Metabolomic signature of maternal-conceptus communication during conceptus elongation. A schematic depiction of our current understanding of the metabolomics surrounding bovine conceptus elongation. Dashed arrows indicate speculative autocrine and paracrine signaling. Abbreviations: uterine luminal fluid (ULF), Days 8–18 conceptus (D8–D18), oxytocin receptor (OTR), estrogen receptor alpha (ESR1), interferon tau (IFNT), progesterone (P4), and conceptus-normalized (CN).
