Parturition dysfunction in obesity: time to target the pathobiology
Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2015 Over a third of women of childbearing age in the United States are obese, and during pregnancy they are at increased risk for delayed labor onset and slow labor progress that often results in unplanned cesarean delivery.

Milk production and survival of spring-calving carryover cows in New Zealand dairy herds : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Animal Science at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2017 Non-pregnant cows are generally culled from dairy herds and replaced with two-year-old heifers. Alternatively, non-pregnant cows can be dried-off at the end of lactation, retained for one year (carried over), before being mated and returned to a milking ...

Apoptosis and necrosis of blood and milk polymorphonuclear leukocytes in early and midlactating healthy cows. [PDF]
, 2001 Increased milk somatic cell counts (SCC) are used as an indicator for bovine mastitis. During mastitis, polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) become the predominant cell type.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Sleep spindles are an electrophysiological fingerprint of the sleeping human brain. They can be described in terms of duration, frequency, amplitude, and density, and vary widely according to age and sex. Spindles play a role in sleep and wake functions and are altered in several neurological and psychiatric disorders.

Molecular Regulation of Parturition: The Role of the Decidual Clock.
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2015 The timing of birth is a critical determinant of perinatal outcome. Despite intensive research, the molecular mechanisms responsible for the onset of labor both at term and preterm remain unclear.

Compound Heterozygous MRPS14 Variants Associated With Leigh Syndrome
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT MRPS14 (uS14m) is a nuclear‐encoded ribosomal protein important for mitochondria‐specific translation. To date, only a single individual with a recessive MRPS14‐related disorder (also known as COXPD38) has been reported. We report an additional subject possessing novel compound heterozygous MRPS14 variants (p.Asp37Asn, p.Asn60Asp). The subject

Identification of a Feed-Forward Loop Between 15(S)-HETE and PGE2 in Human Amnion at Parturition
Journal of Lipid Research, 2022 Human parturition is associated with massive arachidonic acid (AA) mobilization in the amnion, indicating that large amounts of AA-derived eicosanoids are required for parturition. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) synthesized from the cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway

Environmental and dam effects on cannibalism in Wistar rat litters
Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2015 The factors related to cannibalistic behavior of dams in a Wistar rat colony are identified and analyzed. The maternal genetic effects were tested as a random effect by the method of generalized linear models.
