Advanced maternal age is a risk factor for female infertility, and placental dysfunction is considered one of the causes of pregnancy complications. We investigated the effects of advanced maternal aging on pregnancy outcomes and placental senescence. Female pregnant mice were separated into three groups: young (3 months old), middle (8–9 months old), and aged (11–13 months old). Although the body weights of young and middle dams gradually increased during pregnancy, the body weight of aged dams only increased slightly. The placental weight and resorption rate were significantly higher, and live fetal weights were reduced in a maternal age-dependent manner. Although mRNA expression of senescence regulatory factors (p16 and p21) increased in the spleen of aged dams, mRNA expression of p16 did not change and that of p21 was reduced in the placenta of aged dams. Using a cytokine array of proteins extracted from placental tissues, the expression of various types of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) factors was decreased in aged dams compared with young and middle dams. The aged maternal placenta showed reduced immune cell accumulation compared with the young placenta. Our present results suggest that models using pregnant mice older than 8 months are more suitable for verifying older human pregnancies. These findings suggest that general cellular senescence programs may not be included in the placenta and that placental functions, including SASP production and immune cell accumulation, gradually decrease in a maternal age-dependent manner, resulting in a higher rate of pregnancy complications.  相似文献

Prostaglandin F(2alpha) (PGF(2alpha)) is the primary luteolysin in the cow, and luteal endothelin-1 (ET-1) interacts with PGF(2alpha) during the process of luteolysis. In contrast, a developing corpus luteum (CL) is refractory to exogenous administration of PGF(2alpha). Thus, the present study was aimed to investigate the functional relationship between ET-1 and PGF(2alpha) in the mid-CL (PGF(2alpha)-sensitive) and early-CL (PGF(2alpha)-refractory). In the mid-CL model, cows (n = 6/treatment) were assigned to receive one of five types of treatments on day 10 of the estrous cycle: (1) an injection of saline; control, (2) a 500 microg of PGF(2alpha) analogue (sufficient dose to induce luteolytis); full-PG, (3) an intraluteal injection of 0.25 mg ET-1; ET-1, (4) a 125 micro g of PGF(2alpha) (insufficient dose to induce luteolytis); 1/4PG or (5) an intraluteal injection of 0.25 mg ET-1 after administration of a insufficient dose of PGF(2alpha) analogue; 1/4PG/ET. In the early-CL model, cows were assigned to receive one of two types of treatments on day 5 of the estrous cycle: (1) a sufficient dose of PGF(2alpha) analogue; PG (n = 5) or (2) an intraluteal injection ET-1 after a sufficient dose of PGF(2alpha); PG/ET (n = 7). In the mid-CL model, 1/4PG/ET resulted in a rapid reduction of progesterone (P) concentrations similar to that in full-PG from the next day. However, the levels of P in 1/4PG/ET (1.5-2.5 ng/ml) kept significantly higher than that in full-PG (< 0.5 ng/ml). ET-1 or 1/4PG did not decrease plasma P concentrations (4-6 ng/ml). The plasma ET-1 levels increased with the full-PG administration. In the early-CL model, both treatments had no effect on plasma P increase and ET-1 levels. The overall results indicate that the intraluteal ET-1 injection after administration of insufficient dose of PGF(2alpha) induces the depression of P secretion in vivo during the mid luteal phase in the cow, supporting the concept that ET-1 is one of a local mediator of functional luteolysis in the cow. The result further indicates that the early-CL is not only PG-refractory but also ET-1-refractory.  相似文献

In cows, interferon-tau (IFNT) regulates maternal recognition around days 15-19 after artificial insemination (AI). The present study hypothesized that if key target genes of IFNT are clearly upregulated in earlier stages of pregnancy, these genes could be use as indices of future pregnancy in cows. Therefore, we determined the expression of these genes in peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes (PBMCs) and polymorphonuclear granulocytes (PMNs) during the maternal recognition period (MRP). Twenty multiparous Holstein cows were subjected to AI on day 0 and categorized into the following groups: pregnancy (Preg, n = 9), embryonic death (ED, n = 5) and non-pregnancy (NP, n = 6). Progesterone levels in the Preg group were higher than those in the NP group on days 12-21. ISG15 and OAS-1 (IFN-stimulated genes: ISGs) mRNA in PBMCs on day 8 was higher in the Preg group than in the NP group, and these mRNAs in PMNs was higher in the Preg group on day 5 than in the NP and ED groups. Interleukin-10 (IL-10, Th2 cytokine) mRNA expression increased on day 8 in the PBMCs of pregnant cows. Tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα, Th1 cytokine) mRNA expression was stable in all groups. In an in vitro cell culture experiment, IFNT stimulated mRNA expression of ISGs in both PBMCs and PMNs. IFNT stimulated IL-10 mRNA expression in PBMCs, whereas IFNT increased TNFα mRNA levels in PBMCs in vitro. The results suggest that ISGs and IL-10 could be responsive to IFNT before the MRP in peripheral blood immune cells and may be useful target genes for reliable indices of pregnancy before the MRP.  相似文献

Prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha) is the primary luteolysin in the cow. During the early luteal phase, the corpus luteum (CL) is resistant to the luteolytic effect of PGF2alpha. Once mature, the CL becomes responsive to PGF2alpha and undergoes luteal regression. These actions of PGF2alpha coincide with changes in luteal blood flow (BF): PGF2alpha has no effect on BF in the early CL, but acutely increases BF in the peripheral vasculature of the mature CL within 30 min of PGF2alpha injection. During spontaneous luteolysis, luteal BF increases on Days 17-18 of the estrous cycle, prior to any decrease in plasma progesterone (P). The increase in luteal BF is synchronous with an increase in plasma PGFM levels, suggesting that pulsatile release of PGF2alpha from uterus stimulates the increase in luteal BF. Serial biopsies of these CL showed that mRNA expression for endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) together with endothelin-1 (ET-1) and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) increases on Days 17-18 when the luteal BF is elevated. On Day 19 when plasma P level firstly decreases, eNOS mRNA returns to the basal level whereas ET-1 and ACE mRNA remains elevated. Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) mRNA expression increases on Day 19. In support of these data, an in vivo microdialysis study revealed that luteal ET-1 and angiotensin II (Ang II) secretion increases and precedes PGF2alpha secretion during spontaneous luteolysis. In conclusion, we show for the first time that an acute increase of BF occurs in the peripheral vasculature of the mature CL together with increases in eNOS expression and ET-1 and Ang II secretion in the CL during the early stages of luteolysis in the cow. We propose that the increase in luteal BF may be induced by NO from large arterioles surrounding the CL, and simultaneously uterine or exogenous PGF2alpha directly increases ET-1 and Ang II secretion from endothelial cells of microcapillary vessels within the CL, thereby suppressing P secretion by luteal cells. Taken together, our results indicate that an acute increase in luteal BF occurs as a first step of luteolysis in response to PGF2alpha. Therefore, local BF plays a key role to initiate luteal regression in the cow.  相似文献

Prostaglandin F (PGF) induces luteolysis in the mid but not in the early luteal phase; despite this, both the early and the mid corpus luteum (CL) have PGF receptor (FPr). We previously indicated that the luteal blood flow surrounding the CL drastically increases prior to a decrease of progesterone (P) in the cows, suggesting that an acute increase of luteal blood flow may be an early sign of luteolysis in response to PGF and that this may be induced by a vasorelaxant nitric oxide (NO). The aim of this study was to investigate the luteal stage‐dependent and the site‐restricted effect of PGF and NO on the mRNA expressions and P secretion. To mimic the local luteal region both of peripheral and central areas of the CL, we utilized co‐cultures using bovine aorta endothelial cells (EC), smooth muscle cells (SMC) and luteinizing granulosa cells (GC) or fully‐luteinized GC. PGF stimulated the expression of endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) mRNA at 0.5 h in mix‐cultures of EC and SMC with fully‐luteinized GC but not with luteinizing GC. The expression of eNOS mRNA in EC was increased by PGF at 1 h only when EC was cultured together with fully‐luteinized GC but not with luteinizing GC. In all co‐cultures, PGF did not affect the mRNA expression of FPr. Treatment of NO donor inhibited P secretion at 0.5 h. In conclusion, the present study suggests that the coexistence of the mature luteal cells (fully‐luteinized GC) with EC/SMC may be crucial for acquiring functional NO synthesis induced by PGF.  相似文献

The corpus luteum (CL) undergoes regression by prostaglandin (PG)F(2alpha) from uterus and endothelin-1 (ET-1) plays an important role during luteolysis as a local mediator of PGF(2alpha) in the cow. Endothelial cells (EC) and luteal cells are main cell types making up the CL and their interactions are vital for CL function. We aimed to examine the relevance of interactions between EC and luteal cells on stimulation of genes which involved ET-1 synthesis by PGF(2alpha). We further focused the impact of maturity of luteal cells on the stimulation of the genes. To make a microenvironment which resembles the CL, we used bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAEC) and luteinizing or fully-luteinized granulosa cells (GC) and evaluated the effect of PGF(2alpha) on the expression for mRNA of ET-1 system by using real-time RT-PCR. PGF(2alpha) stimulated the expression of preproET-1 and endothelin converting enzyme-1 mRNA only in the co-cultures of BAEC with fully-luteinized GC, but not with luteinizing GC. The data suggest that interactions between BAEC and fully-luteinized GC enhance the capability of BAEC to produce ET-1 in response to PGF(2alpha). This mechanism may contribute to the local induction of luteolytic action of PGF(2alpha) which is dependent on the age/maturation of the CL.  相似文献

Cell-to-cell interaction via cell contact-dependent pathway is essentially important for maintenance and regulation of corpus luteum (CL) integrity and its physiological actions. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the mRNA expression of the cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) that are constituent factors of gap junctions [connexin (Cx) 43] and adherence junctions (VE-, E-, N-cadherin) in two types of endothelial cells from the mid CL and in CL tissue during the estrous cycle and PGF(2alpha)-induced luteolysis in the cow. Specific mRNA expression for Cx43 and N-cadherin was detected in cytokeratin-positive (CK+) and cytokeratin-negative (CK-) luteal endothelial cells (EC) and fully luteinized granulosa cells (LGC). E-cadherin mRNA was expressed in CK+EC and LGC, but not in CK-EC. VE-cadherin mRNA was expressed in both CK+ and CK-EC. During the estrous cycle, Cx43 mRNA expression was significantly lower in the regressing CL. VE-cadherin expression also tended to increase in the mid CL and increased significantly in the regressing CL. E-cadherin mRNA expression was higher in the early and late CL than in the mid- and regressing CL. N-cadherin mRNA expression gradually increased from the early to late CL followed by a decrease in the regressing CL. During PGF(2alpha)-induced luteolysis, Cx43 mRNA expression appeared to increase, and VE-cadherin and E-cadherin mRNA significantly increased at 24 h. N-cadherin mRNA expression decreased 2 and 4 h after PGF(2alpha) administration. Collectively, expression of the mRNAs for CAMs was different in the two types of luteal endothelial cells and fully luteinized granulosa cells and changed independently in the CL during the estrous cycle and PGF(2alpha)-induced luteolysis in the cow. The results suggest that CAMs play physiological roles in cell-to-cell communication to regulate both gap and adherence junctions during CL development and regression in the cow.  相似文献

In this study, we examined the effects of reconstructed oocyte–granulosa cell complexes (OGCs) on the development of porcine oocytes derived from early antral follicles (EAFs; 0.5–0.7 mm in diameter). When denuded oocytes were cocultured with granulosa cells derived from other EAFs, the oocytes and granulosa cells aggregated to form OGCs after 2 days of culture. After 14 days of culture, we compared cell number, oocyte diameter, and oocyte chromatin configuration in unmanipulated (natural) OGCs, reconstructed OGCs, and OGCs collected from antral follicles (AFs, 3.0–6.0 mm in diameter). The diameters of oocytes from reconstructed OGCs grown in vitro were not different from those of oocytes from natural OGCs, although they were significantly smaller than those of oocytes from antral follicle (AF) OGCs. Oocyte chromatin configuration did not differ among the 3 OGC groups, but the oocyte nuclear maturation rate was lower in the reconstructed OGCs and higher in the AF OGCs. However, when the in vitro culture period for the reconstructed OGCs was extended by 2 days, the nuclear maturation rate of oocytes from reconstructed OGCs was similar to that of oocytes from natural OGCs. In addition, blastocysts were successfully obtained from oocytes from reconstructed OGCs. In conclusion, we established an innovative culture method that allows oocytes and granulosa cells from EAFs to reaggregate as reconstructed OGCs, which yield oocytes with the ability to develop to the blastocyst stage.  相似文献

The present study aimed to assess the effect of polymorphisms in the tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) promoter (A/A, A/G and G/G) and exons (T/T, T/C and C/C) on immune function and reproductive performance in dairy cows. The occurrence of the first postpartum ovulation within 3 weeks in the cows with the TNF-α promoter A/G and G/G genotypes was higher than in the A/A group. Among the different TNF-α exon genotypes, the occurrence of early first postpartum ovulation was higher in the T/C and C/C genotype groups than in the T/T group. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the TNF-α gene did not affect the rate of artificial insemination (AI) or duration from parturition to next conception (days open). The apoptosis rate of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) did not differ among the TNF-α promoter genotypes, but the PMN transmigration rate was significantly higher for the A/A and A/G genotypes than for the G/G genotype. Interleukin 8 (IL-8) mRNA expression in PMNs and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) before culture was significantly higher for the A/A genotype compared with the G/G genotype. There were no significant differences between the genotypes in the mRNA expression of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, and toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) in PMNs and PBMCs before and 4 h after culture. IL-8 and IL-1β production by PBMCs cultured for 4 h was significantly higher for the animals with the A/A genotype than for those with the G/G genotype. On the other hand, no significant difference was observed in IL-8 and IL-1β production by PMNs among different TNF-α genotypes. Taken together, these results suggest that SNP in the TNF-α gene affects immune function and reproductive performance in dairy cows.  相似文献
