Journal ArticleDOI
A review of uterine structural modifications that influence conceptus implantation and development in sheep and goats
TL;DR: There are species variations in the nature and extent of uterine remodeling during pregnancy and the regulatory influence of these uterine wall modifications on conceptus survival, implantation and placentation in sheep and goats are discussed in this review.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trophoblast cells of ruminant placentas--A minireview.
TL;DR: Two morphologically and functionally distinct cell types have been recognized in the trophectoderm of the placenta of ruminant animals and the occurrence, morphological characteristics, and specialized functions of these trophoblast cells, in relation to conceptus nutrition and survival in utero are discussed.
Journal Article
The effects of oral administration of monosodium glutamate (msg) on the testicular morphology and cauda epididymal sperm reserves of young and adult male rats.
TL;DR: Observations suggest that monosodium glutamate may have adversely affected spermatogenesis by disrupting the hypothalamic-pituitarytestis regulatory axis, and not through any direct toxic effect on the testis.
Journal Article
Anatomy of the oropharynx and tongue of the African pied crow (Corvus albus)
TL;DR: It was concluded that the anatomical features of the oropharyngeal cavity and tongue of the African pied crow may be adaptations to the bird’s mode of food acquisition and feeding habits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of maternal nutrition on ovine foetoplacental development: A review of the role of insulin-like growth factors.
TL;DR: The intrauterine environment may impact the conceptus (embryo/foetus and associated extra-embryonic membranes) during 'critical periods' of development, when rapid cell divisions occur in various tissues of the body, and may alter expression of the foetal genome, and this may have lifelong consequences; a phenomenon known asfoetal programming.
