Proteomic characterization of the qualitative and quantitative differences in cervical mucus composition during the menstrual cycle.
The chemical composition of the cervical mucus (CM), its physical characteristics and the volume of secretion change cyclically throughout the menstrual cycle. The aim of this study was to identify the constitutive protein composition of CM of fertile women and the changes in the CM proteome throughout the menstrual cycle. Five fertile women who had a term delivery within 1 year before the stud...
متن کاملChanges in pig cervical mucus in relation to the oestrous cycle.
Daily or more frequent samples of cervical mucus were collected from forty-two gilts and analysed for Na and K. In five gilts, sampled through several oestrous cycles, the K level exceeded that of Na for short periods during oestrus. The ovarian status of twenty animals indicated that the K peak occurred approximately 40 hr before ovulation but with some individual variations. Two of these anim...
متن کاملProton magnetic resonance of human cervical mucus during the menstrual cycle.
Cyclic changes in the human cervical mucus were observed as early as the middle of the 19th century and have in the last two decades been the subject of extensive investigations. Among other matters studied have been the macroscopic and general appearances (SEGUY and VIMEUX 1933) and the crystallization pattern (e. g. by PAPANICOLAOU 1945, 1946, by RYDBERG 1948, and by ZONDEK 1954). The amount ...
متن کاملVariations in certain properties of bovine cervical mucus during the oestrous cycle.
THE epithelium of the cervix and upper vagina of the cow and certain other animals produces a mucous secretion in which, according to Woodman & Hammond [1925], may be found a mucoprotein belonging to the class of mucin bodies containing mucoitin sulphuric acid, since they identified glucosamine in a specimen of cervical mucus. The chemical composition of this secretion does not appear to have b...
متن کاملSecretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI) concentrations in cervical mucus of women with normal menstrual cycle.
Secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI) is a potent inhibitor of human leukocyte elastase. SLPI transcripts in the cervical tissue were detected during the menstrual cycle by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Western blot analysis revealed that the intensity of SLPI protein in cervical tissue in the ovulatory phase was stronger than in other phases. Immunohistochem...
