Fan W, Homma M, Xu R, Kunii H, Bai H, Kawahara M, et al.
Biochem Biophys Res Commun . 2021 Sep; 577:116-123. PMID: 34509723
The zona pellucida (ZP) plays an important role in both the fertilization and embryonic development. For the successful handling of early stage blastomeres for differentiation analysis, the production of identical...

Biol Reprod . 2021 Jul; 105(5):1114-1125. PMID: 34296252
Heat stress adversely affects the reproductive function in cows. Although a relationship between heat stress and oxidative stress has been suggested, it has not been sufficiently verified in bovine endometrial...

Kunii H, Kubo T, Asaoka N, Balboula A, Hamaguchi Y, Shimasaki T, et al.
Biochem Biophys Res Commun . 2021 Jul; 569:179-186. PMID: 34252590
An early and accurate pregnancy diagnosis method is required to improve the reproductive performance of cows. Here we developed an easy pregnancy detection method using vaginal mucosal membrane (VMM) with...

J Reprod Dev . 2019 May; 65(4):313-318. PMID: 31061297
Calving is a critical but stressful event required for milk production in dairy cows. In the present study, we investigated the immune status of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated...

Kunii H, Koyama K, Ito T, Suzuki T, Balboula A, Shirozu T, et al.
J Dairy Sci . 2018 Jun; 101(9):8396-8400. PMID: 29935833
In ruminants, IFN-tau (IFNT) is a pregnancy recognition signal secreted by the embryonic trophectoderm before implantation, and it induces the expression of IFN-stimulated genes (ISG) in the uterine endometrium and...

Reproduction . 2018 Apr; 155(6):515-528. PMID: 29626104
In ruminants, interferon-tau (IFNT)mediated expression of interferon-stimulated genes in peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs) can indicate pregnancy. Recently, type 1 IFN-mediated activation of lysosomes and lysosomal cathepsins (CTSs) was observed in...
