Collection:

Collection ID:CO001517
Collection Summary:Placentomes were collected at necropsy from control ewes and ewes treated with cortisol (CORT: 1mg/kg/d from day 115 of pregnancy) at days 141-144 of gestation. CORT ewes received an intravenous infusion of cortisol (Solu-Cortef, hydrocortisone sodium succinate in sodium phosphate; Pfizer, New York, NY); control animals did not receive any treatment. Animals were sacrificed for collection of tissues at the first signs of labor, as evidenced by changes in uterine blood flow; placentomes were collected from sheep in early stages of labor at between 141-144 days and 142-144 days of gestation in the cortisol-treated and control groups, respectively. In this cohort of ewes, there were 7 control ewes, of which data were collected from placentomes of 7 live fetuses (including one set of twins); there was one lamb born, and that placenta was not collected. In this cohort there were 11 cortisol- treated ewes, from which we collected placentomes from 5 live fetuses. There was one live lamb born, and 5 stillborn lambs, from which placentas were not collected. Placentomes were classified as A-D placentomes, snap frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored in -80C until metabolomic analysis.
Sample Type:Placenta

Treatment:

Treatment ID:TR001537
Treatment Summary:Placentomes were collected at necropsy from control ewes and ewes treated with cortisol (CORT: 1mg/kg/d from day 115 of pregnancy) at days 141-144 of gestation. CORT ewes received an intravenous infusion of cortisol (Solu-Cortef, hydrocortisone sodium succinate in sodium phosphate; Pfizer, New York, NY); control animals did not receive any treatment.

Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP001530
Sampleprep Summary:High-resolution magic angle spinning (HR-MAS) proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) was used to determine metabolites present in placental tissue. Briefly, 30 μL of deuterium oxide (D2O) with 3.3 mM 3-(Trimethylsilyl)-1-propanesulfonic acid (DSS) as a reference standard was added to 27.7-52.1 mg (mean 35.3 mg) of placental tissue before being placed into a 4 mm HR-MAS rotor (Bruker Biospin) and spun at 6 kHz with a spectral width of 10 ppm. Data were acquired on an Avance III 600 MHz Bruker NMR spectrometer equipped with a 4 mm HR-MAS probe at the University of Georgia Complex Carbohydrate Research Center. Data were acquired using a one-dimensional experiment with T2 filter using Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) pulse sequence with water presaturation (CPMGPR1D).
