Early pregnancy is maintained in ruminants through the actions of conceptus-derived interferon
(IFN)-tau on the endometrium. IFN-tau alters uterine release of PGF2 „, which results in …

In ruminants, pregnancy results in up-regulation of a large number of IFN-stimulated genes (ISG)
in the uterus. Recently, one of these genes was also shown to increase in peripheral …

… Austin and coworkers linked UCRP expression to early pregnancy when they identified a
16-kDa protein that was secreted by the bovine endometrium in response to conceptus-…

A 16-kDa protein has been identified that is secreted by the bovine endometrium in response
to conceptus-derived interferon (IFN)-τ during early pregnancy. Because this uterine …

Nine female runners and ten walkers completed a 60 min moderate-intensity (70% VO 2
max) run or walk, or 60 min rest in counterbalanced order. Plasma concentrations of the …

The microbes inhabiting the rumen convert low-quality, fibrous, plant material into useable
energy for the host ruminant. Consisting of bacteria, protozoa, fungi, archaea, and viruses, the …

The rumen microbiota plays a large role in the digestion of consumed feeds in ruminant
livestock and likely influences feed efficiency. The objective of this study was to determine …

… In the current study, we held energy expenditure constant (500 kcals or 2093 kJ) during the
moderate and high intensity trials, whereas Ueda and colleagues [10] controlled for time and …

The interferon-stimulated gene ISG15, a ubiquitin homolog, becomes conjugated to and
regulates uterine proteins in response to conceptus-derived interferon-τ on d 18 of pregnancy. It …
