In the last decade, several new aspects of the inflammation of the bovine endometrium have
been investigated and described, including a new definition of subclinical endometritis. This …

The endometrium regulates the inflammatory response after infection by production and
release of cytokines and chemokines. The objective was to compare gene expression of …

Advances in our understanding of ovarian cyclicity, pathogenesis of subfertility and/or
infertility and reproductive pathology in food animals have frequently entailed examination of …

The objectives of this study were to assess the agreement between endometrial cytology
and uterine biopsy for the diagnosis of subclinical endometritis (SEND) in grazing dairy …

The objectives of this observational study were to identify the optimal diagnostic criteria for
purulent vaginal discharge (PVD) and cytological endometritis (ENDO) using vaginal …

Metritis and endometritis commonly occur in dairy cows after calving. Although numerous
studies have been performed to identify the causative pathogens, a complete overview has …

Inflammation of the post-partum uterus is a normal physiological event, crucial for tissue
involution and repair. However, in the bovine, some cows fail to resolve this inflammation …

Despite the importance of fertility in humans and livestock, there has been little success
dissecting the genetic basis of fertility. Our hypothesis was that genes differentially …

Reproductive diseases are a great barrier to dairy production, as they diminish fertility and
cause economic loss. In this context, endometritis plays an important role. Different …

Coxiella burnetii is an obligate intracellular pathogen and the cause of Q fever in many
animal species and humans. Several studies have reported the association between C …
