1. Nishino D, Kotake A, Yun CS, Rahman AMI, El-Sharawy M, Yamanaka KI, Khandoker MAMY, Yamauchi N., Gene expression of bovine endometrial epithelial cells cultured in matrigel.
, Cell Tissue Res. 2021 Apr 10. doi: 10.1007/s00441-021-03418-7. Online ahead of print., 2021.04, Glandular epithelial cells (GE) in the endometrium are thought to support the elongation and survival of ruminant embryos by secreting histotrophs. In the present study, the gene expression of bovine endometrial epithelial cells cultured in matrigel was analyzed and examined whether it could be an in vitro model of GE. Bovine endometrial epithelial cells (BEE) and stromal cells (BES) were isolated from the slaughterhouse uteri and cultured in DMEM/F12 + 10% FBS. BEE showed the gland-like structure morphological changes when cultured in 15% matrigel but could not be identified in higher concentrations of the matrigel (30% or 60%). The expression of typical genes expressed in GE, SERPINA14 and GRP, was substantially high in matrigel-cultured BEE than in monolayer (P

Yun CS, Masaka H, Nishino D, Horaku S, Rahman AMI, Khandoker MAMY, Yamauchi N., Analysis of novel embryonic factors of cattle and effects on endometrial cells in vitro., Anim Reprod Sci. 2021 Mar;226:106696. doi: 10.1016/j.anireprosci.2021.106696., 226, 2021.03, Interferon tau (IFNT) is thought to have essential functions in maternal recognition and establishment of pregnancy in ruminants. There, however, is a lack of research on embryonic factors that affect pregnancy other than IFNT. The present study was conducted to determine what are other embryo-derived factors involved in pregnancy recognition and to identify effects on endometrial cells using an in vitro culture system. With use of LC-MS/MS procedures to evaluate the supernatant of elongating embryos of cattle in culture, there was detection of 78 secretary proteins including five cytokines and two growth factors. Then there was analysis for up-regulated genes using ingenuity pathway procedure, IFNT and MIF were identified as upstream regulators of 37 and five genes, respectively. The mRNA transcript of MIF receptors was identified in endometrial cells, however, not in embryos. Among genes induced by MIF, CCL2, IL7 and IL23A transcripts were identified in endometrial cells. When endometrial cells were treated with interferon alpha (IFNA) and MIF, the CCL2 transcript was in a larger abundance of endometrial epithelial and polymorphonuclear neutrophil cells, and there was a larger abundance of there mRNA transcripts as a result of MIF treatment of peripheral blood mononuclear cells. In conclusion, MIF secreted by elongating embryos of cattle synergistically regulates relative abundances of specific mRNA transcripts of endometrial cells when there is treatment with IFNA, indicating further there are several factors other than IFNT that have effects on gene expression in the endometrium during early stages of gestation in cattle..

Rahman ANMI, Yamashita S, Fujihara T, Islam MR, Fujihara T, Yamaguchi H, Kawahara M, Takahashi M, Takahashi H, Gotoh T, Yamauchi N., Type-I interferon regulates matrix metalloproteinases clearance of the bovine endometrial spheroid, Anim Sci J. Jan-Dec 2020;91(1):e13350. doi: 10.1111/asj.13350., 89, 1609-1621, 2020.01, This study investigated the effect of type-I interferon (IFN) on the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) of the bovine endometrial stromal cells (BES) and epithelial cells (BEE). The cells were separated and purified from the caruncles and cultured in DMEM/F-12 containing 10% fetal bovine serum. Spheroids were generated by using ascorbate. Zymograms of the supernatant showed that BEE
predominantly expressed MMP-9, whereas MMP-2 was expressed in BES and homospheroids. While MMPs expression was not detected in hetero-spheroids. Real-time quantitative PCR revealed that type-I IFN and P4 suppressed the gene expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in hetero-spheroids, respectively. On the other hand, gelatin zymography analysis of the supernatant showed that type-I IFN strongly promote the clearance of MMPs. While zymograms of the MMPs stocked in the hetero-spheroids were significantly reduced by type-I IFN. Phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride and leupeptin (both are serine proteinase inhibitors) significantly repressed the clearance of MMP-2 and MMP-9 induced by type-I IFN. Moreover, collagen fibers in heterospheroids significantly decreased after the treatment with type-I IFN. In conclusion, it was suggested that type-I IFN participate in the tissue remodeling by regulation the clearance of MMPs..

Musavi SAA, Yamashita S, Fujihara T, Masaka H, Islam MR, Kim S, Gotoh T, Kawahara M, Tashiro K, Yamauchi N., Analysis of differentially expressed genes and the promoters in bovine endometrium throughout estrus cycle and early pregnancy., Anim Sci J. 2018 Nov;89(11):1609-1621. doi: 10.1111/asj.13091. Epub 2018 Sep 5., 2018 Nov;89(11):1609-1621. doi: 10.1111/asj.13091. Epub 2018 Sep 5., 89, 1609-1621, 2018.11, Endometrial gene expression is primarily regulated by the ovarian steroids and pregnancy recognition factors. The present study was aimed to characterize differential expression genes (DEGs) in bovine endometrium together with the analysis of their promoter region. Bovine uteri at follicular stage (FS), luteal stage (LS) and implantation stage (IS) at day18 of pregnancy were collected. Total RNA extracted and prepared cDNA were then subjected to high-throughput sequencing. For promoter analysis, 1kb upstream promoter region of each DEG was analyzed. The number of highly expressed DEGs were 496 and 597 at FS and LS, respectively. When compared the gene expression of IS with LS, 383 and 346 DEGs showed higher and lower expression at IS, respectively. It was also observed that 20-30 transcription factors (TFs) were included in each DEGs. Additionally, promoter analyses estimated 150-160 TFs for each stage. DLX4 and IRF4 at FS, and IRF5, IRF9, STAT1 and STAT2 at IS were in common to DEGs and estimated TFs, respectively. The present study highlighted potential molecular mechanisms controlling endometrial function during estrus cycle and implantation stage, which will further guide to better understand the endometrial functions in future studies..
5. Tae Young KIL, Han Su RYU and Nobuhiko YAMAUCHI , The Effect of Integrated Play Therapy on Self-Expression and Depression in Elderly Women Living Alone in Rural Areas, J Faculty Agriculture, Kyushu University., 63, 2, 265-270, 2018.10, The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of an integrated play therapy program on self-expression, depression, and psychosocial well-being among elderly women who live alone in rural areas. The study was conducted on a group of elderly women, aged 65 and over, who were living alone. Researchers selected one village in the township of A-country, Chungcheongnam-do, South Korea. Data were collected from 24 experimental groups and 24 non-participating control groups. The program was applied to the experimental group for a total of eight weeks (one two-hour session per week). An analysis compared the results of the non-identical control group before and after the program; the effect of the program was measured by assessing participants using a follow-up test, before, immediately after, and ten weeks after the program. The results showed that levels of self-expression increased significantly in the experimental group, from 2.96 before the program, to 3.45 immediately after the program, and 4.13 ten weeks later. Rates of depression decreased significantly in the follow-up tests, measuring 0.85, 0.67, and 0.21 before, after, and ten weeks later. These results show that the play therapy program was effective and had a continuous effect on elderly participants. This study confirms that integrated play therapy is an effective program for developing self-expression and reducing depression among elderly women who live alone in rural areas. Based on these results, this article discusses the impact of the program on self-expression and depression among elderly women who live alone in rural areas; it proposes a policy as a basis for operating and using integrated play therapy to help vulnerable elderly people..

Ibrahim EL-SHAMAA, Mostafa IBRAHIM, Mohamed EL-SHARAWY, Raed MAHMOUD, Kaiyu KUBOTA, Nobuhiku YAMAUCHI and El-Shenawy El-SIEFY, Effect of Various Coconut (Cocos nucifera) Milk Concentrations Instead of Egg Yolk on Freezability and Fertility of Frozen Holstein Bull Spermatozoa., J Faculty Agriculture, Kyushu University., 63, 2, 265-270, 2018.10, The study was carried out to investigate if the substitution of egg yolk (EY) with various coconut (Cocos nucifera) milk concentrations in extenders can improve the freezability and fertility of frozen Holstein bull spermatozoa. Semen from five Holstein bulls was collected twice weekly and ejaculates with 75% progressive motility and more 85% normal sperm morphology prior to cryopreservation were pooled in order to have sufficient semen for a replicate and to eliminate the bull effect. Five extenders were used. Tris 20% egg yolk extender with 7% glycerol as a control, and substitution of whole egg yolk with 5, 10, 15, and 20% coconut milk. Semen was diluted to 80 million sperm/ml packaged into 0.25ml straws, cooled held at 5ºC for 4 h, and then frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at –196ºC until for artificial insemination. Sperm progressive motility, live sperm, sperm abnormality, intact sperm acrosome and plasma membrane integrity were evaluated post dilution, post–equilibration and post frozen–thawed processes. The results revealed that 5% coconut milk extender was more effective in preservation of progressive motility, live sperm, sperm abnormality, intact sperm acrosome and plasma membrane integrity of Holstein spermatozoa than whole egg yolk extender and other coconut milk extenders. Fertility rates were higher in 5% and 10% coconut milk extenders compared with whole egg yolk extender (65% and 55% vs 45%, respectively) and other 15% and 20% coconut milk extenders (45% and 40%, respectively). It was concluded that 5% coconut milk extender improved the freezability and fertility of Holstein bull spermatozoa..
