Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine if inhalation of mainstream (MS) or sidestream (SS) smoke affects the reproductive organs of female hamsters. Females inhaled smoke from one or two cigarettes twice per day for 30 d prior to mating using a smoking machine equipped for nose breathing. Serum cotinine levels were within the ranges found in active and passive humans smokers. On day 7 of pregnancy, the reproductive organs of controls and smokers were evaluated for the total number of corpora lutea (CL), the percentage of normal, pink, and small CL, the vascular area in the CL, the ultrastructure of the oviductal epithelium, the ratio of ciliated to secretory cells in the ampulla of the oviduct, the stretchability of the uterine horns, the percentage of implantation sites, and the percentage of touching implantation sites. All parameters, except the percentages of implantation sites and of small CL, were affected by exposure to smoke. To determine if the effects of smoking on the ovary and uterus could be reversed, females smoked for 30 d, remained in their cages without smoking for 30 d, and then were mated and evaluated on day 7 of pregnancy. In this reversal experiment, all ovarian and uterine parameters (except total CL)...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
