[Cyclic changes in the uterine tube epithelium in women]. 1981

Morphometric and histochemical investigations have been performed in epithelium of the fallopian tubes in 108 women operated on various gynecological diseases. Among them the following groups have been detected: with a constant menstrual cycle, uterine pregnancy, chronic estrogenia, menopause and a prolonged age menopause. The data obtained demonstrate that the height of the epithelial covering, part the relative amount of the cilial cells and contents of glycogen and lipids in their cytoplasm depend on the character of the ovarian hormonal activity. During the folliculin phase of the menstrual cycle, a certain proliferation of the cilial cells and accumulation of glycogen (in the fimbrial part) and lipids (in the ampullar part) of their cytoplasm is noted. At a chronic estrogenic stimulation, this process can turn into a glandulo-papillary epithelial hyperplasia of the endosalpinx. Administration of yellow body hormones during the lutein phase of the menstrual cycle produces focal desquamation of the cilial epithelium, which acquires a diffuse character in the fallopian tubes of pregnant women and is accompanied with a decreased amount of glycogen in cytoplasm of epitheliocytes and release of lipids into the oviductal lumen.

D007889 Leiomyoma A benign tumor derived from smooth muscle tissue, also known as a fibroid tumor. They rarely occur outside of the UTERUS and the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT but can occur in the SKIN and SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE, probably arising from the smooth muscle of small blood vessels in these tissues.

D008593 Menopause The last menstrual period. Permanent cessation of menses (MENSTRUATION) is usually defined after 6 to 12 months of AMENORRHEA in a woman over 45 years of age. In the United States, menopause generally occurs in women between 48 and 55 years of age. Change of Life, Female
D008598 Menstruation The periodic shedding of the ENDOMETRIUM and associated menstrual bleeding in the MENSTRUAL CYCLE of humans and primates. Menstruation is due to the decline in circulating PROGESTERONE, and occurs at the late LUTEAL PHASE when LUTEOLYSIS of the CORPUS LUTEUM takes place.
D008599 Menstruation Disturbances Variations of MENSTRUATION which may be indicative of disease.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D011247 Pregnancy The status during which female mammals carry their developing young (EMBRYOS or FETUSES) in utero before birth, beginning from FERTILIZATION to BIRTH. Gestation,Pregnancies

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.
