The ecology of gestational growth in a wild cooperative mammal

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using data from hundreds of wild pregnant meerkats, Thorley et al show that gestational growth varies widely, is shaped by nutrition but not social conditions, and improves pup survival without shortening telomeres. The fitness consequences and limited flexibility of prenatal growth likely enhance selection on early postnatal growth plasticity ...

Kisspeptin as a test of hypothalamic dysfunction in pubertal and reproductive disorders

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract The hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis is regulated by the gonadotropin‐releasing hormone pulse generator in the hypothalamus. This is comprised of neurons that secrete kisspeptin in a pulsatile manner to stimulate the release of GnRH, and, in turn, downstream gonadotropins from the pituitary gland, and subsequently sex steroids and ...

Perfil de progesterona e intervalo ao estro de receptoras bovinas sincronizadas com doses reduzidas de cloprostenol Profile of progesterone and interval to estrus in bovine embryo recipients synchronized with reduced cloprostenol doses

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2005
Objetivou-se comparar os efeitos da aplicação de diferentes doses de cloprostenol sódico (doses equivalentes a 50% da convencional), nas vias intramuscular (IM) ou intra-vulvosubmucosa (IVSM), sobre as taxas de sincronização, o intervalo da aplicação ao ...

Assessing the Value of Coordinated Sire Genetics in a Synchronized AI Program [PDF]

open access: yes
Synchronized artificial insemination was used to inseminate cows using different types of sire genetics, including low-accuracy, calving-ease, and high-accuracy. These three calf sire groups were compared to calves born to cows bred using natural service.

Luteinizing hormone receptor knockout mouse: What has it taught us?

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Luteinizing hormone (LH), along with its agonist choriongonadotropin (hCG) in humans, is the key hormone responsible for the tropic regulation of the gonadal function. LH and hCG act through their cognate receptor, the luteinizing hormone/choriongonadotropin receptor (LHCGR; more appropriately LHR in rodents lacking CG), located in the testis ...

Effects of 2, 4, 5-Trichlorophenoxyacetic Acid on Swiss-Webster Mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
Pure and Commercial samples of the herbicide 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5- T) were tested on Swiss-Webster mice for: (1) interruption of the estrus cycle and (2) teratogenic effects.

Proteomic profiling of porcine seminal extracellular vesicles reveals potential in vivo fertility biomarkers

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Predicting male fertility in farm animals remains a challenge. Seminal plasma (SP) contains a high amount of heterogeneous seminal extracellular vesicles (sEVs), believed involved in reproductive processes and maybe key to understanding male fertility.

Preclinical models for evaluating psychedelics in the treatment of major depressive disorder

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Psychedelic drugs have seen a resurgence in interest as a next generation of psychiatric medicines with potential as rapid‐acting antidepressants (RAADs). Despite promising early clinical trials, the mechanisms which underlie the effects of psychedelics are poorly understood.
