Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein in follicular fluid is associated with the follicular inflammatory status and granulosa cell steroidogenesis in dairy cows
Metabolic stress and subsequent hepatic dysfunction in high-producing dairy cows are associated with inflammatory diseases and declining fertility. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-binding protein (LBP) is produced by hepatocytes and controls the immune response, suggesting that it is involved in the pathophysiology of inflammation-related attenuation of reproductive functions during metabolic stress. This study investigated the effect of LBP on the inflammatory status, oocyte quality, and steroidogenesis in the follicular microenvironment of dairy cows. Using bovine ovaries obtained from a slaughterhouse, follicular fluid and granulosa cells were collected from large follicles to evaluate the follicular status of metabolism, inflammation, and steroidogenesis. Cumulus-oocyte complexes were aspirated from small follicles and subjected to in vitro embryo production. The results showed that follicular fluid LBP concentrations were significantly higher in cows with fatty livers and hepatitis than in those with healthy livers. Follicular fluid LBP and LPS concentrations were negatively correlated, whereas LPS concentration showed a positive correlation with the concentrations of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) and β-hydroxybutyric acid in follicular fluid. The blastulation rate of oocytes after in vitro fertilization was impaired in cows in which coexisting large follicles had high NEFA levels. Follicular fluid NEFA concentration was negatively correlated with granulosa cell expression of the estradiol (E2) synthesis-related gene (CYP19A1). Follicular fluid LBP concentration was positively correlated with follicular fluid E2 concentration and granulosa cell CYP19A1 expression. In conclusion, follicular fluid LBP may be associated with favorable conditions in the follicular microenvironment, including low LPS levels and high E2 production by granulosa cells.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
