Use of an immunocontraceptive vaccine in feral Kaimanawa mares
Porcine zona pellucida vaccine sourced from the USA caused a significant serological response in captive Kaimanawa mares. Two injections of the vaccine given two weeks apart gave a serological response similar to that resulting from three injections given every two weeks over four weeks. Two injections of a vaccine produced at Massey University given to a thoroughbred mare gave a similar respon...
متن کاملPopulation - level effects of immunocontraception in white - tailed deer ( Odocoileus virginianus )
In North America, dense populations of white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) in suburbs, cities and towns have stimulated a search for new population-management tools. Most research on deer contraception has focused on the safety and efficacy of immunocontraceptive vaccines, but few studies have examined population-level effects. We report here results from two long-term studies of populat...
متن کاملI-13 Infertility with Impaired Zona Pellucida Adhesion of Spermatozoa from Mice LackingTauCstF-64
Background: Fertilization is a multistep process requiring spermatozoa with unique cellular structures and numerous germ cell-specific molecules that function in the various steps. In the highly coordinated process of male germ cell development, RNA splicing and polyadenylation help regulate gene expression to ensure formation of functional spermatozoa. Male germ cells express tauCstF-64 (Cstf2...
متن کاملImmunocontraception of white-tailed deer using native and recombinant zona pellucida vaccines.
We conducted a 2-year feasibility study with native porcine zona pellucida (PZP) vaccine and three recombinant rabbit zona pellucida vaccines (RC55, RC75a and a combination of RC55, RC75a and RC75b) as an initial phase of developing a recombinant immunocontraceptive vaccine to control reproduction in overpopulated herds of white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus). Forty captive white-tailed d...
متن کاملComparative efficacy of two immunocontraceptive vaccines.
As part of our research program to develop immunocontraception as a wildlife management tool, we compared the physiological responses of wild Norway rats (Rattus norvegicus) to two immunocontraceptive vaccines; one involved mouse zona pellucida peptide (MZPP); the other involved gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH). Efficacy was monitored by immune, hormonal, and natality responses. Both vacci...
