Project description:To decipher the crosstalk between the implanting mouse embryo and the maternal blood vessels we analysed the transcriptomes of the trophoblast and the endothelial cells using RNA-seq. Using laser-assisted microdissection, we isolated the mural trophectoderm of E4.5 (non-implanted embryo) and E4.75 blastocysts (attached to the uterine wall). As the invasive trophoblast giant cells (TGCs) at early egg cylinder stage (implanted embryo) are not accessible, we allowed the E4.5 mural TE to differentiate into TGCs in vitro for 3 days and then we proceeded with the transcriptional analysis. In addition, we analysed the transcriptome of the endothelial cells of the E5.5 decidua and the bEnd5 endothelial cell line. We found that the trophoblast activates the expression of a large repertoire of vascular receptors, ligands and cell adhesion molecules, compiling a network for communication with the maternal blood vessels.

Project description:Ineffective endometrial matrix remodeling, a key factor in infertility, impedes embryo implantation in the uterine wall. Our study reveals the cellular and molecular impact of human collagenase-1 administration in mouse uteri, demonstrating enhanced embryo implantation rates. Collagenase-1 promotes remodeling of the endometrial extracellular matrix (ECM), degrading collagen fibers and proteoglycans. This process releases matrix-bound bioactive factors, (e.g. VEGF, decorin), facilitating vascular permeability and angiogenesis. Collagenase-1 elevates embryo implantation regulators, including NK cell infiltration and the key cytokine LIF. Remarkably, uterine tissue maintains structural integrity despite reduced endometrial collagen fiber tension. In-utero collagenase-1 application rescues implantation in the heat stress and embryo transfer models, known for low implantation rates. Importantly, ex-vivo exposure of human uterine tissue to collagenase-1 induces collagen de-tensioning and VEGF release, mirroring remodeling observed in mice. Our research highlights collagenase potential to induce and orchestrate cellular and molecular processes enhancing uterine receptivity for effective embryo implantation. This innovative approach underscores ECM remodeling mechanisms critical for embryo implantation

Project description:Endometrial receptivity plays a vital role in the success of embryo implantation. However, the temporal proteomic profile of porcine endometrium during embryo implantation is still unclear. In this study, the expression of proteins in endometrium on days 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 18 of pregnancy (D9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 18) was profiled via iTRAQ technology. The results showed that 25, 55, 103, 91, 100, 120, 149 proteins were up-regulated, and 24, 70, 169, 159, 164, 161, 198 proteins were down-regulated in porcine endometrium on D10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 18 compared with that on D9, respectively. Among these differentially expressed (DE) proteins, MQM results indicated that S100A9, S100A12, HRG and IFI6 were differentially expressed in endometrial tissues during embryo implantation period. Bioinformatics analysis showed that the proteins differentially expressed in the 8 comparisons (D10 vs D9, D11 vs D9, D12 vs D9, D13 vs D9, D14 vs D9, D15 vs D9 and D18 vs D9) were involved in important processes and pathways related to immunization, endometrial remodeling, which have a vital effect on embryonic implantation. Our results reveal that RBP4 could regulate the cell proliferation, migration and apoptosis of endometrial epithelial cells and endometrial stromal cells to affect embryo implantation. This research also provides resources for studies of proteins in endometrium during early pregnancy.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important mediators of embryo attachment and outgrowth critical for successful implantation. While EVs have garnered immense interest in their therapeutic potential in assisted reproductive technology by improving implantation success, their large-scale generation remains a major challenge. Here, we report a rapid and scalable production of nanovesicles (NVs) from human trophectoderm cells (hTSCs) via membrane extrusion; these NVs can be generated in approximately 6 hours with a 20-fold higher yield than EVs isolated from the same number of cells. NVs display similar biophysical traits (morphologically intact, spherical, 90-130 nm) to EVs, and are laden with hallmark players of implantation (ITGA2/V, ITGB1, PRDX1, SOD2, and MFGE8) that include cell-matrix adhesion and extracellular matrix organisation proteins. Functionally, NVs are readily taken up by low-receptive endometrial HEC1A cells and reprogram their proteome towards a receptive phenotype that support hTSC spheroid attachment. Moreover, a single dose treatment of NVs significantly enhanced adhesion and spreading of mouse embryo trophoblast on fibronectin matrix. We show functional potential of NVs in enhancing embryo implantation and highlight their rapid and scalable generation, amenable to clinical utility.

Project description:In this work, we generated early human amnion-like tissues by culturing human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) in a bioengineered implantation-like niche in vitro. To explore the gene expression profile of hPSC-derived amnion-like cells (hPSC-amnion), we performed mRNA-sequencing for both undifferentiated hPSCs and hPSC-amnion. Here we show that hPSC-amnion differs from hPSCs by actively regulating a comprehensive set of transcriptional regulation network and developmental signaling pathways such as BMP-SMAD signaling.

Project description:The developmental origins of adult disease are now recognized to reflect intrauterine conditions during embryonic and fetal life. Cell-cell communication between the maternal endometrium and the pre-implantation embryo can occur by several means. Here, we show that maternal miRNAs are secreted by the endometrial epithelium to the endometrial fluid. Microarray assessments revealed the presence of specific miRNAs that are associated with the window of implantation and therefore in direct contact with the human preimplantation embryo. These miRNAS are transported as free or exosome-associated molecules secreted to the endometrial fluid and then uptake into the pre-implantation embryo through the trophoectoderm. Finally, these maternal miRNAsS were able to induce transcriptional and functional modifications of the embryo. Therefore, we propose an innovative model whereby endometrial maternal miRNAS may function as transcriptomic regulators during early embryo development offering a new perspective on the developmental origins of adult diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and others that are now recognized to reflect intrauterine conditions.

This is a prospective study in which endometrial fluid was obtained from healthy patients that had no underlying endometrial pathology and had regular menstrual cycles of between 25 and 33 days. None of these women had received a hormonal preparation in the 3 months preceding biopsy (fluid) collection. Endometrial (fluid) samples were distributed in five groups according to the phase in the cycle: group 1, Early Proliferative (EP) (days 1M-bM-^@M-^S8); group 2, Late Proliferate (LP) (days 9M-bM-^@M-^S14); group 3, Early Secretory (ES) (days 15M-bM-^@M-^S18); group 4, Window of Implantation (WOI) (days 19M-bM-^@M-^S22); and group 5, Late Secretory (LS) (days 23M-bM-^@M-^S28) according to the criteria of Noyes {Noyes:1975vl}. A total of 20 patients were included, four per group

Project description:Embryo implantation in the rabbit is unique in that a typical fusion type of implantation is employed, in which trophoblast cells adhere and fuse to the apical surface of uterine epithelial cells. In the present study, we analyzed global gene expression changes in the rabbit uterus during embryo implantation by using RNA-seq.
