Heat stress modulates polymorphonuclear cell response in early pregnancy cows: I. interferon pathway and oxidative stress.
One of the major causes of early pregnancy loss is heat stress. In ruminants, interferon tau (IFNT) is the embryo signal to the mother. Once the interferon signaling pathway is activated, it drives gene expression for interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) and alters neutrophils responses. The aim of th...
