چکیده مقاله:

Introduction:Artifical sourace of radiation have increased worldwide average annual exposure of mankind and could especially affect rapidly dividing cells in gonads. Since, radiation sensitivities of different components of primordial follicles, and the time required for their deplation have not been morphologically eatablished we decided to estimate the time required for depletion of primordial follicles and to analyze the morphological changes in primordial follicles after gamma irradiation in rats ovaries. Material & Method: 108-Female albino rats of 3 weeks age were divided into three groups. Out of them, 36 animals received 4.5 Gray, and 36 received 8.3 Gray of gamma radiation while rest received sham radiation. Then their Ovaries were dissected at 2hrs, 4hrs, 6hrs, one day, 7 days and 14 days after irradiation. Histological examination of five random sections of each ovary was performed. Results: The stockpile of primordial follicles almost depleted within 24 hours. The pool of primordial follicles was greatly suppressed after irradiation showing primordial follicles radiosensitivity. Intense necrosis was evident with karyorrhexis and karyolysis in nucleus of oocyte while effects on granulosa cells were little and they increased the bulk of interstitial tissues. Conclusion:Gamma ionizing radiation induces intense and rapid necrotic degeneration of oocyte in primordial ovarian follicles. The granulosa cells of degenerated primordial follicle increase the bulk of ovarian interstitial tissue. Resultant ovaries do not have enough follicular reserve for ovulatory process which may lead to early cessation of menstruation and eventually infertility.

Effects of gamma-radiation on ovarian follicles.

In order to observe the morphological and endocrinological changes of the rat and mouse ovarian follicles by gamma-radiation, rats were whole-body irradiated with doses of 3.2 Gy and 8.0 Gy and mice with 2.9 Gy and 7.2 Gy. Sections of ovaria were examined by light microscopy. Concentrations of progesterone, testosterone, and estradiol in ovarian homogenate were determined by radioimmunoassay te...

Chemoprotection of ovarian follicles of mice against gamma irradiation by MPG (2-mercaptopropionylglycine).

Chemical protection/Ovarian follicle/Gamma irradiation Adult virgin female Swiss albino mice were irradiated with 2.5, 5 and 10 Gy of gamma radiation in the presence and absence of the drug MPG and changes in the ovarian follicular population were scored at various post irradiation intervals of 3 hours to 14 days. The results indicate that the drug has partially prevented the rapid reduction in...

In vitro development of primordial follicles after long-term culture of goat ovarian tissue.

This study aims to investigate the effects of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) on the survival and growth of caprine preantral follicles. Ovarian tissues were cultured for 1, 7, 14, 21 or 28 days in medium supplemented with FSH (FSH-2d or FSH-7d, i.e., with replacement of the culture medium every 2 or 7 days, respectively) or FSH+FGF-2 (replacement of th...

The nuage mediates retrotransposon silencing in mouse primordial ovarian follicles.

Mobilization of endogenous retrotransposons can destabilize the genome, an imminent danger during epigenetic reprogramming of cells in the germline. The P-element-induced wimpy testis (PIWI)-interacting RNA (piRNA) pathway is known to silence retrotransposons in the mouse testes. Several piRNA pathway components localize to the unique, germline structure known as the nuage. In this study, we su...

Rheological properties of blood after whole body gamma-irradiation

Background: The study of rheological properties of blood has special interest since it is a circulating fluid exposed to shear rates during its life time. This work aims to investigate the influence of whole body gamma irradiation on the rheological properties of rat’s blood. The applied shear rate was from 12 to 375 s-1. Low shear viscosity (up to 100 s-1) depends mainly on the erythroc...
