Abstract:: Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and zymography were used in two separate experiments to determine the tissue source and type of plasminogen activator (PA) produced by bovine blastocysts. Twelve-14 d blastocysts were collected at slaughter from estrous synchronized, superovulated and artificially inseminated Holstein cows. In Experiment I, blastocysts were...

Abstract:: Expression of membrane-type matrix metalloproteinases (MT) and tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases (TIMP) was evaluated in sheep embryos and uterus during the pre- and peri-implantation periods. Embryos and uterine samples were surgically collected from ewes on days 9, 11, 13, and 15 of pregnancy (n=3 ewes/day) and of the estrous...

Abstract:: Interferon tau (IFN-τ) is the pregnancy recognition signal secreted by the trophectodermal cells of the developing bovine embryo that prevents luteolysis and maintains critical progesterone production. Recent evidence has suggested in addition to the mechanism of action identified in the uterus, there may be a direct effect of IFN-τ on...

Abstract:: This research investigated the development of a novel canine model to study preeclampsia. Normal canine placental development has morphologic and histologic similarities to the shallow trophoblast invasion occurring with preeclampsia in humans, which makes the dog a particularly good choice for modeling this disease and will be an improvement on...
