Investigating Polymorphisms and Expression Profile of Immune, Antioxidant, and Erythritol-Related Genes for Limiting Postparturient Endometritis in Holstein Cattle

This study looked at genetic polymorphisms and transcript levels of immune, antioxidant, and erythritol-related markers for postparturient endometritis prediction and tracking in Holstein dairy cows. One hundred and thirty female dairy cows (65 endometritis affected and 65 apparently healthy) were u...

description This study looked at genetic polymorphisms and transcript levels of immune, antioxidant, and erythritol-related markers for postparturient endometritis prediction and tracking in Holstein dairy cows. One hundred and thirty female dairy cows (65 endometritis affected and 65 apparently healthy) were used. Nucleotide sequence variations between healthy and endometritis-affected cows were revealed using PCR-DNA sequencing for immune (<i>TLR4</i>, <i>TLR7</i>, <i>TNF-α</i>, <i>IL10</i>, <i>NCF4</i>, and <i>LITAF</i>), antioxidant (<i>ATOX1</i>, <i>GST</i>, and <i>OXSR1</i>), and erythritol-related (<i>TKT</i>, <i>RPIA</i>, and <i>AMPD1</i>) genes. Chi-square investigation exposed a noteworthy variance amongst cow groups with and without endometritis in likelihood of dispersal of all distinguished nucleotide variants (<i>p</i> < 0.05). The <i>IL10</i>, <i>ATOX1</i>, and <i>GST</i> genes were expressed at substantially lower levels in endometritis-affected cows. Gene expression levels were considerably higher in endometritis-affected cows than in resistant ones for the genes <i>TLR4</i>, <i>TLR7</i>, <i>TNF-α</i>, <i>NCF4</i>, <i>LITAF</i>, <i>OXSR1</i>, <i>TKT</i>, <i>RPIA</i>, and <i>AMPD1</i>. The sort of marker and vulnerability or resistance to endometritis had a significant impact on the transcript levels of the studied indicators. The outcomes might confirm the importance of nucleotide variants along with gene expression patterns as markers of postparturient endometritis susceptibility/resistance and provide a workable control plan for Holstein dairy cows.
