study of sex steroid hormones and ovarian histology in female shemaya (alburnus chalcoides) migratory to anzali wetland

Authors
abstract

abstract reproductive biology of female shemaya (alburnus chalcoides) studied with examination of histology, egg diameter and value of sex steroid hormones during spawning phase in the anzali wetland from march 2013 to jun 2014. finally 42 numbers of female fish were examined. the result of sex steroid hormones showed the rate of testosterone hormone in gravid fish was 7.93±1.18 ng/ml; but in ripe females, its value was 3.88±1.12 ng/ml (p<0.05). level of 17β- estradiol during spawning phase were examined and its value in gravid fish and ripe fish respectively was 2.98±0.18 and 2.55±0.09 ng/ml. also level of progesterone hormone in ripe fish was 0.36±0.04 ng/ml, that its value in ripe fish and its value in gravid fish was 0.25±0.03 ng/ml (p<0.05). egg diameter in gravid fish and ripe fish respectively was 655.12±13.29 and 792.4±13.96 micron. microscopic study of ovarian histology in female fish showed ovarian contain eggs in primary growth stage, cortical alveoli, early vitellogenic oocyte, advanced vitellogenic oocyte, hydrated oocyte, germinal visicol break down oocyte. according to value of 17β-estradiol during spawning phase and result of other study, probably eggs are growing during spawning phase. the process of oocyte growth in these fishes is asynchronous.

Sex steroid levels, reproductive indices and histological examination of gonads in adult male and female Caspian shemaya, Alburnus chalcoides

Reproductive status of Alburnus chalcoides adults from Anzali Wetland was investigated by histological examination of gonads, assessment of sex steroids (i.e. Progesterone (P), Estradiol-17ß (E2), Testosterone (T)) and reproductive indices (i.e. absolute fecundity, oocyte diameter, hepatosomatic index (%HSI) and gonadosomatic index (%GSI)). Totally, 42 females and 16 males were captured during ...

Steroid Hormones and Ovarian Cancer

Globally, ovarian cancer is the 6th most common malignancy in developed countries, responsible for 100,300 new cases and 64,500 deaths annually (Jemal et al., 2011). Approximately 90% of ovarian cancers arise within the ovarian surface epithelium (OSE) or the fallopian tube surface epithelium; the remainder of ovarian malignancies develops from other ovarian tissues (sex cord-stromal, germ cell...

a frame semantic approach to the study of translating cultural scripts in salingers franny and zooey

the frame semantic theory is a nascent approach in the area of translation studies which goes beyond the linguistic barriers and helps us to incorporate cognitive and cultural factors to the study of translation. based on rojos analytical model (2002b), which centered in the frames or knowledge structures activated in the text, the present research explores the various translation problems that...
