The aim of this study was to report the oviduct cyst together with uterine serosal inclusion cysts observed in a 5-year-old female Anatolian water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis). General examination of the animal before slaughtering revealed no health problems. Blood was collected from jugular vein and serum was separated. Serum estradiol and progesterone concentrations were determined using electro...

Delivery by Caesarean Section (CS) of pregnant rats at 09.00 hours on the 23rd day of gestation reduced the range of times of ovulation after parturition by 18 hr. Ovulation had not occurred by 15 hr after CS but was completed by 18 hr, an interval which is similar to that of ovulation for females of this colony littering at 09.00 hours. Operation on Day 21 or 22 post coitum did not change the ...

Background & Objective:  Molybdenum trioxide nanoparticles (MoO3 NPs) have widespread applications in industries. However, the toxic and non-toxic effects of MoO3 NPs have not been fully investigated yet. In this study, effects of MoO3 NPs on ovary function of female rats were studied.  Materials & Methods:  In this study, 21 female rats were randomly divided into three groups (n=7): the first...

This paper deals with the neoplastic and hyperplastic changes in the ovaries, uteri, and mammary glands of rats treated with growth hormone. Ab normalities of these organs occurred in 12 of 15 female rats following the administration of pitui tary growth hormone for long periods. The neo plasms occurring in the lungs, lymphatic tissues, and adrenal glands of these rats have been redosage of gro...

Blood flow to each uterine horn of cows during the oestrous cycle and early pregnancy was determined daily by use of electromagnetic blood flow probes placed around both middle uterine arteries. The pattern of blood flow to uteri of pregnant and non-pregnant cows was similar until Day 14 after mating or oestrus. Between Days 14 and 18 of pregnancy blood flow to the uterine horn containing the c...

Rat eosinophil peroxidase and rat uterine peroxidase II showed similar electrophoretic mobilities, molecular weights, specific activities and spectral properties and could be purified by essentially identical techniques. Antibodies raised against the uterine enzyme strongly inhibited the eosinophil enzyme. It is suggested that rat eosinophil peroxidase and rat uterine peroxidase II may well be ...

PURPOSE Verify the effect of oophorectomy on the evolution of the Walker 256 tumor inoculated into the vagina and cervix of female rats. METHODS Ten Wistar, female rats were used, distributed into two groups with 05 animals each: Tumor group (TG): Rats inoculated with Walker 256 tumor; Oophorectomy group (OG): oophorectomized rats inoculated with Walker 256 tumor. The day before the tumor vag...

UNLABELLED Bisphenol-A (BPA), dichrolodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and vinclozolin were found able to induce abnormal uterine contraction. The mechanisms involved remains unclear. We hypothesized that the effect of these compounds were mediated via the uterotonin pathways. Therefore, in this study, effects of BPA, vinclozolin and DDT-only and in combination with uterotonins (PGF-2α, acetylchol...

The effects of uterine length per embryo and stage of gestation on prenatal survival, development, and sex ratio were determined by systematically restricting embryos to 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, or > 50 cm of initial uterine length per potential embryo and examining the reproductive tracts at d 17, 23, 29, 35, or 41 of gestation. At d 3 the mean length of a uterine horn was 169 +/- 35...
