Glycerylphosphorylcholine diesterase activity of nervous tissue.
A study of the demyelinating diseases of man reveals at once the need for more knowledge of the enzymic processes that may be specifically concerned with the metabolism and maintenance ofthe myelin sheath of the nerve fibres. Experimental nerve degeneration and an accompanying break-up ofthe myelin sheath can beproduced in some species of animal, notably the hen, by the administration of certai...
متن کاملSperm transport in the female reproductive tract.
At coitus, human sperm are deposited into the anterior vagina, where, to avoid vaginal acid and immune responses, they quickly contact cervical mucus and enter the cervix. Cervical mucus filters out sperm with poor morphology and motility and as such only a minority of ejaculated sperm actually enter the cervix. In the uterus, muscular contractions may enhance passage of sperm through the uteri...
متن کاملInflammation in the bovine female reproductive tract.
Inflammation of the reproductive tract of a cow occurs when the physical and functional barriers to contamination are breached or specific infection occurs. Commonly, contamination occurs at parturition and to a lesser extent at estrus. Uterine contamination following calving is common, but most healthy cows are able to clear the uterus of bacteria in the first 2 to 3 wk after calving. Persiste...
متن کاملImmune Cells in the Female Reproductive Tract
The female reproductive tract has two main functions: protection against microbial challenge and maintenance of pregnancy to term. The upper reproductive tract comprises the fallopian tubes and the uterus, including the endocervix, and the lower tract consists of the ectocervix and the vagina. Immune cells residing in the reproductive tract play contradictory roles: they maintain immunity again...
متن کاملImmunity in the female sheep reproductive tract.
Immune surveillance in the female reproductive tract is dependent on the interplay of many factors that include the expression of pattern recognition receptors on epithelial cells, resident leukocyte populations and hormones, none of which are uniform. The lower reproductive tract must accommodate the presence of commensal organisms whereas the upper reproductive tract is sterile. However, the ...
