The mechanism for prostaglandin (PG) F2α release from pig endometrium after oxytocin (OT) treatment is unknown. OT may rapidly stimulate inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG) formation, consistent with the concept of rapid activation of a second-messenger system. In support of this hypothesis, endometrial IP3 levels were increased (P < 0.05) within 0.5 min after treatment with 0.1 μM OT. In contrast, increased DAG formation was not detected after treatment with OT. However, similar to the stimulation of endometrial PGF2α secretion observed after OT treatment (P < 0.001), PGF2α release was increased (P < 0.01) after treatment with phorbol-12myristate-l3-acetate (PMA), which mimics DAG activation of protein kinase C. Further, stimulation of endometrial PGF2α secretion did not result from cell death induced by PMA or OT because lactate dehydrogenase, a cytosolic marker of cellular integrity, did not leak into the medium after PMA or OT treatment. In contrast, 0.5% saponin (positive control for cell death and concomitant release of lactate dehydrogenase) increased PGF2α secretion (P < 0.05) and lactate dehydrogenase release (P < 0.001). These results indicate that OT induces endometrial IP3 production in a rapid manner indicative of a second-messenger system. The finding that increased DAG was not also detected after OT treatment may reflect rapid metabolism or compartmentalized production of DAG involved in the second-messenger stimulation of phospholipase C. The high background of DAG used in the biosynthesis of cellular lipids would obscure the rather small spatially localized changes in DAG levels resulting from the activation of phospholipase C. The finding that DAG was present at approximately 10 to 20-fold higher levels than IP3 in resting cells was consistent with this conclusion. 相似文献

High concentrations of PGF2α and PGE2 are produced by the uterus during the early postpartum period in cows and may play an important role in both placental separation and uterine involution. In the present study, we have examined the hormonal and intracellular control mechanisms involved in PGF2α and PGE2 secretion by caruncular and allantochorionic tissue in vitro. Tissue explants, obtained about 6 hr postpartum from cows that delivered normally (NFM, n = 10) or cows with retained fetal membranes (RFM, n = 4), were incubated for 6 hr and PGF2α and PGE2 concentrations in the medium were determined by radioimmunoassay. Addition of oxytocin (100 μU/ml), platelet activating factor (PAF, 100 ng/ml) and epidermal growth factor (EGF, 100 ng/ml) had no effect on secretion of PGF2α from the caruncle, but oxytocin and PAF did stimulate PGE2. There was no difference between groups of cows. All three substances stimulated PGF2α from the allantochorion of NFM, but not RFM, cows and stimulated PGE2 secretion from the allantochorion of both groups of cows. Incubation of the tissues with cholera toxin (100 ng/ml), dibutyryl cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (dibutyryl cAMP, 1mM), calcium ionophore A23187 (5 μM) or phorbol ester 12-myristate-13 acetate (PMA, 100 nM) showed that PGF2α secretion is essentially via the calcium-protein kinase C effector pathway. However, calcium-protein kinase C and cAMP second messenger systems appear to be involved in the secretion of PGE2. Prostaglandin secretion was sensitive to cycloheximide in both caruncular and allantochorionic tissues, suggesting that protein synthesis may be involved. In conclusion, these data show that in vitro PGF2α secretion can be modulated by the agonists used only in allantochorion and is essentially via the calcium-protein kinase C effector pathway. PGE2 secretion can be modifified in both caruncular and allantochorion tissues and involves both inositol triphosphate-diacylglycerol and cAMP second messenger systems. 相似文献

Although prostaglandin (PG) F2α analogues are routinely used for oestrus synchronisation in cattle, their effects on the function of the bovine corpus luteum (CL), and on ovarian arterial contractility, may not reflect the physiological effects of endogenous PGF2α. In the first of two related experiments, the effects of different analogues of PGF2α (aPGF2α) on the secretory function and apoptosis of cultured bovine cells of the CL were assessed. Enzymatically-isolated bovine luteal cells (from between days 8 and 12 of the oestrous cycle), were stimulated for 24 h with naturally-occurring PGF2α or aPGF2α (dinoprost, cloprostenol or luprostiol). Secretion of progesterone (P4) was determined and cellular [Ca2+]i mobilisation, as well as cell viability and apoptosis were measured.Naturally-occurring PGF2α and dinoprost stimulated P4 secretion (P < 0.05), whereas cloprostenol and luprostiol did not influence P4 synthesis. The greatest cytotoxic and pro-apoptotic effects were observed in the luprostiol-treated cells, at 37.3% and 202%, respectively (P < 0.001). The greatest effect on [Ca2+]i mobilisation in luteal cells was observed post-luprostiol treatment (200%; P < 0.001).In a second experiment, the influence of naturally-occurring PGF2α and aPGF2α on ovarian arterial contraction in vitro, were examined. No differences in the effects of dinoprost or naturally-occurring PGF2α were found across the studied parameters. The effects of cloprostenol and luprostiol on luteal cell death, in addition to their effects on ovarian arterial contractility, were much greater than those produced by treatment with naturally-occurring PGF2α. 相似文献

One of the most important processes determining the proper course of gestation and its physiological termination in cows is the adhesion of epithelial cells allowing for direct contact of maternal and foetal parts of the placenta. Throughout pregnancy, placental cells are under strict hormonal control, which among others regulates the concentration and activity of specific proteins participating in the extracellular matrix remodelling of foetal membranes. The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of progesterone and prostaglandin F2α on the adhesion of epithelial cells at early-mid pregnancy in cows. Additionally, the impact of selected hormones on anti-adhesive properties of decorin was evaluated. Caruncular epithelial cells were isolated from healthy cows during pregnancy, immediately after slaughter. Primary cell cultures derived from the 2nd and 4th month of gestation were used in the experiments. The viability of cells was assessed by MTT assay. The adhesion of cells to fibronectin was measured spectrophotometrically. The activity of metalloproteinases was confirmed by the metalloproteinase assay. Progesterone (10–5 and 10–7 mol/L) and prostaglandin F2α (10–4, 10–5 and 10–7 mol/L) increased the viability of bovine caruncular epithelial cells in the 2nd month of pregnancy. The treatment with prostaglandin F2α significantly reduced the number of adherent cells from the 2nd month of gestation at the doses of 10–4 and 10–5 mol/L. Both progesterone and prostaglandin F2α were shown to have an effect of decorin resulting in both a decrease in metalloproteinase activity and an increase in adhesion of cells to fibronectin. 相似文献

Prostaglandin F2α (PGF) is considered to be the main luteolysin in cattle. We have previously demonstrated that cortisol (Cr) suppresses PGF production in non-pregnant bovine endometrium. This study was carried out to test whether exogenous PGF increases ovarian and/or uterine PGF production and to determine the temporal relationship between PGF and Cr in ovarian and uterine circulations during PGF-induced luteolysis in cows. Catheters were inserted into the ovarian vein (OV), uterine vein (UV) and jugular vein (JV) of 10 cows on Day 9 of the oestrous cycle (Ovulation = Day 0) for frequent blood collection. On Day 10, the cows were divided randomly into two groups and treated with a luteolytic dose of a PGF analogue (cloprostenol) or saline solution. Blood samples were collected at -0.25, 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1 and 2 h and then at 2-h intervals until 12 h after treatment (0 h). The basal concentrations of PGF and Cr in OV and UV plasma were not significantly different. Injection of a PGF analogue induced more than twofold increases in the levels of PGF between 0.25 and 1 h in UV plasma, but not in OV plasma. PGF increased (p < 0.05) the concentrations of Cr in OV, UV and JV plasma between 0.5 and 1 h. The Cr levels in OV, UV and JV plasma were similar. The PGF levels in UV plasma decreased after Cr reached its highest levels. The overall results suggest that the uterus rather than the ovary increases PGF production in response to PGF injection. Based on the temporal changes of PGF and Cr in the ovarian and uterine circulations, Cr may act to reduce uterine PGF production in non-pregnant cows in vivo. 相似文献

The objective of these experiments was to determine the role of Ca2+ during oxytocin-stimulated prostaglandin (PG) F2α release from bovine endometrial tissue in vitro. Uteri were collected from dairy cows on the day after spontaneous luteal regression. Caruncular endometrial explants were dissected and incubated in vitro to determine phospholipase C activity or PGF2α release. A23187 (a calcium ionophore) and maitotoxin (an activator of voltage-gated L-type calcium channels) stimulated release of PGF2α in a concentration-dependent manner (P < 0.05). Thapsigargin (induces accumulation of Ca2+ in the cytoplasm by inhibiting endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+/ATPase pumps) stimulated release of PGF2α in a concentration-dependent manner as well (P < 0.13). Oxytocin (10−6 M), AlF4− (a nonspecific activator of G-proteins; 10−5 M), A23187 (10−5 M), and melittin (a stimulator of phospholipase A2; 10−4 M) stimulated PGF2α release when explants were incubated in Ca2+-free medium (P < 0.10); however, oxytocin, A23187, or melittin were unable to stimulate PGF2α release when explants were incubated in Ca2+-free medium containing the calcium chelator EGTA (P < 0.10). This treatment did not prevent oxytocin or AlF4− from stimulating phospholipase C activity (P < 0.08). CoCl2 (a nonspecific Ca2+ channel blocker) and methoxyverapamil (a specific voltage-gated L-type Ca2+ channel blocker) prevented oxytocin from stimulating PGF2α release (P < 0.05). Our results suggest that both extracellular and intracellular Ca2+ may be required for oxytocin to stimulate PGF2α secretion in bovine endometrial tissue. 相似文献

We recently demonstrated that luteal cells flow out from the ovary via lymphatic vessels during luteolysis. However, the regulatory mechanisms of the outflow of luteal cells are not known. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) can degrade the extracellular matrix and basal membrane, and tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases (TIMPs) inhibit the activity of MMPs. To test the hypothesis that MMP expression in luteal cells is regulated by luteolytic factors, we investigated the effects of prostaglandin F2α (PGF), interferon γ (IFNG) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF) on the mRNA expression of MMPs and TIMPs in cultured luteal cells. Luteal cells obtained from the CL at the mid-luteal stage (days 8–12 after ovulation) were cultured with PGF (0.01, 0.1, 1 μM), IFNG (0.05, 0.5, 5 nM) and TNF (0.05, 0.5, 0.5 nM) alone or in combination for 24 h. PGF and IFNG significantly increased the expression of MMP-1 mRNA. In addition, 1 μM PGF in combination with 5 nM IFNG
stimulated MMP-1 and MMP-9 mRNA expression significantly more than either treatment alone. In contrast, IFNG significantly decreased the level of MMP-14 mRNA. The mRNA expression of TIMP-1, which preferentially inhibits MMP-1, was suppressed by 5 nM INFG. One μM PGF and 5 nM IFNG suppressed TIMP-2 mRNA expression. These results suggest a new role of MMPs: luteal MMPs stimulated by PGF and IFNG break down the extracellular matrix surrounding luteal cells, which accelerates detachment from the CL during luteolysis, providing an essential prerequisite for outflow of luteal cells from the CL to lymphatic vessels. 相似文献

Background
Estradiol (E2) is required for luteolysis in cows and its injection stimulates prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) release. The main goal of our study was to investigate the ability of endometrial explants and cells treated with E2 and the calcium ionophore (CI) A23187 to synthesize PGF2α.Results
Treatment with E2in vivo resulted in a 48.4% increase of PGF2α production by endometrial explants treated in vitro with A23187. Production of PGF2α was better stimulated with A23187 at concentrations of 10-6 and 10-5 mol/L compared with other concentrations used. The concentration of PGF2α for untreated bovine endometrial cell cultures was 33.1 pg/mL, while for cultures treated with E2, A23187, or a combination of E2 and A23187, the PGF2α concentration was 32.5, 92.4 and 145.6 pg/mL, respectively.Conclusions
Treatment with A23187 tended to stimulate PGF2α production. In the presence of E2, A23187 significantly stimulated PGF2α synthesis. It appears that A23187 potentiates the effects of E2 with respect to synthesis of endometrial PGF2α in cattle. 相似文献15.

Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is involved in the tissue remodeling that occurs in the corpus luteum (CL) during its development and regression. This cytokine is also implicated in the regulation of reproduction by its actions on ovarian steroidogenic cells. The aim of this study was to examine the influence of TNF-α on (1) progesterone (P(4)) output by the bovine CL and on (2) the responsiveness of the CL to LH or prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) in vitro. In experiment 1, CL (days 8 to 10 of the estrous cycle) were perfused by using an in vitro microdialysis system with TNF-α (0.1, 0.5, or 1 μg/mL) alone or with TNF-α (1 μg/mL) followed by LH (1000 ng/mL) or PGE(2) (2 × 10(-5) M). Basal P(4) release (P < 0.05) was increased by TNF-α (0.5 or 1 μg/mL). Moreover, TNF-α (1 μg/mL) inhibited the stimulatory effect of LH or PGE(2) on P(4) output (P < 0.05). In experiment 2, 4 h after intrauterine infusion of TNF-α (0.01 μg/mL or 1 μg/mL), CL (days 8 to 10 of the estrous cycle) were collected by colpotomy, cultured, and stimulated with LH (10 ng/mL) or PGE(2) (10(-6) M). Intrauterine infusion of TNF-α at a concentration of 1 μg/mL increased basal P(4) output by CL (P < 0.05). Moreover, the intrauterine infusion of TNF-α at a concentration of 0.01 μg/mL inhibited the stimulatory effect of LH or PGE(2) on P(4) output (P < 0.05). These results indicate that TNF-α (1) does not have an effect on the autonomous, pulsatile release of P(4); (2) increases P(4) secretion by bovine CL with increasing doses, and (3) reduces in a dose-dependent manner the responsiveness of CL to luteotropic factors both directly (after infusion to CL) and indirectly (after intrauterine infusion). 相似文献

Pulmonary function tests were performed in six healthy calves. Prostaglandin F2 causes severe narrowing of both upper and lower airways (total lung resistance increased, dynamic compliance decreased). Clenbuterol administered intravenously fifteen minutes prior to prostaglandin F2 aerosol, and in increasing doses (0, 0.4, 0.8, 1.2 g/kg), on days 1, 2, 4 and 6 of the experiment, effectively but not entirely suppressed these responses.These data indicate that -adrenergic receptors are present in the bovine airways and that the use of clenbuterol (0.8 g/kg) may be effective in treating clinical respiratory disease such as bronchopneumonia in calves. 相似文献

Ovarian steroids assure an optimum environment for the final maturation of oocytes, gamete transport, fertilization, and early embryonic development. The aim of experiment 1 was to examine the influence of ovarian steroids on tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)- or nitric oxide (NO)-regulated prostaglandin (PG), and nitrite/nitrate (NO2/NO3) secretion by cultured bovine oviductal epithelial cells (BOECs). BOECs were pretreated with 17β-estradiol (E2; 10−9 M) and/or progesterone (P4; 10−7 M) for 24 h. For the next 24 h, BOECs were treated with TNF-α (10 ng/mL) or spermine nitric oxide complex (NONOate; 10−5 M). Prostaglandin F2α and PGE2 secretion was measured in medium by ELISA. The pretreatment of cells with P4 (progesterone), E2 (17 β-estradiol), or E2/P4 augmented TNF-α-induced PGF2α and PGE2 secretion (P < 0.01). The pretreatment of cells with E2 or E2/P4 increased NONOate-induced PGF2α and PGE2 secretion (P < 0.01). TNF-α induced NO2/NO3 production by BOECs. The pretreatment of cells with E2 augmented only TNF-α-induced NO2/NO3 production (P < 0.05). The aim of experiment 2 was to examine the influence of TNF-α, NO, and ovarian steroids on the protein content of enzymes specifically involved in PG and NO production, PG synthases, and NO synthases (NOSs). BOECs were treated with TNF-α (10 ng/mL) or NONOate (10−5 M). TNF-α increased the protein content of PGG/H synthase, PGF synthase, and PGE synthase (P < 0.05) and endothelial and inducible NOSs (P < 0.05). Nitric oxide increased the protein content of PGF synthase, PGE synthase, endothelial NOS, and inducible NOS (P < 0.05). These results show possible linkage between TNF-α and NO, modulated by ovarian steroids, in the regulation of PG synthesis by BOECs that may be important for triggering the process of oviductal contractions. 相似文献
