In amphibians and lungfishes, the oviduct is a simple ciliated tube, lined with mucus -secreting glands that produce the jelly that surrounds the ovum. In all other vertebrates, there is normally some degree of specialisation of the tube, depending on the type of eggs produced.

2024年10月9日 · The uterine tubes (or fallopian tubes, oviducts, salpinx) are muscular ‘J-shaped’ tubes, found in the female reproductive tract. They lie in the upper border of the broad ligament, extending laterally from the uterus, opening into the abdominal cavity, near the ovaries.

2023年7月24日 · Fallopian tubes, otherwise called oviducts or uterine tubes, are hollow seromuscular organs that originate at the uterine horns, extend laterally within the superior edge of the mesosalpinx of the broad ligament, and terminate near the ipsilateral ovary.

The fallopian tubes, also known as uterine tubes, oviducts [1] or salpinges (sg.: salpinx), are paired tubular sex organs in the human female body that stretch from the ovaries to the uterus. The fallopian tubes are part of the female reproductive system .

2023年10月28日 · The fallopian tubes are also known as oviducts or uterine tubes. Medical procedures that block the fallopian tubes can be used as a form of permanent contraception, or sterilization.

With an increasing understanding of roles of the oviduct at the cellular and molecular levels, current research signifies the importance of the oviduct on naturally conceived fertilization and pre-implantation embryo development.

2020年7月10日 · The fallopian tube(s) – also known as “uterine tubes” or “oviducts”- are two hollow ducts in the female reproduction system where oocyte fertilization occurs. There are two tubes present in the system, where each extends from the uterus in the right and left directions and ends near the right and left corresponding ovaries.

After a long journey, the spermatozoa meet the oocyte in the specific site of the oviduct named ampulla, and fertilization takes place. The successful fertilization depends on several biological processes which occur in the oviduct some hours before this …

2025年1月22日 · fallopian tube, either of a pair of long narrow ducts located in the human female abdominal cavity that transport male sperm cells to the egg, provide a suitable environment for fertilization, and transport the egg from the ovary, where it is produced, to the central channel (lumen) of the uterus.

2017年1月12日 · The oviducts (or fallopian tubes in humans) are divided into 3 segments: infundibulum (adjacent to the ovary), ampulla (site of fertilization), and isthmus (connected to the uterus). Each of these segments is made up of epithelial, stromal, and smooth muscle cells.
