Prokineticin 1 is a novel factor regulating porcine corpus luteum function

Abstract: Prokineticin 1 (PROK1) is a pleiotropic factor secreted by endocrine glands; however, its role has not been studied in the corpus luteum (CL) during pregnancy in any species. The present study aimed to investigate the contribution of PROK1 in regulating processes related to porcine CL function and regression: steroidogenesis, luteal cell apoptosis and viability, and angiogenesis. The luteal expression of PROK1 was greater on Days 12 and 14 of pregnancy compared to Day 9. PROK1 protein expression during pregnan… Show more

“…Thus, PROK1 acting through PROKR1 is an embryonic signal mediator in the endometrium and participates in early pregnancy establishment by angiogenesis promotion, trophoblast cell proliferation and adhesion, and the regulation of the expression of genes involved in conceptus–maternal communication (Figure 2). Moreover, our recent study suggests that PROK1 can also regulate porcine CL function (Baryla et al, 2021).…”
