Placental Membranes
  • Yolk Sack
  • In birds to nourish embryo
  • In mammal atrophies but source of blood cells
    and primordial germ cells
  • Amnion
  • Non-vascular, fluid filled
  • Fluid produced by fetus
  • Protective cushion
  • Ruptures at birth (not breaking of water)

23
Placental Membranes (cont.)
  • Allantois
  • Blood vessels
  • Fuses with chorion
  • Allantochorion or chorioallantois
  • Brings blood vessels to chorion
  • Chorion
  • Outermost membrane
  • Attachment to mother

24
Maternal Recognition of Pregnancy
25
Luteal Regression
PGF2a (Bovine, Ovine, Porcine)
PGF2a (Equine)
No Uterine Factor (human)
26
CL Status
CA
  • Mechanisms
  • CL Regression
  • Luteolytic
  • No CL support
  • CL Maintenance
  • Antiluteolytic
  • Block PGF2a effects
  • Luteotrophic
  • Stimulate progesterone production by CL

27
Recognition of Pregnancy
  • Conceptus Secretions
  • Proteins
  • Steroids

28
Recognition of Pregnancy in Bovine and Ovine
  • Conceptus Secretions
  • Interferons
  • oIFN-t
  • bIFN-t
  • Mechanism
  • Antiluteolytic
  • Inhibit oxytocin receptor synthesis
  • Inhibit PGF2a synthesis
  • Critical Days
  • Bovine - 16 to 17
  • Ovine - 12 to 13

29
Recognition of Pregnancy in the Porcine

Recognition of Pregnancy in the Porcine
PGF2a
PGF2a
31
Recognition of Pregnancy in the Porcine
  • Conceptus Secretions
  • Estradiol

Critical Days 11 to 12
  • Mechanism
  • Antiluteolytic
  • Redirect PGF2a
  • Requires 2 embryos per horn

32
Recognition of Pregnancy in the Mare
  • Conceptus Secretion
  • ?

Critical Days 10 to 14
33
Recognition of Pregnancy in the Human
  • Conceptus Secretes
  • HCG
  • Mechanism
  • luteotrophic
  • Critical Days
  • 8 to 12

34
Recognition of Pregnancy
INF-t HCG Estradiol
  • Conceptus Secretions
  • Proteins
  • Steroids

35
Dog and Cat
  • CL does not regress if not pregnant
  • no uterine effect
  • Psuedopregnancy
  • CL last similar length as in pregnancy

38
Type of Implantation
  • Superficial
  • Chorion lies opposed to uterine wall
  • Farm animals
  • Eccentric
  • Chorionic sack in a uterine fold
  • Rodent
  • Interstitial
  • Embryo digests part of uterine wall
  • human

39
Degree of Tissue Loss at Parturition
  • Deciduate
  • Eccentric, interstitial
  • Rodent, human
  • Indeciduate or Nondeciduate
  • Superficial
  • Farm animals

40
Shape or Distribution of Chorionic Villi
  • Cotelydonary - cow, sheep
  • Diffuse - pig, horse
  • Zonary - dog, cat
  • Discoid - human

Formation of Syncytium
Binucleate Cell

Multinucleated Cells in Uterine Epithelium
45
Binuclear Giant Cells
  • 20 of fetal placenta
  • Invade endometrium
  • Source
  • Placental lactogen
  • Pregnancy specific protein B

46
Placental Lactogens (Protein Hormones)
Prolactin-like activity
Stimulates Milk Synthesis
Not Present in Pig and Mare
  • May regulate maternal metabolism to facilitate
    fetal growth
  • High levels in the last 1/3 of gestation.
  • High levels facilitate higher milk production.
  • Dairy cows have higher blood concentrations than
    beef cows

47
Pregnancy Specific Protein B
  • Unique to ruminants
  • Function uncertain
  • Has been used to detect pregnancy
  • Cattle, sheep, deer
  • Can be used to detect pregnancy in cows after day
    25
  • Not early pregnancy factor!!!

48
Diffuse Placenta

Endometrial Glands
Endometrium
Uterine Arteries
Uterine Veins
50
Endometrial Cups in Mare
  • From both trophoblast and endometrium
  • 5 to 10
  • Form between days 35 to 60
  • Produce equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG, PMSG)
  • Sloughed off after day 60

Important!!!!
  • In all cases, fetal and maternal blood does not
    mix.
