Effects of insulin-like growth factor-1 on the proliferation and apoptosis of stallion testicular cells under normal and heat stress culture conditions
This study investigated the effect of heat stress on stallion testicular cells (TCs) and the effect of insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 on TC viability, proliferation, and apoptosis, including different stages of germ cells. TCs were divided into control or treatment groups with 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, and 100 ng/mL of recombinant human IGF-1 (rhIGF-1) for 24 h at 34 °C and 37 °C. The population and viability were measured before and after treatment. The effects of rhIGF-1 on TC viability, proliferation, and apoptosis were determined using RT-qPCR. Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and marker of proliferation Ki-67 (...

Evaluation of minimally invasive estrus synchronization protocols in brown brocket deer (Subulo gouazoubira)
This study aimed to evaluate minimally invasive protocols for estrus synchronization in the brown brocket deer (Subulo gouazoubira). Females were submitted to Latin square design, in different treatments. All females received 0.25 mg of estradiol benzoate on the first day of treatment, concomitant with one of the following sources of progesterone: (1) DIP: an intravaginal progesterone releasing device for eight days, (2) MGA1x: once a day (in the morning) oral dose of 1 mg melengestrol acetate for eight days, (3) MGA2x: twice a day (morning and afternoon) oral doses of 0.5 mg of MGA for eight days, (4) P4LA: a single i.m. ...

A systematic review of mammary gland inflammations in queens (Felis catus)
Anim Reprod Sci. 2023 Aug 12;256:107318. doi: 10.1016/j.anireprosci.2023.107318. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMastitis is a rare condition that can be diagnosed in female cats of all breeds and ages. It is usually caused by bacterial agents and is frequently encountered secondarily in feline mammary fibroepithelial hyperplasia (FEH). If left untreated, it can peril both the queen and her kittens. Therefore, a reliable and quick diagnosis is the primary key to successful treatment. Conventional diagnosis consists of a clinical and ultrasound evaluation of the queen's mammary glands. However, there is a lack of literature s...

The thermographic monitoring in early pregnancy detection in Holstein cows and heifers
In conclusion, it was determined that the clinical application of thermography can be used for the detection of pregnancy on day six after AI in cows. However, further studies are needed to determine heifers' thermographic characteristics and profiles.PMID:37573631 | DOI:10.1016/j.anireprosci.2023.107317 (Source: Animal Reproduction Science)

Comparative studies on ovary and serum hormone levels in silver and blue foxes and their hybrids
Anim Reprod Sci. 2023 Aug 2;256:107316. doi: 10.1016/j.anireprosci.2023.107316. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe silver and blue fox appear closely related despite their belonging to different genera, and the male and female fox hybrids are completely sterile in mating inter se or back to either of the parental groups. In the present study, we compared ovarian morphology and serum hormone concentrations among silver foxes, blue foxes, HSBs (silver fox male × blue fox female hybrids) and HBSs (blue fox male × silver fox female hybrids) during the pre-breeding and the breeding period. We found that either the fertile blue...
