(Submitter supplied) Establishment of pregnancy in ruminants requires blastocyst growth to form an elongated conceptus that produces interferon tau, the pregnancy recognition signal, and initiates implantation. Blastocyst growth and development requires secretions from the uterine endometrium. An early increase in circulating concentrations of progesterone (P4) stimulates blastocyst growth and elongation in ruminants. This study utilized sheep as a model to identify candidate genes and regulatory networks in the endometrium that govern pre-implantation blastocyst growth and development. more...

(Submitter supplied) An increase in circulating progesterone (P4) concentrations is associated with increased pregnancy success in beef and dairy cattle. Our objective was to ascertain differential effects of elevated P4 concentrations following conception on endometrial gene expression in beef heifers on Days 5, 7, 13 and 16 of pregnancy, corresponding to the morula, blastocyst, elongation and maternal recognition of pregnancy stages, respectively. more...

(Submitter supplied) Temporal changes in the embryo transcriptome between the blastocyst stage (Day 7) and initiation of elongation (Day 13) differ between in vivo- and in vitro-derived embryos and are reflective of subsequent developmental fate. The aim of this study was to examine the temporal changes in transcriptional profile as the embryo develops from a spherical blastocyst on Day 7 to an ovoid conceptus at the initiation of elongation on Day 13 and to highlight differences in these temporal gene expression dynamics between in vivo- and in vitro-derived blastocysts which may be associated with embryonic survival/mortality using the bovine Affymetrix microarray.

(Submitter supplied) The porcine conceptus undergoes rapid differentiation and expansion of its trophoblastic membranes between Days 11 and 12 of gestation. Concomitant with trophoblast elongation, production of conceptus estrogen, the porcine embryonic pregnancy recognition signal increases. Conceptus attachment to the uterine surface epithelium starts after Day 13 initiating epitheliochorial placentation. To analyze the transcriptome changes in the endometrium in the course of maternal recognition of pregnancy (MRP), deep sequencing of endometrial RNA samples of Day 12 pregnant animals (n=4) and corresponding non-pregnant controls (n=4) was performed using Illumina RNA-Seq. more...

(Submitter supplied) PPARG ChIP seq analysis was conducted to determine genes bound by and potentially regulated by PPARG in the developing ovine conceptus. Determination of gene regulation by prostaglandins through PPARG helps to improve our understanding of early pregnancy events and provides a basis for strategies to improve fertility and reproductive efficiency in ruminants.

(Submitter supplied) RNA seq analysis was conducted to determine gene expression in the day 14 ovine conceptus. This was used in conjunction with the day 14 PPARG ChIP-seq analysis to identify genes bound by PPARG which were also expressed or not expressed in the day 14 conceptus. Understanding changes in gene expression during early pregnancy is critical to improving fertility and reproductive efficiency in ruminants.

(Submitter supplied) At implantation the endometrium undergoes dramatic modifications necessary for its physical interactions with the trophoblast as well as the development of the conceptus. We aim to identify endometrial factors and pathways essential for a successful implantation in the caruncular [C] and the intercaruncular [IC] areas in cattle. The [C versus IC] direct comparison revealed 1177 and 453 DEG in cyclic and pregnant animals respectively, with a major impact of the conceptus on metabolism and cell adhesion. more...

(Submitter supplied) Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs), known to modulate gene expression through post-transcriptional mechanisms, were implied in regulation of early pregnancy events including maternal recognition of pregnancy and implantation. To characterize complex transcriptomic changes in expression of miRNAs in pregnant and cyclic endometria collected on days 12, 16 and 20 was analyzed using Illumina deep sequencing. This research showed repertoire of pregnancy-related miRNAs in porcine endometrium during initial stages of conceptus implantation and during the estrous cycle and sheds light on miRNA-mediated gene expression regulation mechanism at the maternal-conceptus interface.
