Effect of the gestational day (GD) 7 embryo quality grade (QG) and subclinical endometritis (SCE) on mRNA and protein expressions of candidate genes [Interferon-τ (IFNT), IFN stimulated genes (ISG15, CTSL1, RSAD2, SLC2A1, CXCL10, and SLC27A6), Peroxisome proliferator activated receptors (PPARA, D, and G), Retinoid X receptors (RXRA, B, and G), and Mucin-1 (MUC1)] in GD16 conceptus and corresponding endometrium were evaluated. Here, RXRA is linked to endometritis.
