  Vidal, Ángela; Pineda, Carmen; Raya, Ana I.; Ríos, Rafael; Espartero, Azahara; Muñoz-Castañeda, Juan R.; Rodríguez, Mariano; Aguilera Tejero, Escolástico; López, Ignacio (MDPI, 2022)

  Increased dietary acid load has a negative impact on health, particularly when renal function is compromised. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone that is elevated during renal failure. The ...

• Characterization of the seminal bacterial microbiome of healthy, fertile stallions using next-generation sequencing 

  Quiñones-Pérez, Carlota; Hidalgo, Manuel; Ortiz, I.; Crespo Castejón, Francisco; Vega-Pla, J.L. (Colégio Brasileiro de Reprodução Animal, 2021)

  High-throughput sequencing studies have shown the important role microbial communities play in the male reproductive tract, indicating differences in the semen microbial composition between fertile and infertile males. ...

• The Semen Microbiome and Semen Parameters in Healthy Stallions 

  Quiñones-Pérez, Carlota; Martínez, Amparo; Ortiz, I.; Crespo Castejón, Francisco; Vega-Pla, J.L. (MDPI, 2022)

  Despite the advances in reproductive technology, there is still a considerable number of low sperm quality cases in stallions. Recent studies in humans have detected several seminal microflora–spermatozoa associations ...

• Hormonal Management for the Induction of Luteolysis and Ovulation in Andalusian Jennies: Effect on Reproductive Performance, Embryo Quality and Recovery Rate 

  Bottrel, M.; Ortiz, I.; Hidalgo, Manuel; Díaz-Jiménez, María; Pereira, Blasa; Consuegra, César; Samy Yousef, Mohamed; Dorado, Jesús (MDPI, 2022)

  Two prostanglandins (luprostiol, LUP, and dinoprost, DIN) and two ovulation-inducing agents (human Chorionic Gonadotropin, hCG, and deslorelin, DES) were evaluated for luteolysis and estrus induction, and for ovulation ...
