Abstract

Postpartum uterine infection reduces fertility in dairy cattle; however, the mechanisms of uterine infection‐mediated infertility are unknown. Paradoxically, infection‐induced infertility persists after the resolution of disease. Oocytes are a finite resource, which are present at various stages of...

Interferon, HMGB1, ILK, IL&#x2010;6, and TGF&#x2010;beta signaling pathways were downregulated in oocytes collected at Day 4 from bacteria&#x2010;infused heifers, while interferon, ILK, and IL&#x2010;6 signaling were upregulated in oocytes collected at Day 60 from bacteria&#x2010;infused heifers. These data suggest that bacterial infusion alters the oocyte transcriptome differently at Day 4 and Day 60, suggesting different follicle stages are susceptible to damage.
