In sheep, the trophectoderm of the elongating conceptus secretes interferon tau (IFNT) and
prostaglandins (PGE2, PGF2alpha, PGI2). The PGs are derived from PG synthase 2 …

Past studies of uterine prostaglandin (PGs) and pig reproduction have focused on
endometrial rather than myometrial PGs. This study documents the synthesis and secretion …

Prostaglandins play an important role in reproduction, particularly in pregnancy and
parturition. We investigated the expression of prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase …

Prostaglandins (PGs) are important regulators of reproductive functions. In ruminants,
interferon (IFN)-τ is the embryonic signal responsible for recognition of pregnancy. This is …

OBJECTIVE: The effects of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) are mediated through G-protein
coupled receptors, acting via different second messengers. The aim of this study was to …

The effects of exogenous oxytocin (OT) and estradiol-17β (E2) on plasma concentrations of
prostaglandin (PG) E2 and 13, 14-dihydro-15-keto-PGF2α (PGFM) were investigated on Day …

Abstract Effects of treatment with progesterone early after estrus and the age of the
blastocyst in the uterus on day-6 postestrus on uteroovarian venous concentrations of …

Abstract Prostaglandin G/H synthase (PGHS) is a key rate-limiting enzyme in the
prostaglandin biosynthetic pathway, and prostaglandins play a central role in the control of …

Our previous studies demonstrated that interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1 alpha) and soluble factors
secreted by polarized uterine luminal epithelial cells (UEC) stimulate prostaglandin (PG) …

The regulation of luteal function in sheep appears to be dependent in part upon relative
utero-ovarian concentrations of PGE 2 and PGF 2 α. Prostaglandin E 2-9-ketoreductase …
