Describe the functions of the female fallopian tube and the ovary. Why are the testes located outside the body? List four differences between the male and female pelvis. Describe the location, structure, and function of the ovaries. Describe at least 3 similarities between the male and...
Figla is a germ-cell-specific transcription factor associated with ovary development and differentiation. In vertebrates, one transcriptional form ofFiglais commonly found. However, besides the common form of this gene (namedFigla_tv1), a new transcriptional form (namedFigla_tv2) was identified in...
In teleosts,Figlahas commonly been regarded as a marker gene of ovary development or early oocyte differentiation, but studies examining the regulation and roles ofFiglain gonad development are limited13,14,15. Half-smooth tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis) is an economically important marine flatfis...
which was namedARR17(Arabidopsis Response Regulator 17)29. In the present study, in another poplar speciesP. deltoides, we characterize the regulation and functions of candidate sex-determining genes. Our results suggest how dioecy may have evolved inP. deltoides, and support the ...
As a highly vascularized organ, the ovarian structures and functions change in response to external stimuli that include but are not limited to pituitary gonadotropins. Following stimulation, the ovary synthesizes and releases autocrine and paracrine signals that play unique roles in regulating its ...
Inflammation is suggested to contribute to the development and progression of various female malignancies [48]. IL-17 has been identified in various tumors, including ovarian cancers [49, 50]. Several studies suggested potent anti-tumor functions of IL-17 and IL-17-producing cells [51,52,53],...
The computational KEGG and GO analysis show that the CLIP1 and DMD share some biological processes and functions. Besides, we found that the SNPs between DMD and its RNA partners may be associated with Becker muscular dystrophy, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, Dilated cardiomyopathy 3B and ...
Identify the hormone from the given function: Stimulates the secretion of thyroid hormones. a. What hormones are produced by the Adrenal medulla? b. What are the functions of these hormones? Which hormone triggers ovulation? What hormone does the corpus luteum synthesize and secrete? a. Estrogen...
similar to primates10. Due to results of previous studies, it is now well established that ovarian neurons are derived from neural crest cells, which form with complete ovarian maturation and subsequent reproductive functions11. Noradrenergic nerves are expressed in the ovary near birth12. It has ...
4A). Given that piwi functions in both somatic and germ cells, we determined whether the expression of mili and miwi is limited to germ cells or it is also found in Sertoli cells. We carried out Northern blots from testes obtained from normal mice and W/Wv mice lacking spermatogenesis ...
