Immunohistochemical study of immune cells in the bovine endometrium at different stages of the oestrous cycle

Research in Veterinary Science
S P Cobb, E D Watson

Abstract

Normal uteri were collected from 34 maiden heifers at slaughter and their stage of the oestrous cycle was determined from the ovarian structures. Cells expressing major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II were widely distributed in the epithelium and lamina propria of the endometrium and were the most abundant population studied. The expression of MHC class II increased in the endometrium during the follicular phase of the cycle. Macrophages occurred throughout the stratum compactum and stratum spongiosum and their density did not appear to vary with the stage of the cycle. CD4+ cells were found mainly in the stratum spongiosum, whereas CD8+ cells were present mainly within the luminal and glandular epithelia and in the stratum compactum. The density of the populations of CD4+ and CD8+ cells increased markedly during the mid-to-late luteal and follicular phases, respectively, of the cycle. In the endometrium lymphoid aggregates were observed only rarely and no B cells were identified in any of the heifers.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
