(2009-05-15)This dissertation focused on two classes of molecules implicated in processes of implantation and placentation in sheep and pigs. Study one examined the temporal/spatial distribution of several Small Integrin-Binding Ligand, ...
-
(2009-05-15)Coordinated signals between the maternal endometrium and conceptus during the peri-implantation period are essential for the establishment and maintenance of pregnancy. In pigs, this involves estrogen secretion from ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)Recurrent early pregnancy loss in the ovine uterine gland knockout (UGKO) ewe model manifests on Day 14 of pregnancy, indicating that endometrial secretions are critical for peri-implantation conceptus development. Therefore, ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)The peri-implantation period in mammals is critical with respect to survival of the conceptus and establishment of pregnancy. During this period of pregnancy, reciprocal communication between ovary, conceptus, and endometrium ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) binds synthetic and chemoprotective phytochemicals, and research in this laboratory has developed selective AhR modulators (SAhRMs) for treatment of breast cancer. Activation of the AhR ...
-
(2010-07-14)This research was conducted to test the hypothesis that select nutrients including glucose, leucine, arginine and glutamine stimulate conceptus development by activating mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin; HGNC approved ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)During early pregnancy in ruminants, progesterone (P4) from the corpus luteum (CL) and interferon tau (IFNT) from the conceptus act on the endometrium to regulate genes including interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) that are ...

(2017-07-14)Transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) superfamily signaling regulates multiple reproductive events. However, the in vivo role of the TGFβ signaling in uterine development and function is not well defined. Conditional ...
