Four micrograms of total RNA from endometrial, chorioallantoic, and
conceptus tissues were treated with DNase I (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) and reverse transcribed using SuperScript II Reverse Transcriptase (Invitrogen, USA) to obtain cDNAs.
This tragedy resulted in two deaths, the mother and the
conceptus, and four orphans.
Fate of
conceptus and corpus luteum after induced embryonic loss in heifers.
The equine
conceptus growth profile during early gestation was studied by GINTHER (1995), who produced a detailed description of embryonic and fetal growth from days nine to 45 after ovulation by using B-mode ultrasonography.
[34] claim that LPA amongst other factors in the uterus may be involved in the elongation of the
conceptus during the peri-implantation period in the sheep as well as in mediating the cellular differentiation required for ovine embryo implantation.
For simplicity, we will refer to the
conceptus as the fetus.
According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, exposure of less than 5 rad or 50 mGy does not appear to be associated with an appreciable increased rate of foetal anomalies or pregnancy loss.14 Epidemiologic and observational studies have shown a threshold
conceptus dose of 100-200 mGy leading to these complications15,16 and the ERCP requires substantially less dose, particularly when the foetus is away from the primary beam.17-19 As per Tham et al,20 we also tried to reduce the radiation dose by limiting fluoroscopy time, shielding the pelvis with lead and avoiding hard copy radiographs, acquiring equally good results.
