In Vitro Lethality of Fenbendazole to the Eyeworm .

is a heteroxenous nematode that infects the harderian gland and other ocular tissues in birds. High-intensity infections often cause damage to the infected tissues. Due to the nature of the infection sites, treatment of in these hosts can be difficult.

Effects of breed, feeding system, and lactation stage on milk fat characteristics and spontaneous lipolysis in dairy cows.

Spontaneous lipolysis (SL) is an enzymatic reaction that leads to a release of fatty acids that can modify technological and sensory properties of milk and milk products. However, few studies have been done to assess the effect of feeding systems (FS) and breed on SL. Most of them were conducted in the 1980s and are not fully representative of cattle today.

Differential expression of steroidogenic enzymes according to endometriosis type.

Objective: To evaluate, in peritoneal, ovarian, and rectovaginal endometriotic lesions, expression of steroidogenic enzymes involved in the activation and inactivation of estrogens: 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (HSD17B1) and 2 (HSD17B2), estrone sulfotransferase (EST), and steroid sulfatase (STS).

Setting: Academic gynecology research unit.

Design: Retrospective study.

Nerve fiber density in deep nodular endometriotic lesions induced in a baboon experimental model.

Objective: To study the occurrence of nerve fibers in deep nodular endometriotic lesions after nodules were induced in baboons and nerve fiber densities measured 6 months after the grafting procedure.

Design: Experimental animal study.

Setting: Academic gynecology research unit.

Induction of endometriotic nodules in an experimental baboon model mimicking human deep nodular lesions.

Objective: To establish an experimental model for the study of deep nodular endometriosis.

Design: Induction of nodular endometriosis in baboons by grafting different uterine specimens to the peritoneal cavity.

Setting: Research and university facilities.
