The aim of this project is to identify components of the insulin signaling pathway involved in glucose uptake and steroidogenesis according to 17²-estradiol ( E2 ) cyclical variations in the canine cyclic and gestational corpus luteum (CL) and in the bovine cyclic CL, treated or not with eCG. For that, in experiment (exp.) 1, 16 cows (Bos taurus) will be synchronized and treated with prop…
The mechanism of stress is already known and has two stages: acute stress releasing factors and chronic inflammatory and thermogenic seeking suppression of the inflammatory reaction. Abandoned dogs go through this experience sometimes in a traumatic way. When these dogs are housed in shelters, they also undergo a period of adaptation, nevertheless there is no established re-socialization…
The corpus luteum (CL) is a temporary endocrine gland, which goes trought different developmental phases: formation, maintenance and regression and reaches full secretory capacity when formation is complete. Steroidogenic profile differs over diestrus : progesterone (P4) is markedly elevated in the formation period; decreasing P4 and increasing 17b-estradiol (E2) are observed during maint…

Disturbances in the secretion of hormones produced by the adrenal cortex lead to the most varied systemic disorders. The most well known of these, hyperadrenocorticism (HAC), affects both humans and a significant portion of dogs. In this context, a deep knowledge of the adrenal physiology and possible interferences in the production of its hormones is necessary. The present project aims t…
The aim of this project is to identify components of the insulin signaling pathway involved in glucose uptake and steroidogenesis according to 17²-estradiol ( E2 ) cyclical variations in the canine cyclic and gestational corpus luteum (CL) and in the bovine cyclic CL, treated or not with eCG. For that, in Experiment 1, 24 heifers (Bos taurus) will be synchronized and treated with propilen…
In previous studies it was shown that luteinic cells respond to insulin stimulation by increasing glucose intake as well as in adipose and muscular cells. The present study aims to analyze cortisol (stress-related hormone) influence on luteinic cells response when stimulated by insulin. For this, we will characterize the gene expression in cells treated or not treated with cortisol. We hy…

Metabolic problems as insulin resistance and incapacity of maintaining normoglycaemia are frequent reported problems associated to women estrous cycle. In humans, luteal phase of estrous cycle lasts 14 days, in which plasma 17²-estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P4) levels fluctuate concomitantly. Estrous cycle in the bitch differs from other domestic species and from humans as well. Nevert…
