Gametes alter the oviductal secretory proteome.
The mammalian oviduct provides an optimal environment for the maturation of gametes, fertilization, and early embryonic development. Secretory cells lining the lumen of the mammalian oviduct synthesize and secrete proteins that have been shown to interact with and influence the activities of gametes and embryos. We hypothesized that the presence of gametes in the oviduct alters the oviductal se...
متن کاملStudy on pattern of Neospora caninumtachyzoite proteins by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting in aborted cows
The intracellular parasite Neospora caninumis prevalent in several countries and is increasingly recognized as an important cause of abortion and stillbirth in cattle. For characterizeing the tachyzoite antigens of Neospora caninumin aborted cows, sera were obtained from 116 cows which were aborted in the third semester of the pregnancy period and had antibodies to Neospora caninumin ELISA. To ...
متن کاملProteins from human oviductal tissue-conditioned medium modulate sperm capacitation.
BACKGROUND Spermatozoa acquire the ability to fertilize an oocyte when they become capacitated. Capacitation takes place when sperm pass through the female reproductive tract, interacting with female fluids. Both tyrosine phosphorylation of sperm proteins and the ability to respond to acrosome reaction (AR) inducers have been associated with sperm capacitation. Recent data indicate that conditi...
متن کاملThe bovine dominant ovarian follicle.
Central roles in reproductive biology (i.e., growth and development of the oocyte, steroidogenesis, and ovulation) are played by the ovarian dominant follicle (DF). The DF is different from other follicles because it can escape atresia (the fate of all other follicles), and if exposed to the LH surge, its cells will differentiate into the corpus luteum. The DF was originally studied by looking ...
متن کاملRescue from dominant follicle atresia by follicle-stimulating hormone in mice.
We investigated the effects of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) on atresia of the dominant follicle and changes in relevant apoptosis genes in granulosa cells of dominant follicles regulated by FSH in vivo. Four-week-old mice were administered FSH by intraperitoneal injection to induce follicular maturation. Granulosa cells of dominant follicles were collected at 48, 72, and 96 h after the fi...
