Abstract

Early embryonic death in the mare is one of the main causes of subfertility in horses(Woods et al., 1987). Pregnancy loss in women has been correlated with hyperhomocysteinaemia(Steegers-Theunissem et al., 1997) and seems to be caused by an alterationof placental angiogenesis (Nagai et al., 2001). Hyperhomocysteinaemia isconsidered an important marker of obstetric and gynaecological conditions (Scholland Johnson, 2000).The aim of the present study was to test the levels of homocysteine in maressuffering from embryonic death.[...]
