Dinâmica folicular ovariana em ovelhas Santa Inês portadoras do polimorfismo FecGe do gene GDF-9

Passos, Halley Schuch 18 July 2014 (has links)
This study aimed the study of ovarian follicular dynamics in a interovulatory period in nulliparous Santa Ines sheep carrying the polymorphism FecGE. Were used 21 sheep that previously genotyped for FecGE polymorphism by PCR-RFLP. The animals were divided into three groups (n = 7 / group) according to the genotype mutation: WW - non-mutant wild; EW . heterozygote and EE - homozygous. Follicular dynamics were monitored by ultrasound within a period interovulatory. The capture and measurement of the ovaries images were made every 24 hours until detection of estrus, being adjusted to every 12 hours until ovulation. It was found that 15 animals (71.42%) showed the emergence of three waves and six (28.58%) had four follicular waves. Don ft were influence of genotype on the selection, follicles . 2 and . 4 mm, (2,8 } 0,7) and follicular dominance, follicles > 5 mm, (0,9 } 0,1), the interovulatory period (17,5 } 0,2) and the duration of estrus (38,11 } 0,9). The largest number of ovulations was observed in homozygous sheep (2.4 } 0.2) compared to the wild type (1.7 } 0.2), however, heterozygous presenting intermediate value (1.9 } 0.1) but not differ from the others. Despite genetic groups did as not differ to the interval between the onset of estrus and ovulation (25,34 } 1,8), high individual variation was observed among sheep within each genotype. Santa Ines sheep that carriers the polymorphism FecGE express some differences in ovarian follicular dynamics in relation to non-mutants, being represented mainly by the largest number of ovulations in homozygous genetic group. / Este trabalho teve por objetivo o estudo da dinamica folicular ovariana do periodo interovulatorio em ovelhas nuliparas da raca Santa Ines portadoras do polimorfismo FecGE. Foram utilizadas 21 ovelhas previamente genotipadas para o polimorfismo FecGE por PCR-RFLP. Os animais foram divididos em tres grupos (n=7/grupo) de acordo com o genotipo relacionado a mutacao como segue: WW - selvagem nao mutante; EW - heterozigoto e; EE - homozigoto. A dinamica folicular foi acompanhada por ultrassom dentro de um periodo interovulatorio. A captura e mensuracao das imagens dos ovarios foram feitas a cada 24 horas ate a deteccao do estro, sendo ajustadas para cada 12 horas ate a ovulacao. Foi verificado que 15 animais (71,42%) apresentaram a emergencia de tres ondas e seis (28,58%) apresentaram quatro ondas de crescimento folicular. Nao houve influencia do genotipo sobre o numero de foliculos selecionados, . 2 e . 4 mm, (2,8 } 0,7) e dominantes, >5 mm, (0,9 } 0,1), o periodo interovulatorio (17,5 } 0,2) e, a duracao do estro (38,11 } 0,9). O maior numero de ovulacoes foi observado nas ovelhas homozigotas (2,4 } 0,2) em relacao as do tipo selvagem (1,7 } 0,2) sendo as heterozigotas apresentando valor intermediario (1,9 } 0,1), porem nao diferindo dos demais. Apesar dos grupos geneticos nao diferirem quanto ao intervalo entre o inicio do estro e a ovulacao (25,34 } 1,8 h), foi verificada alta variacao individual entre as ovelhas dentro de cada genotipo. Ovelhas nuliparas Santa Ines portadoras do polimorfismo FecGE expressam diferencas no tempo de sobrevivencia folicular e no diametro do foliculo ovulatorio em relacao as nao mutantes, sendo que o grupo genetico homozigoto apresenta um maior numero de ovulacoes.
