Journal ArticleDOI

Abnormal expression of trophoblast major histocompatibility complex class I antigens in cloned bovine pregnancies is associated with a pronounced endometrial lymphocytic response.

TL;DR: A role for immunologic rejection in the syndrome of early embryonic loss in cloned bovine pregnancies is supported, and trophoblast MHC-I expression is likely to have induced a maternal lymphocytic response that would be detrimental to maintaining viability of the cloned pregnancy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linkage relationships in the bovine MHC region. High recombination frequency between class II subregions.

TL;DR: The fairly high recombination frequency observed between class 11 genes in cattle is strikingly different from the corresponding recombination estimates in man and mouse.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cloning Adult Farm Animals: A Review of the Possibilities and Problems Associated with Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer

TL;DR: To date, adult sheep, goats, cattle, mice, pigs, cats and rabbits have been cloned using somatic cell nuclear transfer, and Dolly was the only live offspring produced after 277 attempts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of lymphocyte subpopulations and major histocompatibility complex haplotypes of mastitis-resistant and susceptible cows.

TL;DR: Analysis of lymphocyte subpopulations of mastitis-resistant and susceptible cows revealed that susceptible cows had CD4:CD8 ratios of less than one in both their mammary gland secretions and peripheral blood, raising the possibility that the number of DQ genes that a cow has and/or a cow's CD4-CD8 ratio could be used as indicators of susceptibility to bovine mastitis.
