Ultrasound appearance of decidual reaction in the uterus during normal pregnancy

the effect of e-64 on the developmental competence of sheep cocs during in vitro maturation

in the present study, the effect of e-64 at different concentrations (0.5, 1, 5 and 10 µm) added to (1) the ivm medium on oocyte nuclear maturation and developmental competence of ovine oocytes, and (2) to the ivc medium on embryonic development of ovine embryos were investigated.

Histochemistry of dehydrogenases in the sheep uterus during

Expression of lymphocyte perforin in the mouse uterus during pregnancy.

In situ hybridization and immunofluorescence were used to study the expression of a lymphocyte pore-forming protein (perforin) in the uterus of pregnant mice. Cells expressing perforin mRNA were detected as early as gestation day 5, whereas perforin protein was detected one or two days later. Although the number of cells expressing both perforin mRNA and perforin protein varied subsequently wit...

A Case of Successful Pregnancy in a Complete Bicornuate Uterus

Complete bicornuate uterus is a type of Mullerian duct deformity, resulting from abnormal duct fusion. Similar to other Mullerian anomalies, bicornuate uterus is associated with specific complications during possible pregnancies. While various studies have reported successful deliveries in a bicornuate uterus, it might be accompanied with various complications, ranging from preterm labor to mor...

[Estrogen receptors of the rat uterus during pregnancy and lactation].

Uterine estrogen receptors (ER) of the rat during pregnancy and postpartal lactation were assayed. Both the cytoplasmic and nuclear ER were determined by the controlled pore glass (CPG) method as previously described in detail. The cytoplasmic ER level slightly decreased as pregnancy advanced and then increased remarkably during postpartal lactation, with a tendency to decrease at 5 weeks of la...
