The role of murine cell surface galactosyltransferase in trophoblast: laminin interactions in vitro 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Implantation of the mouse embryo involves the invasion of the secondary trophoblast giant cells of the ectoplacental cone (EPC) into the uterine decidua. The mechanisms of this event are poorly understood. The putative substrate molecules found in the decidua which could support trophoblast invasion include laminin, fibronectin, and collagen type IV. EPCs dissected from Day 7.5 embryos were cultured on all three matrices. Galactosyltransferase (GalTase) was localized by immunolabeling on trophoblast cell surfaces when grown on laminin but not the other matrices. Perturbations of the enzyme:substrate complex with alpha-lactalbumin, uridine diphosphogalactose, anti-GalTase, and pregalactosylation of the matrix did not affect rates of EPC attachment. However, decreased rates of migration or altered morphologies of spreading cells were observed. Laminin, and not fibronectin or collagen type IV, could be galactosylated with both exogenous GalTase or EPC outgrowths. Digests of galactosylated laminin produced a glycoconjugate substrate with a molecular weight of less than 10K. The results suggest that invasive secondary trophoblast cells possess a GalTase-mediated migration system that is functional on laminin. 相似文献

Successful pregnancy depends on the precise regulation of extravilloustrophoblast (EVT) invasion into the uterine decidua. SPARC (secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine) is a matricellular glycoprotein that plays critical roles in the pathologies associated with obesity and diabetes, as well as tumorigenesis. The objective of this study was to investigate the role of SPARC in the process of trophoblast invasion which shares many similarities with tumor cell invasion. By Western blot, higher expression of SPARC was observed in mouse brain, ovary and uterus compared to other mouse tissues. Immunohistochemistry analysis revealed a spatio-temporal expression of SPARC in mouse uterus in the periimplantation period. At the implantation site of d8 pregnancy, SPARC mainly accumulated in the secondary decidua zone (SDZ), trophoblast cells and blastocyst. The expression of SPARC was also detected in human placental villi and trophoblast cell lines. In a Matrigel invasion assay, we found SPARC-specific RNA interference significantly reduced the invasion of human extravilloustrophoblast HTR8/SVneo cells. Microarray analysis revealed that SPARC depletion upregulated the expression of interleukin 11 (IL11), KISS1, insulin-like growth factor binding protein 4 (IGFBP4), collagen type I alpha 1 (COLIA1), matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP9), and downregulated the expression of the alpha polypeptide of chorionic gonadotropin (CGA), MMP1, gap junction protein alpha 1 (GJA1), et al. The gene array result was further validated by qRT-PCR and Western blot. The present data indicate that SPARC may play an important role in the regulation of normal placentation by promoting the invasion of trophoblast cells into the uterine decidua. 相似文献

Abstract: Biopsies of placentas (n = 21), placental bed (n = 17) and decidua (n = 26) of various gestation periods (30 to 140 days) were used to study trophoblast invasion in the baboon. Application of immunohistochemical staining for cytokeratin allowed proper identification of trophoblast. Earlier reports showing restricted trophoblast invasion in this species were confirmed by the finding that endovascular trophoblast was present in only one third of biopsies containing spiral arteries. Moreover, immunostaining for cytokeratin revealed that in several arteries only a few isolated trophoblastic cells were present, while the vessel had not undergone the normal physiological change. Trophoblast invasion could only be detected within decidual, but not in myometrial, segments of spiral arteries. Interstitial trophoblast invasion was very limited and multinuclear giant cells were absent. Immunohistochemical staining suggested a contribution of laminin to the fibrinoid deposition within the physiologically changed spiral arteries, while fibronectin was present intracellularly in the invaded trophoblast. Because of differences in the trophoblast invasion pattern, the baboon cannot be regarded as a satisfactory experimental model to explore results of inadequate endovascular trophoblast invasion which, in the human, leads to pregnancy complications such a preeclampsia. 相似文献

Trophoblast cell invasion into the uterine wall is characteristic of hemochorial placentation. In this report, we examine trophoblast cell invasion in the rat and mouse, the endocrine phenotype of invasive trophoblast cells, and aspects of the regulation of trophoblast cell invasion. In the rat, trophoblast cells exhibit extensive interstitial and endovascular invasion. Trophoblast cells penetrate through the decidua and well into the metrial gland, where they form intimate associations with the vasculature. Trophoblast cell invasion in the mouse is primarily interstitial and is restricted to the mesometrial decidua. Both interstitial and endovascular rat trophoblast cells synthesize a unique set of prolactin (PRL)-like hormones/cytokines, PRL-like protein-A (PLP-A), PLP-L, and PLP-M. Invading mouse trophoblast cells also possess endocrine activities, including the expression of PLP-M and PLP-N. The trafficking of natural killer (NK) cells and trophoblast cells within the mesometrial uterus is reciprocal in both the rat and mouse. As NK cells disappear from the mesometrial compartment, a subpopulation of trophoblast cells exit the chorioallantoic placenta and enter the decidua. Furthermore, the onset of interstitial trophoblast cell invasion is accelerated in mice with a genetic deficiency of NK cells, Tg epsilon 26 mice, implicating a possible regulatory role of NK cells in trophoblast cell invasion. Additionally, the NK cell product, interferon-gamma (IFNgamma), inhibits trophoblast cell outgrowth, and trophoblast cell invasion is accelerated in mice with a genetic deficiency in the IFNgamma or the IFNgamma receptor. In summary, trophoblast cells invade the uterine wall during the last week of gestation in the rat and mouse and possess a unique endocrine phenotype, and factors present in the uterine mesometrial compartment modulate their invasive behavior. 相似文献

Involvement of cyclin D3, CDKN1A (p21), and BIRC5 (Survivin) in interleukin 11 stimulation of decidualization in mice 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Interleukin 11 receptor alpha (Il11ra) null mice are infertile due to defective decidualization and abnormal trophoblast invasion. We have previously shown in these mice that downregulation of decidual proteinase inhibitors plays a role in uncontrolled trophoblast invasion. However, the decidua is abnormally smaller in pseudopregnant Il11ra null mice, where trophoblast invasion is not a factor. Here, we examined whether defective decidualization is due to dysregulation of key molecules involved in decidual cell growth and differentiation. We found a dramatic downregulation of cyclin D3 in Il11ra null mice. We also found that IL11 robustly stimulates the expression of cyclin D3 in cell culture. CDK4 and CDK6, known partners of cyclin D3, are not affected. Immunolocalization studies show absence of cyclin D3 in the mesometrial site and absence of differentiated polyploid cells in the antimesometrial site of Il11ra null mice. We also examined the expression of cell differentiation factors CDKN1A (p21) and CDKN1B (p27), and found that in both in vivo and cell culture the expression of CDKN1A (p21) but not CDKN1B (p27) is under the control of IL11. Another clear target of IL11 in the decidua is BIRC5 (Survivin), whose expression is repressed in the decidua of Il11ra null mice and stimulated by IL11 in cell culture. Taken together, these results provide, at least in part, an explanation for the defective small decidua of mice lacking the Il11ra gene, and reveal for the first time that cyclin D3, CDKN1A (p21), and BIRC5 (Survivin) are targets of IL11 in the decidua. 相似文献

Although CD8+ T lymphocytes are present in human decidua throughout pregnancy, albeit as a minor population in early pregnancy, their role in normal pregnancy is largely unknown. The present study aimed to characterize their effector phenotype, including cytolytic activity, cytokine profile, and capacity to affect placental invasion. CD8+ lymphocytes were positively selected from normal early pregnancy decidua (7-14 wks gestational age). Decidual CD8+ T lymphocytes were studied using standard and redirected chromium release assays to investigate natural killer cell-sensitive cytotoxicity and cytotoxicity that requires T-cell receptor signal transduction respectively, multiplex cytokine analysis to analyze cytokine production, and a placental explant invasion model to assess the effect of soluble products of decidual CD8+ T lymphocytes on trophoblast invasion. Decidual CD8+ T lymphocytes exhibited cytolytic ability against P815 target cells (mean % Specific Chromium Release at effector:target ratio of 32:1 [SCR(32)] of 32.7 +/- 5.8) and against K562 target cells (mean SCR(32) of 20.3 +/- 0.5). Phytohemagglutinin-P (PHA-P)-stimulated decidual CD8(+) T lymphocytes produced high levels of both interferon gamma and interleukin (IL) 8, and low levels of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (CSF2), IL1B, IL2, IL6, IL10, IL12, and tumor necrosis factor; these did not vary with gestational age. IL4 was undetectable. Decidual CD8+ T lymphocyte supernatants increased the capacity of extravillous trophoblast cells to invade through Matrigel compared with the PHA-P control. These findings suggest that decidual CD8+ T cells can display cytolytic activity, do not evoke a predominant local intrauterine Th2 type cytokine environment, and may act to regulate invasion of extravillous trophoblast cells into the uterus, a crucial process for normal uteroplacental development. 相似文献

The objective of this work was to develop an in vitro system that would extend the usefulness of the macaque as a model for studying trophoblast invasion and spiral artery modification. We sought to determine whether trophoblast cells isolated from early gestation macaque placentas expressed vitronectin receptors and tested the idea that these receptors play a role in trophoblast migration and adhesion. Cytotrophoblast cells were isolated from 40-100 day macaque placentas, cultured, and characterized by immunofluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. The cells expressed alphaV, beta3, and beta1 integrins on their surfaces. Immunohistochemical analysis of early gestation placentas and decidua basalis confirmed that intravascular trophoblast cells express alphaVbeta3/beta5. Using migration chambers we found that the trophoblast cells migrated towards vitronectin but not towards bovine serum albumin. This specific migration was blocked by preincubating the trophoblast cells with anti-vitronectin receptor (alphaVbeta3/beta5) antibodies. In other experiments, macaque trophoblast cells adhered to myometrial endothelial cells in a time-dependent manner and adhesion was significantly blocked by antibodies against alphaVbeta3/beta5 integrin. The results suggest that vitronectin receptors expressed by macaque trophoblast cells play a role in the migratory activity of these cells and may also be important in mediating attachment to endothelium. 相似文献

本实验利用原位杂交对小鼠妊娠不同时期胎盘中MMP-2,TIMP-2,-3mRNA的表达进行了研究。结果表明;MMP-2主要在具有很强的侵润能力的海绵滋养层细胞中表达,到妊娠13.5天时,MMP-2的表达明显降低,说明此时的滋养层细胞基本上失去侵润能力。TMIP-1和TMIP-3在滋养层细胞和蜕膜细胞中都有表达,这两种抑制因子的协同表达,一方面能够调控滋养层细胞侵入子宫内膜的深度,另一方面,滋养层细胞自身既表达MMP-2又表达TIMPs,可能对其自身有保护作用,使得MMP的水解功能局限于子宫蜕膜的特定区域。在妊娠10.5天,滋养层巨细胞同时表达TIMP-1,-3mRNA,这可能与其功能的转换是一致的;因为此时小鼠滋养层巨细胞体积最大,且不再增殖,同时其功能屯从侵入型向内分泌型转换。所以,MMPs和TIMPs在小鼠滋养层细胞和子宫蜕膜中的协同表达表明其在着床过程中可能发挥重要作用。 相似文献

Human embryo implantation is a complex process involving blastocyst attachment to the endometrial epithelium and subsequent trophoblast invasion of the decidua. Chemokines, critical regulators of leukocyte migration, are abundant in endometrial epithelial and decidual cells at this time. We hypothesized that endometrial chemokines stimulate trophoblast invasion. Chemokine receptors CX3CR1 and CCR1 were immunolocalized in human first-trimester implantation sites, specifically to endovascular extravillous trophoblasts, but not to the invading interstitial EVTs (iEVTs), with weak staining also on syncytium. CCR3 was localized to invading iEVTs and to microvilli on the syncytial surface. Expression of CX3CL1 (fractalkine), CCL7 (MCP-3), and their receptors (CX3CR1, CCR1, CCR2, CCR3, and CCR5) mRNA was examined in cellular components of the maternal-embryonic interface by RT-PCR. Both chemokines were abundant in entire endometrium and placenta, endometrial cells (primary cultures and HES, a human endometrial epithelial cell line) and trophoblast cell lines (JEG-3, ACIM-88, and ACIM-32). Chemokine receptor mRNA was expressed by placenta and trophoblast cell lines: CCR1 by all trophoblast cell types, whereas CCR2, CCR3, and CX3CR1 were more variable. CX3CR1, CCR1, CCR2, and CCR5 were also expressed by endometrial cells. Migration assays used the trophoblast cell line most closely resembling extravillous cytotrophoblast (AC1M-88). Trophoblast migration occurred in response to CX3CL1, CCL14, and CCL4, but not CCL7. Endometrial cell-conditioned media also stimulated trophoblast migration; this was attenuated by neutralizing antibodies to CX3CL1 and CCL4. Thus, chemokines are expressed by maternal and embryonic cells during implantation, whereas corresponding receptors are on trophoblast cells. Promotion of trophoblast migration by chemokines and endometrial cell conditioned medium indicates an important involvement of chemokines in maternal-fetal communication. 相似文献

Background
In humans trophoblast invasion and vascular remodeling are critical to determine the fate of pregnancy. Since guinea-pigs share with women an extensive migration of the trophoblasts through the decidua and uterine arteries, and a haemomonochorial placenta, this species was used to evaluate the spatio-temporal expression of three enzymes that have been associated to trophoblast invasion, MMP-2, MMP-9 and tissue kallikrein (K1). 相似文献14.
Mechanism of control of trophoblast invasion in situ. 总被引:21,自引:0,他引:21
We have previously shown that first trimester human trophoblast cells share in vitro invasive properties with malignant cells. In this study we show that the in situ control of trophoblast invasion is provided by the uterine microenvironment. Trophoblast cells were labeled with 125I-deoxyuridine and examined for their ability to invade an epithelium-free human amniotic membrane in vitro under various conditions. The degree of invasion was determined as the percentage of the radioactivity retained within the membrane. Conditioned media from first trimester human decidual cells (DCM) suppressed invasion of trophoblast cells in the amnion invasion assay. This suppression was prevented by addition of neutralizing anti-TGF beta antibody or neutralizing antibody to tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMP-1) to the DCM, and mimicked by TGF beta 1. These antibodies also augmented invasion beyond control levels, suggesting that trophoblast cells may also produce these factors. A bioassay for TGF beta activity, measured by antiproliferative effect on the mink lung epithelial cell line Mv 1 Lu, revealed that decidual cells produced this factor only in the latent form, whereas the active form was produced by the trophoblast. A decrease in collagenase type IV activity in the conditioned media of trophoblast cultures was observed when TGF beta 1 was added to these cultures. Removal of endogenous TGF beta in trophoblast cultures by addition of anti-TGF beta antibody resulted in down-regulation of TIMP message as determined by Northern analysis. These results indicate that a) decidua-derived (and to a minor extent trophoblast-derived) TGF beta is the prime mediator in the control of invasion by first trimester trophoblast, the latent form of TGF beta likely being activated by trophoblast-derived proteinases; b) induction of TIMP by TGF beta in both trophoblast and decidua is the final pathway in this control. 相似文献

ABSTRACTTrophoblast migration and invasion through the decidua and maternal uterine spiral arteries are crucial events in placentation. During this process, invasive trophoblast replace vascular endothelial cells as the uterine arteries are remodeled to form more permissive vessels that facilitate adequate blood flow to the growing fetus. Placentation failures resulting from either extensive or shallow trophoblastic invasion can cause pregnancy complications such as preeclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction, placenta creta, gestational trophoblastic disease and even maternal or fetal death. Consequently, the use of experimental animal models such as rats and mice has led to great progress in recent years with regards to the identification of mechanisms and factors that control trophoblast migration kinetics. This review aims to perform a comparative analysis of placentation and the mechanisms and factors that coordinate intrauterine trophoblast migration in humans, rats and mice under physiological and pathological conditions. 相似文献

ABSTRACTDuring placental development, continuous invasion of trophoblasts into the maternal compartment depends on the support of proliferating extravillous trophoblasts (EVTs). Unlike tumor cells, EVTs escape from the cell cycle before invasion into the decidua and spiral arteries. This study focused on the regulation properties of glycosylated and non-glycosylated matricellular CCN1 and CCN3, primarily for proliferation control in the benign SGHPL-5 trophoblast cell line, which originates from the first-trimester placenta. Treating SGHPL-5 trophoblast cells with the glycosylated forms of recombinant CCN1 and CCN3 decreased cell proliferation by bringing about G0/G1 cell cycle arrest, which was accompanied by the upregulation of activated Notch-1 and its target gene p21. Interestingly, both CCN proteins increased senescence-associated β-galactosidase activity and the expression of the senescence marker p16. The migration capability of SGHPL-5 cells was mostly enhanced in response to CCN1 and CCN3, by the activation of FAK and Akt kinase but not by the activation of ERK1/2. In summary, both CCN proteins play a key role in regulating trophoblast cell differentiation by inducing senescence and enhancing migration properties. Reduced levels of CCN1 and CCN3, as found in early-onset preeclampsia, could contribute to a shift from invasive to proliferative EVTs and may explain their shallow invasion properties in this disease. 相似文献

The success of pregnancy depends on the ability of trophoblast cells to infiltrate the maternal decidua and breach uterine vessels. To ask whether the antigenic phenotype of maternal endothelial cells (EC) in the vascular zone and central decidua basalis may reflect a specialized programming of these vessels for interaction with the trophoblast, we did a survey of several mouse EC differentiation antigens, including MECA-32, MECA-99, and endoglin. Our results revealed striking differences in the phenotype of endothelial lining of vessels in the distinct compartments of the pregnant uterus during Day 9 of pregnancy and at midgestation. Vessels in the central decidua basalis and the vascular zone showed strong expression of MECA-99 but only weak expression of MECA-32, contrasting with the MECA-99(lo), MECA-32(hi) vessels in the capsularis. The vascular zone in addition stained brightly with anti-endoglin. Importantly, invading trophoblast as well as trophoblast cells lining maternal blood spaces were MECA-99(+), MECA-32(-), and endoglin(-), suggesting that the expression of MECA-99 may reflect a specialized co-programming of these trophoblast and EC for future interaction, but also that trophoblast cells may mimic selected antigenic characteristics of endothelium in association with their role in lining maternal blood spaces. In the term pregnant uterus the expression of all differentiation antigens decreased dramatically, suggesting that trophoblast cells as well as maternal EC lose their selected antigenic characteristics when the process of placentation is complete. 相似文献

Mouse trophoblast and decidua were examined by means of immunohistochemistry to define the localization of type I interferon. The decidua were stained for type I interferon at the time of implantation. The strong reaction was first observed in the primary decidual zone on day 5 and subsequently in the secondary decidual zone on day 6. After day 10, the decidua basalis and decidua capsularis showed a strong reaction. At the one-cell stage, embryos were weakly labelled, but a positive reaction was recognized in compacted morulae. Blastocysts on days 3 and 4 were positive in trophoblast and inner cell mass and a strong reaction was observed in the primitive endoderm on day 4. The visceral endoderm on day 5 and the trophoblast on day 6 were positive. After day 10, the trophoblast giant cells, labyrinth, visceral yolk sac and fetal blood cells gave a positive reaction. This study is the first demonstration of type I interferon localization in situ in mouse trophoblast and decidua during decidual formation. 相似文献
