Ratto M, Paiva L, Carrasco R, Silva M, Ulloa-Leal C, Ratto V, et al.
Animal . 2023 Aug; 17 Suppl 1:100754. PMID: 37567661
The actions of the beta-nerve growth factor (β-NGF) on the neuroendocrine and reproductive system have challenged classical views on the control of reproductive function. After endometrial absorption, β-NGF triggers ovulation...

Gajardo G, Paiva L, Ulloa-Leal C, Valderrama X, Lopez G, Carrasco A, et al.
Animals (Basel) . 2023 Mar; 13(6). PMID: 36978545
The neurotrophin beta-nerve growth factor (NGF), which is present in the semen of different mammals, elicits potent ovulatory and luteotrophic actions in llamas following systemic administration. Here, we determine if...

Carrasco R, Pezo S, Zwiefelhofer E, Lanigan E, Singh J, Berland M, et al.
Reproduction . 2023 Feb; 165(4):395-405. PMID: 36757313
In Brief: Seminal nerve growth factor induces ovulation in camelids by influencing the secretion of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) into the portal vessels of the pituitary gland. We show that the...

Adams G, Ratto M, Carrasco R
Anim Reprod . 2022 Oct; 15(Suppl 1):996-1002. PMID: 36249856
The four species of New World camelids and 2 species of Old World camelids derived from a common ancestor in North America. The reproductive characteristics, particularly those involving ovarian function...

Landeo L, Zuniga M, Gastelu T, Artica M, Ruiz J, Silva M, et al.
Animals (Basel) . 2022 May; 12(9). PMID: 35565530
The morphological quality and the in vitro developmental competence of cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) collected from in vivo or slaughtered alpacas was compared. COCs were recovered from ovarian follicles using: (i)...

Barraza D, Sari L, Apichela S, Ratto M, Arganaraz M
Front Vet Sci . 2021 Feb; 7:583369. PMID: 33553274
One striking reproductive feature in South American camelids is that more than 90% of gestations are established in the left uterine horn (LUH). This phenomenon could be related to a...

Sari L, Zampini R, Gonzalez Del Pino F, Arganaraz M, Ratto M, Apichela S
Front Vet Sci . 2021 Jan; 7:610597. PMID: 33479599
To provide new insights into the mechanisms through which seminal plasma proteins can protect sperm from damage caused during refrigeration, we evaluate the possibility that β-NGF can contribute to the...

Ratto M, Urra F, Silva M
Front Vet Sci . 2020 Dec; 7:598117. PMID: 33335920
We determined if laterality of ovulation and intrauterine embryo location differentially induces changes in the mesometrial/endometrial vascularization area (MEVA) between uterine horns, during and after embryo migration, elongation and implantation...

Carrasco R, Singh J, Ratto M, Adams G
Biol Reprod . 2020 Dec; 104(3):578-588. PMID: 33331645
The objective of the study was to characterize the anatomical framework and sites of action of the nerve growth factor (NGF)-mediated ovulation-inducing system of llamas. The expression patterns of NGF...
