the association of secreted frizzled related protein type 4 (sfrp4) as an antagonist of wnt mole-cules in apoptotic events has been reported previously. moreover, its increased expression has been reported in the ovary of women with polycystic ovary (pco). we have demonstrated in-creased sfrp4 in pco-induced rat ovary related to an increased number of apoptotic follicles showing nuclear ?cateni...

background: recently, there are increasing concerns and interests about the potential effects of electromagnetic field (emf) on both human and animal health. objective: the goal of this study was to evaluate the harmful effects of 50 hz non-ionizing emf on rat oocytes. materials and methods: in this experimental study 30 rats were randomly taken from laboratory animals and their ags and weights...

Abstract Evolutionarily young genes are usually preferentially expressed in the testis across species. Although it is known that older generally more broadly than younger genes, properties shaped this pattern unknown. Older may gain expression other tissues uniformly, or faster certain others. Using Drosophila gene data, we confirmed previous findings disproportionately biased and ovary biased....

This study purposed to determine the relationship between polycystic ovary syndrome and the outcome of assisted reproductive treatment (ART) cycle in Tehran, Iran. MaterialsAndMethods In this historical cohort study, 996 infertile women were included in the study between Janua...

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate the prevalence of Demodex folliculorum (D. folliculorum) mites in polycystic ovary syndrome patients as well as to examine the relationship between Demodex infestation and the presence of acne an...

Mytilus coruscus is a significant economic species in China’s eastern coastal areas. As dioecious species, it lacks secondary sexual characteristics, which makes difficult for selective breeding. However, limited research carried out on the genetic data regarding reproductive development and gender differentiation. In current study, de novo transcriptome sequencing analyses were used to detect ...

non–hodgkin lymphoma (nhl) causes many deaths worldwide with increasing incidence. non-hodgkin's lymphoma (nhl) may involve the gynecologic tract, and the ovary to be one of the commoner anatomic sites as reported. ovarian involvement by nhl is usually secondary, occurring as a part of systemic disease. the diagnosis is often made incidentally while investigating for gynecological symptoms. we ...
