[Age dependent changes in the collagen content of the human oviduct]. 1986

R Schultka, and H Kirschke, and J Peil

On the basis of present investigations, namely on account of the hydroxyproline determinations and the biomathematical analysis of data, the ageing of the human Fallopian tube with regard to its collagen content can be characterized as follows: Collagen concentration of the oviduct increases slightly and almost linearly up to the 5th decade of woman life. In the 2nd half of the fifth decade, i.e. already in the premenopausal years, this increase is accelerated, then changing into a yet almost linear but stronger rise of the collagen content.

D005187 Fallopian Tubes A pair of highly specialized canals extending from the UTERUS to its corresponding OVARY. They provide the means for OVUM transport from the ovaries and they are the site of the ovum's final maturation and FERTILIZATION. The fallopian tube consists of an interstitium, an isthmus, an ampulla, an infundibulum, and fimbriae. Its wall consists of three layers: serous, muscular, and an internal mucosal layer lined with both ciliated and secretory cells.
