Proteases and their inhibitors are involved in the process of pregnancy by remodeling uterine endometrium and placenta in many mammals. During placentation, proteases and their inhibitors contribute to formation of epitheliochorial type placentation in pigs. Our previous study showed that LGMN and CST6 were expressed in the uterine endometrium and localized mainly to glandular epithelial cells (GE) and chorionic membrane (CM) during mid to late pregnancy. In this study, we investigated expression of LGMN and CST6 in the uterine endometrium and fetal membrane during pregnancy in pigs. Uterine endometrial tissue samples and fetal membrane samples were collected from D30, D60, D90, and D114 of pregnancy. Real-time RT-PCR analysis showed that both LGMN and CST6 mRNAs were detected in the uterine endometrium and fetal membrane in all samples with higher levels during mid to late stage of pregnancy. Analysis by immunoblotting revealed that LGMN protein was present in the porcine uterine endometrium and fetal membrane. Based on the placental and endometrial distribution of proteases and their inhibitors, we examined LGMN mRNA and LGMN protein expression in the neonatal pigs. In situ hybridization analysis using the intestine from D90 of piglet revealed that LGMN mRNA was highly expressed in the absorptive epithelium of the intestinal villi. Immunohistochemical experiments demonstrated that LGMN protein was localized to epithelial villi. These results suggest a possible role of LGMN in modification of proteins that are transported through the fetal membrane from the uterine for successful transport and utilization in the fetus.
