RNA-seq analysis of swine reproductive tissues including endometrium, oviduct and ovary through the estrous

The underlying genomic regulation of the tissue synchronization is poorly understood. To understand this better we investigated the transcriptomes of the porcine ovary, endometrium, and oviduct at days 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, or 18 of the oestrous cycle. We analysed the transcriptome profiles of the individual tissues. Overall design: The tissues of gilts were collected on days 0 (the onset of oestrous behaviour), 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, or 18 of the oestrous cycle by hysterectomy. In total, whole mRNA sequencing profiles of 67 samples from 23 female pigs (23 profiles for Endometrium, 22 profiles for Oviduct and 22 profiles for Oviduct tissues).
