  • The Morphology, Androgenic Function, Hyperplasia, and Tumors of the Human Ovarian Hilus Cells * William H
    THE MORPHOLOGY, ANDROGENIC FUNCTION, HYPERPLASIA, AND TUMORS OF THE HUMAN OVARIAN HILUS CELLS * WILLIAM H. STERNBERG, M.D. (From the Department of Pathology, School of Medicine, Tulane University of Louisiana and the Charity Hospital of Louisiana, New Orleans, La.) The hilus of the human ovary contains nests of cells morphologically identical with testicular Leydig cells, and which, in all probability, pro- duce androgens. Multiple sections through the ovarian hilus and meso- varium will reveal these small nests microscopically in at least 8o per cent of adult ovaries; probably in all adult ovaries if sufficient sections are made. Although they had been noted previously by a number of authors (Aichel,l Bucura,2 and von Winiwarter 3"4) who failed to recog- nize their significance, Berger,5-9 in 1922 and in subsequent years, pre- sented the first sound morphologic studies of the ovarian hilus cells. Nevertheless, there is comparatively little reference to these cells in the American medical literature, and they are not mentioned in stand- ard textbooks of histology, gynecologic pathology, nor in monographs on ovarian tumors (with the exception of Selye's recent "Atlas of Ovarian Tumors"10). The hilus cells are found in clusters along the length of the ovarian hilus and in the adjacent mesovarium. They are, almost without excep- tion, found in contiguity with the nonmyelinated nerves of the hilus, often in intimate relationship to the abundant vascular and lymphatic spaces in this area. Cytologically, a point for point correspondence with the testicular Leydig cells can be established in terms of nuclear and cyto- plasmic detail, lipids, lipochrome pigment, and crystalloids of Reinke.

  • Glossary of Terms
    Term English Definition Abstinence Sexual abstinence is not having vaginal, anal or oral sex. Acne Secretions from the skin's oil glands that plug the pores. Antibiotics Powerful medicines that fight bacterial infections. Anus The anus is the opening in the buttock where waste leaves the body. Bacteria A type of germ that can cause infections. Cervix the lower, narrow part of the uterus (womb) located between the bladder and the rectum. It forms a canal that opens into the vagina, which leads to the outside of the body. Chlamydia Chlamydia is caused by a type of bacteria, which can be passed from person to person during vaginal sex, oral sex, or anal sex. Condoms Condoms come in male and female versions. The male condom (“rubber”) covers the penis and catches the sperm after a man ejaculates. The female condom is a thin plastic pouch that lines the vagina. Consent Permission for something to happen or be done, or agreement to do something. Contraception Intentional use of methods or techniques to prevent pregnancy. Discharge Fluid that carries dead cells and bacteria out of the vagina. Estrogen a group of hormones secreted by the ovaries which affect many aspects of the female body, including a woman's menstrual cycle and normal sexual and reproductive development. Fallopian Tube One of two tubes through which an egg travels from the ovary to the uterus. Fertile the ability to become pregnant. Genital Herbes Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted infection (STI). It is caused by a virus called herpes simplex virus (HSV).

When puberty starts, your brain sends signals to certain parts of the body to start growing and changing. These signals are called hormones. Hormones make your body change and start looking more like an adult’s (see FAQ041 “Your Changing Body—Especially for Teens”). Hormones also can cause emotional changes. What emotional changes occur during puberty? During your teen years, hormones can cause you to have strong feelings, including sexual feelings. You may have these feelings for someone of the other sex or the same sex. Thinking about sex or just wanting to hear or read about sex is normal. It is normal to want to be held and touched by others.

  • And Theca Interna Cells from Developing Preovulatory Follicles of Pigs B
    Differential production of steroids by dispersed granulosa and theca interna cells from developing preovulatory follicles of pigs B. K. Tsang, L. Ainsworth, B. R. Downey and G. J. Marcus * Reproductive Biology Unit, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Department of Physiology, University of Ottawa, Ottawa Civic Hospital, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Kl Y 4E9 ; tAnimal Research Centre, Agriculture Canada, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada K1A 0C6; and \Department of Animal Science, Macdonald College of McGill University, Ste Anne de Bellevue, Quebec, Canada H9X ICO Summary. Dispersed granulosa and theca interna cells were recovered from follicles of prepubertal gilts at 36, 72 and 108 h after treatment with 750 i.u. PMSG, followed 72 h later with 500 i.u. hCG to stimulate follicular growth and ovulation. In the absence of aromatizable substrate, theca interna cells produced substantially more oestrogen than did granulosa cells. Oestrogen production was increased markedly in the presence of androstenedione and testosterone in granulosa cells but only to a limited extent in theca interna cells. The ability of both cellular compartments to produce oestrogen increased up to 72 h with androstenedione being the preferred substrate. Oestrogen production by the two cell types incubated together was greater than the sum produced when incubated alone. Theca interna cells were the principal source of androgen, predominantly androstenedione. Thecal androgen production increased with follicular development and was enhanced by addition of pregnenolone or by LH 36 and 72 h after PMSG treatment. The ability of granulosa and thecal cells to produce progesterone increased with follicular development and addition of pregnenolone. After exposure of developing follicles to hCG in vivo, both cell types lost their ability to produce oestrogen.

    The University Of Jordan Faculty Of Medicine Female genital system By Dr.Ahmed Salman Assistant Professor of Anatomy &Embryology Female Genital Organs This includes : 1. Ovaries 2. Fallopian tubes 3. Uterus 4. Vagina 5. External genital organs Ovaries Site of the Ovary: In the ovarian fossa in the lateral wall of the pelvis which is bounded. Anteriorly : External iliac vessels. Posteriorly : internal iliac vessels and ureter. Shape : the ovary is almond-shaped. Orientation : In the nullipara : long axis is vertical with superior and inferior poles. In multipara : long axis is horizontal, so that the superior pole is directed laterally and the inferior pole is directed medially. External Features : Before puberty : Greyish-pink and smooth. After puberty with onset of ovulation, the ovary becomes grey in colour with puckered surface. In old age : it becomes atrophic External iliac vessels. Obturator N. Internal iliac artery Ureter UTERUS Ovaries Description : In nullipara, the ovary has : Two ends : superior (tubal) end and inferior (uterine) end. Two borders : anterior (mesovarian) border and posterior (free) border. Two surfaces : lateral and medial. A. Ends of the Ovary : Superior (tubal) end : is attached to the ovarian fimbria of the uterine tube and is attached to side wall of the pelvis by the ovarian suspensory ligament. Inferior (uterine) end : it is connected to superior aspect of the uterotubal junction by the round ligament of the ovary which runs within the broad ligament . B. Borders of the Ovary : Anterior (mesovarian) border :presents the hilum of the ovary and is attached to the upper layer of the broad ligament by a short peritoneal fold called the mesovarium.
