RESUMO -Os efeitos de prostaglandina (PGF 2 a) vs CIDR e eCG (gonadotrofina coriônica eqüina) na dinâmica folicular da primeira onda e sua relação com as concentrações plasmáticas de P 4 e E 2 foram investigadas em ovelhas cíclicas. Foram utilizadas 14 fêmeas ovinas da raça Bergamascia; o Grupo 1 (G1) foi submetido a duas aplicações de PGF 2α e o Grupo 2 (G2), tratado com CIDR durante 14 dias, sendo que, no momento de sua retirada, administraram-se 500 UI de eCG. A dinâmica folicular ovariana foi monitorada por meio de ultrasom. Monitoraram-se todos os folículos ≥ 2mm e mapeou-se sua posição diariamente, observando-se o desenvolvimento individual de cada folículo. Desde o dia anterior à aplicação da segunda dose de PGF 2α (G1) e desde a administração de eCG (G2) até o décimo dia do ciclo estral, foram coletadas amostras de sangue para análise de P 4 e E 2 . Houve diferença significativa nas concentrações plasmáticas de P 4 e E 2 entre os tratamentos. A sincronização de estro e ovulação, utilizando CIDR + 500 UI de eCG, incrementou a quantidade de folículos recrutados, além de aumentar o diâmetro máximo e a taxa de crescimento dos folículos grandes na primeira onda folicular.Palavras-chave: dinâmica folicular, estradiol (E 2 ), ovinos, progesterona (P 4 ), ultra-sonografia Endocrine and Ovarian Response Associated with the First-Wave Follicle Dominant in Sheep Synchronized either CIDR or PGF 2αABSTRACT -The effect of prostaglandin (PGF 2 a) vs CIDR and eCG (equine chorionic gonadotrophin) on follicular dynamic of wave 1 and its relation with P 4 and E 2 plasma concentrations were investigated in cyclic ewes. Fourteen Bergamascia ewes were used, Group 1 (G1) synchronized by two i.m. injections of PGF 2α and Group 2 (G2) treated for 14 d with CIDR and 500 IU of eCG at dispositive withdrawal on day 14. Ovarian follicular dynamics were ultrasonically monitored. All the ovarian follicles ≥ 2 mm were measured, and their relative locations were recorded on an ovarian map in order to follow the sequential development of each individual follicle. Blood samples for P 4 and E 2 determination were collected daily from 1 d before the second injection of PGF 2α (G1) and administration of eCG (G2) until day 10 after ovulation of the cycle. There were significant differences in P 4 and E 2 plasma concentrations between treatments. The CIDR + eCG (500 IU) treatment enhanced the recruitment of smaller follicles and enhanced the maximum diameter and growth rate of large follicles during wave 1.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
