Resumen: Introducción: Trichinella spiralis es un nemátodo tisular que se aloja en el músculo esquelético de humanos y otros mamíferos y causa una serie de alteraciones fisiológicas. Las proteínas de los productos de excreción-secreción de T. spiralis juegan un papel importante en la aparición...

Leptin and leptin receptor are expressed only in clear cells of rat epididymis epithelia

Int. j. morphol; 35 (4), 2017
SUMMARY: Leptin is a 16 kilodaltons hormone secreted by adipose tissue and in the past few years it has been related to the reproductive system regulation. Leptin and its receptor (OBR) have been described in several reproductive organs and in different species but, in epididymis, there is still a lack o...
