Perturbations in Lineage Specification of Granulosa and Theca Cells May Alter Corpus Luteum Formation and Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Anovulation is a major cause of infertility, and it is the major leading reproductive disorder in mammalian females. Without ovulation, an oocyte is not released from the ovarian follicle to be fertilized and a corpus luteum is not formed.

Cellular distribution of a feminizing microsporidian parasite: a strategy for transovarial transmission [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The cellular distribution of a vertically transmitted, feminizing microsporidian was followed in its host Gammarus duebeni. In adult females the parasite was restricted to gonadal tissue, in particular primary and secondary follicle cells.

Determining the timeline of gonadal and genital differentiation in male and female equine fetuses allows for early detection and intervention in malformations

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Sexual differentiation in the equine fetus involves coordinated morphogenetic processes that shape both the gonads and the genital ducts. Although the formation of testes and ovaries has been relatively well documented, the temporal dynamics and morphometric patterns of the mesonephric (Wolffian) and paramesonephric (Müllerian) ducts remain ...

Estrone and estradiol concentrations in human ovaries, testes, and adrenals during the first two years of life [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
To determine the origin of estrogens in infant blood, we measured estrone (E1) and estradiol (E2) in the gonads of 50 girls and 64 boys who died suddenly between birth and 2 yr of age as well as in the adrenals of 18 of these infant girls and 16 of the ...

Cortical bone distribution in the human mandibular symphysis: Ontogenic and morphometric approaches in archeological context

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The human mandibular symphysis concentrates multiaxial loads during function and remodels throughout growth, but the precise mechanisms underlying cortical bone shape during growth remain relatively unexplored. Approaches based solely on thickness or external cortical contours provide only partial insights and do not capture the functional ...

Biochemical Changes during Gonadal Maturation Portunus pelagicus (Linnaeus, 1758) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The changes in moisture, protein, lipid, carbohydrate and carotenoids in the ovary, hepatopancreas, muscle and haemolymph during the process of gonadal maturation of the crab PorhmllS pelagiclls (Linnaeus, 1758) were nvestigated.

Much more than their fangs: Macroscopic anatomy of the brain of Bothrops moojeni Hoge 1966 (Squamata, Serpentes, Viperidae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuroanatomical research has progressed considerably in several vertebrate lineages, yet studies of reptilian brain morphology remain markedly underdeveloped. Here we provide the first description of macroscopic brain anatomy and its ontogeny in the viperid Bothrops moojeni, based on a sample of seven individuals.

Reproductive Dynamics of the Seabob Shrimp Xiphopenaeus kroyeri in Trawl Fisheries in Southeastern Brazil

open access: yesBiology
Seabob shrimp Xiphopenaeus kroyeri is under heavy capture-pressure in the western Atlantic, requiring periods of fishing suspension to protect the propagation of the species in the wild.

The Role of miRNAs in Chicken Immune Regulation and Prospects for Disease‐Resistant Breeding

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
A schematic workflow illustrating the screening of disease‐resistant miRNAs and the generation of miRNA‐based disease‐resistant chickens via PGC‐mediated germline genome editing. ABSTRACT MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as pivotal regulators of the immune system, playing a decisive role in shaping disease resistance in chicken.

Effectiveness of Soybean Meal as a Feed Supplement on Gonadal Maturation, Gonadosomatic Index (GSI), Hepatosomatic Index (HSI), and Spawning Success of Female Broodstock Catfish

open access: yesNekton
The increasing demand for catfish (Clarias sp.) consumption necessitates a sustainable supply of broodstock and seed for aquaculture. One of the main constraints in meeting this demand is the low gonadal maturation rate of catfish outside the natural ...
