Pendrin and sodium/iodide symporter protein expression in the testicular tissue of normal and diabetic rats in prepubertal and post pubertal stages
Pendrin (PDS) and sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) are transmembrane proteins that are located in numerous tissue types, particularly thyroid follicular epithelial cells, where they are entrusted with the regulation of iodine molecules. In the present study, we aimed to clarify changes in PDS and NIS protein expression, in the testicular tissue of prepubertal and <span la...
متن کاملIn vitro maturation and fertilization of prepubertal and pubertal black Bengal goat oocytes
Oocytes retrieval, in vitro maturation (IVM) and fertilization (IVF) efficiency are inevitable steps towards in vitro production of embryos. In the present study, these parameters were investigated in the ovaries of prepubertal (n = 31) and pubertal (n = 61) black Bengal goats obtained from a slaughterhouse. Nuclear maturation was evaluated upon aspiration and following IVM in TCM-199 (Earle's ...
متن کاملVulnerability of Prepubertal Mice Testis to Iron Induced Oxidative Dysfunctions In Vivo and Functional Implications
Background The present study describes the susceptibility of prepubertal testis of mice to prooxidant induced oxidative impairments both under in vitro and in vivo exposure conditions. MaterialsAndMethods Following in vitro exposure to iron (5,10 and 25 M), oxidative response measured in terms of lipid peroxidation and hydroperoxide levels in testis of pre pubertal mice (4 wk) was more robust c...
متن کاملExpression of maternal transcripts during bovine oocyte in vitro maturation is affected by donor age.
The primary objective of this study was to compare expression of maternal transcripts in bovine oocyte populations with differential developmental competence: oocytes from prepubertal and pubertal animals; and oocytes from small (3-4 mm) and large (6-10 mm) follicles from pubertal animals. All transcripts were examined in oocytes prior to and after in vitro maturation (IVM). Genes were selected...
متن کاملImpaired mouse fertilization by low chronic alcohol treatment.
Little is known about the effects of low chronic alcohol intake on fertility, particularly in females. Recently, we have shown that chronic 10% (w/v) ethanol treatment affects in-vitro fertilization of mouse female gamete. The aim of this study was to solve questions concerning the lowest dose and duration of ethanol treatment required to alter the fertility of immature and adult female and adu...
