Equine chorionic gonadotropin alters luteal cell morphologic features related to progesterone synthesis.
Exogenous eCG for stimulation of a single dominant follicle or for superovulation are common strategies to improve reproductive efficiency by increasing pregnancy rates and embryo production, respectively. Morphofunctional changes in the CL of eCG-treated cattle include increases in CL volume and plasma progesterone concentrations. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that eCG alters the content...
متن کاملLipoprotein augmentation of human chorionic gonadotropin and prolactin stimulated progesterone synthesis by rat luteal cells.
A collagenase dispersed cell suspension from PMSG-hCG primed immature rats responded to exogenously added hCG, cholera enteroxin, prolactin, and 8-Bromocyclic-AMP with increase in progesterone production in a dose dependent manner, and this stimulation was augmented by the plasma lipoprotein fractions hHDL and hLDL. The responsiveness to low doses of prolactin was not apparent when lipoprotein ...
متن کاملEquine Chorionic Gonadotropin in African N’dama Cattle
Given its rustic nature, its butchery quality and its trypanotolerance, the N’Dama breed represents a significant potential for developing African cattle breeding [6]. To date, its zootechnical performance and reproductive characteristics have been the subject of relatively little work. The use of selection programmes and artificial insemination are highly significant challenges for developing ...
متن کاملEffect of Different Progesterone Protocol and Low Doses of Equine Chorionic Gonadotropin (eCG) on Oestrus Synchronization in Arabian Ewes
This experiment was conducted to determine the reproductive performance of Arabian ewes treated with short and long-term progesterone devices in addition to low doses of equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG) during the anoestrus season. A total of 36 ewes were divided into three groups: in group I vaginal sponges (60 mg medroxy progesterone acetate; (MAP)) were applied and removed after 6 days; i...
متن کاملPrevention of endometrial apoptosis: randomized prospective comparison of human chorionic gonadotropin versus progesterone treatment in the luteal phase.
To study control of apoptosis in human endometrium, we examined late luteal-phase endometrial biopsies obtained in the late luteal phase for evidence of apoptosis and compared the effects of exogenous human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and progesterone on this process. Using a controlled, prospective, and randomized study design, 12 healthy, fertile, reproductive-age women (ages 20-34 yr) with ...
