A novel actin isoform is expressed in the ovotestis of Aplysia californica

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology - B Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2005
The actin family encodes a large number of protein isoforms with quasi-identical primary structure but distinct function and localization. In oocytes, actin is known to play important roles in different processes such as those leading to fertilization or to mRNA localization during oogenesis.

TERATOCARCINOMA IN OVOTESTIS

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH, 2021
Ovotestis refers to the presence of a gonad with histological existence of both ovaian follicles and Testicular tubular elements; this condition is labelled as True hermaphroditism. The gonads may be ovotestis bilateral or they may be ovary or testis on one side and an ovotestis on the other.

Infertility in a ewe as a result of ovotestis

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1992
A ewe with apparently normal estrous cycles was unable to conceive as a result of a single ovotestis. The ovotestis was diagnosed on the basis of results from laparoscopic examination, human chorionic gonadotropin stimulation, and histologic examination of the gonad.

TRUE HERMAPHRODITISM; ENDOCRINE STUDIES IN A CASE OF OVOTESTIS

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1947
THE occurrence of both male and female gonads in one person is of sufficient rarity to invite thorough study of such a case. Pseudohermaphroditism is not uncommon, but the occurrence in one person of one ovary and testis, or an ovotestis, proved histologically, has been reported only 40 times in the literature (1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7).

Why the Ovotestis ofHelix aspersais Innervated

Acta Biologica Hungarica, 2004
Although Schmalz described the innervation of the ovotestis in pulmonate snails as early as 1914, no functions have been attributed to it. In H. aspersa, the intestinal nerve branches profusely within the ovotestis and terminates in the walls of the acini and in the sheath surrounding the early portion of the hermaphroditic duct.

Nephroblastoma in an Ovotestis of a True Hermaphrodite: A Case Report

Journal of Urology, 1987
We describe a patient who presented with a painful mass in the left inguinoscrotal region, gynecomastia, perineal hypospadias with chordee and a bifid scrotum with a small gonad in the right hemiscrotum. At operation the left mass was found to be an ovotestis with hemorrhage in a corpus luteum cyst. A rudimentary uterus and fallopian tube were situated

Sex-Chromatinbestimmung bei Ovotestis

Zeitschrift f�r Zellforschung und Mikroskopische Anatomie, 1966
Der bereits 1955 ausfuhrlich beschriebene Fall eines Hermaphroditismus verus mit Ovotestis rechts und einem Ovarium links wird erneut aufgegriffen und zwar unter dem Aspekt der Kerngeschlechtsbestimmung verschiedener Ovotestis-Zellarten. Theca-, Rete-, Leydig- sowie Hodenkanalchenzellen erwiesen sich als Sex-Chromatin positiv.
