Effects of an anti-gonadoliberin releasing hormone vaccine on testicular, epididymal and spermatogenic development in the horse. [PDF]
Reprod Domest Anim, 2022 Abstract The effects of the GnRH vaccine Improvac® on testicular and epididymal morphometrics, histology and spermatogenesis were measured in 19 young (15–20 months) colts randomly assigned to one control (saline, castration at 57 days, n = 6) or either of two GnRH vaccine‐treatment groups, T‐57 (castration at 57 days, n = 7) or T‐100 (castration at ...

Effect of immunocastration using Improvac on the regulation of adiponectin and leptin in the testes of Landrace boars [PDF]
Medycyna Weterynaryjna, 2022 Immunological castration of male pigs is an attractive alternative to surgical castration used in many countries to reduce the production of the main androgen, androstenone, and skatole, responsible for meat taint. To understand the effect of gonadoliberin (GnRH) vaccination with Improvac on the functional status of Landrace pig testes at the molecular

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, Volume 107, Issue 5, Page 1158-1166, September 2023., 2023 Abstract In cervids, blood biochemical markers may reflect changes in various physiological and environmental factors, especially in response to changes in metabolism following nutrient supplementation or the manipulation of hormone production. Decreasing androgen production through immunocastration (IC) to ease the husbandry of male animals is ...

Immunocastration in adult boars as a model for late‐onset hypogonadism
Andrology, Volume 10, Issue 6, Page 1217-1232, September 2022., 2022 Abstract Background While immunocastration has been studied in male pre‐pubertal pigs, data on older, sexually mature animals are limited. To understand the physiological effects of androgen deprivation in the late sexual development phase, we compared mature immunocastrated boars (n = 19; average age = 480 days) to young male immunocastrated pigs (n =

Suppression of reproductive behaviour and gonadal function in female horses—An update
Reproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 57, Issue S4, Page 4-12, September 2022., 2022 Abstract The behaviour of mares is often detrimental to their performance resulting in frequent demand for methods to suppress gonadal function. In addition, prevention of unintended reproduction especially in feral horse populations may require methods for suppression of gonadal function.

Active immunisation against GnRH as treatment for unilateral granulosa theca cell tumour in mares
Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 53, Issue 4, Page 740-745, July 2021., 2021 Abstract Background Stallion‐like or aggressive behaviour in mares affected by unilateral granulosa theca cell tumour (GTCT) is well‐known, but use of a GnRH‐vaccine as an alternative to surgical removal of the neoplastic ovary has not been investigated.
