Structures and functions of cilia during vertebrate embryo development

open access: yesMolecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 89, Issue 12, Page 579-596, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Cilia are hair‐like structures that project from the surface of cells. In vertebrates, most cells have an immotile primary cilium that mediates cell signaling, and some specialized cells assemble one or multiple cilia that are motile and beat synchronously to move fluids in one direction.

Nutrient effects on ovulation rate, ovarian function and the secretion of gonadotrophic and metabolic hormones in sheep.

open access: yesJournal of reproduction and fertility. Supplement, 2019
Nutrition is one of the most significant influences on the ovulation rate of sheep. In the extensive systems of husbandry practised in many countries most animals will experience at least one period of nutritional deprivation during their lifetime. Under

The effects of endocrine‐disrupting chemicals on ovarian‐ and ovulation‐related fertility outcomes

open access: yesMolecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 89, Issue 12, Page 608-631, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Exposure to endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs) is unavoidable, which represents a public health concern given the ability of EDCs to target the ovary. However, there is a large gap in the knowledge about the impact of EDCs on ovarian function, including the process of ovulation.

Undergraduate biology students' model‐based reasoning in the laboratory: Exploring the role of drawings, talk, and gestures

open access: yesScience Education, Volume 107, Issue 1, Page 124-148, January 2023., 2023
Abstract This paper reports on a case study of undergraduate biology students' drawing‐based modeling and how this process plays out in naturalistic dialogues. Recent research has revealed the importance of drawings, talk, and gestures in students' model‐based reasoning.

Synchronization of ovulation in crossbred dairy heifers using gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist, prostaglandin F2a and human chorionic gonadotrophin or estradiol benzoate [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2000
Girolando (Gir x Holstein) is a very common dairy breed in Brazil because it combines the rusticity of Gir (Bos indicus) with the high milk yield of Holstein (Bos taurus).

Multi-scale modeling of follicular ovulation as a reachability problem [PDF]

open access: yesMultiscale Modeling & Simulation 6, 3 (2007) 895--912, 2006
During each ovarian cycle, only a definite number of follicles ovulate, while the others undergo a degeneration process called atresia. We have designed a multi-scale mathematical model where ovulation and atresia result from a hormonal controlled selection process.

Oocyte-derived growth factors and ovulation rate in sheep.

open access: yesReproduction (Cambridge, England) Supplement, 2019
The physiological mechanisms controlling ovulation rate in mammals involve a complex exchange of endocrine signals between the pituitary gland and the ovary, and a localized exchange of intraovarian hormones between the oocyte and its adjacent somatic ...

Coordination of Ovulation and Oocyte Maturation: A Good Egg at the Right Time.

open access: yesEndocrinology, 2018
Ovulation is the appropriately timed release of a mature, developmentally competent oocyte from the ovary into the oviduct, where fertilization occurs. Importantly, ovulation is tightly linked with oocyte maturation, demonstrating the interdependency of ...

Effect of omega‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acid supplementation on oxidative stress parameters and sex hormone levels of modern genotype sows

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 191-202, January 2023., 2023
In this study, we supplemented the diet of breeding sows either with omega‐6 (control) or omega‐3 (experimental) polyunsaturated fatty acids and examined their effects on the antioxidant system and hormone levels of the animals. In the blood levels of molecules indicating oxidative stress we experienced slight changes, but the feeding of omega‐3 fatty ...

Effects of flushing with rehydrated corn grain silage on follicular development in tropical Santa Inês ewes

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2020
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of replacing ground corn (402 g kg−1 of dry matter) with rehydrated corn grain silage (RCGS; 425 g kg−1 of dry matter) in a flushing diet on follicular development in tropical Santa Inês ewes ...
