Ovarian Follicular Atresia
Throughout ovarian development and function in mammals, a highly orchestrated, periodic process known as follicular atresia occurs that destroys and eliminates follicles and oocytes from the ovary. Follicular atresia is pervasive. In humans, it is estimated to account for 99.9% of the loss of oocytes from development of the fetal ovary until reproductive senescence (Baker, 1963; Faddy et al., 1...
متن کاملApoptosis and Ovarian Follicular Atresia in Mammals
The reproductive performance of any mammalian species can be enhanced by enriching nutrition, regulating environmental factors like photoperiod, temperature, humidity etc., through selective breeding, endocrine manipulations and better management practices (Sharma, 2000; Maillet et al., 2002; Bussiere et al., 2002; Iwata et al., 2004, 2005; Rudolf, 2007; Bhardwaj and Sharma, 2011). The endocrin...
متن کاملNephrotoxicity of Isosorbide Dinitrate and Cholestasis in Rat: The Possible Role of Nitric Oxide
Background: Nitric oxide (NO), a major chemical form of endothelium-derived relaxing factor and an important regulator of vascular tone, is released by endothelial cells. The role of NO is not restricted to the vascular system, and it participates in the regulation of renal hemodynamics and renal excretory function. There are increasing evidences indicating that the elevated levels of NO play a...
متن کاملEvidence Inducible Cells: A P Atresia for an Nitric ossible Inverse Relationship between Apoptosis and Oxide Synthase Expression in Rat Granulosa Role of Nitric Oxide in Ovarian Follicle
Ovarian follicle atresia is thought to be induced through apoptosis of granulosa cells. This study was designed to investigate the possible involvement of nitric oxide (NO) in granulosa cell apoptosis. In immature rat ovaries obtained 48 h after pregnant mare serum gonadotropin administration, immunohistochemistry and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTPbiotin nick end labeling (...
متن کاملThe Effect of Swim Stress on Morphine Tolerance Development and the Possible Role of Nitric Oxide in this Process
It has been shown that stress and chronic pain could prevent the development of tolerance to morphine analgesia, which appears to be related to the activation of hypothalamus–pitutitary–adrenal (HPA) axis, activation of neuroendocrine systems and changes in neurochemical levels. Moreover, the involvement of nitric oxide (NO) in the development of tolerance to morphine analgesia has been implica...
