The IL6/sIL-6R α trans-signaling increases PGE2 production in human granulosa cells
In conclusion, IL6 trans-signaling upregulates the expression of PTGS2 and increases the production of PGE2 via the JAK2/STAT3/SOCS3 signaling pathway in hGL cells. Our findings provide insights into the molecular mechanisms by which IL6 trans-signaling may potentially modulate the event of ovulation in human ovaries.PMID:34198336 | DOI:10.1093/biolre/ioab128

Downregulation of decidual SKP2 is associated with human recurrent miscarriage
CONCLUSIONS: Our study indicates a functional role of SKP2 in RM: downregulation of SKP2 in RM leads to impaired decidualization and downregulation of GLUT1 and consequently predisposes individuals to RM.PMID:34116705 | DOI:10.1186/s12958-021-00775-4

Thrombin impairs the angiogenic activity of extravillous trophoblast cells via monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1): A possible link with preeclampsia
In conclusion, we propose that thrombin-controlled MCP-1 secretion may play an essential role in normal placental development and successful pregnancy maintenance. Improper thrombin production and MCP-1 secretion during pregnancy might cause inadequate vascular formation and transformation of spiral arteries, which may contribute to pregnancy disorders, such as preeclampsia.PMID:34058707 | DOI:10.1016/j.repbio.2021.100516

Spastin interacts with CRMP5 to promote spindle organization in mouse oocytes by severing microtubules
Zygote. 2021 May 26:1-12. doi: 10.1017/S0967199421000344. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMicrotubule-severing protein (MTSP) is critical for the survival of both mitotic and postmitotic cells. However, the study of MTSP during meiosis of mammalian oocytes has not been reported. We found that spastin, a member of the MTSP family, was highly expressed in oocytes and aggregated in spindle microtubules. After knocking down spastin by specific siRNA, the spindle microtubule density of meiotic oocytes decreased significantly. When the oocytes were cultured in vitro, the oocytes lacking spastin showed an obvious maturation disorde...

Functional roles of the chromatin remodeler SMARCA5 in mouse and bovine preimplantation embryos
Biol Reprod. 2021 Apr 23:ioab081. doi: 10.1093/biolre/ioab081. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTUpon fertilization, extensive chromatin reprogramming occurs during preimplantation development. Growing evidence reveals species-dependent regulations of this process in mammals. ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling factor SMARCA5 (also known as SNF2H) is required for peri-implantation development in mice. However, the specific functional role of SMARCA5 in preimplantation development and if it is conserved among species remain unclear. Herein, comparative analysis of public RNA-seq datasets reveals that SMARCA5 is universally expre...
