Oviductal, not oviducal

The Anatomical Record, 1989
AbstractBoth etymologically and in literal meaning the term “oviductal” is overwhelmingly preferable to “oviducal.”

Mouse Oviduct Development

2012
The oviduct, or Fallopian tube in humans, transports oocytes and sperm, serves as the site of fertilization, and supports early embryonic development. The oviduct is essential for fertility. In the mouse, the oviduct is a coiled, complex structure that develops from the simple embryonic Müllerian duct.

Autotransfer of day 4 embryos from oviduct to oviduct versus oviduct to uterus in the mare

Theriogenology, 1987
Embryo autotransfer is defined as the collection of an embryo from and the transfer of this embryo into the same animal. The objectives of this study were to: 1) test the hypothesis that oviduct transport of the equine embryo from the oviduct into the uterus is not dependent on a unilateral embryo-corpus luteum interaction, 2) develop an embryo ...

Human oviductal fluid proteins

Fertility and Sterility, 1981
The popularity of mini-laparotomy provided an opportunity to easily collect human oviductal fluid (HOF). Volumes of HOF produced by two oviducts per 24 hours correlated positively with serum estradiol determinations, while protein concentration in HOF was inversely proportional to estrogen levels.

Prostaglandins and Oviduct al Function

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1983
This review presents evidence of a specific involvement of PGs in the function of the human Fallopian tube. A role of PGE and PGF in ovum transport seems plausible, but data from human studies are still fragmentary. High estrogen levels in tissue at ovulation may cause 'tubal lock' by increasing the activity of the isthmic musculature.

Co‐culture, oviduct secretion and the function of oviduct‐specific glycoproteins.

Cell Biology International, 1994
AbstractCo‐cultures of embryos with somatic cells, usually in the form of monolayers, or conditioned medium from these somatic cells, results in development past the early stage blocks and the formation of hatched blastocysts. Optimum rates of development are not achieved, however, and the task is to investigate components of the oviduct that are ...

Cannulation of the equine oviduct and chemical analysis of oviduct fluid

Theriogenology, 1979
Siliconized rubber tubes were used to cannulate one oviduct in 7 mares, and secretions were collected in a polycarbonate container located externally, in the region of the left paralumbar fossa. Secretion rates were recorded daily during the estrous cycle.

Secreted Proteins of the Oviduct

Cells Tissues Organs, 2000
During late follicular development and estrus, the mammalian oviduct undergoes specific physiological and biochemical modifications which contribute to an optimization of the microenvironment for fertilization and early cleavage-stage embryonic development. These changes appear to be hormonally regulated by ovarian steroids, most importantly, estrogen.
