The objective of this research was to evaluate the relationship between different levels of subclinical mastitis with the early gestation lost during the first 90 post-insemination days in Holstein dairy cattle. The research was made on a... more
Final oocyte maturation using GnRH-agonist trigger in a GnRH-antagonist protocol is increasingly common, as ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome is almost completely avoided. However, this approach might lead to reduced pregnancy rates due... more
In the present work, we investigated the role of Nodal, an embryonic morphogen from the TGFβ superfamily in corpus luteum (CL) secretory activity using cells isolated from equine CL as a model. Expression pattern of Nodal and its... more
In the non-pregnant dog, ovarian cyclicity is independent of a uterine luteolysin. This is in contrast to pregnant animals where a prepartum increase of luteolytic PGF2α occurs, apparently originating in the pregnant uterus. Recently, the... more
The effects of active immunization against progesterone on reproductive activity were studied in Merino ewes. Immunization against progesterone caused a shortening (P less than 0.01) of the interval between ovulations from 17-18 days... more
Information on nucleic acids and protein content of buffalo corpus luteum (CL) in relation to growth, development and regression is not available. An experiment was thus conducted to investigate the variation and relationship between... more
The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of a second treatment with prostaglandin F2α (PGF) during Ovsynch on regression of the corpus luteum (CL) and on fertility to the timed artificial insemination. Two experiments... more
Interferon-tau (IFNT), a maternal recognition of pregnancy (MRP) signals in domestic ruminants, suppresses the release of luteolytic pulses of uterine prostaglandin F2a (PGF2a), thus extending the corpus luteum (CL) life span. We... more
The light microscopic of Corpus luteum and the different cell types in the functional corpus luteum of the bat were studied. Two types of luteal cell,a large and small, were present in the corpus luteum of this species of bat. The large... more
In several species including the buffalo cow, prostaglandin (PG) F2α is the key molecule responsible for regression of corpus luteum (CL). Experiments were carried out to characterize gene expression changes in the CL tissue at various... more
The effect of daily injections of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) on luteal maintenance in hysterectomized prepuberal gilts induced to ovulate and in hysterectomized mature gilts was studied. Twenty-four pre-puberal gilts, 120 to 130 d... more
