The midcycle surge of LH sets in motion interconnected networks of signaling cascades to
bring about rupture of the follicle and release of the oocyte during ovulation. Many mediators …

Successful ovulation and oocyte fertilization are essential prerequisites for the beginning of
life in sexually reproducing animals. In mammalian fertilization, the relevance of the protein …

Progesterone receptor (PGR) co-ordinately regulates ovulation, fertilisation and embryo
implantation through tissue-specific actions, but the mechanisms for divergent PGR action …

Ovulation has been compared to a local inflammatory reaction. We performed an in silico
study on a unique, PCR validated, transcriptome microarray study to evaluate if known …

ADAMTS (A Disintegrin-like and Metalloproteinase domain with Thrombospondin type 1
Motif)-1,-4 and-5 share the abilities to cleave large aggregating proteoglycans including …

Simple Summary Increasing litter size is critical for the intensive sheep production system.
Genetic marker-assisted selection (MAS) based on proven molecular indicators could …

Mandibular prognathism is characterized by a prognathic or prominent mandible. The
objective of this study was to find the gene responsible for mandibular prognathism. Whole …

Ovulation is the appropriately timed release of a mature developmental competent oocyte
from the ovary into the oviduct where fertilization occurs. Ovulation is triggered by the …

Aim: Fibulins and ADAMTSs are two families of extracellular matrix proteins implicated in
key functional and pathological processes. The fact that the fibulin-1 and ADAMTS-1 …

Background/Aims: A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs
(ADAMTS) enzymes take part in extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling which has been …
