Acute phase responses in clinically healthy multiparous Holsteins with and without calcium dysregulation during the early postpartum period by J.A. Seminara, C.R. Seely, J.A.A. McArt

“…The acute phase response produces markers and mediators of inflammation; therefore, the objective of our case-control study was to evaluate postpartum patterns of 3 positive acute phase proteins in cows with and without dyscalcemia. We hypothesized that dyscalcemic cows would experience more activated inflammation than eucalcemic cows and that inflammation would precede dyscalcemia diagnosis. …”

Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate reduces sperm motility by decreasing sperm tail energy supply by Xiao-lu Li, Qi-meng Li, Yuan-zhuo Zheng, Die Hu, Xiao-yue Cai, Ke Yin, Yin-yin Qi, Zi yu Cheng, Xia Ning, Yang Cai, Wei Wu, Ting-yuan Lin, Tao Xu, Ling-li Zhao

“…However, few studies have focused on the sperm tail that is directly related to sperm motility. In this study, we demonstrate that DEHP impedes the conversion of riboflavin in the mitochondrial sheath in the midsection of the sperm tail, resulting in reduced ATP (adenosine triphosphate) synthesis, thereby inhibiting sperm motility. …”
