Abstract:Although hormonal induction of parturition in cattle results in the successful delivery of healthy calves, the risk of retained fetal membrane is significantly increased. In a previous
study, a combination of the long-acting glucocorticoid, triamcinolone acetonide, with a high dose of betamethasone partially normalized the placentomal gene expression during parturition;
however, the incidence of retained fetal membrane remained high. This study further explored placentomal dysfunction and aimed to elucidate th… Show more
