Abstract
A common goal of the dairy industry is to shorten the calving interval to reap several benefits associated with improved fertility. Early pregnancy detection is crucial to shorten this interval, allowing for prompt re-insemination of cows that failed to conceive after the first service. Currently, the industry lacks a method to accurately predict pregnancy within the first 3 wk. The polypeptide cytokine IFN-tau (IFNT) is the primary signal for maternal recognition of pregnancy in ruminants. As IFNT is released from the early conceptus, it initiates a cascade of effects, including upregulation of IFN-stimulated genes (ISG). Expression of ISG can be detected in the peripheral blood. The present study aimed to characterize peripheral transcriptomic changes, including the ISG, as early as d 7 after embryo transfer. A total of 170 Holstein heifers received in vitro-produced embryos. Whole blood was collected from these heifers within 24 h of the embryo transfer (d 0), d 7, and d 14 after embryo transfer. The heifers were divided into 2 groups, pregnant and nonpregnant, based on pregnancy diagnosis on d 28 via ultrasound. Total RNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of pregnant and nonpregnant heifers, pooled and sequenced. Expression analysis on d 7 heifers resulted in 13 significantly differentially expressed genes mostly related to innate immunity. Differential expression analysis comparing pregnant heifers on d 0 to the same heifers on d 14 showed 51 significantly differentially expressed genes. Eight genes were further quantified through reverse-transcription quantitative real-time PCR for biological validation. On d 7 after embryo transfer, mRNA transcriptions of EDN1, CXCL3, CCL4, and IL1A were significantly upregulated in pregnant heifers (n = 14) compared with nonpregnant heifers (n = 14), with respective fold changes of 8.10, 18.12, 29.60, and 29.97. Although on d 14 after embryo transfer, mRNA transcriptions of ISG15, MX2, OASY1, and IFI6 were significantly upregulated in the blood of pregnant heifers (n = 14) compared with the same heifers on d 0, with respective fold changes of 5.09, 2.59, 3.89, and 3.08. These findings demonstrate that several immune-related genes and ISG are activated during the first 2 wk after embryo transfer, which may explain how the maternal immune system accommodates the allogenic conceptus. To further investigate the diagnostic potentials of these genes, future studies are warranted to analyze the specificity and sensitivity of these biomarkers to predict early pregnancy.

Diagnostic Potential of Exosomal HypoxamiRs in the Context of Hypoxia-Sumoylation-HypoxamiRs in Early Onset Preeclampsia at the Preclinical Stage. Life (Basel) 2022; 12:life12010101.

Abstract
As the search for non-invasive preclinical markers of preeclampsia (PE) expands, the number of studies on the diagnostic potential of exosomes is growing. Changes in the partial pressure of oxygen caused by impaired uteroplacental perfusion in PE are a powerful inducer of increased production and release of exosomes from cells, which also determine their cargo. At the same time, the expression pattern of oxygen-dependent microRNAs (miRNAs), called "hypoxamiRs", is modulated, and their packing into exosomes is strictly regulated by sumoylation. In connection therewith, we emphasize the evaluation of exosomal hypoxamiR expression (miR-27b-3p, miR-92b-3p, miR-181a-5p, and miR-186-5p) using quantitative RT-PCR, as well as SUMO 1-4 and UBC9 (by Western blotting), in pregnant women with early-onset PE. The findings show that miR-27b-3p and miR-92b-3p expression was significantly changed at 11-14 and 24-26 weeks of gestation in the blood plasma of pregnant women with early-onset PE, which subsequently manifested. High sensitivity and specificity (AUC = 1) were demonstrated for these miRNAs in the first trimester, and significant correlations with a decrease in hemoglobin (r = 0.71, p = 0.002; r = -0.71, p = 0.002) were established. In mid-pregnancy, the miR-27b-3p expression was found to correlate with an increase in platelets (r = -0.95, p = 0.003), and miR-92b-3p was associated with a decrease in the prothrombin index (r = 0.95, p = 0.003). Specific exomotifs of studied miRNAs were also identified, to which the sumoylated ribonucleoprotein hnRNPA2/B1 binds, carrying out their packaging into exosomes. The expression of conjugated SUMO 1 (p = 0.05), SUMO 2/3/4 (p = 0.03), and UBC9 (p = 0.1) was increased in exosomes at early-onset PE, and the expression of free SUMO 1 (p = 0.03) and SUMO 2/3/4 (p = 0.01) was significantly increased in the placenta, as an adaptive response to hypoxia. Moreover, SUMO 2/3/4 was negatively correlated with miR-27b-3p expression in the placenta. In conclusion, the diagnostic potential of exosomal hypoxamiRs mediated by sumoylation may form the basis for the development of combined specific targets for the treatment of early-onset PE, as hnRNPA2/B1 is a target of miR-27b-3p, and its sumoylation creates miR-27b-3p-hnRNPA2/B1-SUMO 1-4 cross-talk.
