Reproductive Effects of PG-600 Administration in Ewes

Creator:: Habeeb, Hayder
Abstract:: Sheep are seasonally polyestrus, which means they do exhibit estrus and ovulation during the short daylight (breeding season) and do not during the long daylight (nonbreeding season). To stimulate the ewes to ovulate during the nonbreeding season, various hormonal treatments have been used. PG-600 contains both equine chorionic gonadotropin and...

Evaluation of novel swim-up approaches on canine sperm progressive motility, concentration, morphology, and acrosome reaction

Creator:: Lengele, Amber
Abstract:: Introduction: Swim-up has been considered a preferred method for separating non-motile sperm in an ejaculate. However, the long incubation time and equipment necessary for swim-up make this process clinically impractical. It was hypothesized that these problems could be avoided for canine applications with a shorter incubation time at room temperature...

Matrix metalloproteinase type-2 and type-9 immunoexpression in bovine caruncular tissue at the time of calving, 2 hours post-calving, and 4 hours post-calving

Creator:: Gentle, Lauren and Kutzler, Michelle
Abstract:: As bovine parturition nears, the placentome undergoes changes that allow placental delivery within 12 hours after calving. These changes include the expression of enzymatic proteins (e.g. MMPs) within the placentome that are capable of breaking down collagen, allowing for the separation of the cotyledon from the caruncle. Dysregulation of either...

Comparison of Canine Spermatozoa Motility, Morphology, and RNA Integrity Using Three Different Cell Purification Solutions

Creator:: Hegedus, Rachel M.
Abstract:: Transcriptome gene expression studies of sperm RNA have been utilized in a variety of different species to investigate causes of male infertility. Previous research investigators have optimized cell separation and RNA isolation techniques for each species of interest. To date, no study has been completed for dogs. The objective of...

Expression of prolactin in feline mammary adenomas and adenocarcinomas

Creator:: Trummel, Danielle K.
Abstract:: Mammary tumors are the third most common tumor in cats after cutaneous neoplasia and lymphosarcoma. More than 80% of feline mammary tumors are adenocarcinomas, which are similar to human mammary adenocarcinomas in their biologic behavior and histologic characteristics. Despite treatment with radical mastectomy, feline mammary adenocarcinoma is associated with a...

Acupuncture prevents the postpartum reduction in matrix metalloproteinase type-2 concentration and enzyme activity in bovine caruncles

Creator:: Hiebel, Katrina A.
Abstract:: The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of acupuncture in dairy cows on caruncular matrix metalloproteinase type-2 (MMP2) tissue concentration and enzyme activity at 0, 2, and 4 hours after calving. Immediately after natural calving, a caruncle was obtained from the body of the uterus and flash...

Cellular characteristics of canine trophoblasts

Creator:: Sahlfeld, Laura
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...

Comparing the Ovarian Expression of Sperm Acrosome Associated 3 Protein in Young and Adult Queens

Creator:: Ramsey, Ann M.
Abstract:: The purpose of this thesis was to quantify sperm acrosome associated 3 (SPACA3) protein expression in the ovaries of young (3.0±0.9 months, n=11) and adult (10.4±2.8 months, n=11) queens. It was hypothesized that SPACA3 expression would not differ between age groups. Immunohistochemistry was performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded feline ovarian sections...

Canine LH Receptors Expression in Non-neoplastic and Neoplastic Tissues

Creator:: Zwida, Khawla
Abstract:: Throughout most of the developed world, surgical sterilization via gonadectomy has become a common tool for combating the overpopulation of unwanted dogs as well as to eliminate the risk of reproductive diseases in pet dogs. In the dog as in other normal adult mammal, the hypothalamus secretes gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH),...

Determining the Onset of Reproductive Capacity in Free-Roaming, Unowned Cats

Creator:: Bohrer, Ellie
Abstract:: The purpose of this thesis was to determine if an underlying biological cause exists for the exuberant reproductive success in free-roaming unowned (FRU) cats. The hypothesis for this thesis was that FRU tom and queen cats have reproductively adapted to man-made sterilization efforts by lowering the age at which they...
