    Notes: Abstract. Obplacental giant cells are enlarged cells, found following implantation, in the antimesometrial region of the rabbit uterus. They probably originate from trophoblastic knobs that traverse the uterine epithelium during early implantation. Little is known about their function. In this study, trophoblast, placental, paraplacental and obplacental tissues at days 7–15 post-coitum, and enzyme-isolated giant cells at day 15 were studied by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, followed by immunoblotting and light-microscopic immunohistochemistry, for the presence of human chorionic gonado- tropin-like proteins. Immunostaining was performed by using anti-human chorionic gonadotropin antibodies. In gel electrophoresis of obplacental tissue and isolated giant cells, two proteins of human chorionic gonadotropin-like antigenicity at 26 kDa with pIs equivalent to pH 6.4 and 6.6 were found; they were absent in the placenta, paraplacenta, day-7 blastocyst and day-8 trophoblast. The onset of synthesis of these proteins could be observed when day-8 trophoblastic tissue was cultured in vitro for 24 h. In immunohistochemistry, only the obplacental giant cells showed a positive reaction, indicating that the production of chorionic gonadotropin occurs in this cell type.

    Notes: Abstract Rabbit blastocysts of day 6 post coitum were cultured in a chemically defined, protein-free medium for 24 h. Although the trophoblast continued to grow, the embryonic disc degenerated. Addition of basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2, of human recombinant or bovine origin, 10 ng/ml) to the culture medium resulted in significant developmental progress. The embryonic disc became pear-shaped showing a round anterior edge and a posterior node. The primitive streak and Hensen's node indicated that gastrulation had begun. Mesoderm formation was confirmed from histological sections and by localization of the expression of T-gene transcripts in whole-mount preparations. FGF-2 mRNA was detected in both day-6 endometrium and day 6-blastocysts using in vitro translation followed by immunoprecipitation with a monoclonal antibody to FGF-2. In the uterine secretions of day-6 pregnant and pseudopregnant animals, several proteins exhibiting FGF-2 antigenicity were detected on Western blots following two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. As day-6 blastocysts required exogenous FGF-2 in vitro and as FGF-2 of uterine origin is present in the uterine secretion, the maternal growth factor can promote gastrulation in vivo.
