Anti Mullerian Hormone: A Putative Endocrine Marker for Prediction of Superovulation Response in Cattle

Anti Mullerian Hormone: A Putative Endocrine Marker for Prediction of Superovulation Response in Cattle

Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) is a dimeric glycoprotein molecule with a molecular weight of 140-kDa linked to the Transforming Growth Factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily. Research on the use of AMH in livestock has gained momentum in recent years. In particular, it is now widely used in cattle breeding, where embryo transfer technology is used to obtain more offspring from genetically superior females. One of the most important factors that increase the success of embryo transfer is the response of the selected donor to the superovulation protocol. AMH has been successfully used as a biomarker in predicting superovulation response in cattle and in estimating the numbers of oocytes collected by ovum pick up (OPU). AMH plasma concentrations are positively and highly correlated with antral follicle count (AFC) in cattle and can also be used as a marker of ovarian reserve. In addition, AMH was also positively and highly correlated with the number of corpus luteum (CL) and total embryos after superovulation in several studies. It has been also reported via Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) that plasma AMH level is an inherited trait in cattle and can be improved through genomic selection.In this study, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between plasma AMH levels and superovulation response in cattle by compiling the data obtained from various studies in light of current scientific literature.
