Postnatal Histochemical Study of the Ductus Deferens in the Ram*
نویسندگان
چکیده
The testis is an organ of lipid synthesis and catabolism. The testicular duct system is important for transportation, maturation and storage of sperms. The glands of the ampulla provide the first notable carbohydrate substrate to the semen (Pineda and Faulkner, 1980). The present work was undertaken to observe the histochemistry of carbohydrates, proteins and lipids during postnatal histological development from birth to maturity in the Madras Red ram.

Histological and anatomical study of the White Rooster: testis, epididymis and ductus deferens
This study was carried out to investigate the histological and anatomical description of the male genital tract in Iranian Native White Roosters (IWR). The seminiferous tubules had a dense and compact organization. An average of 12 layers of cells was seen in the seminiferous tubules epithelium. The spermatogonal cell layer showed some variation between different birds in 1-3 layers; however, t...

متن کاملThe reproductive cycle of the male sleep snake Sibynomorphus mikanii (Schlegel, 1837) from southeastern Brazil.
This study describes the male reproductive cycle of Sibynomorphus mikanii from southeastern Brazil considering macroscopic and microscopic variables. Spermatogenesis occurs during spring-summer (September-December) and spermiogenesis or maturation occurs in summer (December-February). The length and width of the kidney, the tubular diameter, and the epithelium height of the sexual segment of th...
متن کاملMelatonin MT1 and MT2 Receptors in the Ram Reproductive Tract
Some melatonin functions in mammals are exerted through MT₁ and MT₂ receptors. However, there are no reports of their presence in the reproductive tract of the ram, a seasonal species. Thus, we have investigated their existence in the ram testis, epididymis, accessory glands and ductus deferens. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) revealed higher levels of m-RNA for both receptors in the...

Histomorphological changes of epididymis and ductus deferens in male Black Bengal goat due to arsenic were studied. A total of 12 male Black Bengal goats, in which 6 were collected from arsenic affected areas of Mymensingh district and another 6 were collected from hill tracts of Chittagong which were arsenic free.The goats were sacrificed by piercing carotid artery and the samples (Epididymis ...
