Ruminants have a superficial implantation pattern. The extended conceptus attaches to the receptive endometrium to form the cotyledonary placenta. During the attachment, a large number of events occur at the maternal-fetal interface. However, the related molecular mechanisms have not been fully understood. Integrin beta8 (ITGB8) is a subunit of integrin beta involved in embryo implantation. In this study, we determined peri-implantation expression and regulation of ITGB8 in goat uterus. The mRNA and protein levels of ITGB8 were both high in goat endometrial luminal epithelium (LE) and superficial glandular epithelium (sGE) during the adhesion period (Days 16-19 of pregnancy). Such expression profile was opposite to that of microRNA-187 (miR-187). Then, we validated that miR-187 targeted the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of ITGB8 in primary goat endometrial epithelial cells (EECs). In EECs, inhibition of miR-187 resulted in not only up-regulated ITGB8 level but also reduced cell proliferation and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) activity. Moreover, ITGB8 and miR-187 were regulated by interferon tau (IFNT). Altogether, in goat, the miR-187/ITGB8 axis may be involved in conceptus attachment and is downstream of IFNT. Our results will help us better understand the mechanisms of ruminant implantation and may provide a useful tool to improve the reproduction ratio for ruminants.
