Uterine infection with bacteria and the release of peptidoglycan (PGN), antigenic cell wall components of both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, can cause early pregnancy losses in ruminants, but the associated mechanisms remain unsolved. Day 7 blastocyst starts to secrete a minute amount of interferon-tau (IFNT) in the uterine horn which is required for early stage of maternal recognition of pregnancy (MRP) in ruminants, and it induces interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) for driving uterine receptivity in cows. This study investigated if PGN disrupts IFNT response through modulation of endometrial ISGs expressions. Cultured bovine endometrial epithelial cells (BEECs) were treated with embryo culture medium (ECM) or IFNT (1 ng/ml) in the presence or absence of a low level of PGN (10 pg/ml) for 24 h. A real-time PCR analyses revealed that the presence of PGN suppressed IFNT-inducedISGs(OAS1andISG15) andSTAT1expressions in BEECs. To visualize the impact of PGN in anex-vivomodel that resembles thein vivostatus, endometrial explants were treated by IFNT (1 ng/ml) with or without PGN (10 pg/ml) for 12 h. PGN suppressed IFNT-induced gene expressions of the above factors, but not forIFNA receptor type1 (IFNAR1) or type2 (IFNAR2)in explants. Immunofluorescence analysis illustrated that PGN completely suppressed the IFNT-triggered OAS1 protein expression in the luminal epithelium of explants. Of note, PGN did not stimulate pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNFAandIL1B) orTLR2mRNA expression in both models. These findings indicate that the presence of low levels of PGN suppresses ISGs expression induced by IFNT secreted from early embryo, at the luminal epithelium of the bovine endometrium. This could severely interfere with early stage of MRP processes in cows, leading to pregnancy failure.
