Luteal blood flow and luteal function [PDF]
Journal of Ovarian Research, 2009 Background Blood flow in the corpus luteum (CL) is associated with luteal function. The present study was undertaken to investigate whether luteal function can be improved by increasing CL blood flow in women with luteal phase defect (LFD). Methods Blood

Luteal blood flow in patients undergoing GnRH agonist long protocol [PDF]
Journal of Ovarian Research, 2011 Background Blood flow in the corpus luteum (CL) is closely related to luteal function. It is unclear how luteal blood flow is regulated. Standardized ovarian-stimulation protocol with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa long protocol) causes ...

Functional characterization of a bovine luteal cell culture model: Effects of passage number. [PDF]
PLoS ONEPrimary cell culture models are useful tools to analyze intracellular signaling pathways and interactions in detail. However, at higher passages, vital cell characteristics such as cell morphology, physiology, gene expression and cell proliferation can ...

Effect of estrous cycle phases on gene expression in bovine oviduct epithelial cells [PDF]
Veterinary World, 2022 Background and Aim: The oviduct environment is of particular importance because it is the site of fertilization and early embryo development. The oviduct, as a component of the reproductive system, responds to ovarian hormone (estradiol [E2] and ...

Association Between Smoking and Premenstrual Syndrome: A Meta-Analysis
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2020 Results of basic science studies demonstrate shared actions of endogenous neuroactive steroid hormones and drugs of abuse on neurotransmission. As such, premenstrual syndrome (PMS) may be associated with smoking, however, results from studies examining ...
