چکیده

OBJECTIVE To determine the effects of 2 conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers (cis-9, trans-11 and trans-10, cis-12) on synthesis of prostaglandin (PG) E(2) and F(2α) and expression of prostaglandin H synthase-2 (PGHS-2) of adult and fetal bovine endometrial epithelial cells in vitro. SAMPLE Primary cultures of endometrial epithelial cells obtained from 4 adult cows and 4 fetal bovine carcasses. PROCEDURES Cells were exposed to 0, 50, 100, or 200μM cis-9, trans-11 or trans-10, cis-12 CLA isomers for 24 hours. Culture media collected before and after 6 hours of stimulation of cells with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate were assayed to detect PGE(2) and PGF(2α) via ELISA. After stimulation, cells were collected for western blot analysis to quantify PGHS-2. RESULTS Concentrations of PGF(2α) and PGE(2) were significantly lower in culture media of adult and fetal endometrial epithelial cells exposed to any concentration of either CLA than they were in media of cells not exposed to CLAs. The trans-10, cis-12 CLA isomer seemed to decrease PG production more markedly than did the cis-9, trans-11 CLA isomer. Most concentrations of both CLAs significantly reduced culture media PGE(2):PGF(2α) concentration ratios of cells. Exposure of cells to CLAs did not affect expression of PGHS-2 protein. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Results of this study indicated CLAs significantly decreased PGF(2α) and PGE(2) concentrations and PGE(2):PGF(2α) concentration ratios for cultures of adult and fetal endometrial epithelial cells with no apparent effect on PGHS-2 expression. Similar effects in cows could have effects on maternal recognition of pregnancy and immune function.

P-113: Survey of In Vitro Effect of Resveratrol on Nitric Oxide Secretion of Human Endometrial Epithelial Cells

Background: Resveratrol is a natural polyphe- nolic compound, synthesized by plants as a phytoalexin and protects against ultraviolet radiation and fungal infection. Nitric oxide is formed from L-arginine through nitric oxide synthases (NOS), a group of enzymes that structurally resemble cytochrome P-450 reductase. In females, circulating NO is increased during follicle development and decrease...

Effects of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids on Reproductive Processes in Dairy Cattle

Growing evidence indicates that the design and delivery of supplemental unsaturated fatty acids to the lower gut for absorption (specifically linoleic acid, linolenic acid, EPA and DHA) may target reproductive tissues to alter reproductive function and fertility. Improvement in reproductive performance involves stimulation in ovarian activity (follicle development) in the postpartum period, and...

Effect of Matrigel on Function and Morphology of Human Endometrial Epithelial Cell in vitro

The importance of extra cellular matrix (ECM) in development and function of different cells has been reported but little is known about its role in human endometrial epithelial cells. The aim of the present study was to examine effects of artificial ECM (Matrigel) and progesterone on the function and morphology of human endometrial epithelial cells in vitro. Methods: Endometrial samples were ...

Conjugated linoleic acids modulate UVR-induced IL-8 and PGE2 in human skin cells: potential of CLA isomers in nutritional photoprotection.

Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA), derivatives of linoleic acid found in food products, inhibit chemically induced skin cancers in mice. However, their potential photoprotective properties remain unexplored. We examined whether CLA may modulate ultraviolet radiation (UVR)-induced secretion of interleukin (IL)-8 and prostaglandin E2 (PGE(2)), mediators implicated in UVR-induced inflammation and ca...
