Placental insufficiency results in fetal loss, low birth weight, stillbirth, preweaning mortality and poor growth. Placental development begins at conceptus elongation, which is a primary factor controlling the size of the placenta. After elongation, the allantois develops outward from the embryo to establish the allantochorion, which defines the size of the functional placenta. During implantation, chorionic trophoblasts adhere to endometrial epithelial cells. Placental structures known as areolae develop at the openings of the endometrial glands and take up endometrial gland secreted products (histotrophe). Between day 30 and 35 of gestation, the adhered trophoblast-endometrial epithelial bilayer undergoes microscopic folding. Fetal and maternal capillaries develop adjacent to the bilayer and blood flows are arranged in a cross-countercurrent manner. Except for nutrients secreted by the glands, nutrient exchange takes place between these capillaries within these folds. By day 85, the folds deepen and become more complex, increasing surface area. The epithelial bilayer thins and capillaries indent the plane of each layer (but do not penetrate), reducing distance between capillaries. The folded bilayer is surrounded by endometrial stroma on the maternal side and placental stroma on the fetal side. The fetal-placental stroma is partially composed of glycosaminoglycans, the most abundant being hyaluronan and heparan sulfate. Changes in both hyaluronoglucosaminidase and heparanase during placental development suggest that these enzymes play a role in placental development. In addition to structural modifications, various nutrient specific transport mechanisms exist. These mechanisms are likely to be as important to transport of specific nutrients as placental size or structure.
胎盘功能不全导致胎儿丢失,低出生体重,死胎,断奶前死亡率和生长不良。胎盘发育开始于妊娠期延长,这是控制胎盘大小的主要因素。延长后,尿囊从胚胎向外发育,形成尿囊绒毛膜,这决定了功能性胎盘的大小。在植入过程中,绒毛膜滋养细胞粘附在子宫内膜上皮细胞上。被称为乳晕的胎盘结构在子宫内膜腺的开口处发育,并吸收子宫内膜腺分泌的产物(组织细胞)。在妊娠第30 ~ 35天,粘附的滋养细胞-子宫内膜上皮双分子层发生显微折叠。胎儿和母亲的毛细血管在双分子层附近发育,血流以交叉逆流的方式排列。除了由腺体分泌营养物质外,营养物质在这些褶皱内的毛细血管之间进行交换。到第85天,褶皱加深,变得更加复杂,表面积增加。上皮双分子层变薄,毛细血管缩进每层的平面(但不穿透),减少毛细血管之间的距离。折叠的双分子层被母体侧的子宫内膜间质和胎儿侧的胎盘间质所包围。胎儿-胎盘间质部分由糖胺聚糖组成,其中最丰富的是透明质酸和硫酸肝素。胎盘发育过程中透明质糖氨基酶和肝素酶的变化表明这些酶在胎盘发育中起作用。除了结构变化外,还存在多种营养物质特异性运输机制。这些机制可能与胎盘的大小或结构一样重要。

Antiluteolytic mechanisms and the establishment of pregnancy in the pig. 抗黄体溶解机制与猪妊娠的建立。

Extended exposure of progesterone and conceptus estrogen influences the vascular compartment of the uterus and expression of many factors, such as prostaglandins (PGs), growth factors, extracellular matrix and adhesion molecules, cytokines and transcription factors. One of the supportive mechanisms by which the conceptus inhibits luteolysis is by changing PG synthesis in favor of luteoprotective PGE2. Alteration in PG synthesis may result from increased PGE synthase (mPGES-1) expression in the trophoblast and endometrium on days 10-13 of pregnancy with simultaneous down-regulation of PGF synthase (PGFS) and prostaglandin 9-ketoreductase (CBR1). Conceptus and endometrial, rather than luteal, synthesis of PGE2, is involved in the process of maternal recognition of pregnancy. However, complex (direct and indirect) actions of estrogen on the CL, including decreased luteal VEGF soluble receptor on day 12 of pregnancy, are important for luteal maintenance. Moreover, conceptus signals affect another lipid signaling component - lysophosphatidic acid receptor (LPA3), as well as HoxA10 and Wnt in the endometrium, to create the appropriate uterine environment for establishment of pregnancy and implantation.
孕酮和孕雌激素的长期暴露影响子宫血管室和许多因子的表达,如前列腺素(pg)、生长因子、细胞外基质和粘附分子、细胞因子和转录因子。其中一个支持机制,通过概念抑制黄体溶解是通过改变PG合成有利于黄体保护PGE2。PG合成的改变可能是由于妊娠10-13天滋养细胞和子宫内膜中PGF合成酶(mPGES-1)表达增加,同时PGF合成酶(PGFS)和前列腺素9-酮还原酶(CBR1)下调。孕母和子宫内膜,而不是黄体,合成PGE2,参与母体对妊娠的识别过程。然而,雌激素对CL的复杂(直接和间接)作用,包括妊娠第12天黄体VEGF可溶性受体的降低,对黄体维持很重要。此外,妊娠信号影响另一种脂质信号成分溶血磷脂酸受体(LPA3)以及子宫内膜中的HoxA10和Wnt,为妊娠建立和着床创造适宜的子宫环境。

Proteomic analysis occupies an increasingly important place in gamete and embryo biology as an independent tool of discovery and as a means of follow-up to transcriptional profiling. Proteomics have been and will be increasingly helpful in many areas of reproductive biology, including applied science and technology development. Areas likely to be impacted most rapidly by proteomic knowledge include fertility evaluation in male farm animals, male infertility diagnostics in humans, assessment and optimization of oocyte and embryo culture protocols, selection of fittest oocytes for assisted fertilization and selection of most competent embryos for embryo transfer. Oocyte proteomics will help us understand the process of oogenesis and oocyte maturation, and to discover non-invasive markers of oocyte quality. Sperm proteomics correlate with normal sperm structure and function and can be applied to discover novel biomarkers of farm animal fertility and diagnostic markers of human male infertility. Putative receptors participating in fertilization, as well as proteins acquired onto sperm surface from epididymal fluid and seminal plasma, have been discovered by proteomic analysis. An added level of information is provided by advanced proteomic approaches, capable of identifying posttranslational modifications such as phosphorylation, glycosylation and ubiquitination which play important functions in gametogenesis, fertilization and embryo development. By no means exhaustive, the present paper reviews some of the most interesting proteomic studies of mammalian gametes and embryos published in the last decade.

Inseminations in pigs are characterized by the tremendous amount of spermatozoa needed for successful fertilisation. lf, in contrast, spermatozoa are deposited at the tip of the uterine horn a fraction of the usual porcine insemination dose suffices (Johnson 1991, Vazquez et al. 2005). It thus seems to be the uterine passage where the need for such high sperm numbers arises. In the past the provision of sufficient sperm numbers to reach acceptable fertility rates did not pose a problem due to the abundance of spermatozoa in one single boar ejaculate. However, modern biotechnological procedures, such as sex sorting of spermatozoa, require insemination of sperm portions containing no more then 50 x 106spermatozoa. To facilitate insemination with such small sperm doses also for conventional Al-techniques, more knowledge has to be gathered about fundamental sperm transport and selection mechanisms within the uterus. Previous studies on the pig uterus (Lovell & Getty 1968), the utero-tubal junction (Rodriguez-Martinez et al. 1990) and the oviduct (Wagner et al. 2002) suggested that spermatozoa are indeed subject to close interaction and even binding with the epithelial structures of the female genital tract. The present study aimed to further our understanding of such interactions specifically in the porcine uterus. For this purpose an ex vivo model was developed using uterine segments of 10 cm derived from 50 freshly slaughtered peri-ovulatory German Landrace gilts. In each segment 100 x 106 spermatozoa were incubated for 60 min at 38°C. The sperm cells originated from ejaculates provided by 4 boars of the same breed and of proven fertility. Previous to incubation spermatozoa were either washed and diluted in the semen extender Androhep or diluted with autologous seminal plasma without further washing. The spermatozoa were subsequently flushed out of the segments, counted and their viability parameters were established flow cytometrically using the stains PI and JC1 for membrane integrity and mitochondrial membrane potential respectively. The results indicated a retention of viable spermatozoa within the uterine cavity since only 55 ± 7% of the intact spermatozoa (PI-4C1+) were rediscovered in the flushing, while the damaged sperm population (PI+ /JC1-) was flushed out almost in its entity (93 ± 12%; p < 0.03). The effect was more emphasised in the sperm population, which had been washed and diluted in Androhep' (p < 0.05). The location of the uterine segments in relation to the cervix had no effect on the numbers of recovered sperm cells. Neither were differences observed between segments from the right and left uterine horn. In order to determine the physiological reasons behind the observed uterine sperm retention an in vivo experiment was performed looking for changes in uterine gene expression in response to insemination by measuring endometrial mRNA concentration. Because many processes concerning reproduction such as ovulation and implantation
猪受精的特点是成功受精需要大量精子。相反,如果精子沉积在子宫角的顶端,那么通常猪受精剂量的一小部分就足够了(Johnson 1991,Vazquez等人2005)。因此,似乎是子宫通道需要如此高的精子数量。在过去,提供足够的精子数量以达到可接受的生育率并不是一个问题,因为一次公猪精液中有大量精子。然而,现代生物技术程序,如精子的性别分类,需要对不超过50 x 106精子的精子部分进行受精。为了便于用这种小剂量的精子进行人工授精,也用于传统的人工授精技术,必须收集更多关于子宫内基本精子运输和选择机制的知识。先前对猪子宫(Lovell&Getty 1968)、子宫-输卵管连接处(Rodriguez-Martinez等人,1990)和输卵管(Wagner等人,2002)的研究表明,精子确实与女性生殖道的上皮结构密切相互作用,甚至结合。本研究旨在进一步了解这种相互作用,特别是在猪子宫中。为此,使用50只新鲜屠宰的围排卵期德国长白猪的10cm子宫段建立了离体模型。在每个节段中,将100 x 106个精子在38°C下孵育60分钟。精子细胞来源于同一品种的4头公猪提供的精液,并已证明具有生育能力。孵育前,精子要么在精液扩展器Androhep中洗涤和稀释,要么在不进一步洗涤的情况下用自体精浆稀释。随后将精子从节段中冲洗出来,进行计数,并分别使用PI和JC1染色对其膜完整性和线粒体膜电位进行流式细胞术测定其活力参数。结果表明,活精子保留在子宫腔内,因为只有55±7%的完整精子(PI-4C1+)在冲洗中被重新发现,而受损的精子群体(PI+/JC1-)几乎在其实体中被冲洗掉(93±12%;p<0.03)。这种影响在精子群体中更为突出,子宫节段相对于宫颈的位置对回收的精子细胞数量没有影响。右侧和左侧子宫角的节段之间也没有观察到差异。为了确定观察到的子宫精子滞留背后的生理原因,进行了一项体内实验,通过测量子宫内膜mRNA浓度来寻找受精后子宫基因表达的变化。因为许多与生殖有关的过程,如排卵和着床,都涉及免疫系统

Selection for boar fertility and semen quality--the way ahead. 选择野猪的生育能力和精液质量——未来的方向。

Critical needs for the swine industry in terms of boar fertility evaluations are validation of semen quality estimates with in vivo reproductive data; estimation of the relative fertility of boars; and elimination of sub-fertile ejaculates. Single sire matings are the best way to validate semen quality estimates with reproductive performance. Sampling about 20% of the population provides an accurate estimation of the variability among boars and should be sufficient for this purpose. In vitro tests that measure univariate characteristics of ejaculates including motility and morphology appear to be just as accurate as those that measure multivariate traits such as in vitro fertilization in terms of predicting boar fertility. Reasons for this observation may be related to how properties of sperm cells are influenced by the sow reproductive tract. Several seminal plasma proteins show strong correlations with boar fertility and hold potential for being developed into tests that can rank the relative fertility of boars. Almost 90% of the variation in boar fertility was explained when the proportion of motile and acrosome-reacted spermatozoa was combined with relative amounts of 28 kDa, pl 6.0 and 55 kDa, pl 4.5 seminal plasma proteins. Consequently, combining different complementary tests improves estimations of boar fertility. Motility estimates routinely performed in most A.I. centres are a reasonable technique for identification and elimination of sub-fertile ejaculates. However, the accuracy with which they currently are conducted within the swine industry needs improvement.
猪产业在评估公猪生育能力方面的关键需求是用体内生殖数据验证精液质量估计;估计公猪的相对生育能力;以及消除亚生殖能力的射精。单父系交配是验证精液质量估计与繁殖性能的最佳方法。对大约20%的种群进行采样可以准确估计野猪的变异性,并且应该足以达到这一目的。在预测公猪生育能力方面,测量射精单变量特征(包括运动性和形态)的体外测试似乎与测量多变量特征(如体外受精)的测试一样准确。这种观察结果的原因可能与精子细胞的特性如何受到母猪生殖道的影响有关。一些精浆蛋白与公猪的生育能力有很强的相关性,有可能被开发成可以对公猪的相对生育能力进行排名的测试。当活动精子和顶体反应精子的比例与相对量的28kDa,pl 6.0和55kDa、pl 4.5精浆蛋白相结合时,几乎90%的公猪受精率变化得到了解释。因此,将不同的互补测试结合起来可以提高对公猪生育能力的估计。在大多数人工智能中心常规进行的运动能力评估是识别和消除亚生殖能力射精的合理技术。然而,它们目前在养猪业中进行的准确性需要提高。

Temporal candidate gene expression patterns in the sow placenta during early gestation and the effect of maternal L-arginine supplementation. 妊娠早期母猪胎盘中的时间候选基因表达模式和母体补充L-精氨酸的影响。

The trend towards high ovulation rates in mature commercial sows has resulted in intra-uterine crowding in the immediate post-implantation period, with negative impacts on placental development and later fetal development (Town et al. 2004). Factors that improve placental angiogenesis could offset the effects of intra-uterine crowding by supporting placental development at critical times in gestation. Feeding of L-arginine has been shown to have beneficial effects on placental vascularization in gilts (Hazeleger et al. 2007) and on litter size born in gilts (Mateo et al. 2007) and sows (Ramaekers et a/. 2006). In the present study, we investigated the effects of L-arginine supplementation to commercial sows on global placental gene expression, and on temporal changes in the expression of a panel of eight candidate genes known to be involved in angiogenesis, in early pregnancy. Multiparous sows (n —48) were either non-supplemented Controls or were fed an L-arginine supplement (20g.d) from d 15 through 29 of gestation. A representative number of sows were euthanized on days 16 through 49 of gestation and embryonic and placental tissues were collected from two average-sized conceptuses from each uterine horn and placed in RNAlater for later analysis. To obtain temporal expression profiles for specific genes involved in placental angiogenesis, total placental RNA was extracted from all Control samples collected, reverse transcribed and real-time PCR used to determine the transcript abundance of: vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) -A; the two VEGF receptors, fms-related tyrosine kinase 1 (FLT1) and fetal liver kinase-1(flk-1/KDR); hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)1A; the Angiopoietins (ANGPT) -1 and -2 and their receptor, TEK tyrosine kinase; and finally Angiogenin (ANG) -1. The delta ACt values were calculated using 185 as an internal control, and data were analyzed using regression analysis (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC). To determine the cumulative effect of L-arginine treatment, real-time PCR for these same candidate genes was also performed on the d 30 placental samples from both Control and L-arginine sows. The relative ACt values for d 30 samples were again calculated using 185 as an internal control and data were analyzed using MIXED models (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC).

成熟商品母猪高排卵率的趋势导致着床后子宫内拥挤,对胎盘发育和后期胎儿发育产生负面影响(Town etal . 2004)。改善胎盘血管生成的因素可以通过在妊娠关键时期支持胎盘发育来抵消子宫内拥挤的影响。饲喂l -精氨酸已被证明对后备母猪的胎盘血管形成(Hazeleger等人,2007年)和后备母猪的产仔数(Mateo等人,2007年)和母猪(Ramaekers等人,2007年)有有益的影响。2006)。在本研究中,我们研究了商业母猪补充l -精氨酸对妊娠早期胎盘基因表达的影响,以及已知参与血管生成的8个候选基因表达的时间变化。经产母猪(n -48)在妊娠第15 ~ 29天不添加对照组或添加l -精氨酸(20g.d)。在妊娠第16至49天对有代表性的母猪实施安乐死,并从每个子宫角的两个平均大小的受胎中收集胚胎和胎盘组织,并放置在RNAlater中供以后分析。为了获得参与胎盘血管生成的特定基因的时间表达谱,从收集的所有对照样本中提取胎盘总RNA,进行反转录和实时PCR,以确定转录丰度:血管内皮生长因子(VEGF) -A;两种VEGF受体,fms相关酪氨酸激酶1(FLT1)和胎儿肝激酶1(flk-1/KDR);缺氧诱导因子(HIF)1A;血管生成素(ANGPT) -1和-2及其受体TEK酪氨酸激酶;最后是血管生成素-1。δ ACt值采用185作为内部控制来计算,数据采用回归分析进行分析(SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC)。为了确定l-精氨酸处理的累积效应,我们还对对照组和l-精氨酸母猪的30 d胎盘样本进行了这些候选基因的实时PCR检测。使用185作为内部控制再次计算30个样本的相对ACt值,并使用MIXED模型(SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC)分析数据。利用PigOligoArray载片和妊娠第30天收集的胎盘组织,分析l -精氨酸对胎盘基因表达的影响(每次处理n =4头有代表性的母猪)。提取总RNA,用mRNA迷你试剂盒(lnvitrogen)纯化,用aminoallyl mRNA扩增试剂盒(Ambion)扩增,用Cy3或Cy5标记,采用随机块染料互换设计。用Genepix软件和轴突扫描仪(Axon Scanner)捕获杂交的幻灯片图像,以优化每种染料的PMT。中位斑强度经过黄土和分位数归一化处理,并使用线性模型进行分析,均为极值(Smyth, 2004)。

Genetic selection for lifetime reproductive performance. 终生生殖性能的遗传选择。
Pub Date : 2020-10-12 DOI: 10.1530/biosciprocs.18.0033
A. Clutter
Genetic improvement of sow lifetime reproductive performance has value from both the economic perspectives of pork producers and the pork industry, but also from the perspective of ethical and animal welfare concerns by the general public. Genetic potential for piglets produced from individual litters is a primary determinant of lifetime prolificacy, but females must be able to sustain productivity without injury or death beyond the achievement of positive net present value. Evidence exists for between- and within-line genetic variation in sow lifetime performance, suggesting that improvements may be made by both line choices and genetic selection within lines. However, some of the same barriers to accurate within-line selection that apply to individual litter traits also present challenges to genetic selection for sow lifetime prolificacy: generally low heritabilites, sex-limited expression, expression after the age that animals are typically selected, and unfavorable genetic correlations with other traits in the profit function. In addition, there is an inherent conflict within the genetic nucleus herds where selections take place between the goal of shortened generation interval to accelerate genetic progress and the expression of sow lifetime traits. A proliferation in the industry of commercial multipliers with direct genetic ties and routine record flows to genetic nucleus herds provides a framework for accurate estimates of relevant genetic variances and covariances, and estimation of breeding values for sow lifetime traits that can be used in genetic selection.
无论是从猪肉生产者和猪肉行业的经济角度来看,还是从公众关注的伦理和动物福利的角度来看,母猪终身繁殖性能的遗传改良都具有价值。单个窝产的仔猪的遗传潜力是终生繁殖能力的主要决定因素,但雌性必须能够在实现正净现值之外保持不受伤或死亡的生产力。有证据表明,母猪终生生产性能存在株系间和株系内遗传变异,这表明,株系选择和株系内遗传选择可能都能改善母猪的生产性能。然而,适用于个体窝产性状的准确内系选择的一些相同障碍也对母猪终身繁殖的遗传选择提出了挑战:遗传率普遍较低,性别受限表达,在动物通常被选择的年龄之后表达,以及与利润函数中其他性状的不利遗传相关性。此外,在遗传核心群中,缩短世代间隔以加快遗传进程的目标与母猪终生性状的表达之间存在着内在的冲突。具有直接遗传联系和常规记录流的商业倍增器行业的激增为准确估计相关遗传方差和协方差以及估计可用于遗传选择的母猪终身性状的育种价值提供了框架。

Select nutrients and glucose transporters in pig uteri and conceptuses. 选择猪子宫和孕体中的营养物质和葡萄糖转运蛋白。
Pub Date : 2020-10-12 DOI: 10.1530/biosciprocs.18.0039

Glucose present in the intrauterine environment can be metabolized, activate cell signaling pathways or be converted to a "storage" form. Total recoverable glucose in uterine fluid of pregnant, but not cyclic pigs increases from Day 12 after onset of estrus in concert with conceptus elongation (Bazer et al. 1991). Transport of glucose into the ovine uterus and its uptake by conceptuses involves sodium-dependent and facilitative glucose transporters (Gao et al. 2009). Glucose can activate FRAP1/mTOR "nutrient sensing" pathway in which protein kinases activate p70S6 through phosphorylation to increase translation of 5'TOP mRNAs (terminal oligopyrimidine tract) (Wen et a/. 2005). Activated FRAP1 also regulates differentiation of trophectoderm (Tr) via Ras transformation by phosphorylating eukaryotic initiation factor 4E binding protein 1 (eIF4EBP1), a translational repressor of CAP-dependent translation (De Benedetti & Rhoads 1990). Select nutrients that stimulate FRAP1 activity in Tr include glucose, arginine (Arg), leucine (Leu) and glutamine (Gln) which may increase expression of IGF2, ODC and NOS mRNAs (Nielsen et al. 1995; Kimball et al. 1999; Martin & Sutherland 2001) which are required for conceptus development, differentiation and implantation through effects on production of NO (Kaliman et al. 1999) and polyamines (Van Winkle & Campione 1983). FRAP1 null mice die shortly after implantation due to impaired cell proliferation and hypertrophy in both the embryonic disc and Tr (Murakami et al. 2004). There are 14 isoforms of facilitative glucose transporters and 6 sodium-dependent glucose transporters. Of these, SLC2A I, SLCSA1 and SLCSA1 I mRNAs are most abundant in endometria and SLC2A3 is uniquely expressed by ovine conceptus Tr and endoderm (Gao et al. 2009). The objective of this study with sexually mature giks was to identify effects of pregnancy, long-term treatment of ovariectomized gilts with progesterone (P4) and estradiol-induced pseudopregnancy (PP) on changes in amounts of select nutrients (glucose, Arg, Leu and Gln) in uterine fluid and expression of glucose transporters in endometria and conceptuses. Experiment 1 determined effects of day of the estrous cycle and pregnancy on total recoverable glucose, Arg, Leu and Gln in uterine flushings from gilts on Days 5, 9, 12 and 15 of the estrous cycle (Cy) and Days 9, 10, 12, 13, 14 and 15 of pregnancy (Px). Total recoverable glucose, Arg, Leu and Gln increased (P< 0.05) with day in Cy and Px gilts, but only Arg increased more in Px than Cy ewes (day x pregnancy status; P<0.05) between Days 12 and 15. Experiment 2 determined recoverable amounts of selected nutrients in uterine flushings of gilts ovariectomized on Day 12 and treated daily with either corn oil (OVX-CO; n —4) or 200 mg progesterone (OVX-P4;n —5) to Day 39 and hysterectomized on Day 40. Values (mean +SEM; nmol) were greater for OVX-P4 than OVX-CO gilts for glucose (4,955+2,534 vs 726+ 133), Arg (207,112 + 160,979 vs 7,409+
宫内环境中存在的葡萄糖可以被代谢、激活细胞信号通路或转化为“储存”形式。妊娠期(但不是周期性)猪子宫液中的总可回收葡萄糖从发情期开始后第12天起随着妊娠期延长而增加(Bazer等人,1991)。葡萄糖进入绵羊子宫的运输及其通过受孕物的摄取涉及钠依赖性和促进性葡萄糖转运蛋白(Gao等人,2009)。葡萄糖可以激活FRAP1/mTOR“营养感应”途径,其中蛋白激酶通过磷酸化激活p70S6,以增加5’TOP-mRNA(末端寡嘧啶通道)的翻译(Wen等人,2005)。活化的FRAP1还通过磷酸化真核起始因子4E结合蛋白1(eIF4EBP1)(CAP依赖性翻译的翻译阻遏物),通过Ras转化调节滋养外胚层(Tr)的分化(De Benedetti&Rhoads 1990)。刺激Tr中FRAP1活性的选择营养素包括葡萄糖、精氨酸(Arg)、亮氨酸(Leu)和谷氨酰胺(Gln),它们可能增加IGF2、ODC和NOS mRNA的表达(Nielsen等人1995;Kimball等人1999;Martin和Sutherland 2001),这是受孕发育所需的,通过对NO(Kaliman等人,1999)和多胺(Van Winkle和Campione 1983)的产生的影响进行分化和植入。FRAP1缺失小鼠在植入后不久由于胚胎椎间盘和Tr中的细胞增殖受损和肥大而死亡(Murakami等人,2004)。促进性葡萄糖转运蛋白有14种异构体,钠依赖性葡萄糖转运因子有6种。其中,SLC2A I、SLCSA1和SLCSA1 I mRNA在子宫内膜中最为丰富,并且SLC2A3在绵羊孕体Tr和内胚层中唯一表达(Gao等人,2009)。本研究的目的是对性成熟giks进行研究,以确定妊娠、用孕酮(P4)和雌二醇诱导的假妊娠(PP)长期治疗去卵巢母猪对子宫液中选择营养素(葡萄糖、精氨酸、亮氨酸和谷氨酰胺)含量变化以及子宫内膜和孕体中葡萄糖转运蛋白表达的影响。实验1测定了发情周期的第5、9、12和15天以及妊娠的第9、10、12、13、14和15天(Px),发情周期的天数和妊娠对来自母猪的子宫冲洗中的总可回收葡萄糖、Arg、Leu和Gln的影响。Cy和Px母猪的总可恢复葡萄糖、Arg、Leu和Gln随着天数的增加而增加(P<0.05),但在第12天和第15天之间,只有Px的Arg比Cy母羊增加更多(第x天妊娠状态;P<0.05)。实验2测定了在第12天切除卵巢并每天用玉米油(OVX-CO;n-4)或200mg孕酮(OVX-P4;n-5)处理至第39天并在第40天切除子宫的母猪的子宫冲洗中所选营养素的可回收量。OVX-P4的葡萄糖(4955+2534 vs 726+133)、精氨酸(207112+160979 vs 7409+2877)和亮氨酸(248255+178599 vs 13983+5225)的值(平均值+SEM;nmol)高于OVX-CO镀金,但由于高变异性和小样本量,差异不显著。实验3测定了由5 mg/天苯甲酸雌二醇治疗诱发的假妊娠(PP)第90天的母猪子宫冲洗中选定营养素的量

Optimizing gilt management is a critical point to improve breeding herd efficiency. This review describes the effects of growth rate (GR) and body state at onset of puberty stimulation or at first mating on gilt puberty attainment, productivity and sow longevity. Traditional management practices should be re-evaluated with attention to different modern genotypes. It is difficult to discern the real effects of age, weight, backfat depth and estrus number at first insemination on longevity and reproductive performance, because these variables affect one another. GR interacts with age at boar exposure to influence age at puberty. Higher lifetime GR gilts (>700 g/d) attain puberty earlier and have a lower anoestrus rate. If gilts attain a target weight (135-150 kg), are adapted to herd health status and have at least one previously recorded estrus, they can be inseminated. Overweight at first breeding and throughout gestation should be avoided. There is no advantage in breeding gilts heavier than 150 kg; at first farrowing the target weight is 180-185 kg. Piglet production at first parity may be increased in gilts with a high GR but the number of stillborn piglets can also be increased. The culling rate over 3 parities for locomotion problems, which is one of the major risk factors for reduced herd retention rate, can be increased in overweight gilts at first breeding (>150-170 kg).
优化母猪管理是提高种群效率的关键。这篇综述描述了生长率(GR)和青春期刺激开始时或首次交配时的身体状态对母猪青春期发育程度、生产力和母猪寿命的影响。应重新评估传统的管理做法,注意不同的现代基因型。很难辨别年龄、体重、回腹深度和第一次受精时发情次数对寿命和繁殖性能的真正影响,因为这些变量相互影响。GR与公猪暴露时的年龄相互作用,影响青春期的年龄。寿命较高的GR母猪(>700 g/d)更早进入青春期,发情率较低。如果母猪达到目标体重(135-150公斤),适应牛群健康状况,并且至少有一次先前记录的发情期,就可以进行受精。在第一次繁殖和整个妊娠期应避免超重。饲养体重超过150公斤的母猪没有任何优势;第一次产仔时的目标体重为180-185公斤。GR高的母猪在第一次分娩时的仔猪产量可能会增加,但死胎仔猪的数量也会增加。由于运动问题而导致的3头母猪的扑杀率是牛群保留率降低的主要风险因素之一,在首次繁殖时(>150-170公斤)超重的母猪可以提高扑杀率。

Nutritional and lactational effects on follicular development in the pig. 营养和泌乳对猪卵泡发育的影响。
Pub Date : 2020-10-12 DOI: 10.1530/biosciprocs.18.0014
H. Quesnel
In sows, follicular development is inhibited during lactation, and weaning the piglets allows recruitment and selection of follicles that will undergo preovulatory maturation and ovulate. Lactation inhibits GnRH secretion, and in turn LH secretion, through neuroendocrine stimuli induced by suckling. Pituitary response to GnRH and the sensitivity of the hypothalamo-pituitary unit to oestradiol positive feedback are also reduced. The impact of lactation on the reproductive axis is further complicated by the physiological and metabolic adaptations that are developed for milk production and that depend on nutrient intake, nutrient needs and body reserves. A strongly catabolic state during lactation amplifies the inhibition of LH secretion, thereby inducing a delay of oestrus and ovulation after weaning. Nevertheless, post-weaning ovulation is less delayed nowadays than in the 1970's or 80's. Nutritional deficiency has also deleterious effects on embryo survival, which are likely related to alterations in follicular growth and maturation. The physiological mechanisms by which information on the metabolic changes is transmitted to the hypothalamus-pituitary-ovary axis are not fully understood in the sow. Glucose, insulin and leptin are the most likely signals informing the hypothalamus of the metabolic state, yet their roles have not been definitely established. At the ovarian level, folliculogenesis is likely to be altered by the reduction in insulin and IGF-I concentrations induced by nutritional deficiency. More knowledge is needed at the intrafollicular level to better understand nutritional effects on follicular development, and also on occyte quality and embryo development.
在母猪中,卵泡发育在哺乳期间受到抑制,断奶仔猪允许招募和选择卵泡,这些卵泡将经历排卵前成熟和排卵。哺乳期通过哺乳诱导的神经内分泌刺激抑制GnRH分泌,进而抑制LH分泌。垂体对GnRH的反应和下丘脑-垂体单元对雌二醇正反馈的敏感性也降低。哺乳对生殖轴的影响因产奶而产生的生理和代谢适应而进一步复杂化,这些适应取决于营养摄入、营养需求和身体储备。哺乳期强烈的分解代谢状态会增强对黄体生成素分泌的抑制,从而导致断奶后的发情和排卵延迟。尽管如此,现在断奶后的排卵比上世纪七八十年代延迟的要少。营养缺乏对胚胎存活也有有害影响,这可能与卵泡生长和成熟的改变有关。母猪代谢变化信息传递到下丘脑-垂体-卵巢轴的生理机制尚不完全清楚。葡萄糖、胰岛素和瘦素是向下丘脑传达代谢状态的最有可能的信号,但它们的作用尚未明确确定。在卵巢水平,营养缺乏引起的胰岛素和igf - 1浓度降低可能改变卵泡发生。为了更好地了解营养对卵泡发育的影响,以及对卵母细胞质量和胚胎发育的影响,需要在卵泡内水平上有更多的了解。

Quesnel","doi":"10.1530/biosciprocs.18.0014","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1530/biosciprocs.18.0014","url":null,"abstract":"In sows, follicular development is inhibited during lactation, and weaning the piglets allows recruitment and selection of follicles that will undergo preovulatory maturation and ovulate. Lactation inhibits GnRH secretion, and in turn LH secretion, through neuroendocrine stimuli induced by suckling. Pituitary response to GnRH and the sensitivity of the hypothalamo-pituitary unit to oestradiol positive feedback are also reduced. The impact of lactation on the reproductive axis is further complicated by the physiological and metabolic adaptations that are developed for milk production and that depend on nutrient intake, nutrient needs and body reserves. A strongly catabolic state during lactation amplifies the inhibition of LH secretion, thereby inducing a delay of oestrus and ovulation after weaning. Nevertheless, post-weaning ovulation is less delayed nowadays than in the 1970's or 80's. Nutritional deficiency has also deleterious effects on embryo survival, which are likely related to alterations in follicular growth and maturation. The physiological mechanisms by which information on the metabolic changes is transmitted to the hypothalamus-pituitary-ovary axis are not fully understood in the sow. Glucose, insulin and leptin are the most likely signals informing the hypothalamus of the metabolic state, yet their roles have not been definitely established. At the ovarian level, folliculogenesis is likely to be altered by the reduction in insulin and IGF-I concentrations induced by nutritional deficiency. More knowledge is needed at the intrafollicular level to better understand nutritional effects on follicular development, and also on occyte quality and embryo development.","PeriodicalId":87420,"journal":{"name":"Society of Reproduction and Fertility supplement","volume":"66 1","pages":"121-34"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47814046","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
