Abstract
Superovulation causes detrimental effects, including embryonic loss and implantation failure. This study determined potential roles for insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) in uterine environment regulation and preimplantation development, in conjunction with the detrimental effects of superovulation in the rat. IGF-I may be beneficial to preimplantation embryonic development. IGF-I stimulated embryonic development and metabolism in vitro and increased the rate of implantation and fetal development when the blastocysts were transferred into a receptive uterus.

Abstract
The purpose of this research was to examine hindlimb blood flow and oxygen supply in the late-gestation fetal lamb under normal and pathophysiological conditions. Although the carcass, or non-visceral tissue, accounts for a large proportion of fetal weight and oxygen demand, it has received little research attention. Because the hindlimb is composed of skin, bone, and skeletal muscle, it is representative of the carcass
