Prof. Dr., 2Lecturer Dr., 3Lecturer, Department of Anatomy and Histology/College of Veterinary Medicine/ University of Kerbala Abstract Objectives: Alternative plants Medicine has been considered one of the world’s most important solutions to female reproductive diseases. The goal of the current study however, was to evaluate the mains histological changes that follow the use of seeds of (Trigonellatibetana) on ovary folliculogenisis. Method: Twelve’s female healthy rabbits, in animal house all experimental animals have been adapted. For this study, animals were taken distributed into two groups, control administrated by distal water (5 ml/ kg b.w) and treatment group was administered by Trigonellatibetana extract at a dose of 2g/kgb.w/orally administration during 2 week for 3 time daily. Results: The present study finding the numerouschanges happened in the ovary, the mains variance has been noticed increase the numbers of primordial and atretic follicles in treatment group and increase in size of follicles. Moreover, the theca interna was thickness and has a thicker layers of collagen than control group. Conclusions: Such results indicate that (Trigonellatibetana) was considered to be suitable for early fertility period arrival. Keywords: Histological, Trigonellatibetana, folliculogenisis, rabbits.

Results: Macroscopically, while 5 tumors had solid appearance, 2 tumors were composed of solid and cystic areas. All the Our findings support the conclusion that sclerosing stromal tumors were in shape of ovarian masses with good limits. tumors are benign–character tumors that stem from over stroma Microscopically, two types of cells were observed as fusiform and are hormonally active tumors because of the detected clinical fibroblast-like cells and theca-like cells with vacuolised and immunohistochemical results, although no hormonal effect cytoplasm.

  • A Contribution to the Morphology of the Human Urino-Genital Tract
    APPENDIX. A CONTRIBUTION TO THE MORPHOLOGY OF THE HUMAN URINOGENITAL TRACT. By D. Berry Hart, M.D., F.R.C.P. Edin., etc., Lecturer on Midwifery and Diseases of Women, School of the Royal Colleges, Edinburgh, etc. Ilead before the Society on various occasions. In two previous communications I discussed the questions of the origin of the hymen and vagina. I there attempted to show that the lower ends of the Wolffian ducts enter into the formation of the former, and that the latter was Miillerian in origin only in its upper two-thirds, the lower third being formed by blended urinogenital sinus and Wolffian ducts. In following this line of inquiry more deeply, it resolved itself into a much wider question?viz., the morphology of the human urinogenital tract, and this has occupied much of my spare time for the last five years. It soon became evident that what one required to investigate was really the early history and ultimate fate of the Wolffian body and its duct, as well as that of the Miillerian duct, and this led one back to the fundamental facts of de- velopment in relation to bladder and bowel. The result of this investigation will therefore be considered under the following heads:? I. The Development of the Urinogenital Organs, Eectum, and External Genitals in the Human Fcetus up to the end of the First Month. The Development of the Permanent Kidney is not CONSIDERED. 260 MORPHOLOGY OF THE HUMAN URINOGENITAL TRACT, II. The Condition of these Organs at the 6th to 7th Week. III.

    CHAPTER VI M CARCTRbtJS OVARY 96 - The ovaries are female reproductive organ symmetr­ ical placed in pelvic region. They are situated on either side of the uterus, helow the follipian tubes. There is widest range of cancer in ovary. Ovary showed various types of cancerous condition in it. When avary showed papillary pattern called papillary adenocarcinoma, some times the cancer arises from the connective tissue. Though the acurnce of ovarian malignancy is more, less attention paid to mucosubstances in it. But major work did on its histological classification and about theraphy. I) Histological Observations of ITormal Ovary, for histological prepration the paraffin sections of 5M- were taken. Hematoxylene - Isoin stained prepration reveal&dJ the histological structure of ovary. The ovary showed germinal epithelium and central stroma. In stroma there were follicles. Germinal epithelium covers the ovary. The stroma is differentiated into cortex and medulla. The germinal epi­ thelium often spoken as a modified peritoneum. The stroma having primordial follicles. The primordial follicles then develops into graffian follicles. The structural parts in intrest for this investigation are the germinal epithelium as shown in Plate Ho.7, figs.l. II) Hlstochemlcal Observations of normal Ovary. The histochemical observations of different techniques - 97 - are given in table Fo.6. These reactions about mucosub- etances are illustrated photomicrograph!cally in plate N9. 7, Pigs. 2 to 3. A) Germinal Epithelium. The germinal epithelium showed intense PAS reactivity (Pig.2). The staining intensity gets reduced after saliva or amylase digestion, showed presence of glycogen. The PAS activity reduced prior to phenylahydraline treatment showed probable presence of neutral and acidic mucosubstances.

  • Connective Tissue Learning Objectives * Understand the Feature and Classification of the Connective Tissue
    Connective Tissue Learning objectives * Understand the feature and classification of the connective tissue. * Understand the structure and function of varied composition of the loose connective tissue. * Know the composition of the matrix. * Know the features of fibers. * Know the composition of the ground substance. * Know the basic structure and function of the dense connective tissue, reticular tissue and adipose tissue. General characteristic: - Connective tissue is formed by cells and extracellular matrix (ECM). - It differ from the epithelium. - It has a small number of cells and a large amount of extracellular matrix. - The cells in C. T have no polarity. That means they have no the free surface and the basal surface. - They are scattered throughout the ECM. - The extracellular matrix is composed of . fibers ( constitute the formed elements) , an . amorphous ground substance and . tissue fluid. - Connective tissue originate from the mesenchyme, which is embryonal C. T. The cells have multiple developmental potentialities. They have the bility to differentiate different kinds of C. T cells, endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells. - Connective tissue forms a vast and continuous compartment throughout the body, bounded by the basal laminae of the various epithelia and by the basal or external laminae of muscle cells and nerve-supporting cells. - Different types of connective tissue are responsible for a variety of functions. Functions of connective tissues: The functions of the various connective tissues are reflected in the types of cells and fibers present within the tissue and the composition of the ground substance in the ECM. - Binding and packing of tissue ……….CT Proper; - Connect, anchor and support………...Tendon and ligament; - Transport of metabolites……………..Through ground substance; - Defense against infection…………….Lymphocytes, macrophages; - Repair of injury……………………….Scar tissue; - Fat storage…………………………… Adipose tissue.

  • Enhanced Efficacy and Specificity of Epithelial Ovarian Carcinogenesis
    Huang et al. Journal of Ovarian Research 2012, 5:21 http://www.ovarianresearch.com/content/5/1/21 RESEARCH Open Access Enhanced efficacy and specificity of epithelial ovarian carcinogenesis by embedding a DMBA-coated cloth strip in the ovary of rat Yiping Huang1,2†, Wei Jiang1,2†, Yisheng Wang1,2, Yufang Zheng3, Qing Cong1,2 and Congjian Xu1,2,4* Abstract Background: Ovarian cancer is predominant of epithelial cell origin and often present at an advanced stage with poor prognosis. Most animal models of ovarian carcinoma yield thecal/granulose cell tumors, rather than adenocarcinomas. The best reported induction rate of adenocarcinoma in rats is 10-45% by an ovarian implantation of 7, 12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) coated silk suture. We provided an improved procedure to construct the model by the ovarian implantation of DMBA-coated cloth strip. Methods: A sterile suture (as S group) or a piece of cloth strip (as CS group) was soaked in DMBA before ovarian implantation in Wistar rats. Tumor size, incidence rate and pathological type were analyzed. Results: Ovarian tumors in rats of CS group were first noted at 16 wk post implantation and reached a cumulative incidence of 75% (96/128) at 32 wk, while the tumor incidence rate in S group at 32 wk was only 46.25% (37/80). The tumor size in CS group (3.63 ± 0.89 cm) was larger than that of S group (2.44 ± 1.89 cm) (P < 0.05). In CS group, there were only two types of tumor formed: adenocarcinoma (90/96) and sarcoma (6/96).
