Progesterone modulation of osteopontin expression in early pregnancy
The progesterone responsiveness is determined mainly by the extent of expression of the specific progesterone receptors termed PR-A and PR-B that are members of the nuclear receptor superfamily of transcription factors. Genetically modified mice missing both PR-A and PR-B, and the expression of PR-A protein are infertile as a result of pleiotropic reproductive abnormalities including implantation and decidualisation. Implantation and decidualisation involve pregnancy specific remodeling of extracellular matrix at the fetal-maternal interface. Gene expression profiling of pre-receptive versus receptive endometria obtained from human and mouse uterine tissue has identified osteopontin (secreted phosphoprotein 1) as the most differentially regulated ECM-adhesion molecule in the human uterus as it becomes receptive to implantation. Osteopontin is a chemokine-like ECM associated glycosylated phosphoprotein which binds to integrin heterodimers via its RGD sequence to promote cell adhesion and migration. The objective of this study is to analyze the role of progesterone signaling in the regulation of osteopontin expression in the stromal endometrium and decidual cells. We found that expression of endometrial osteopontin is estrogen and progesterone regulated.
