Increase of skin temperature prior to parturition in mares [PDF]
, 2022 Prediction of impending foaling is highly desirable as early intervention may improve mare and foal outcomes. However, monitoring the peripartum mare is a time-consuming challenge for breeders and many foaling prediction systems have limitations ...

Whole Blood Holding Time Prior to Plasma Processing Alters microRNA Expression Profile
Frontiers in Genetics, 2022 MicroRNAs (miRNAs) can exhibit aberrant expression under different physiological and pathological conditions. Therefore, differentially expressed circulating miRNAs have been a focus of biomarker discovery research. However, the use of circulating miRNAs

The Role of Neutrophils in Pregnancy, Term and Preterm Labour
Life, 2022 Neutrophils are surveillance cells, and the first to react and migrate to sites of inflammation and infection following a chemotactic gradient. Neutrophils play a key role in both sterile inflammation and infection, performing a wide variety of effector ...
