Effects of spermatozoa–oviductal cell coincubation time and oviductal cell age on spermatozoa–oviduct interactions [PDF]
Reproduction, Fertility and Development, 2014 The oviduct plays a crucial role in sperm storage, maintenance of sperm viability and sperm transport to the site of fertilisation. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of oviductal cell culture passage number, oviductal cell age and spermatozoa–oviduct coincubation times on gene expression in oviductal cells.

A Comparative View on the Oviductal Environment during the Periconception Period
Biomolecules, 2020 The oviduct plays important roles in reproductive events: sperm reservoir formation, final gamete maturation, fertilization and early embryo development.

Hyaluronan and Hyaluronidase, which is better for embryo development? [PDF]
, 2016 Our aim was to examine size-specific effects of Hyaluronan (HA) on preimplantation embryo development. We investigated the effects of Hyalovet (HA, 500–750 kDa; the size produced by HA synthase-3, which is abundant in the oviduct), or HA treated with ...

Anandamide levels fluctuate in the bovine oviduct during the oestrous cycle. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Mammalian oviduct acts as a reservoir for spermatozoa and provides an environment in which they may compete for the opportunity to fertilize the oocyte. Whilst in the oviduct spermatozoa undergo capacitation essential for fertilization.

Hens with Bilateral Oviducts [PDF]
Nature, 1957 As the reproductive organs of the female chicken develop there is an atrophy of the right gonad and the right oviduct which begins during early embryogeny. Persistency of these structures on the left side results in only one functional ovary and oviduct.

Long-term culture of primary porcine oviduct epithelial cells: Validation of a comprehensive in vitro model for reproductive science [PDF]
, 2013 Recently, we established a protocol for the cultivation of primary porcine oviduct epithelial cells (POEC), which promoted tissue-like morphology for a prolonged culture period.

Adhesion to oviduct glycans regulates porcine sperm Ca2+ influx and viability.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Before fertilization, sperm bind to epithelial cells of the oviduct isthmus to form a reservoir that regulates sperm viability and capacitation. The sperm reservoir maintains optimum fertility in species, like swine, in which semen deposition and ...

Role of the oviduct and oviduct-derived products in ruminant embryo development [PDF]
Animal Reproduction, 2016 The fact that embryos can be obtained in vitro undermines the role of the oviduct. However, it has been demonstrated that when in vitro produced bovine zygotes are cultured in the oviduct of sheep, cattle or mice the embryo quality is improved compared to the embryos produced in vitro.
