Secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1), vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA), heparinase (HPSE), hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF1A) and uteroferrin (ACP5) gene expression in uterine and placental tissues from Large White-Landrace (LW-LD), hyperprolific Large White (hLW) and Meishan (MS) pigs

Introduction: This study compared uterine and placental expression of genes implicated in placental attachment and angiogenesis in two prolific (hLW and MS) and one control (LW-LD) pig breeds.Methods: Placental and endometrial tissues supplying the smallest and a normal-sized foetus within the same litter were collected from five LW-LD, five hLW and four MS gilts on days 4045 of pregnancy. RNA was isolated and qPCR for SPP1, VEGFA...
