The aim of the present study was to evaluate ovarian and hormonal responses to the administration of metastin/kisspeptin analog, TAK-683, under the endocrine environments of luteal and follicular phases in goats. At 7–10 days after the confirmation of ovulation by ultrasonography, six goats received a prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) injection (Day 0) followed by 10 days of CIDR-G® treatment. PGF2α was injected agai...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate ovarian and hormonal responses to follicular phase administration of a metastin/kisspeptin analog, TAK-683, with a low dose, determined as the minimally effective dose for LH stimulation in ovariectomized goats. At 7–10 days after ovulation, goats received a prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) injection (day 0) followed by 10 days of CIDR-G® treatment. A PGF2α was injected a...
