The incidence of the ovarian follicular cyst is close related to reproductive failure in dairy cattle. Effective treatment of this disease<br />
promotes the regression of this structure, the development of the corpus luteum and hastens the return of the normal ovarian cyclic activity. The<br />
benedict effect of the association between prostaglandin analogous and GnRH on treatment of the luteinized cystic structures has been reported.<br />
The study was designed to evaluate the Fertirelin acetate associated or not with cloprostenol on ovarian cyst treatments in dairy cattle. Hundredthirty-six<br />
Holstein cows with follicular cyst provided from four different were included for this purpose. Follicular cysts were detected by linear<br />
array 7.0 MHz probe (Esaote-Falco) by transrectal examination of the ovarian. Circular anechoic structures larger than 20 mm of the diameter<br />
without detecting luteal tissue were considered as follicular cysts. The animals were randomized in one of the five groups according to the drug<br />
injection: 2 mL of saline (Group 1; n = 16); 0.1mg of the Fertirelin acetate - Fertigen ® Schering Plough-Brazil (Group 2; n = 31); 0.1mg of the<br />
Fertirelin acetate and 0.530 mg of the Sodium Cloprostenol 10 days later - Ciosin ® Schering Plough-Brazil (Group 3; n = 28); 0.1mg of the<br />
Fertirelin acetate and 0.530 mg of the Sodium Cloprostenol at the same time (Group 4; n = 29); and 0.1mg of the Fertirelin acetate and two doses<br />
of the Sodium Cloprostenol, the first at the same time of the Fertirelin and the second 10 days later (Group 5; n = 32). All treated cows were<br />
reexamined by transrectal ultrasonography between 20 and 30 days after treatment. The therapy was considered efficient when the cystic<br />
structure was not present and the luteal tissue was detected at the second ultrasound examination. The percentage of recover after treatment was<br />
18.8c, 54.8b, 53.5b, 79.3a, 81.2%a for groups 1 to 5, respectively. The interval from treatment to first artificial insemination (AI) was<br />
61.2±17.9a, 44.5±16.4b, 30.9±12.6c, 26.2±14.2c, 18.3±10.2d days for groups 1 to 5, respectively. There was no effect of the farm and the<br />
number of AI per conception was similar among treatments. The interpretation of these results is that the association between Fertirelin and<br />
cloprostenol in two different protocols was efficient to promote luteolysis and to hasten the return to the reproductive activity after treatment.<br />

It is important to know the profile of gene expression, as well as suitable reference genes for normalization of data from real-time<br />
PCR (qRT-PCR) as internal controls. However, the expression of mRNA for the IGF system in secondary and early antral follicles in the bovine<br />
is not yet known. The aim of this study was to investigate the stability of seven reference genes, and the relative expression of IGF-I and II, the<br />
receptors of IGF-I and II (IGFR-I and-II) and IGF proteins (IGFBPs 1- 6) in bovine follicles before and after culture in vitro. In order to evaluate<br />
the stability of reference genes and the expression levels of IGF system, follicles with ~ 0.2 (n = 30), ~ 0.5 (n = 30) and ~ 1.0 mm (n = 30) were<br />
micro-dissected and then subjected to total RNA extraction and cDNA synthesis. GeNorm software was used to evaluate the stability of<br />
Glyceraldehyde-3 phosphatedehydrogenase (GAPDH), β-tubulin, β-actin, Fosfogliceroquinase, 18S rRNA, Ubiquitin(UBQ) and ribosomal<br />
protein-19 (RPL-19). To compare the levels of mRNA of IGF system before and after in vitro culture, secondary follicles of ~ 0.2 mm (n = 24)<br />
were isolated and cultured for 12 days to reach ~ 0.5 mm. These follicles were subjected to total RNA extraction and cDNA synthesis. The deltadelta<br />
CT method was used to normalize the data of mRNA expression. The nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test was used to analyze mRNA levels<br />
for components of the IGF system (P < 0.05). The results demonstrated that GAPDH and UBQ were the most stable reference genes in preantral<br />
and antral bovine follicles. The levels of mRNA for IGFR-I and IGFR-II in follicles of 0.5 mm were significantly higher than in follicles of 0.2<br />
and 1.0 mm. A reduction in the levels of IGFBP-1 was observed during growth of the follicles. The levels of IGFBP-2 in follicles of 0.5 mm<br />
were significantly higher than in follicles of 1.0 mm. In contrast, 1.0 mm follicles showed higher levels of IGFBP-3 and IGFBP-4 than follicles<br />
of 0.2 and 0.5 mm. After in vitro culture, we observed significant reductions in levels of IGF-I, IGFR-I, IGFBP-3, -5 and -6 compared with noncultured<br />
follicles with ~ 0.2 mm. Comparing the 0.5 mm follicles grown in vitro with in vivo, the expression of IGFBP-1, -2, -3 e -6 were<br />
significantly lower in follicles cultured. Thus, we conclude that the UBQ and GAPDH are the most stable reference genes in bovine follicles with<br />
0.2, 0.5 and 1.0 mm, while the IGF-I and II, their receptors (IGFR-I and IGFR-II) and IGFBPs 1-6 show variable expression in follicular<br />
categories analyzed.<br />
