[Abstract]:Activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) is located in the endoplasmic reticulum type II transmembrane protein belonging to the CREB family transcription factor.ATF6 as a major baroreceptor endoplasmic reticulum stress signaling pathway in (Stress Sensor) protein, endoplasmic reticulum stress, it can in many tissues and endoplasmic reticulum stress related the response element regulated gene co synthesis and degradation of.ATF6 cell protein is widely expressed in the body, organs and cells, such as placenta, uterine decidual tissue, liver, heart, fetal fibroblast cells and RAW264.7 macrophages. The existing research shows that endoplasmic reticulum stress and its signal transduction pathway related genes in early embryos implantation of mammalian, decidual endometrial stromal cells and ovarian function to maintain and play a series of reproductive processes play important regulation for Use. Therefore, further reveal the role of ATF6 and its mediated endoplasmic reticulum stress signaling pathway in the reproductive process of female mammals, for a comprehensive understanding of the molecular mechanism of mammalian reproductive regulation, has important value to explore the new target for the regulation of animal breeding. In this study, a mouse model of immunohistochemical staining, qRT-PCR, Western blotting, shRNA interference, flow cytometry and TUNEL technology and method of network function and role stress related gene ATF6 in uterine and ovarian granulosa cell apoptosis of mouse embryo implantation in the period studied, the main results are as follows: 1. immunohistochemical staining, qRT-PCR and Western blotting, of ATF6 in the different stages of the estrous cycle of female mice ovary, expression pattern and characteristics of the fallopian tube and uterus. The results showed that mRNA ATF6 and protein expression of water In different stages of estrous cycle of the ovary, the main expression showed a certain pattern of.ATF6 protein in the oviduct and uterus in ovarian oocytes, granulosa cells and luteal cells, epithelial cells and uterine oviduct luminal epithelium and glandular epithelial cells. In ovary, oviduct and uterus in the mRNA and protein expression levels of ATF6 at a relatively low level in proestrus and estrus, gradually increased from metestrous to diestrus, suggesting that ATF6 may be involved in the reproductive process of female mice, the expression of ATF6 may be affected by P4 and E2 in the ovary of.2. ATF6 was studied in normal pregnancy. In early pseudopregnancy, delayed implantation and implantation of artificial induced activation, uterine decidualization, expression and localization of the steroid hormone induction and antagonist treatment in the womb. The results showed that the expression of mRNA protein and ATF6 of water Ping Zaizheng Often pregnancy fifth d into the "window period" of the uterus increased significantly, ATF6 protein showed high expression in the luminal epithelium and stromal cells in the vicinity of the implantation site; the expression of ATF6 in fifth D in the amount of pseudopregnant uterus decreased significantly; mRNA and protein ATF6 activation model in the womb in implantation was significantly higher than that of control group ATF6 protein, activation model of uterine stromal cells implanted at the implantation site near the cavity, showed high expression in epithelial cells, suggesting that ATF6 may be involved in the adhesion and implantation process of embryos, embryos may influence the expression level of mRNA and protein expression of.ATF6 ATF6 in the 6~8 of D in normal pregnancy in the uterus increased gradually in the primary decidual zone pregnancy sixth D (PDZ) was detected in the ATF6 protein, the secondary decidual zone with high expression of ATF6 in pregnancy 7~8 D (SDZ); and in the artificial decidualization of uterine model, the expression of ATF6 significantly That is higher than the control group, the formation process of ATF6 may be involved in early pregnancy in uterine stromal cell decidualization and decidual zone. In steroid hormone antagonists and the corresponding processing model in uterine luminal epithelial and glandular epithelial cells were detected in the expression of ATF6 protein. And the control group compared to untreated uterus, occurrence a significant change in the expression level of mRNA ATF6 and protein expression, suggesting that ATF6 in the uterus was regulated by shRNA interference.3. by lentiviral vector mediated P4 and E2, successfully constructed shRNA interference recombinant lentiviral vector targeting mouse ATF6 gene, and the interference efficiency were tested and verified. Results showed that the titers of ATF6 recombinant lentivirus packaging obtained is about 7 * 107tu/ml, transfection efficiency in RAW264.7 cells reached more than 90%. At the same time, selected can effectively restrain a The expression of TF6 gene lentivirus interference vector in mouse RAW264.7 macrophages in the interference efficiency was about 80%, the expression can be studied by ATF6 in mature mouse follicles in various stages of development and in vitro primary cultured granulosa cells have carried out the experimental study on the biological functions of ATF6 gene. The results meet the requirements of.4. ATF6 wide the expression of oocyte and granulosa cells in mature mouse follicles at different growth stages, the expression of ATF6 in granulosa cells regulated by fsh/lh protein levels. Application of targeting mouse ATF6 gene lentivirus infected mouse granulosa cells cultured in vitro, found the expression of shatf6 interference lentivirus can effectively inhibit ATF6 gene in granulosa cells, the interference efficiency was about 80%. The application of qRT-PCR, westernblotting, flow cytometry and ELISA method, the inhibition of ATF6 gene The expression of granulosa cells were detected after the discovery, inhibit the expression of ATF6 gene can downregulate p53, Caspase-3, chop expression and up regulation of Bcl-2 and GRP78 and apoptosis regulation of key genes and inhibit the apoptosis of granulosa cells; can inhibit cyclina1, normal expression of cell cycle disturbance cyclinB1 granule cells and cyclind2 cell cycle regulation of key genes the distribution; and can through the upregulation of CYP11A1, star, CYP19A1 and CYP1B1 down-regulation of steroid hormone secretion to regulate the expression of key genes, and promotes progesterone and estrogen secretion in granulosa cells; also can PTGS2 on the growth and development of functional gene Has2 associated with follicular, significantly affect.5. and westernblotting studied by CCK-8 method cytotoxic effects of zearalenone on mouse granulosa cells the expression of ptgfr and IGFBP4 in granulosa cells, zearalenone can be found Could significantly inhibit murine granulosa cell viability, characterized by a concentration and time dependent, and zearalenone can affect the expression of ATF6 in granulosa cells. The application of qRT-PCR, westernblotting, flow cytometry and ELISA method, studied the ATF6 induced apoptosis of mouse granulosa cells in red mycophenolate ketene, found that inhibiting the expression of ATF6 can downregulate p53, Caspase-3, Bax and Bcl-2 up-regulated expression of key genes and inhibiting apoptosis of granulosa cell apoptosis induced by zearalenone; can regulate the expression of up regulation of HSD3B2 and CYP19A1 and other steroid hormone biosynthesis key genes P4 and E2 in granulosa cells and relieve gibberellenic ketone induced the secretion dysfunction; but the inhibition of granule cell cycle arrest ATF6 on zearalenone caused no significant effect. The process of induced apoptosis of mouse granulosa cells in zearalenone in , zearalenone can activate the endoplasmic reticulum stress, promote the expression of ATF6, GRP78 and chop of endoplasmic reticulum stress related proteins in granulosa cells; inhibition of ATF6 through upregulation of GRP78 and downregulation of CHOP expression and decreased the apoptosis rate; and zearalenone can also activate autophagy, may inhibit ATF6 by enhancing the autophagy and protective effects on cells. These results indicate that ATF6 in female mouse embryo implantation, played an important role in uterine decidualization and ovarian granulosa cell apoptosis in the main reproductive process, provides the research foundation and theoretical basis for further study of biological function of ATF6 and ER net stress in mammalian reproduction.
