Elshymaa A. Abdelnaby et al.

Summary: Understanding the changes in reproductive hemodynamics during the estrous cycle is crucial for improving reproductive competence and fertility potential. This study investigated the hemodynamic variations in ovarian and uterine arteries, as well as the histological and morphometric changes in ovarian and uterine tissues in rabbits. Immunohistochemistry was used to determine the distribution of ER, PR, and VEGF-A. The results provide insights into the regulation of uterine functions that play a role in reproduction.

INRA82 extender enhances semen quality in ram under cooled and cryopreserved stages

Aya M. Fadl et al.

Summary: This study compared the effects of INRA82 extender with Tris-based extenders on the quality of ram semen preserved in cooled and frozen conditions. The results showed that ram semen diluted with INRA-82 exhibited improved seminal characteristics after cooling and thawing compared to those diluted with Tris-citrate glucose or Tris-citrate fructose. Therefore, INRA-82 can be successfully used as a suitable extender for preserving the viability and sustainability of cooled and cryopreserved ram semen.

Assessment of the accuracy of testicular dysfunction detection in male donkey (Equus asinus) with the aid of colour-spectral Doppler in relation to plasma testosterone and serum nitric oxide levels

Elshymaa A. Abdelnaby et al.

Summary: The study aimed to determine the usefulness of colour and pulsed Doppler modes for accurate diagnosis of subfertility in donkeys and to assess testicular vascularity as an indicator for sperm functionality. Results showed significant differences in semen parameters, blood flow, and Doppler indices between subfertile and normospermic donkeys, with subfertile animals demonstrating lower arterial vascularity parameters. Doppler indices and testicular blood flow rate were found to be optimal for differentiation.
