TI  - Relationship between Enzymatic Antioxidant Activities and Reproductive Hormones 
      in the Cows with Retained Placenta in Basrah Province, Iraq.

AB  - The current study was conducted to evaluate the activity of enzymatic 
      antioxidants (superoxide dismutase [SOD], catalase [CAT], glutathione peroxidase 
      [GSH-px], glutathione transferase [GSH-tr], and glutathione [GSH]) in the plasma 
      of cows that suffered from retained placenta (RP), compared to cows without RP. 
      Estrogen, progesterone, and cortisol hormones were also evaluated for the two 
      groups of animals. In total, 38 pregnant cows were investigated in this study, 
      and eight cows were suffering from RP (RP group) and did not release the placenta 
      up to 12 h after giving birth. The other 30 cows did not suffer from RP (non-RP 
      group) and left as a control. The results revealed a significant increase in CAT, 
      GSH-tr, and GSH-px enzyme activities after calving in RP animals, compared to the 
      other group of animals with normal placenta release before and after calving. In 
      addition, SOD and GSH showed a significant increase in their levels before 
      calving that reduced after giving birth, compared to the other antioxidant 
      enzymes levels. The hormonal study also revealed a significant decrease in the 
      estrogen level in the RP group, compared to the non-RP group, while the 
      progesterone and cortisol showed non-significant levels in the studied groups. In 
      conclusion, a strong relationship of RP with the antioxidant enzymatic activity 
      and hormones in RP cow was observed in this study, which can be used to predict 
      the incidence of RP throughout the levels of enzymatic antioxidants before 
      parturition.
