CCR3 antagonist impairs estradiol-induced eosinophil migration to the uterus in ovariectomized mice

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 53 (1), 2020
Eosinophils are abundant in the reproductive tract, contributing to the remodeling and successful implantation of the embryo. However, the mechanisms by which eosinophils migrate into the uterus and their relationship to edema are still not entirely clear, since there are a variety of chemotactic factors...

Effect of testosterone on proliferation markers and apoptosis in breasts of ovariectomized rats

Abstract Objective To investigate the action of testosterone (T), isolated or associated with estradiol benzoate (EB), on the proliferation markers and apoptosis of breasts of ovariectomized rats. Methods A total of 48 castrated female Wistar rats were divided into 6 groups, and each of them were sub...

Analysis of Estrogen Effects on Eruption of Rat Molars

ABSTRACT: Tooth eruption requires resorption of the alveolar bone interposed between the tooth germ and the oral mucosa (coronal bone). The cells responsible for bone resorption are the osteoclasts and their activity can be reduced or inactivated by estrogen hormone. We aimed to investigate the effects o...
