چکیده

The objectives of this observational study were to document ovarian and endocrine responses associated with the treatment of cystic ovarian follicles (COFs) in dairy cows, using gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) and prostaglandin F2 (PGF) with or without exogenous progesterone. A secondary objective was to determine pregnancy establishment following synchronization of ovulation and timed insemination in cows diagnosed with COFs. In trial I, 18 Holstein cows diagnosed with COFs received 2 injections of 100 g GnRH, 9 d apart, with 25 mg PGF given 7 d after the 1st GnRH. A new follicle developed in all 18 cows after the 1st GnRH, and 83% of cows ovulated following the 2nd GnRH. Cows were inseminated 16 h after the 2nd GnRH. Of the 17 cows available for pregnancy diagnosis, 7 were confirmed pregnant. In trial II, 8 cows with COFs received GnRH and an intravaginal progesterone device (CIDR) concurrently, then PGF 7 d later. The CIDR was removed 2 d after PGF administration. Plasma estradiol concentrations declined following CIDR insertion. In all cows, a new follicle developed following GnRH treatment; estradiol-surge and estrus occurred spontaneously after CIDR-removal. Seven of 8 cows ovulated the new follicle. In dairy cows diagnosed with COFs, treatment with GnRH followed by PGF 7 d later, with or without exogenous progesterone, resulted in the recruitment of a healthy new follicle; synchronization of ovulation and timed insemination resulted in a 41% pregnancy rate. Résumé — Réponse ovarienne et endocrinienne associées au traitement des kystes folliculaires ovariens chez la vache laitière par la gonadolibérine et la prostaglandine F2, avec ou sans progestérone exogène. Les objectifs de cette étude étaient de vérifier les réponses ovarienne et endocrinienne à la suite du traitement de kystes folliculaires ovariens (KFO) chez des vaches laitières par la gonadoliberine (GnRH) et la prostaglandine F2, avec ou sans progestérone exogène. L’objectif secondaire était de déterminer la présence de gestation à la suite de la synchronisation de l’ovulation et de l’insémination programmée chez les vaches avec un diagnostic de KFO. Dans l’expérience 1, 18 vaches Holstein porteuses d’un diagnostic de KFO ont reçu 2 injections de 100 g de GnRH, à 9 jours d’intervalle, ainsi que 25 mg de PGF administrée 7 jours après la première injection de GnRH. Un nouveau follicule s’est développé chez chacune des 18 vaches après la première administration de GnRH et 83 % des vaches ont ovulé après la 2ième administration. Les vaches ont été inséminées 16 h après la 2ième administration de GnRH. Sur les 17 vaches disponibles pour le diagnostic de gestation, 7 ont été confirmées gestantes. Dans l’expérience II, 8 vaches avec KFO ont reçu simultanément de la GnRH ainsi qu’un dispositif intravaginal contenant de la progestérone (CIDR), puis de la PGF 7 jours plus tard. Le CIDR a été enlevé 2 jours après l’administration de PGF. Les concentrations plasmatiques d’estradiol ont décliné à la suite de l’insertion du CIRD. Chez toutes les vaches, un nouveau follicule s’est développé à la suite du traitement à la GnRH; une poussée d’estradiol ainsi que l’œstrus sont survenus spontanément après le retrait du CIDR. Sept des huit vaches ont ovulé à partir de ce nouveau follicule. Chez la vache laitière porteuse d’un diagnostic de KFO, le traitement par GnRH suivi de PGF 7 jours plus tard, avec ou sans progestérone exogène, assure le développement d’un nouveau follicule sain; la synchronisation de l’ovulation et l’insémination programmée ont produit un taux de gestation de 41 %.

Effects of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids on ovarian function and prostaglandin secretion in lactating dairy cows

As lactating cows in severe negative energy balance have poor reproductive performance, the effect of dietary fat supplementation (fish oil, soybean oil) on PGFM secretion, ovarian function and blood metabolites is investigated. In this experiment, the effects of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids on plasma metabolites, ovarian function and prostaglandin secretion of 20 primiparous Holstein co...

The Effect of Administering Equine Chorionic Gonadotropins (eCG) on Reproductive Performance of Dairy Cows with a CO-Synch + CIDR Protocol and Insemination at a Fixed Time

The success of a fixed-time artificial insemination (FTAI) program depends on a high ovulation rate during a short interval. Equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG) has been used in FTAI protocols to improve follicular growth and thereby to produce larger, more responsive follicles for ovulation with increased pregnancy rates. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of eCG on concept...

The effect of administration of gonadotropin releasing hormone analogue at estrus or during luteal phase on reproductive performance of dairy cows maintained under sub-temperate climate

Overall, 531 dairy cows were inseminated with the aim to study their reproductive performance following administration of GnRH analogue on different days of estrous cycle with different doses. These cows were divided into six treatment and one control group. Depending upon different treatment groups, Buserelin acetate was injected at a dose of 10.5 µg or 21.0 µg on different days (0, 5 or 12) o...

Postpartum anestrous is one of the most important problems in the dairy industry in the world and especially in Iran. The objective of present study was to compare the efficacy of two hormonal programs for recycling of postpartum anestrous cows. For this reason, 230 Holstein cows from 4 similar dairy herds (with totally 2560 cow and unique management and feeding system) located on the suburb of...
