ABSTRACT
Implantation of the blastocyst into the uterus is the gateway for further embryonic development in mammals. Programming of blastocyst to an implantation-competent state known as blastocyst activation is the determining factor for implantation into the receptive uterus. However, it remains largely unclear how the blastocyst is globally programmed for implantation. Employing a delayed implantation mouse model, we show here that the blastocyst undergoes extensive programming essential for implantation. By analyzing the transcriptional profile of blastocysts with different implantation competency, we reveal the dynamic change in the biosynthesis, metabolism, and proliferation during blastocyst reactivation from diapause. We also demonstrate that reactivation of the X chromosome, one of the most important events during periimplantation of female embryonic development, is not completed even in blastocysts under conditions of dormancy, despite long term suspension in the uterus. Moreover, the mural trophectoderm (TE), but not the polar TE, differentiates to be more invasive through the weakened cell-cell tight junctions and extracellular matrices (ECMs). By analyzing the differentially expressed profile of secretory proteins, we further demonstrate that the blastocyst functions as a proinflammatory body to secrete proinflammatory signals, such as TNFα and S100A9, thereby triggering embryo-uterine attachment reaction during implantation. Collectively, our data systematically and comprehensively disclose the programming of blastocyst reactivation from diapause for implantation and uncover previously undefined roles of blastocyst during implantation.
