In ruminant placenta, the migration of trophoblastic binucleate cells (BNCs) through the cellular junction between trophoblastic mononucleate cells (TMCs) and facing the endometrial surface establish a complex adjustment unit with individual endometrial epithelial cells without passing through the basement membrane (Wooding and Flint 1994). This phenomenon may be explained by restricted trophoblast invasion to form hybrid feto-maternal trinucleate cells and syncytial plaques in cows and sheep, respectively (Wooding et al. 1980). Cell migration is usually directed by various factors, such as enzymes including matrix metalloproteinases, hormones, chemokines, receptors, and others (Dimitriadis et al. 2005; Majali-Martinez et al. 2016; Pollheimer et al. 2018). In a previous study, the secreted protein of lymphocyte antigen-6 (Ly6) domain 1 (SOLD1) was expressed in bovine trophoblastic cell lines, and its protein regulated cell invasiveness in vitro (Awad et al. 2014). Therefore, SOLD1 may stimulate trophoblast movement to endometrium, including invasion, migration, and proliferation. SOLD1 is a novel secreted member of the Ly6/urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) superfamily, and plays a crucial role in placental structure and fetal membrane development due to its distribution pattern in the mesenchyme of the chorionic villi as well as its modulatory effect on the proliferation and apoptosis of bovine chorionic fibroblast cells (Ushizawa et al. 2009, 2010). SOLD1 was found in the maternal tissue throughout gestation and its expression increased as gestation progressed in cows (Awad et al. 2013); however, the physiological function of SOLD1 remains unclear. In the present study, we examined the effect of SOLD1 on the migration of trophoblast cells in vitro.The bovine trophoblast cell lines, BT-K and-C, which were previously established from in vitro fertilized bovine blastocysts (Suzuki et al. 2011), were used in this study. Briefly, the cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium/F-12 medium (DMEM/F12, Sigma, Saint Louis, MO) containing 100 IU/mL penicillin and 100 μg/mL streptomycin (Sigma), supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Biowest, Nuaillé, France), at 37 C in an atmosphere of 5% CO2 according to a previously described method (Suzuki et al. 2011). The medium was changed every 2–3 d. Collagen-coated flasks were prepared by incubating the flasks with acid-soluble porcine type I collagen (3 mg/mL type IC collagen; Nitta Gelatin Osaka, Japan), diluted 10-fold with distilled water, and poured into flasks for more than 1 h. The flasks were then washed with general culture medium. After a phosphate-buffered saline dissociated wash, the BT-K and-C cell aggregates were plated in collagen-coated flasks. BT-K cells were selected for the migration assay because this cell line highly expressed SOLD1 and had a better invasion power. BT-C, which expressed lower levels of SOLD1 as reported in a previous study, was used only as a control for gene expression (Awad et al. 2014). Cell migration was assessed using Transwell systems (cell culture inserts, no. 353182, BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ) on a porous transparent polyethylene terephthalate membrane (8.0 μm pore size, 1× 105 pores/cm2) placed into 12-well plates (BD Biosciences). Experiments were performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions, as previously described (Grasso et al. 2014). The migrated cells were stained using 0.5% he-
