In older mares, increasing collagen fibers (fibrosis) in the endometrium and oviduct
predisposes to sub-fertility and infertility. In this study, (i) gene transcription of collagen (qPCR: …

Simple Summary In the mare, endometrosis is a disease characterized by excessive collagen
fibers deposition in the endometrium (uterus inner layer), which is responsible for infertility. …

Inflammation and fibroproliferative diseases may be modulated by epigenetic changes.
Therefore, we suggest that epigenetic mechanisms could be involved in equine endometrosis …

Simple Summary Endometrosis is a major cause of infertility in mares and involves the
excessive deposition of extracellular matrix in the mare’s endometrium, such as collagen and α …

Endometrium type I (COL1) and III (COL3) collagen accumulation, periglandular fibrosis and
mare infertility characterize endometrosis. Metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), MMP-9 and tissue …

Endometrosis is a major cause of infertility in mares and involves the excessive deposition of
extracellular matrix (ECM) in the mare's endometrium, such as collagen type I (COL1), and …

Endometrial chronic degenerative fibrosis in mares, known as endometrosis is detrimental to
fertility. Endometrium type I (COL1) and III (COL3) collagen accumulation and periglandular …

Placental plasticity influences fetal development, pregnancy success, and foal growth. Older
fertile mares deliver heavier foals and placentas, with increased collagen deposition. In …

O tema foi escolhido devido à utilização cada vez maior de sémen congelado na clínica
equina e da necessidade de se reduzir a quantidade de sémen utilizado devido ao seu custo e …
