Abstract Placenta is the bond between the mother and the fetus during pregnancy, During pregnancy, it undergoes a dynamic process from formation, development to maturity and degradation, and its abnormal function may lead to abnormal fetal development or even abortion. Apoptosis is an important way for placental tissue to maintain homeostasis and function properly. Studying the dynamic changes and molecular mechanism of apoptosis in placenta tissue at various stages of yak (Bos grunniens)'s pregnancy. In this study, the placental tissue of calves at various stages of pregnancy were collected to detect the expression of apoptosis-related proteins Fas (factor associated suicide)/Fasl (factor associated suicide ligand), Bcl-2 (b-cell lymphoma-2)/Bax (b-cell lymphoma-2 assaciated X protein) and Caspase3 (cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase3)/Caspase9 (cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase 9) by immunohistochemistry. It was shown that Fas and Fasl protein were highly expressed in the placenta and early pregnancy, and showed a downward trend as the pregnancy progresses. Bcl-2 protein was mainly expressed in fetal villus epithelium and gradually decreasing with prolonged expression during pregnancy. Bax was highly expressed in fetal villus epithelium and early trophoblasts, it had a marked increase in late pregnancy. Caspase3 was mainly expressed in the endometrium, while Caspase9 was clearly expressed in the fetal trophoblast. Evidently apoptosis-related proteins Fas/Fasl, Bcl-2/Bax and Caspase3/Caspase9 had extensive cell-specific and time-specific expression patterns in placental tissues of yak during pregnancy. It was speculated that apoptosis-associated protein-mediated apoptosis would play a important role in the normal function of placental tissue during the dynamic changes of placental tissue formation, development, maturation and degeneration. This experiment provides a theoretical basis for studying and solving the problems in the production process of yak, such as abortion, fetal growth restriction and other anomalies.
