The collection procedures were approved by the local institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Olsztyn, Poland (Agreement No. 5/2007 , 6/2007 and 88/2007) . Twenty-five healthy, normally cycling Polish Holstein black and white cows (control, n = 5; 2 h, n = 5; 4 h, n = 4; 12 h, n = 6; 24 h, n = 4) were used for collection of CL. These cows were multiparous and non-lactating. Oestrus was synchronised by two injections of 25 mg PGF2α (Dinoprost, Dinolytic; Pharmacia and Upjohn, Puurs, Belgium) at 11-day intervals according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ovulation was determined by a veterinarian via transrectal ultrasonography before the second injection. Cows were sedated by injection of xylazine hydrochloride (2% Selactar; Bayer, Leverkusen, Germany), followed by injection of a local anaesthetic (lidocaine hydrochloride; 2% Xylocaine; AstraZeneca, London, UK). Then, ovaries were collected by colpotomy using Hauptner's effeminator (Hauptner and Herberholz; Solingen, Germany; http://www.hauptner-herberholz.de, accessed 23rd April 2016) on Day 10 after ovulation before and after injection of a luteolytic dose (25 mg) of a PGF2α. CL tissues were dissected from the ovaries and then immediately stored at -80°C until processing for mRNA and protein analysis.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Imaging was conducted from both hemispheres. After completion of imaging from one hemisphere, the second craniotomy was started for the other hemisphere. Animals were initially anesthetized with a mixture of ketamine and xylazine (i.m., 80 mg/kg, Ketalar, Daiichi-Sankyo, and 25 mg/kg, Selactar, Bayer Yakuhin, respectively), placed under a measuring microscope in a soundproof room, and artificially ventilated after injection of the muscle relaxant pancuronium bromide (i.m., 1 mg/kg, Myoblock, MSD). The auditory cortex exposed by craniotomy was stained with the voltage-sensitive dye RH795 (Invitrogen) for 60–90 min. Heart rate and body temperature were continuously monitored. A supplemental dose of anesthetics (25 mg/kg Ketalar and 10 mg/kg Selactar) and the muscle relaxant (1 mg/kg Myoblock) was administered every 60–120 min. Animals were euthanized with pentobarbital (i.p., 60 mg/kg, Somnopentyl, Abbott) or ketamine (intracardiac, 160 mg/kg) after completion of the experiment.

Tibial Nerve Regeneration Using Microfibrous Conduits

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Electrospun microfibrous conduits were implanted into 2.0-cm gaps in the left tibial nerve of a total of 12 New Zealand white rabbits (3.0–3.5 kg, male) (Oriental Yeast Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan). This study was performed in accordance with the animal experimental guidelines of the National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center Research Institute. Rabbits were anesthetized by intramuscular injection of 0.1 mL/kg of Selactar (Bayer Yakuhin, Ltd., Osaka, Japan) and anesthesia was maintained by inhalation of 3% Escain isoflurane (Mylan Inc., Canonsburg, PA, USA). Under an operating microscope, the left tibial nerve was exposed and a 2.0-cm segment was removed. A section of microfibrous conduit was filled with physiological saline solution and sutured with 10-0 vicryl (Ethicon, Somerville, NJ, USA) to bridge the gap between the proximal and distal stumps. Both nerve stumps were pulled 1.0 mm inside the conduits. In addition, the removed nerve tissue was inverted on its proximal–distal axis and implanted as an autograft control. Muscle and skin were closed with 3-0 silk sutures (Ethicon), and the rabbits were allowed to recover in a controlled environment.

Helical CT Imaging of Cryptorchid Bulls

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We used a 16-slice multidetector helical CT scanner (Aquilion LB, Canon Medical Systems,
Otawara, Japan). The scanning parameters were as follows: X-ray tube potential, 120 kV;
X-ray tube current, 300 mA; gantry rotation time, 0.5 sec; and slice thickness, 2.0–8.0
mm. These parameters were used based on our pilot study. All bulls were premedicated with
xylazine (Selactar; Bayer Yakuhin Ltd., Tokyo, Japan; 0.2 mg/kg IV) and general anesthesia
was maintained with Isoflurane (Isoflurane; Pfizer Inc., Tokyo, Japan.) through the
endotracheal tube. The lateral recumbent position with the affected side up was employed
during CT. If the bulls were suspected to have bilateral cryptorchidism, the right lateral
recumbent position was employed.
