Hormone glycosylation required for lutropin receptor recognition in sheep testis
FEBS Letters, 1990 The high affinity binding sites for ovine pituitary lutropin (oLH) present in DLS‐1 sheep testis recognized only the fully glycosylated ovine or bovine hormone (bLH) in receptor binding assays using 125I‐labeled oLH. Chemically deglycosylated (DG‐) oLH or bLH which were fully active with other lutropin receptors (rat/pig) were completely inert in the ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract New data on the equine aortic valve obtained using advanced techniques is especially important given the greater availability of animal models for translational research. Here we characterized the morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve from 60 healthy hearts collected at equine abattoirs.

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2011 It is considered necessary to supplement the majority of dietary proteins for the rearing of goats and sheep (Pulina et al., 1990; Robinson, 1987). In ruminants, 70 % of protein requirement is satisfied by cytoplasmic synthesised protein, while the ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract An ultrastructural morphometric analysis of the postnatal development of the lung in the gray short‐tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica) has been conducted to evaluate the morphofunctional status of this poorly developed marsupial lung immediately following parturition.

Mineral requirements for growth of wool and hair lambs
Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2013 The present study was conducted to determine the body composition and the mineral requirements for growth of wool and hair lambs. A total of 34 castrated lambs with an initial body weight (BW) of 19.9±0.8 kg were used; 17 of these lambs were of the ...

Descriptive, comparative, and functional anatomy of the facial musculature in cattle (Bos taurus)
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Facial expressions can provide insight into animal emotions and pain, but no standardized system for assessing the entire facial display in cattle (Bos taurus Linnaeus) exists. The Facial Action Coding System (FACS), originally developed for humans, identifies distinct facial movements based on mimetic muscles.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Polarized microscopic images of the outer bone cortex (a and b) and deeper trabecular bone (c and d) of the deer calcaneus in thin cross‐sections. The brighter gray levels reflect more oblique‐to‐transverse collagen fibers in the compression/dorsal bone (a, c) and the darker gray levels reflect more longitudinal collagen in the tension/plantar bone (b,

Management of Assisted Reproduction in the Palas Merino Sheep Breed
Scientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023 Sheep breeding and exploitation have been and remain an important objective, because this species may use in feeding less valuable forages and the requirements for sheltering and care are less expensive as compared to other species. Assisted reproduction,
