Purpose: Cloprostenol sodium salt (referred as cloprostenol) may be used for the synchronization of estrous cycles in farm animal species. Cyclodextrins (CDs) have potential as drug delivery systems through the formation of inclusion complexes between CDs and drugs. This is the first study of the inclusion complex of cloprostenol with beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) in aqueous solution using NMR and 3D molecular dynamics simulations.
Methods: 1D proton NMR spectra of beta-CD, a complex of cloprostenol with beta-CD, and cloprostenol in D(2)O were assigned and confirmed. The cross relaxation interactions from ROESY were used as constraints for 3D molecular modeling studies.
Results: In the 2D ROESY of the complex, cross-peaks were observed between the aromatic protons of cloprostenol and protons of the beta-CD as well as between aliphatic protons and protons of the beta-CD. The stoichiometry of the complex was found that beta-CD forms a 1:1 inclusion complex with cloprostenol. The association constant K was 968 +/- 120 M(-1) at 298 K.
Conclusions: Aromatic side and/or aliphatic side chains of the cloprostenol is included in the beta-CD while aliphatic side and/or aromatic side chains wraps around beta-CD, respectively. The molecular modeling also confirms that beta-CD forms a 1:1 inclusion complex with cloprostenol.

Follicular wave synchronization (FWS) before ovum pick-up (OPU) is one of the strategies used to improve the efficiency of in vitro embryo production (IVP). This study aimed to evaluate the effect of FWS on the total follicular number, cumulus-oocyte complex (COC) recovery, and in vitro embryo development in Angus cows (n = 33) subjected to OPU with 14-day intersession intervals. Additionally, it was also evaluated the presence of carryover effects given the short intersession interval used.

Conventional induction protocol (CIP) of calving in buffaloes employs the intramuscular (IM) administration of dexamethasone (40 mg) and cloprostenol sodium (500 μg). If there is no progression in terms of cervical dilatation, then a second dose of cloprostenol sodium (500 μg) is administered intramuscularly. This protocol possesses certain demerits: (1) a wide range of response time intervals, and (2) increased risk of fetal membrane retention.

Monitoring the treatment outcome of canine cystic endometrial hyperplasia-pyometra complex (CEH-P) is essential to identify nonresponding patients who might require a rapid intervention to avoid life-threatening conditions. Uterine artery Doppler characterization may contribute to monitoring medically treated CEH-P, but published studies are currently lacking. Therefore, the aim of this longitudinal prospective observational study was to evaluate uterine artery resistance changes in the medical treatment of female dogs with CEH-P.

Information on the follicular population and oocyte quality of cows in the final period of reproductive life is scarce. The present study aimed to compare the antral follicle count (AFC), oocyte production and embryonic developmental competence of young versus long-lived and senescent Bos indicus beef cows. Nellore cows (Bos indicus) were classified into three groups according to age: young (4-9 years, n = 10), long-lived (14-17 years, n = 10) and senescent (17-23 years, n = 10).

Development of efficient and stereoselective synthesis of prostaglandins (PGs) is of utmost importance, owing to their valuable medicinal applications and unique chemical structures. We report here a unified synthesis of PGs cloprostenol, bimatoprost, PGF, fluprostenol, and travoprost from the readily available dichloro-containing bicyclic ketone guided by biocatalytic retrosynthesis, in 11-12 steps with 3.8-8.
