Molecular characterization of ovine GM1 gangliosidosis
Ovine GM1-gangliosidosis is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder. Affected lambs are born relatively normal, however at approximately four months of age they begin exhibiting severe neurological symptoms. Pathology progresses rapidly in affected lambs ultimately resulting in death by …

Prostaglandin metabolism in the ovine corpus luteum
… On day 4 post estrus and day 13 postcoitus, the ovine corpus luteum is resistant to the luteolytic effects of PGF2α, Thus, the primary biological question that inspired this research is: "What mechanisms allow the corpus luteum early in the estrous cycle and early in pregnancy to be resistant to …

Chemical aspects of some ovine hepatogenous photosensitization diseases
… terrestris and some Panicum species), and the ovine metabolism of saponins implicated in the development of hepatogenous photosensitization diseases, are reviewed. Sarsasapogenin β-D-glucoside and 3β-D-epismilagenin β-D-glucoside were synthesised from sarsasapogenin and α-acetoglucosyl bromide …

Chemical aspects of saponin bioactivity and ovine photosensitization diseases
A general review of saponin chemistry, bioactivities and of chemical aspects of saponin-associated hepatogenous photosensitization of ruminants (sheep, goats, and cattle) is presented. A field trial was undertaken to explore the genin dose/response hypothesis that saponins produced by the plant …

Regional Mechanical Properties and Microstructure of Ovine Heart Chambers
… chambers through a paired comparison study in an ovine model. Ovine heart was used due its physiological and anatomical similarities to human heart. A total of 189 specimens from anterior and posterior portions of the left and right ventricles, atria, and appendages underwent biaxial mechanical …

Effects of periconceptional undernutrition and twinning on ovine pregnancy
Events around conception such as maternal undernutrition and twinning may have effects on offspring physiology and disease risk in adulthood. Periconceptional undernutrition alters offspring physiology and adult pathology without affecting birth size, while twinning affects birth size and …

Cryo-electron microscopy studies on ovine mitochondrial complex I
… Here, a novel method for the purification of ovine (Ovis aries) complex I was developed and suitable conditions for cryo-EM imaging established, after extensive screening of detergents and additives. Cryo-EM images were acquired with the recently developed direct electron detector and …

Stabilised decellularised vascular grafts in an ovine carotid model
… describes their evaluation in a large animal (ovine) model. Methods: Porcine mammary arteries were harvested, decellularised according to an established protocol involving rinsing with sodium hydroxide, alcohol (ETOH), treatment with DNAse/RNAse enzymes, immersion in PGG and subsequently …

Developmental Regulation of Mitochondrial Function in Ovine Fetal Skeletal Muscle
Skeletal muscle is a highly metabolically active tissue, both in the adult and the fetus. Mitochondria are essential in providing energy in the form of ATP from the oxidative metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and amino acids. Mitochondrial function is influenced by the abundance and activity of the …

Mechanisms controlling in vitro progesterone synthesis by the ovine placenta
… of in vitro synthesis of progesterone by the ovine placenta or of mechanisms controlling placental steroidogenesis. Weekly blood samples were collected from ten gestating ewes that were sacrificed for collection of placental tissue on either day 80 (n=5) or day 115 (n=5) of gestation. All …

The epidemiology of ovine progressive pneumonia (ovine lentivirus): Diagnosis, risk factor analysis, and production effects in sheep at the United States Meat Animal Research Center
Molecular diagnostic tests to detect ovine lentivirus (OLV) infected sheep were developed and validated and then applied to study the epidemiology and production impacts of natural OLV infection in flocks at the U.S. Meat Animal Research Center (MARC) in Nebraska. Three OLV recombinant proteins …

Endothelin-1 and Hypoxic Vascular Remodeling in Ovine Fetal Cerebral Arteries
… results demonstrate that chronic hypoxia altered ovine fetal cerebrovascular reactivity to ET-1 but not plasma ET-1 levels or ETA receptor cerebrovascular </p> <p>expression. However, chronic hypoxia enhances ET-1-induced contractility in an ETAdependent manner in Middle Cerebral Arteries (MCAs). …

Long-Term Hypoxia Alters Ovine Fetal Adrenal eNOS and Cortisol Biosynthesis
<p>Maintaining normal levels of cortisol in response to chronic stress, while retaining the ability to respond to acute stress, is important for ensuring normal fetal growth and development. Long-term hypoxia (LTH) causes adaptations in the fetal hypothalamopituitary- adrenal (HPA) axis that …

Once upon a sheep : a SEM analysis of ovine patellar enthesis
… where the patellar tendon joins the tibia in an ovine model. One set of samples was prepared for study via SEM using aqueous solvents whereas the other set was prepared using anhydrous solvents with the intention of comparing the mineral phases present between the two sets of samples. The fibrous …
