Supplementation of dairy cows with bovine somatotropin or omega-3 rich fish oil affects the endometrial expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors

<b>Aim:</b> The study objectives were to determine whether dietary supplementation with long chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in the form of enriched fish oil (FO) for 90 days or treatment with bovine somatotropin (bST) at the time of ovulation and 11 days post-ovulation influen...

description <b>Aim:</b> The study objectives were to determine whether dietary supplementation with long chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in the form of enriched fish oil (FO) for 90 days or treatment with bovine somatotropin (bST) at the time of ovulation and 11 days post-ovulation influenced PPAR expression and activation in bovine endometrium in Holstein cows.<p> <b>Materials and Methods:</b> Non-lactating cows were assigned to one of four treatments: cyclic, cyclic-bST, pregnant or pregnant-bST. Lactating cows were assigned to one of six treatments: cyclic, cyclic-bST, pregnant, pregnant-bST, cyclic-FO or cyclic-FO-bST.<p> <b>Results:</b> Northern and Western blot analyses indicated that PPAR&#945; and PPAR&#948;, but not PPAR&#947;, are expressed in endometrium from all cows at day 17 post-ovulation. Treatment with bST is associated with increased PPAR&#948; mRNA abundance in pregnant but not cyclic cows, suggesting that the effect may be mediated by the embryo. Increased abundances of PPAR&#945; mRNA are observed in response to bST during pregnancy in lactating cows but not in non-lactating cows, highlighting the importance of lactation status in determining bST response. Fish oil supplementation is associated with reduced PPAR&#948; mRNA abundance, but did not affect steady-state PPAR&#945; mRNA abundance. PPAR&#948; protein is expressed in the luminal epithelium, glandular epithelium, subepithelial stroma and to a lesser extent in the adluminal stroma. Anti-PPAR&#948; reactivity is reduced in response to bST and fish oil treatments in pregnant cows.<p> <b>Conclusion:</b> bST and fish oil treatments affect endometrial PPAR&#945; and PPAR&#948; expression in lactating dairy cows.
