Abstract:

Previous studies have reported on propagation of individual spikes in isolated segments of the pregnant uterus, but there is no information on patterns of spike propagation in the intact organ. There is also no information on propagation of myometrial burst. The aim of this study was to record, at high resolution, patterns of propagation of electrical activities in the pregnant uterus. Sixteen timed-pregnant guinea pigs were euthanized at term, and their uteruses isolated. Fetuses were removed and replaced by an equal amount of Tyrode. A 240-electrode array was positioned at various locations

Abstract:

The mammalian uterus is composed of a preponderance of small smooth muscle cells usually aligned in two layers. The number of muscle cells in the human uterus at term is estimated at 200 billion, each minute fusiform cell measuring about 5–10μm in diameter and about 200μm in length. The main function of the uterus is to harbour the developing fetus during pregnancy and then to contract vigorously during labour to expel the products of conception. In order for the uterus to contract rhythmically and forcefully, a mechanism must exist to allow interaction between muscle cells in order to achieve

Abstract:

In the current study, we investigated the expression and activity of ACE2 during pregnancy in normotensive and hypertensive rats, focusing on the relative contribution of the uterus and the placentas, the kidney serving as a reference. We used the Sabra rat model of salt-sensitive hypertension. We confirmed a systemic vasodilatory state during the third trimester of pregnancy, as evidenced by a reduction in blood pressure, both in normotensive and hypertensive rats. At the time that blood pressure was reduced, ACE2 was expressed abundantly in the reproductive organs. The relative levels of ACE

Abstract:

We characterized the innervation of isolated circular and longitudinal-oriented muscle strips from the nulliparous rabbit uterus and cervix by field stimulation (FS). FS with increasing frequency (2.5–50 pps) and voltage (2.5–70 V) caused graded increases in isometric contraction with no relaxation or inhibition of spontaneous activity. Tetrodotoxin(TTX, 3.1 × 10−6 M) significantly reduced the FS response by 75% in all strips at higher stimulus frequencies. Contractile responses to FS were also significantly inhibited by atropine (3.5 × 10−6 M) in circular uterus and in longitudinal cervix. Gu

Abstract:

The human uterus mainly consists of the endometrium and the outer smooth muscle layer termed the myometrium. The uterus harbours the exceptional and remarkable regenerative ability responsible for cyclical regeneration and remodelling throughout the reproductive life. The uterus must swiftly and cooperatively enlarge to hold the growing foetus during pregnancy. Furthermore, the endometrium, in particular the functionalis layer, must also regenerate, differentiate and regress with each menstrual cycle under hormonal control. Endometrial regeneration from the basal layer is thought to contribute

Abstract:

Fluctuations in circulating estrogen and progesterone levels associated with the estrous cycle alter circadian rhythms of physiology and behavior in female rodents. Endogenously applied estrogen shortens the period of the locomotor activity rhythm in rodents. We recently found that estrogen implants affect Period ( Per) gene expression in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN; central clock) and uterus of rats in vivo. To explore whether estrogen directly influences the circadian clock in the SCN and/or tissues of the reproductive system, we examined the effects of 17β-estradiol (E2) on PER2::LUCIF

Abstract:

In pregnancy the uterus and its contents constitute a growing mass of tissue with an increasing need for oxygen and substrates. Muscle activity is associated with an even more dramatic increase in metabolic demands. One might question if the physiological adaptations are adequate to provide for the combined demands of exercise and pregnancy.

Abstract:

Thyroid hormones are known to influence various processes of cell differentiation. Recently, it was reported that hypothyroidism reduces the sensitivity to Ca2+-channel antagonists in the rat uterus. We examined the sensitivity to dihydropyridines of the uterus from mice that had reduced thyroid hormone levels. Isradipine relaxed with the same potency precontracted uterine muscle strips from control and hypothyroid mice, independently from a pseudo-pregnant state. These results demonstrate that hypothyroidism does not change dihydropyridine sensitivity (i.e., the pattern of Ca2+-channel expres

Abstract:

Ovarian and uterine transplantation are procedures gaining more attention again because of potential applications in respectively fertility preservation for cancer and other patients and, more tentatively, women with uterine agenesis or hysterectomy. Cryopreservation of tissue slices, and possibly whole organs, is providing opportunities for banking ovaries for indefinite periods before transplanting them back to restore fertility. The natural plasticity of this organ facilitates grafting to different sites where they can be revascularized and rapidly restore the normal physiology of secretion

Abstract:

The uterine cervix is a remarkable structure, which plays an essential role in pregnancy. During the development of the conceptus within the uterus, the cervix usually remains firmly closed to ensure that the developing fetus attains an appropriate degree of maturity to permit extra-uterine survival. On the other hand, it prepares for labour and birth, by undergoing a process of effacement, whereby the substance of the cervix shortens and thins out. During labour, it must be stretched and dilated to a sufficient diameter, usually about 10cm at term, to allow the successful passage of the fetus

Abstract:

The boundaries of human space exploration continue to expand with new technology and discoveries making it even more important to investigate the effects of space on biological systems. Although humans have explored space in small increments, reproductive studies must be conducted to determine if stable short- or long-term residences for humans can exist in space. This study explored the effects of whole-body proton radiation on uterine smooth muscle known as the myometrium. Two types of mice utilized in this study were C57BL/6 and B6.129S6Cybbtm1Din/J NOX2 knockout mice. C57BL/6 mice are stan

Abstract:

The mare experiences a transient innate immune response to breeding, the resolution of which is crucial for optimal fertility. The majority of mares are able to modulate this inflammation in a timely fashion, but a subpopulation exists which fail to do so and are considered susceptible to persistent breeding-induced endometritis (PBIE). Seminal plasma has been shown to modulate aspects of this inflammation. Recently, two seminal plasma proteins have garnered interest for their immune modulating properties: cysteine-rich secretory protein-3 (CRISP-3) and lactoferrin. These proteins have been fo

Abstract:

Pregnancy is associated with profound anatomical, physiological, biochemical, and endocrine changes that affect multiple organs and systems. One fertilized egg cell implanted in the lining of uterus initiates countless bodily changes. Secretion of ovarian hormones increases greatly. The bone marrow produces more RBCs and blood volume increases. The heart enlarges slightly to handle an extra supply of blood and shifts its position as uterus enlarges with the growing fetus. Such changes are necessary to help women adapt to the pregnant state and to support the growth and survival of the fetus. Such anatomical and physiological changes can also create confusion during a pregnant woman's clinical review. Likewise, changes in the biochemistry of blood during pregnancy may cause difficulties in interpreting tests. Hence, there is need to understand the deviation from normal anatomical, physiological, biochemical, and endocrine changes occurring during pregnancy so as to plan appropriate strategies for better maternal and fetal health.

Abstract:

Central problems in sheep and dairy cattle production are reproductive failure due to embryonic/fetal mortality and low birth weights, especially in prolific breeds, and reduced milk yields which adversely affect neonatal survival and economy of production. The sheep placenta expresses lactogenic (ovine placental lactogen, oPL) and somatogenic (ovine placental growth hormone, oGH) hormones. Our research has focused on the biological roles of oPL and oGH in function of the uterine endometrium during gestation and the mammary gland during pregnancy and lactation. Major conclusions were that: ( 1
