Popis: | During the summer season, high ambient temperature in tropical and subtropical countries exposes buffaloes to oxidative stress that have antigonadotropic and antisteroidogenic effects. Uses of hormonal therapy can improve the state of ovarian inactivity caused by heat stress and cause anoestrous buffaloes to come into oestrus and successfully achieve pregnancy. Therefore, this study was designed to detect the role of oxidative stress in production of the anoestrous state in summer heat stressed buffaloes and the effects of treatment by Controlled internal drug release (CIDR) in solving of this problem. Also it monitored the changes in Oxidant/antioxidant biomarkers and mineral profile before and after the treatment. Forty buffaloes with no signs of oestrus for more than 120 days after calving were selected. The animals were divided into two groups: the first group (group I, n = 25) was subjected to treatment with CIDR, while the second group (group II) received no treatment and was considered the control group (n = 25). Blood samples were collected before treatment, after treatment and after 45 days of oestrus. The serum level of TAC, MDA, NO, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), P, Cu and Zn were measured. The results showed that 80% of treated buffaloes came into oestrus. The conception rate was 75%. TAC concentrations were significantly higher in group I than in group II. There were significant decreases in the mean values of MDA, NO and ascorbic acid in the buffaloes in oestrus, but these values increased when the buffaloes became pregnant. In contrast there were no significant differences in the mean values of MDA, NO or ascorbic acid in the buffaloes that came into oestrus but failed to conceive. The mean serum P, Cu and Zn values were significantly increased (P 0.05) in the buffaloes that came into oestrus compared to the control animals. The levels of P and Zn significantly increased when the buffaloes became pregnant and remained unchanged when they failed to conceive. In conclusion, known physiological and pathological variations in the oxidant/antioxidant parameters and mineral profile of summer anoestrous buffaloes may help to understand this problem of infertility. |
