Dual effect of hormones on mare reproductive physiology and dysfunction

Abstract: Summary: In the last decades, classical and molecular biology approaches have greatly contributed for building up sound knowledge on the mechanisms regulating reproductive processes in the mare. Different perspectives on the role of hormones should be addressed and thus considered by both researchers and clinicians. While oxytocin is largely used as a post-insemination method to improve fertility or prevent endometritis, it may also be considered to prolong the luteal phase. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), known to s… Show more

“…The pro‐fibrotic role ascribed to PGF 2α in lung (Olman, ), and in mare endometrium (Rebordão et al., ) was also detected in the present work. In FP, this effect was reduced by sivelestat, which was able to inhibit both COL1 transcription and pro‐fibrotic PGF 2α production.…”

“…In lungs, an anti‐fibrotic effect of PGE 2 has been described (Bozyk & Moore, ), as well as in mare endometrium (Rebordão et al., ). Sivelestat increased PGE 2 and lowered COL1 transcripts in FP endometrium.…”

“…In the mare, it has been long recognized the luteolytic physiological role of PGF 2α on a well-established corpus luteum. However, to the best of our knowledge no in vivo evidence of PGF 2α fibrogenic pathological effect has been reported in mare endometrium [ 68 ]. While multiple low doses of PGF 2α in early luteal phase (ELP) have antiluteogenic effects, a single dose of PGF 2α can interrupt luteal function in the MLP [ 69 ].…”
