Comparing Methods to Select Candidates for Re-Genotyping to Impute Higher-Density Genotype Data in a Japanese Black Cattle Population: A Case Study

Animals, 2023
As optimization methods to identify the best animals for dense genotyping to construct a reference population for genotype imputation, the MCA and MCG methods, which use the pedigree-based additive genetic relationship matrix (A matrix) and the genomic ...

Expression of factors involved in apoptosis and cell survival is correlated with enzymes synthesizing lysophosphatidic acid and its receptors in granulosa cells originating from different types of bovine ovarian follicles

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2017
Background Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) regulates reproductive processes in the cow. Ovarian granulosa cells play a pivotal role in follicle growth and development.

Canine sperm motility is associated with telomere shortening and changes in expression of shelterin genes

BMC Veterinary Research, 2023
Background Motion quality is a critical property for essential functions. Several endogenous and exogenous factors are involved in sperm motility. Here, we measured the relative telomere length and evaluated the gene expression of its binding-proteins ...

The effect of prednisolone on sperm viability, sperm penetration rate and intra-uterine insemination rates in men with marked sperm agglutination and antisperm antibodies

مجلة كلية الطب, 2005
Summary: Background: the immune system differentiates between the endogenous and exogenous bodies that inter the body. The break-down of blood-testis barrier results in the production of antisperm antibodies. This may occur in the case of an infection to
