNP homeostasis and heterochromatin assembly, and implicate Cpn1 and associated factors in facilitating heterochromatin establishment by promoting removal of excess transcripts that would otherwise impair assembly processes.

Project description:Although somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) cloning is more efficient in bovine than in all other species tested so far, there is a high rate of pregnancy failure that has been linked to structural and functional abnormalities of the placenta. We tested the hypothesis that these changes may originate from disturbed embryo-maternal interactions in the pre-implantation period. Therefore, we evaluated the transcriptome response of the endometrium to SCNT embryos (produced from five different donor cell cultures) as compared to embryos derived from in vitro fertilization (IVF). SCNT embryos and IVF embryos were cultured under identical conditions to the blastocyst stage (Day 8) and transferred to recipients. The recipients were slaughtered at day 18 of pregnancy and the uterus was recovered. Pregnancy was verified by the presence of at least one normally developed embryo. Transcriptome profiling of endometrium samples using a custom cDNA microarray covering transcripts expressed in the endometrium and/or oviduct epithelium revealed 58 transcripts that were differently abundant between endometrium samples from SCNT vs. IVF pregnancies. Prominent examples are NR2F2 (encoding the orphan nuclear receptor COUP-TFII) and GJA1 (encoding connexin 43). Both transcripts are known to play important roles in placentation and were significantly less abundant in endometrium from SCNT vs. IVF pregnancies. These findings suggest that placental failure in bovine clone pregnancies may originate from abnormal embryo-maternal communication already in the pre- or peri-implantation period. Endometrium transcriptome profiles may serve as a novel readout to evaluate SCNT embryos for their ability to induce pregnancy with a functional placenta. Keywords: response to different embryos Nineteen German Fleckvieh (Simmental) heifers were slaughtered at day 18 of pregnancy. Cycle-synchronized recipient heifers received either IVP or SCNT embryos at day 7 of the estrous cycle. Animals were slaughtered at day 18. Endometrial (intercaruncular) tissue samples were obtained from 10 pregnant animals after transfer of IVP embryos and from 9 pregnant animals after transfer of SCNT embryos.
