The objective was to determine luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion and follicular dynamics in cattle following administration of 3 gonadorelin formulations that are commercially available in Canada. In experiment 1, nonlactating Holstein cows (n = 4 per group) were randomly assigned to receive 100 micrograms gonadorelin diacetate tetrahydrate, intramuscularly (C; Cystorelin, or FE; Fertagyl). Blood samples (for LH analysis) were collected 0, 1, 2, and 4 hours after treatment. In experiment 2, nonlactating Holstein cows (n = 10 per group) were randomly allocated to receive 100 micrograms gonadorelin, intramuscularly as follows: 2 mL of C; 1 mL of FE; or 2 mL of Factrel (FA, gonadorelin hydrochloride). Gonadorelin treatment was done on days 6 or 7 after ovulation and blood samples for LH analysis were collected at 0, 1, 2, 4, and 6 hours after treatment. Ovaries were examined by ultrasonography, twice daily, to detect ovulation. A replicate was conducted using only C (n = 10) or FE (n = 10); blood samples were collected at 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours. In experiment 3, beef heifers (n = 10 per group) were randomly assigned to receive 1 of 3 GnRH gonadorelin treatments (as in the first phase of experiment 2) on days 6 or 7 after ovulation and blood samples were collected at 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, and 4 hours. In experiments 2 and 3, both mean and mean peak plasma LH concentrations were higher (P < 0.05) in cattle treated with C. The proportion of dominant follicles that ovulated was higher (P < 0.02) in Holstein cows treated with C than in those treated with FE or FA (18/19, 11/19, and 4/7, respectively), but there was no significant difference among the products in beef heifers (6/10, 6/10, and 4/10, respectively). No significant differences were found in the interval from treatment to the emergence of the next follicular wave. In summary, C induced a greater LH release and this resulted in a higher ovulatory rate in Holstein cows but not in beef heifers.
目的是确定在加拿大市售的3种促性腺激素释放激素制剂给药后牛的促黄体生成素(LH)分泌和卵泡动态。在实验1中,将非泌乳荷斯坦奶牛(每组n = 4头)随机分配接受100微克二乙酸四水合促性腺激素释放激素,肌肉注射(C组;Cystorelin,或FE组;Fertagyl)。在处理后0、1、2和4小时采集血样(用于LH分析)。在实验2中,将非泌乳荷斯坦奶牛(每组n = 10头)随机分配接受100微克促性腺激素释放激素,肌肉注射如下:2毫升C组制剂;1毫升FE组制剂;或2毫升Factrel(FA组,盐酸促性腺激素释放激素)。在排卵后第6或7天进行促性腺激素释放激素处理,并在处理后0、1、2、4和6小时采集血样用于LH分析。每天两次通过超声检查卵巢以检测排卵。仅使用C组(n = 10)或FE组(n = 10)进行重复实验;在0、1、2、3和4小时采集血样。在实验3中,将肉用小母牛(每组n = 10头)随机分配在排卵后第6或7天接受3种促性腺激素释放激素(GnRH)处理中的1种(如实验2的第一阶段),并在0、0.5、1、1.5、2和4小时采集血样。在实验2和3中,用C组制剂处理的牛的平均和平均峰值血浆LH浓度均较高(P < 0.05)。用C组制剂处理的荷斯坦奶牛中排卵的优势卵泡比例高于用FE组或FA组处理的奶牛(分别为18/19、11/19和4/7)(P < 0.02),但在肉用小母牛中各产品之间无显著差异(分别为6/10、6/10和4/10)。在从处理到下一个卵泡波出现的间隔时间上未发现显著差异。总之,C组制剂诱导了更大的LH释放,这导致荷斯坦奶牛的排卵率更高,但在肉用小母牛中并非如此。
