Oocyte Pickup by the Mammalian Oviduct [PDF]
The transportation of mammalian oocytes into the oviduct is governed by ciliary beating and proper adhesion of the OCC matrix to the tips of the infundibular cilia. Ciliary beating alone can transport small particles such as spores but is not sufficient for OCC pickup.

Multi‐omics analysis revealed that FOS supplementation increased the abundance of Phascolarctobacterium, GCA‐900066575, Shuttleworthia, Olsenella, Eubacterium_hallii_group while decreasing Alistipes. It also influenced the metabolism of S‐lactoylglutathione, p‐cresol glucuronate, 2‐phenylethanol glucuronide, propionic acid, dulcitol, and inhibited the ...

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

Impact of Endocrine‐Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) Used in the Food Industry on Endocrine Abnormalities
This review was conducted to examine the relationship between hormone disruption and other endocrine abnormalities in the context of the constant consumption of genetically modified foods and overexposure to chemicals used directly and indirectly in the agrifood industry.

Sex Steroid-Mediated Control of Oviductal Function in Cattle
In cattle, the oviduct is a tubular organ that connects the ovary and the uterus. The oviduct lumen stages a dynamic set of cellular and molecular interactions to fulfill the noble role of generating a new individual. Specific anatomical niches along the

The octopamine receptor OAMB mediates ovulation via Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II in the Drosophila oviduct epithelium. [PDF]
Ovulation is an essential physiological process in sexual reproduction; however, the underlying cellular mechanisms are poorly understood. We have previously shown that OAMB, a Drosophila G-protein-coupled receptor for octopamine (the insect counterpart ...

Loss of maternal annexin A5 increases the likelihood of placental platelet thrombosis and foetal loss [PDF]
Antiphospholipid syndrome is associated with an increased risk of thrombosis and pregnancy loss. Annexin A5 (Anxa5) is a candidate autoantigen. It is not known, however, whether endogenous Anxa5 prevents foetal loss during normal pregnancy.

COLLECTION OF BOVINE OVIDUCT SECRETIONS [PDF]
a procedure for the continuous collection of oviduct fluid from the cow. Cannulation of the oviduct was accomplished with a single silastic cannula held in the oviduct by two collars sutured to the ovarian end of the oviduct. Numerous oviducal fluid collection systems have been used with varying degrees of success.

This study investigates the vertical transmission of maternal microbiota in chickens and how it is modulated by maternal soyasaponin supplementation. Using a model spanning the reproductive tract, egg components, and developing chicks, we show that maternal gut and reproductive microbiota, including Bifidobacterium adolescentis (B.
