Endometrial explant cultures were prepared from 16 Brahman x Angus cows killed on Days 0, 2, 5 or 8 after oestrus. Cultures proceeded for 24 h at 39 degrees C (homeothermic) or 43 degrees C (heat shock) in a modified Eagle's minimal essential medium supplemented with 50 microCi L-[4,5(-3)H]leucine. Analysis by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of de-novo synthesized proteins secreted into the medium indicated that the major types of secreted polypeptides did not change over Days 0-8. Nevertheless, overall endometrial secretion of protein (incorporation of [3H]leucine into non-dialysable radioactivity in culture supernatants) was greatest at Day 0 and declined thereafter. Incorporation of [3H]leucine into TCA-precipitable material in tissue homogenates was also greatest at Day 0. For tissue cultured at 39 degrees C, several individual polypeptides were secreted at greater rates by endometrium from the horn of the uterus ipsilateral to the corpus luteum, with side differences tending to be greatest at Day 0 or Day 2. Overall, secretion of de-novo synthesized protein by endometrium was significantly elevated by heat shock at Day 0, but not affected thereafter. Nonetheless, heat shock reduced secretion of several individual proteins and exhibited interactions with day of the oestrous cycle and with side of the uterus. Secretion of 7 polypeptides was reduced by heat shock in tissue from the ipsilateral horn of the uterus but not in endometrium from the contralateral horn. We suggest that endometrial protein secretion changes quantitatively during the early oestrous cycle. In addition, there is a local influence of the ovary bearing the corpus luteum on endometrial function that may be disrupted by heat shock.
