The epididymal sperm maturation, comprises a series of morphological and biochemical events that alter sequentially to sperm during its transit along the epididymal tubule, which gives them the necessary characteristics to properly perform the oocyte fertilization. It is considered that in most mammals studied, the maturation ends in the distal...
Se registraron 18 especies de Caulerpa en México distribuidas en 304 localidades. El análisis de parsimonia de endemismos (PAE) se realizó para identificar los patrones de distribución de las especies, usando dos unidades geográficas de análisis: una cuadrícula de 2º de latitud x 2º de longitud y las ecorregiones marinas...
UN is a condition that damages the cellular functions of the body progressive way. Is the cause of 45% of global deaths in children under 5 years of age; It has been widely studied the effects at cytogenetic level, however for gene level not have enough reports to show if...
Breast cancer is one of the most common neoplasia in the world and is the leading cause of cancer death in women in Mexico. Its high mortality is due mainly to its great metastatic capacity, which is associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). During this process, a decrease in the expression...
The phylum Cnidarian contains about 11,000 species, the jellyfishes has cells specialized (cnidocitos) that contain toxins; this toxins have the potential to be a tool with which to study some complex physiological systems, in addition to being used for the manufacture of new drugs and obtaining knowledge of its operation...
Under laboratory conditions male sexual behavior usually is analyzed using a standard arena (SA), consisting of a rectangular or cylindrical chamber, in which a male rat is paired with a receptive female (RECF). However in previous studies, it has been shown that sexual behavior in rat can be modified when...
Epididymal sperm maturation is the process of mammalian spermatozoa, in which they acquire their ability to fertilize the egg after its transit through the epididymis. This transit is not passive, the spermatozoids undergo morphophysiological and biochemical changes, which are responsible for acquiring the characteristics necessary to fertilize. For many decades...
The objective of this research was to determine the capacitation indicators and acrosome reaction in sperm of Harris hawk (Parabuteo unicinctus) in freshly ejaculates and cryopreserved with dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and glicerol, as well as the parameters of viability, motility and morphology in each treatment. Heterologous perivitelline layer was implemented as...
This study was designed to evaluate the efficiency of bovine embryo vitrification in the morula stage, using Ethylene Glycol (EG) and trehalose in the beveled straw (beveled edge straw; BES) and its effects in viability and development potential after devitrification. For embryo production in vitro (IVP) ovaries were collected at...
The Oocyte have the inherent ability to reprogram the sperm nucleus to form an embryo, which result in a new organism; nevertheless, also it has the ability to reprogram the nucleus of differentiated somatic cell, as it has been shown in Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer (SCNT). Cytoplasmic extracts of Germinal...
