#ovary — Public Fediverse posts

Reproductive organs from different species contain conserved features and cell types. This study analyzes single-cell transcriptomes
of two #Drosophila species, showing that some #testis cell types are hotspots for gene expression #evolution, while #ovary cell types are more conserved.

“provides evidence that, on an evolutionary level, some ovarian genes, cell types and mechanisms driving egg release were established in the last common ancestor shared by what are now bat sea stars and humans more than 500 million years ago”

The open access article in Molecular Human Reproduction.
“the post-reproductive ovary could be a source of pro-inflammatory signaling mediators with the potential to modulate extra-ovarian tissues. These findings challenge the assumption that the post-reproductive ovary is inert, instead indicating that it acquires an immune identity with potential endocrine and paracrine influence on whole-body aging.”

Oocytes give rise to embryos that begin life with restored developmental potential and youthful molecular organization. This Essay reframes ovarian biology as a model for #rejuvenation rather than solely as a site of reproductive decline.

🌸 "Fruit set" is the #ovary-to-#fruit transition
🍒 Molecular, hormonal, and metabolic mechanisms of this process in horticultural #crops are reviewed here, including the role of SlIAA9 and SlDELLA/PROCERA in #tomato #auxin and #gibberellin #signalling.

News to me: the most lethal and most common kinds of high-grade cancers actually had their origin in the fallopian tube rather than the #ovary. So some are rec some women should have fallopian tubes removed to avoid #OvarianCancer https://medicalxpress.com/news/2023-02-women-fallopian-tubes-ovarian-cancer.html #WomensHealth
