Permanent Oviduct Posteriorization after Neonatal Exposure to the Phytoestrogen Genistein
BACKGROUND Preimplantation embryo loss during oviduct transit has been observed in adult mice after a 5-day neonatal exposure to the phytoestrogen genistein (Gen; 50 mg/kg/day). OBJECTIVE We investigated the mechanisms underlying the contribution of the oviduct to infertility. METHODS Female mice were treated on postnatal days 1-5 with corn oil or Gen (50 mg/kg/day). We compared morphology,...
متن کاملThe Phytoestrogen Genistein Affects Zebrafish Development through Two Different Pathways
BACKGROUND Endocrine disrupting chemicals are widely distributed in the environment and derive from many different human activities or can also be natural products synthesized by plants or microorganisms. The phytoestrogen, genistein (4', 5, 7-trihydroxy-isoflavone), is a naturally occurring compound found in soy products. Genistein has been the subject of numerous studies because of its known ...
متن کاملHistomorphometrical changes of oviduct during the long-term exposure of breeder hens to extra thyroxine
In this research a 100 day long treatment period was considered to unmask the probable adverse effects of long-term induced hyperthyroidism on histomorphometrical attributes of the oviduct in broiler breeder hens. A total of seventy 47-week-old Cobb 500 breeder hens were randomly allotted to two treatment groups (5 replicates of 7 hens each). Thyroxine (T4) was orally administered to the hypert...
متن کاملNeonatal exposure to daidzein, genistein, or the combination modulates bone development in female CD-1 mice.
Neonatal exposure to genistein (GEN), an isoflavone abundant in soy, favorably modulates bone mineral density (BMD) and bone strength in mice at adulthood. The study objective was to determine whether early exposure to a combination of the soy isoflavones daidzein (DAI) and GEN that naturally exists in soy protein-based infant formula results in greater benefits to bone at adulthood than either...
متن کاملGenetic Susceptibility to Transient and Permanent Neonatal Diabetes Mellitus
Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is a rare kind of diabetes characterized by hyperglycemia and low levels of insulin. Clinically, it is categorized into two main types: transient NDM (TNDM) and permanent NDM (PNDM). These types are diagnosed based on duration of insulin dependence early in the disease. In TNDM, diabetes begins in the first few weeks of life with remission in a few months. Howev...
