Is There a Causal Association between Genotoxicity and the Imposex Effect? [PDF]

, 2006
There is a growing body of evidence that indicates common environmental pollutants are capable of disrupting reproductive and developmental processes by interfering with the actions of endogenous hormones.

Why doesn't conventional IVF work in the horse? The equine oviduct as a microenvironment for capacitation/fertilization.

Reproduction, 2016
In contrast to man and many other mammalian species, conventional in vitro fertilization (IVF) with horse gametes is not reliably successful. The apparent inability of stallion spermatozoa to penetrate the zona pellucida in vitro is most likely due to ...

Symposium: reproduction in baboons. The baboon oviduct: characteristics of an oestradiol-dependent oviduct-specific glycoprotein [PDF]

Human Reproduction Update, 1997
The baboon oviductal epithelium differentiates into a tall columnar epithelium consisting of ciliated and secretory cells during the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle in response to rising oestradiol levels. The apical tips of these secretory cells are filled with membrane-bound secretory granules. During the luteal phase when progesterone levels

Safety Evaluation of Serendipity Berry Sweet Protein From Komagataella phaffii

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Serendipity Berry Sweet Protein (sweelin) is a novel hyper‐sweet thermophilic protein designed using Artificial Intelligence Computational Protein Design (AI‐CPD) to improve the stability and sensory profile of the protein found in serendipity berry (Dioscoreophyllum cumminsii).

Oviduct-specific expression of tissue plasminogen activator in laying hens

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2011
Egg-laying hens are important candidate bioreactors for pharmaceutical protein production because of the amenability of their eggs for protein expression.

Improved bovine embryo production in an oviduct-on-a-chip system: prevention of poly-spermic fertilization and parthenogenic activation.

Lab on a Chip, 2017
The oviduct provides the natural micro-environment for gamete interaction, fertilization and early embryo development in mammals, such as the cow. In conventional culture systems, bovine oviduct epithelial cells (BOEC) undergo a rapid loss of essential ...

Allergenicity, Genotoxicity and Subchronic Toxicity Assessment of IgG Binding Protein LT Produced From Aspergillus oryzae

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal health is one of the fastest growing areas in the food and beverage industry, as its importance to overall health and well‐being is becoming increasingly recognized. Immunoglobulins play a key role in protecting the gastrointestinal tract, and nonbovine sources of immunoglobulins (including camel milk, which has a long history

The sperm-interacting proteome in the bovine isthmus and ampulla during the periovulatory period

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2023
Background Spermatozoa interact with oviduct secretions before fertilization in vivo but the molecular players of this dialog and underlying dynamics remain largely unknown. Our objectives were to identify an exhaustive list of sperm-interacting proteins

The Behavior and Acrosomal Status of Mouse Spermatozoa In Vitro, and Within the Oviduct During Fertilization after Natural Mating1

Biology of Reproduction, 2016
Although 90%–100% of mouse oocytes can be fertilized in vitro with capacitated spermatozoa within 1 h after insemination, oocytes within the oviduct are fertilized one by one over a period of several hours.

Smart Surface Engineering in Microcarriers: Toward Applications in Cancer Therapy

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
A microcarrier with dual surface modification integrates two distinct pH‐sensitive nanoreservoirs, enabling precise, site‐specific drug delivery and potential extracellular matrix degradation. This dual functionalization strategy ensures the separation of therapeutic functions, effectively preventing cross‐process interference and aiming synergistic ...
