Recognition and establishment of pregnancy involve several molecular and cellular interactions
among the conceptus, uterus, and corpus luteum (CL). In ruminants, interferon-τ (IFNτ) …

Reproductive cyclicity and pregnancy require cell and tissue specific expression of oestrogen
(OR) and progesterone receptors (PR). To determine the effects of cycle day and early …

Appropriate integrin expression appears to be necessary for successful implantation of human
embryos and varies considerably among species. The present study was undertaken to …

Targeted screening remains an important approach to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
testing. The authors aimed to derive and validate an instrument to accurately identify …

Prostaglandins (PGs) play important functions in the reproductive system, and PGE 2 appears
necessary for recognition of pregnancy. We have found that PGE 2 is able to increase …

On the basis of results obtained in vitro, we previously proposed a model in which signals
from the conceptus, namely interferon-tau (IFN-τ) and prostaglandin E 2 , increase the …

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are a family of nuclear transcription
factors thought to act as receptors for polyunsaturated fatty acids and to reduce production …

The objectives were to examine the effects of bovine somatotropin (bST), pregnancy, and
dietary fatty acids on expression of key endometrial genes and proteins regulating …

Simple Summary Prebiotics such as seaweeds have been proposed as positive influencers
on hen health and productivity, including their response to stressors such as heat. The …

The oviduct plays a crucial role in mammalian reproduction by providing an optimal
environment for the final maturation and transport of gametes, fertilization, and early embryonic …
