This study aimed to develop an in vitro model for the analysis of the bovine endometrium. Immunofluorescent staining revealed that the hetero‐spheroids and the cultured explants showed almost similar structure in the localization of bovine endometrial epithelial cells and endometrial stromal cells, except the glandular‐like structure of the epithelial cells inside the explants. Gelatin zymography revealed that the hetero‐spheroids did not express matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) after 4 days of culture, but strong MMP expressions were observed in the cultured explants until 7 days of culture. Additionally, expression of progesterone receptor (PR), estrogen receptor alpha (ERα), type I interferon receptor 1 (IFNAR1) and 2 (IFNAR2) messenger RNA was observed both in the homo‐ and hetero‐spheroids. The expression of oxytocin receptor (OTR) mRNA in E2 and E2+P4 (1,3,5(10)‐Estratrien‐3, 17β‐diol + 4‐Pregnen‐3, 20‐dinone) treated groups were significantly (P < 0.05) higher than that of the control group of spheroids. In case of cultured explants, the expression of PR and OTR mRNA were significantly (P < 0.05) higher in E2 treated groups compared to the control groups. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) mRNA expression was also higher in P4 treated groups at 10 days in culture (P < 0.05). In a nutshell, the in vitro model developed in this study for the analysis of the endometrium may provide a new platform for extensive research on bovine endometrial function.  相似文献

The aim of the study was to localize oxytocin receptors (OTR) and measure mRNA expression of OTR in the canine uterus with and without the influence of progesterone. Uterine samples were taken from nine anoestrous and eight dioestrous bitches during ovariohysterectomy. Histological changes were evaluated in haematoxylin and eosin (HE)‐stained samples. Purified polyclonal antibody for OTR was used in immunohistochemistry to localize receptors in uterine layers. Relative mRNA concentration of OTR was evaluated with real‐time PCR from full‐thickness uterine samples taken from the middle horn and the body. Myometrial smooth muscle cells, endometrial luminal epithelium (LE) and deep and superficial glandular epithelium were positively stained for oxytocin receptors in non‐pregnant animals. No significant difference in staining intensity was detected between uterine middle horn and body. However, the staining intensity of LE was significantly higher in dioestrous than in anoestrous uteri (p < .05). Leucocytes and endothelium of blood vessels were also positively stained for OTR. Real‐time PCR showed no significant differences in OTR mRNA expression between the middle horn and the body of the uterus, or between anoestrous and dioestrous uterus. No correlation was noted between OTR mRNA expression and blood progesterone concentration. In conclusion, despite the apparent inactivity, the uterus of the non‐pregnant bitch expresses OTR. The distribution or relative expression of OTR does not differ between uterine horn and body in dioestrus or anoestrus except in LE. LE may have more oxytocin‐dependent activity during dioestrus than anoestrus.  相似文献

The study investigated, for cycling sheep, synchronizing protocols simultaneously to the standard “P” protocol using progestogens priming with intravaginal devices and gonadotropin. In November 2014, 90 adult Menz ewes were assigned to either the “P” protocol, “PGF” treatment where oestrus and ovulation were synchronized using two injections of prostaglandin 11 days apart or a “GnRH” treatment where the ewes had their oestrus and ovulation synchronized with GnRH (day 0)–prostaglandin (day 6)–GnRH (day 9) sequence. The ewes were naturally mated at the induced oestrus and the following 36 days. Plasma progesterone revealed that 92% of the ewes were ovulating before synchronization and all, except one, ovulated in response to the applied treatments. All “P” ewes exhibited oestrus during the 96‐hr period after the end of the treatments in comparison with only 79.3% and 73.3% for “PGF” and “GnRH” ewes, respectively (p < .05). Onset and duration of oestrus were affected by the hormonal treatment (p < .05); “GnRH” ewes showed oestrus earliest and had the shortest oestrous duration. Lambing rate from mating at the induced oestrus was lower for “P” than for “PGF” ewes (55.6% and 79.3%, respectively; p < .05). The same trait was also lower for “P” than for “PGF” and “GnRH” ewes (70.4%, 89.7% and 86.7%, respectively; p < .05) following the 36‐day mating period. Prostaglandin and GnRH analogue‐based protocols are promising alternatives for both controlled natural mating and fixed insemination of Menz sheep after the rainy season when most animals are spontaneously cycling.  相似文献

During the cycle, the secretion of progesterone by the corpus luteum inhibits the positive feedback of oestrogens and thus prevents the LH discharge, and also primes the central nervous system for oestrous behaviour. Prostaglandin F2α has been identified as the hormone produced by the uterus which causes luteal regression. The LH discharge leading to ovulation follows the demise of the CL. None of the characteristics of the LH surge (duration, maximum level, total release) can be related to ovulation rate. However, the interval from onset of oestrus to the beginning of the LH discharge is greater in highly prolific breeds than in less prolific ones.The knowledge of these physiological processes leading to oestrus and ovulation makes possible the control of ovarian activity in the ewe. In cyclic females, the control of the timing of the LH discharge and ovulation can be obtained either by inducing luteolysis with PGF2α or its synthetic analogues after day 4–5 of the cycle, or by artificially lengthening the luteal phase with exogenous progesterone or progestagens.During the seasonal and post-partum anoestrus, PGF2α is ineffective and progesterone or progestagens alone are generally unable to induce oestrus and ovulation. Addition at the end of progestagen treatment of inducers of follicular growth and LH release is necessary. Both PMSG and synthetic GnRH are used for this purpose.  相似文献

This study was aimed to investigate the effects of the different compatibility of medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) with prostaglandin(PG), N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and letrozole (LE) on plasma related hormones levels of reproductive ewes. Thirty-nine and 3-year-old multiparity Suffolk ewes with average weight (75.51+11.55)kg were selected,and assigned into 3 groups,test group Ⅰ:Basis diet+34 mg/d MPA+1 mL/ewe PG, test group Ⅱ:Basis diet+34 mg/d MPA+600 mg/d NMDA, test group Ⅲ:Basis diet+34 mg/d MPA+ 14 mg/d LE, respectively, the trial period lasted for 18 days. The results showed as follows:On the basis of supplemental feeding MPA with PG treated,the levels of FSH in plasma of ewes were extremely significantly increased (P<0.01); Treated with NMDA, the levels of E2, MLT,FSH and LH in plasma of ewes were extremely significantly increased (P<0.01), respectively;Treated with LE, the levels of MLT,LH and T in plasma of ewes were extremely significantly increased (P<0.01), respectively. This study suggested that MPA+NMDA and MPA+LE could be used as medicines for regulate and control oestrus of ewes, and the effect of MPA+NMDA was the best.  相似文献

We have studied in the porcine endometrium the expression of oxytocin receptor (OTR) mRNA and the effect of progesterone (P4) on oxytocin/oxytocin receptor (OT/OTR) function concerning intracellular Ca2+ mobilisation ([Ca2+]i), prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha) and E2 (PGE2; PG) secretion. Tissue was taken from cyclic and early pregnant pigs (days 14-16). A higher expression of OTR mRNA (P < 0.05) was observed in the endometrium of cyclic than pregnant pigs. The stimulatory (P < 0.05) effect of OT (10(-7) M) on [Ca2+]i mobilisation was noticed within 15-60 s and 30-60 s in endometrial stromal cells of cyclic and pregnant pigs, respectively. In the presence of P4 (10(-5) M) basal and OT-stimulated [Ca2+]i concentrations decreased in stromal cells during luteolysis and pregnancy. In stromal cells P4 delayed mobilisation of [Ca2+]i in response to OT by 15 s during luteolysis and had no effect during pregnancy. In cyclic and pregnant epithelial cells OT stimulated mobilisation of [Ca2+]i in 45 s and 60 s, respectively. Oxytocin increased (P < 0.05) PGF2alpha secretion during luteolysis and pregnancy and PGE2 during luteolysis from endometrial slices. Progesterone did not inhibit this stimulatory effect. During luteolysis OT increased (P < 0.05) PGF2alpha in epithelial and stromal cells and PGE2 secretion in epithelial cells. In the presence of P4 this effect of OT was reduced only in stromal cyclic cells (6 h culture). The presence of P4 decreased the effect of OT on [Ca2+]i mobilisation only in stromal cells. We found that, in most conditions, P4 did not inhibit the OT-stimulated secretion of PG in the porcine endometrium.  相似文献

This study aims to develop at different seasons, for local North African Maure goats, synchronizing protocols simultaneously to the standard ‘S’ protocol using progestagens in association with prostaglandins and gonadotropin. In late May, 40 goats were assigned to either the ‘S’ protocol or to a protocol where oestrus and ovulation were induced by the buck effect in single‐injection progesterone‐treated goats and provoking early luteolysis using prostaglandin 9 days after exposure to bucks ‘B’. During the 72 h after the treatments ended, 15 and 5 goats expressed oestrus in the ‘S’ and ‘B’ protocols (p < 0.01). Mean time to oestrus was shorter for ‘S’ than for ‘B’ goats. Ovulation rate averaged 2.1 ± 0.22 and 1.60 ± 0.35 for, respectively, ‘S’ and ‘B’ goats (p > 0.05). During mid‐September, 60 goats were assigned to either ‘S’ treatment, ‘PGF’ treatment where oestrus and ovulation were synchronized using two injections of prostaglandin 11 days apart or to ‘GnRH’ treatment where the goats had their oestrus and ovulation synchronized with a GnRH (day 0)–prostaglandin (day 6)–GnRH (day 9) sequence. More ‘S’ goats were detected in oestrus over the 96‐h period after the end of the treatments (88.8, 73.7 and 55% in ‘S’, ‘PGF’ and ‘GnRH’ treatments, respectively; p < 0.05). Mean ovulation rates were 2.3 ± 0.27, 1.33 ± 0.27 and 1.33 ± 0.27 for, respectively, ‘S’, ‘PGF’ and ‘GnRH’ goats (p < 0.001). Despite a similar ovulatory response to ‘S’ protocol, efficiency of prostaglandin and GnRH‐based treatments should be tested in mid‐breeding season.  相似文献

Gilt oestrus and ovulation responses to injection of a combination of equine chorionic gonadotrophin (eCG) and human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) (PG600) can be unpredictable, possibly reflecting inadequate circulating LH activity. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of PG600 followed by supplemental hCG on gilt ovarian responses. In experiment 1, 212 Hypor gilts (160 day of age) housed on two farms in Spain received intramuscular (i.m.) injections of PG600 (n = 47), or PG600 with an additional 200 IU hCG injected either concurrently (hCG‐0; n = 39), or at 24 h (hCG‐24; n = 41) or 48 h (hCG‐48; n = 45) after PG600. A further 40 gilts served as non‐injected controls. Ovulation responses were determined on the basis of initial blood progesterone concentrations being <1 ng/ml and achieving >5 ng / ml 10 d after the PG600 injection. The incidence of ovulating gilts having progesterone concentrations >30 ng/ml were recorded. During the study period, 10% of control gilts ovulated whereas 85–100% of hormone‐treated gilts ovulated. There were no significant differences among hormone groups for proportions of gilts ovulating. The proportions of gilts having circulating progesterone concentrations >30 ng/ml were increased (p ≤ 0.02) in all hCG treated groups compared with the PG600 group. In experiment 2, a total of 76 Hypor gilts at either 150 or 200 days of age were injected with PG600 (n = 18), 400 IU eCG followed by 200 IU hCG 24 h later (n = 20), PG600 followed by 100 IU hCG 24 h later (n = 17), or 400 IU eCG followed by 300 IU hCG 24 h later (n = 21). Blood samples were obtained 10 days later for progesterone assay. There were no effects of treatment or age on incidence of ovulation, but fewer 150‐day‐old gilts treated with PG600 or 400 IU eCG followed by 200 IU hCG had progesterone concentrations >30 ng / ml. We conclude that hCG treatment subsequent to PG600 treatment will generate a higher circulating progesterone concentration, although the effect is not evident in older, presumably peripubertal, gilts. The mechanism involved and implications for fertility remain to be determined.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To compare oestrus synchronisation using two treatments of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and one of prostaglandin F2 alpha (PG) with a double prostaglandin synchronisation protocol under southern Australian conditions. DESIGN: A clinical trial. PROCEDURE: Eight hundred and forty, seasonally calving, lactating dairy cows within nine herds in the Tallangatta district of northeast Victoria were randomly allocated to treatment and control groups. The treatment (GnRH) group received gonadotropin-releasing hormone followed by prostaglandin F2 alpha and then a second treatment with gonadotropin-releasing hormone. These cows were inseminated at a fixed time after the second gonadotropin-releasing hormone treatment. Cows in the control (PG) group received two injections of prostaglandin F2 alpha, 14 days apart, and were inseminated according to detected oestrus. RESULTS: The effect of GnRH treatment on first service conception rate (CRS1) and 30 day pregnancy rate (PR30) varied between herd (P < 0.001 and P < 0.02, respectively). A significant difference in CRS1 between treatment (GnRH) and control (PG) groups existed in pooled data from eight of the nine herds (38.1% vs 65.9%, P < 0.001). A significant difference also existed in PR30 between treatment (GnRH) and control (PG) groups in pooled data from eight of the nine herds (64.1% vs 72.4%, P = 0.03). Pregnancy rates after 56 days of mating for both groups were not significantly different (79.8% vs 84.1%, P = 0.13 for treatment (GnRH) and control (PG) groups, respectively). Submission rates (proportion of cows submitted for insemination) for the treatment (GnRH) groups were 100%. There was significant variation in submission rates in the control (PG) groups. CONCLUSION: The GnRH protocol may be of benefit in herds where a poor response to the double prostaglandin program is anticipated. However, in the majority of herds in this trial, the double prostaglandin program achieved better results with fewer inseminations.  相似文献

AIMS: To determine if resynchrony, using a progesterone (P4) / oestradiol benzoate (ODB) regime, of previously treated, anovulatory anoestrous (AA) cows would increase the probability of oestrus, conception and pregnancy compared to no resynchrony. Additionally, the effect of prostaglandin F2alpha (PG) treatment of cows not detected in oestrus, but in which a corpus luteum (CL) was palpable transrectally (NDO/CL+), was compared with no treatment. METHODS: Cows not detected in oestrus by 1 week before the start of the seasonal breeding programme were categorised as AA or NDO/CL+, based on absence or presence of a palpable CL, respectively. All AA cows were treated with an intravaginal device containing 1.36 g P4 (CIDR-B) for a period of 6 days, and with 1 mg ODB by intramuscular (I/M) injection 1 day after the device was removed (Day 0). Half the AA cows that were detected in oestrus between Days 0 and 3 were randomly assigned to be resynchronised by reinsertion of a clean used CIDR-B device on Day 15, for a period of 6 days, followed by an I/M injection of 0.5 mg ODB, 1 day after the device was removed (resynchrony, RS), while the other half were not resynchronised (no-RS). NDO/CL+ cows were alternately assigned to be either treated with 25 mg of the PG, dinoprost tromethamine, on Day 0 or left as untreated controls (Con). RESULTS: Resynchrony increased the percentage of cows detected in oestrus between Days 14 and 28 (212/282 = 75.2% vs 155/285 = 54.4%, for RS vs no-RS, respectively; p<0.001), but had no effect on conception rate to a service within the first 3 days of the mating period (146/397 = 36.8% vs 148/399= 37.1%, for RS vs no-RS cows, respectively; p>0.9), or to a service between Days 14 and 28 (84/159 = 52.8% vs 114/217 = 52.5%, for RS vs no-RS cows, respectively; p>0.9). Resynchrony increased the Day 28 pregnancy rate (264/432 = 61.1% vs 237/435 = 54.5%, for RS vs no-RS cows, respectively; p=0.03), but had no effect on the Day 56 or final pregnancy rates (p>0.1).Prostaglandin treatment of NDO/CL+ cows did not affect the percentage of cows detected in oestrus by Day 7 (43/106 = 40.6% vs 51/101 = 50.5%, for Con vs PG, respectively; p=0.15), or Day 28 (92/106 = 86.8% vs 91/101 = 90.1%, for Con vs PG, respectively; p>0.4). Treatment did not affect the Day 28 pregnancy rate (55/103 = 53.4% vs 54/98 = 55.1%, for Con vs PG, respectively; p>0.9), the Day 56 pregnancy rate (81/103 = 78.6% vs 74/98 = 75.5%, for Con vs PG, respectively; p>0.6), or the final pregnancy rate (98/103 = 95.1% vs 89/97 = 91.8%, for Con vs PG, respectively; p>0.3). CONCLUSIONS: Resynchrony of AA cows treated using the present protocol increased the proportion of non-pregnant cows detected in oestrus between Days 14 and 28 and increased the Day 28 pregnancy rate. This resynchrony protocol may be useful for increasing the proportion of the herd pregnant in the first month of the breeding programme, especially in herds that have a history of a low proportion of non-pregnant cows detected in oestrus between Days 14 and 28. There was no benefit in treating NDO/CL+ cows with PG compared to no treatment. KEYWORDS: Dairy cows, anoestrus, treatment, resynchrony, prostaglandin, progesterone, oestradiol benzoate.  相似文献

Oestrus synchronisation, fertility and kidding behaviour were studied in 44 Black Bengal goats. They were divided into six experimental groups: group 1, control; group 2, progesterone; group 3, progesterone, pregnant mare serum gonadotrophin (PMSG) and human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG); group 4, prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha); group 5, PGF2 alpha, PMSG and HCG; group 6, PMSG and HCG. There was 100 per cent synchronisation of oestrus in the groups treated with progesterone, progesterone with PMSG and HCG, and prostaglandin with PMSG and HCG. In the other two treated groups the synchronisation was between 66 and 75 per cent. In the control group only 50 per cent of the animals came into oestrus during the period of observation. The duration of oestrus varied between 19 and 24 hours except in group 5 where it was 40.87 hours. Animals came on heat between 95 and 137 hours after treatment except in group 5 where the interval was only 18.87 hours. A maximum fertility of 75 per cent was observed in group 4 while the kidding percentage was greatest in group 2. There appeared to be no beneficial effect of superovulation on the number of kids produced. Gestation length was similar in all the groups.  相似文献

The length of the oestrous cycle, oestrus and the time of ovulation were assessed in 20 adult, non-lactating zebu cows over 53 consecutive days of observation. Oestrus was detected at 30-minute observation periods daily. Peripheral blood samples were collected twice weekly for progesterone determination. To measure the length of the synchronised oestrous period, 10 cows with a palpable corpus luteum were injected with prostaglandin F2 alpha and continuously observed for 96 hours. Two cows at a time were exposed to a bull with a deviated penis for five minutes every three hours during this period. To measure the length of the natural oestrus, eight of the 10 cows from the previous experiment were continuously observed from day 21 after prostaglandin injection. They were kept during the daytime in a field with two teaser bulls and at night in a cattle pen where they were exposed to a teaser bull every three hours. Oestrus was considered to occur when the cow stood to be mounted. Ovulation was detected by rectal palpation every three hours in five cows starting six hours after receptivity commenced until ovulation took place. The length of the oestrous cycle was 20.1 +/- 1.9 days; 20 per cent of the animals did not show oestrus although their progesterone levels demonstrated that they were cycling. Two cows showed oestrus following prostaglandin F2 alpha injection although they were cycling as revealed by serum progesterone. Five animals showed behavioural oestrus around 118 hours after injection and following their release. Oestrus duration was 15.3 +/- 6.0 hours and ovulation occurred 28.2 +/- 5.0 hours after the start of the period of sexual receptivity.  相似文献

A review is presented of the roles of prostaglandins in swine reproduction. PGE and PGF are both produced in the ovary. PGE is thought to mediate steroidogenic activity of L.H. on the development of the granulosa cells leading to increased progesterone production in the preovulatory phase of the oestrus cycle. PGF2 acts on the theta cells leading to increased oestradiol and oestrps manifestation. The PG blocker indomethacin prevents oocyte rupture, but not maturation. The L.H. surges in the follicular phase stimulate ovarian PG production which initiates oestrus and ovulation.

The uterus produces PGF2𝛂. Disorders leading to abortion usually result in excess PGF2𝛂 production at the endometrium leading to luteolysis. With normal gestation circulatory progesterone levels fall during the last two weeks of pregnancy associated with increased circulatory foetal corticoid levels. The foetal corticoids are thought to trigger endometrial PGF2𝛂 levels leading to luteolysis and parturition.

The use of exogenous PGF2𝛂 for induction of oestrus and abortion, parturition, semen collection and resolution of anoeitrus is reviewed.  相似文献

Ovsynch is a program developed to synchronize ovulation for timed breeding. In this paper, the authors investigate whether controlled internal drug release (CIDR)-based protocols prevent premature ovulation before timed-artificial insemination (AI) when Ovsynch is started a few days before luteolysis in cycling beef cows. Nine beef cows at 16 days after oestrus were treated with (1) Ovsynch, i.e. gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) analogue on day 0, prostaglandin (PG) F(2alpha) analogue on day 7 and GnRH analogue on day 9 with timed-AI on day 10, (n=3); (2) Ovsynch+CIDR (Ovsynch protocol plus a CIDR for 7 days from day 0, n=3), or (3) oestradiol benzoate (OB)+CIDR+GnRH (OB on day 0 in lieu of the first GnRH treatment, followed by the Ovsynch+CIDR protocol, n=3). In the Ovsynch group (1) plasma progesterone concentrations fell below 0.5 ng/mL earlier (day 5) than in both CIDR-treated groups (2) and (3), where this occurred on day 8. Plasma oestradiol-17beta concentrations peaked on day 8 in the Ovsynch group and on day 9 in both CIDR-treated groups. The dominant follicle ovulated on day 10 in the Ovsynch group and on day 11 in both CIDR-treated groups. Thus, both CIDR-based protocols prevented premature ovulation before timed-AI in Ovsynch when the protocol was started a few days before luteolysis. This reflects the fact that progesterone levels remained high until the beef cattle were treated with PGF(2alpha).  相似文献

Increased secretion of prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) within the uterus because of uterine inflammation can cause luteolysis and result in early embryonic loss. Supplementation with polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) has been shown to influence PG production in many species, although the effects on the mare remain unknown. The present study aimed to determine fatty acid uptake in equine endometrial explants and evaluate their influence on PG secretion and expression of enzymes involved in PG synthesis in vitro. Equine endometrial explants were treated with 100 μM arachidonic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, or docosahexaenoic acid and then challenged with oxytocin (250 nM) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 1 μg/mL). Production of PGF2α and PG E2 (PGE2) was measured, and mRNA expression of enzymes involved in PG synthesis was determined with quantitative real-time PCR. Media concentrations of PGF2α and PGE2 were higher (P < 0.0001) from endometrial explants challenged with oxytocin or LPS compared with controls despite which fatty acid was added. Only DHA lowered (P < 0.0001) media concentrations of PGF2α and PGE2 from explants. Endometrial explants stimulated with oxytocin had increased expression of PG-endoperoxide synthase 1 (PTGS1; P < 0.02), PG-endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2; P < 0.001), PG F2α synthase (PGFS; P < 0.01), PG E2 synthase (PGES; P < 0.01), and phospholipase A2 (PLA2; P < 0.005) compared with controls and regardless of fatty acid treatment; whereas stimulation with LPS increased expression of PTGS2 (P < 0.004), PGFS (P < 0.03), PGES (P < 0.01), and PLA2 (P < 0.01) compared with controls and regardless of fatty acid treatment. Treatment with PUFAs, specifically DHA, can influence PG secretion in vitro through mechanisms other than enzyme expression.  相似文献

Different doses of 15-methyl-PGF2 alpha (0.125-10 mg) were used to induce luteolysis and oestrus in 7 heifers with 28 treatments on day 8-12 of the oestrous cycle. Twenty-three out of 28 treatments gave the desired response and the animals showed signs of oestrus within 5 days post-injection. The doses of 0.25-10 mg can be used to induce luteolysis and oestrus. The dose of 0.125 mg was not effective to induce luteolysis and only 1 out of 4 treatments responded. When higher doses were given (1-10 mg), progesterone levels decreased more rapidly and reached 1 nmol/l 16.2 h earlier than in animals which responded to doses less than 1 mg. The minimum effective dose was considered to be 0.25 mg. Clinical signs of oestrus, regression of corpus luteum and variation in the interval to oestrus were similar as for PGF2 alpha or its other analogues. By measurement of the main circulating prostaglandin F2 alpha metabolite, it was found that an endogenous PGF2 alpha release occurred 1-3 days post-injection of 15-methyl-PGF2 alpha. Furthermore in cases of post-oestrous bleedings an endogenous PGF2 alpha release was also seen concomitantly with the bleeding. This prostaglandin analogue seems to be useful for farm management and can be an alternative to other PGF2 alpha analogues.  相似文献

Sex steroids in synergy with prostaglandins (PG) are involved in the regulation of cyclic ovarian function. In this study, we investigated the mRNA expression of three genes involved in arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism and hence PG production in domestic cats: PG‐endoperoxide synthase (PTGS2), PGF2α synthase (PGFS) and PGE2 synthase (PGES). Feline endometria (n = 16) were collected at oestrus and mid and late phases of pseudopregnancy. In addition, the effects of E2 and/or P4 on PG secretion and gene expression on endometrial explants were studied in an in vitro culture system. Expression levels of all examined genes were up‐regulated at the mid phase of pseudopregnancy. The effects of E2 and/or P4 treatment on both PG secretion and expression of the genes were observed after 12 h of culture. Expression of PGES was significantly up‐regulated by E2 plus P4 at oestrus and the mid phase of pseudopregnancy and was also up‐regulated by a single treatment with P4 at late pseudopregnancy (p < 0.05). Simultaneous incubation with E2 and P4 up‐regulated PTGS2 gene expression at oestrus and mid‐luteal phase (p < 0.05). Progesterone plus E2 significantly increased PGE2 secretion at oestrus and the mid phase of pseudopregnancy. However, treatment with E2 and/or P4 affected neither PGF2α secretion nor PGFS expression at any phase after 12 h of culture. The overall findings indicate that genes involved in PG synthesis are up‐regulated at the mid phase of pseudopregnancy. An increase in PGE2 secretion and up‐regulation of PGES and PTGS2 are the main responses of the endometrium to treatment with E2 and P4 at oestrus and the mid phase of pseudopregnancy in the cat. These data support the hypothesis that ovarian sex steroids via endometrial PGE2 are involved in endocrine homoeostasis, especially at oestrus and the mid, but not the late, phase of pseudopregnancy in cats.  相似文献
