Plasma metabolite changes in anestrous dairy cows with negative energy balance identified using 1H NMR technology

The objective of the present study was to investigate the different plasma metabolites between anestrus and estrus postpartum dairy cows and to provide a theoretical basis for prevention of anestrus in dairy farm cows. In the experiment, one hundred and sixty-seven Holstein dairy cows were selected with ...

Effect of injectable progesterone on follicular development in lactating beef cows treated with estradiol plus a low-concentration progesterone device

The effect of injectable progesterone was evaluated along with estradiol benzoate (EB) on the fate of the dominant follicle (DF) present in the ovary at the beginning of low progesterone-based TAI protocol. All cattle were given 500 µg cloprostenol im (PGF; Schering-Plough Animal Health for Estrumate, P...

Overexpression of CDC25C affects the cell cycle of ovarian granulosa cells from adult and young goats

Background: CDC25 is a dual-specificity phosphatase that was first identified in the yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe as a cell cycle-defective mutant. Although CDC25 is involved in the cell cycle of ovarian granulosa cells, the CDC25 signaling pathway has not been clarified fully. To explore the role of ...

Although it induces synchronized ovulation, hCG reduces the fertility of Santa Ines ewes submitted to TAI

The aim of this study was to evaluate hCG treatment on ovarian response and on pregnancy rate using a 9-day oestrus synchronization protocol in Santa Ines ewes. On a random oestrus cycle day, ewes received an intravaginal progesterone device (Primer-PR®, Tecnopec, Brazil). Nine days later (Day 9), 30µg...

Fatores anatomofisiologicos que afetam a qualidade oocitária em bovinos

Pesqui. vet. bras; 34 (supl.1), 2014
Para estudar os fatores anatomofisiológicos que interferem na qualidade de complexos cumulus-oócitos (CCOs) bovinos, foram obtidas 396 ovários após abate de 198 fêmeas Bos indicus em frigorífico. Os ovários foram separados por categorias, sendo distribuídos em nulípara vs multípara e com proges...

Desarrollo de un método inmunoenzimático para determinar progesterona
Development of an immunoenzimatic method to determine progesterone

Rev. cuba. endocrinol; 13 (2), 2002
Se desarrolló un método inmunoenzimático, competitivo, en fase líquida, con separación por anticuerpos acoplados a partículas magnetizables, para determinar progesterona en plasma; se basa en la competencia por los sitios de unión de un anticuerpo monoclonal, entre la hormona presente en la muestr...

Concentração de progesterona peripuberal em novilhas mestiças

Rev. bras. ciênc. vet; 4 (1), 1997
O presente estudo reporta observações sobre idade, peso e concentração plasmática de progesterona em novilhas mestiças (zebu x holandês) durante o período peripuberal. As médias de idade e peso na puberdade foram 29,1-2,0 meses e 326-19,2 kg respectivamente. Dos cinco animais acompanhados, dois ...

The possible role of hormonal levels in fibromyalgia

Rev. mex. reumatol; 8 (6), 1993
Estudiamos los niveles hormonales en 18 enfermas con fibromialgia. Once de ellas en etapa premenopáusica y 7 en el periodo postmenopáusico. Medimos los niveles séricos de estradiol, progesterona, hormonas folículo estimulante y luteinizante. Todas las pacientes tuvieron niveles normales de hormona lu...
