BACKGROUND: Endometrial angiogenesis is important for bleeding control and fertility, and is believed to be regulated by angiogenic growth factors under the influence of ovarian steroids. OBJECTIVE: To document the pattern of expression of…
Small muscle strips were dissected from the circular and longitudinal muscle layers of the human oviduct. The preparations showed rhythmic spontaneous activity when perfused by Krebs-Ringer buffer. Excitatory effects of the prostaglandin (P…
This review presents evidence of a specific involvement of PGs in the function of the human Fallopian tube. A role of PGE and PGF in ovum transport seems plausible, but data from human studies are still fragmentary. High estrogen levels in …

The isthmic portion of the human fallopian tube was excised during surgery and the ampullary-isthmic junction was identified. Muscle strips (1-mm wide) were dissected from the outer longitudinal and the inner circular layers at this region …
