Administration of prostaglandin (PG) F2α in cattle during the mid-luteal phase (Days 8-12 of the estrous cycle) drastically reduces the plasma progesterone concentrations and the volume of the corpus luteum (CL). However, PGF2α does not induce luteolysis during the early luteal phase (up to Day 5 of the estrous cycle). To characterize the possible distinct difference in acute response to a luteolytic dose of PGF2α administration, we determined various mRNA expressions in the early and mid CL relating to angiogenesis, vasoactivation and PG-related factors at 30 min after PGF2α injection in cyclic cows. The experiments were conducted on Day 4 (early CL) and Days 10-12 (mid CL). Cows were either injected with 500 μg PGF2α analogue or saline as the control...

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 PGF2α-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...
