The uterus is essential for embryo implantation and fetal development. During the estrous
cycle, the uterine endometrium undergoes dramatic remodeling to prepare for pregnancy …

The objective of this study was to perform a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to
detect chromosome regions associated with indicator traits of sexual precocity in Nellore …

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) through activating its G protein‐coupled receptors (LPAR 1–6)
exerts diverse cellular effects that in turn influence several physiological processes including …

Contents The bovine corpus luteum (CL) is a transient gland with a life span of only 18 days
in the cyclic cow. Mechanisms controlling CL development and secretory function may …

Background In the cow, lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) acts as an auto-/paracrine factor,
through its receptors LPAR1-4, on oocytes and cumulus cells during in vitro maturation …

Retained fetal membranes (RFM) is a prevalent postpartum disease in mares. During
parturition, various proinflammatory cytokines are released in the placenta, which further …

Background Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) regulates reproductive processes in the cow.
Ovarian granulosa cells play a pivotal role in follicle growth and development. Nevertheless …

In the present study we examined whether LPA can be synthesized and act during in vitro
maturation of bovine cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs). We found transcription of genes …

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a known cell signaling lipid mediator in reproductive tissues.
In the cow, LPA is involved in luteal and early pregnancy maintenance. Here, we evaluated …

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) known as a serum-derived growth factor, is involved in several
cell physiological functions in the female reproductive system including: oocyte maturation …
