In this episode, Dr. Larry Roth reviews research on the impact of inflammatory diseases on fertility in cattle, focusing on studies from Eduardo S. Ribeiro and Murilo R. Carvalho of the University of Guelph. We will dig into how unresolved inflammation affects every stage of the reproductive cycle—from oocyte development and embryo implantation to the growth of the embryo and calf.

We will break down key findings including the crucial role of the often-overlooked uterine environment in successful pregnancies, the effects of inflammation on developmental biology in postnatal life, and the influence of prenatal inflammation on gene expression in future generations. Discover the dramatic effects of prenatal inflammation on gene suppression, which can impact the health of both the calf and its offspring.

Listen to this comprehensive review that connects research with practical applications to enhance cattle reproductive health and overall well-being. Contact Agrarian to learn how our experts can help you protect your cows from the damaging effects of inflammation. Contact us.
