DOI: 10.1002/jcp.30988
Abstract: After mammalian ovulation, oocytes enter the oviduct, causing oocyte and oviduct changes. Some studies have shown that follicular fluid exosomes (FEVs) play an important role in this regulatory process, but the specific mechanism is remains… read more here.

Ovulatory follicular fluid induces sperm phagocytosis by neutrophils, but oviductal fluid around oestrus suppresses its inflammatory effect in the buffalo oviduct in vitro

DOI: 10.1002/mrd.23164
Abstract: We have recently shown that the conditioned media from bovine oviductal epithelial cell culture suppress sperm phagocytosis by neutrophils, suggesting that the oviduct around oestrus supplies the anti‐inflammatory microenvironment. To investigate the immune response of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00418-021-02065-x
Abstract: Diverse lines of evidence indicate that the mammalian oviduct makes important contributions to the complex process of reproduction other than being simply a conduit for the transport of gametes and embryos. The cumulative synthesis and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.anireprosci.2018.03.016
Abstract: Ovulation of South American Camelids is induced by mating. After copulation, sperm are stored into the oviduct to be released near ovulation time. To study whether copulation induces matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP2) secretion in the oviduct,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2017.10.058
Abstract: Abstract Gamete and embryo transport is an important function of the oviduct. This type of transport involves both smooth muscle contraction and epithelial cell secretions, and the former is mediated by prostaglandins (PGs) and their… read more here.
