In order to verify alternative clinical approach in the reproductive evaluation of 4 adult dogs, the fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and serum testosterone levels were used together with testicular volume measurement and semen analysis. FNAC was performed in both testes and serum testosterone concentrations were assayed in regular intervals during a 24h period. Results of semen analysis and FNAC were normal in dogs 1 and 3. In dog 2, small testes, poor semen quality, a high percentage of Sertoli cells and early spermatids were found suggesting testicular degeneration. In dog 4, a small right testicle, poor semen quality with low sperm concentration and an uncounted amount of spermatozoa in the FNAC indicated testicular degeneration due to an... |

The aim of this study was to identify heparin-binding proteins (HBPs) in seminal plasma of Nellore (Bos taurus indicus) bulls. Bulls (n=4), 30-36 months old, 500-550kg with satisfactory seminal quality were selected. After the centrifugation, samples of the seminal plasma were pooled and the HBPs were isolated by heparin-affinity chromatography. The recovered HBPs fractions were pooled. One-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDSPAGE) 12.5% was performed in vertical minigels. Eight bands with molecular weights ranging from 15 to 63kDa were observed. Two proteins were identified (22 and 25kDa), similar to those previously described in Bos taurus taurus bulls. Other bands identified in this study (39, 53, 58 and 63kDa)... |

This study aimed to determine the effects of different concentrations of botulinum toxin type A (BT-A) on semen parameters, and seminal plasma biochemical and protein profiles of dogs with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Eighteen sexually intact male dogs with BPH were randomly divided in three groups, and received an intraprostatic injection of saline solution (control group - CG), 250UI (GI) or 500UI (GII) of BT-A under transabdominal ultrasound guidance. Semen was collected at baseline, 2, 4 and 8 weeks after treatment. Semen parameters were determined and seminal plasma pH, total protein (TP), total chlorides (TC), calcium (Ca), potassium (K), and sodium (Na) concentrations were assessed. One-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfatepolyacrilamide gel... |
