Abstract
The objective of the study was to examine which cultured endometrial cells are the source and which are the target for lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) in the bovine uterus. LPA concentration as well as mRNA and protein expressions of the enzymes responsible for LPA synthesis (phospholipase A2: PLA2, autotaxin: AX) were greater in epithelial than in stromal cells (P<0.05). In turn, mRNA and protein expression of LPA receptor (LPAR1) was lower in epithelial than in stromal cells (P<0.05). We suggest that LPA in bovine endometrium is produced mainly by epithelial cells and affects mostly stromal cells acting via LPAR1.
