Multiparous Holstein cows, averaging 80 d in milk, were used to examine the effect of exogenous bovine somatotropin (bST) on uterine expression of estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha), prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase-2 (PGHS-2), and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta (PPARdelta). About 12 h before expected ovulation in a synchronization protocol, cows were assigned to receive bST (500 mg, n = 11) or serve as untreated controls (n = 10). Cows that ovulated (n = 9 bST, 8 control) were divided within treatment to be killed on d 3 or 7 postovulation. Samples of intercaruncular endometrial tissue from uterine horns ipsilateral to the corpus luteum were collected and stored at -80 degrees C for subsequent mRNA analyses. Endometrial concentrations of ERalpha and PGHS-2 mRNA transcripts were greater on d 7 than on d 3 of the estrous cycle, but did not differ between treatments. Compared with untreated cows, short-term bST treatment decreased PGHS-2 protein expression at d 7 of the estrous cycle. Concentration of PPARdelta mRNA transcript in the uterus decreased between d 3 and 7 of the estrous cycle and was negatively correlated with ERalpha and PGHS-2 mRNA concentrations. Short-term administration of bST to lactating dairy cows had minimal effects on uterine genes encoding ERalpha, PGHS-2, and PPARdelta at d 3 and 7 of the estrous cycle but there may be an inverse relationship between PPARdelta and uterine expression of ERalpha and PGHS-2 genes.
