Regulation of ovarian oxytocin and prostaglandin F2[alpha] release in the ovine oestrous cycle
… addresses the regulation of ovarian oxytocin and prostaglandin F2a (PGF2a) release in the ovine oestrous cycle, their role in luteolysis and a possible mechanism by which the oxytocin secretory pathway is controlled in ovarian tissue.

Synchronizing Estrus and Improving Subsequent Production and Performance with Prostaglandin F2 Alpha and Pregnant Mare Serum Gonadotropin
… in two trials to evaluate the effects of prostaglandin and pregnant mare serum on reducing weaning to estrus interval, increasing the degree of estrus synchrony and improving fertility at estrus resulting in improved pregnancy rates and subsequent litter performance. Sows were randomly …

Evaluation of the 7 and 7 synch protocol for control of the estrous cycle among beef cows prior to fixed-time artificial insemination with sex-sorted or conventional semen
… insert (CIDR) on Day -10, and administration of prostaglandin F2[alpha] (PG) coincident with CIDR removal on Day -3. Cows assigned to 7 and 7 Synch (n = 769) received PG and insertion of CIDR on Day -17, GnRH on Day -10, and PG coincident with CIDR removal on Day -3. Estrus detection aids were …

Investigating the Role of the PGF2 Alpha/Calcineurin-Signaling Pathway in the Regulation of Adipogenesis
<p>Prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) is a potent physiological inhibitor of adipocyte differentiation. In previous studies, we demonstrated that PGF2α inhibits adipogenesis via activation of the calcium-regulated protein phosphatase, calcineurin. In this current study, we have now …

The Effects of Chronic Prophylactic Naproxen Sodium on Skeletal Muscle Adaptation to Resistance Exercise in Recreationally-Trained College-Aged Males
… exert their effects by blocking the formation of prostaglandins; however, prostaglandins, specifically prostaglandin F 2?, also play an important role in skeletal muscle regeneration. While some have advocated the use of NSAIDs for the relief of EAP, research demonstrating the necessity of …

Monitoring and improving reproductive performance of crossbred dairy cattle in Tigray Region, Ethiopia
… Internal Drug Release (CIDR) in combination with prostaglandin F2-alpha (PGF2α) and equine chorionic gonadotrophin (eCG) based estrus synchronisation protocol to study the estrus response and conception rate. The overall estrus response and conception rates were 97.5% and 78.3%, respectively, with …
