Role of growth hormone in development and maintenance of follicles and corpora lutea

Lucy MC , Bilby CR , Kirby CJ , Yuan W , Boyd CK

Growth hormone (GH) is a pituitary hormone that affects animal growth, metabolism, lactation, and reproduction. Many of the effects of GH are mediated by insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) which is synthesized in liver and ovary in response to GH. Insulin-like growth factor I synergizes with gonadotrophins (LH and FSH) to stimulate growth and differentiation of ovarian cells. There are species differences in the effects of GH in reproductive biology. In most species, ovarian...

Editorial: Reproduction in Domestic Ruminants

Webb R

As stated in the first Proceedings, the economically important domestic species have been the subject of ongoing reproductive research over many decades. The aims of researchers and clinicians have been directed at increasing fecundity and fertility, to manipulate reproduction for simpler management, to increase the genetic influence of selected individuals and importantly to improve animal welfare. A group of international researchers initiated the first symposium in Australi...
