Abusive and indiscriminate use of androgenic anabolic steroid is an usual practice among youth and adults of both sex. Usually these substances were utilized simultaneously with others drugs, licit or not, that causes damage to health. The purpose of study was to evaluate the influence of experimental administration of nandrolone decanoate steroid (ND), associated or not to alcohol, in the ovaries and uterus of adult rats. Females with regular estrous cycle (n = 20), were distributed in the groups: a) control (physiological solution); b) ND (7.5 mg/kg BW; intraperitoneal); c) alcohol (0.2 mL/100g BW; oral); d) ND + AL. The teatments were realized by single dose per week, during twelve consecutive weeks. The ovaries of rats in the groups ND, AL and ND + AL presented intense follicular atresia and decrease in the number of antral follicles and corpora lutea. None treatment did affect ovarian weight, but uterine weight was increase (p<0.05) in the ND + AL group. There were alterations in the uterine histology and morphometry at function of each treatment. Isolated or simultaneous use of anabolic steroid and alcohol promotes ovarian and uterine toxicity in adult female rats.

OBJETIVO: Analisar a prevalência de resistência à insulina de acordo com diferentes medidas antropométricas e bioquímicas em mulheres com síndrome dos ovários policísticos. MÉTODOS: Foram analisadas, retrospectivamente, 189 pacientes com síndrome dos ovários policísticos. O diagnóstico de resistência à insulina foi obtido utilizando-se insulinemia, HOMA-IR, QUICKI, índice de sensibilidade à insulina e relação glicemia/insulina. Foram utilizados o índice de massa corpórea e o lipid accumulation product. Para análise dos resultados, aplicou-se a estatística descritiva, a ANOVA, o pós-teste de Tukey e a correlação de Pearson. RESULTADOS: As pacientes apresentaram média de idade de 24,9±5,2 e de índice de massa corpórea de 31,8±7,6. O percentual de pacientes obesas foi de 57,14%. Dentre os métodos de investigação de resistência à insulina, o índice de sensibilidade à insulina foi a técnica que mais detectou (56,4%) a presença de resistência à insulina nas mulheres com síndrome dos ovários policísticos. em 87% das pacientes obesas, detectou-se a resistência à insulina. A relação glicemia/insulinemia de jejum e o índice de sensibilidade à insulina apresentaram correlação forte com o lipid accumulation product. CONCLUSÃO: A prevalência de resistência à insulina variou de acordo com o método utilizado e foi maior quanto maior o índice de massa corpórea. O lipid accumulation product também está relacionado à resistência à insulina.

In the absence of the queen, a few workers of F. s. languida developed their ovaries forming nevertheless, only one follicle with a single oocyte which was unable to form yolk spheres. They never showed signals of degeneration or resorption. The corpora allata were homogeneous during all the 5 months of orphanage studied. Its activity might be low but constant, able to maintain the follicle entire, but unable to promote the yolk spheres assembly.

A influência do hormônio juvenil sobre o desenvolvimento do ovário de larvas de operárias de Apis mellifera foi analisada levando em conta a determinação trófica das castas, segundo a qual a alimentação larval é controlada pelas operárias de maneira a promover uma diferenciação de castas controlada pela produção e disponibilidade desse hormônio. A hipótese testada é que a ação do hormônio juvenil seja capaz de proteger ou prevenir a degeneração nos ovários das larvas de operárias. Foi feita aplicação tópica de 1 ml de hormônio dissolvido em hexano na concentração de 1 mg/ml do segundo até o quinto dia de vida larval, e a morfologia dos ovários avaliada nos dias subseqüentes à aplicação até ao sexto dia de vida larval. Como controles foram utilizadas larvas nas quais se aplicou 1 ml de hexano e larvas que não receberam nenhum tratamento. Constatou-se que o efeito do hormônio juvenil varia conforme a idade larval em que é aplicado e que este efeito foi maior quando a aplicação foi feita no terceiro dia de vida larval.

Estudaram-se a morfologia externa, a sintopia e os dados métricos dos ovários, tubas uterinas e útero em 14 fêmeas adultas de cateto (12 adultas, uma prenhe e uma jovem) e em sete fêmeas de queixada (três jovens e quatro adultas), e o material, após fixação em solução aquosa de formol a 10%, foi dissecado. O material foi obtido na Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU) - Campus Palotina e na Universidade Estadual Paulista - Campus de Ilha Solteira. Os ovários apresentaram-se ovalados e de superfície irregular, quando havia corpo lúteo ou folículo. As tubas uterinas mostraram-se longas, finas e enoveladas e terminando numa extremidade ovárica com fímbrias; a comunicação com o útero ocorreu de maneira contínua. Uma bolsa ovárica parcial, com um largo orifício, contém o ovário. O útero, bicórneo, apresentou um corpo curto e uma cérvix longa, com projeções anulares para o canal cervical, conferindo-lhe luz espiralada. Os cornos uterinos mostraram-se curtos, voltados ventralmente e em forma de hélice.

Estudou-se a vascularização arterial em nove fêmeas adultas de cateto, incluindo uma jovem e uma gestante, e em seis fêmeas de queixada (três jovens e três adultas). Para este estudo as artérias foram injetadas com solução de látex Neoprene 650 corado e após fixação de formol foram dissecadas. O material foi obtido na Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU) - Campus Palotina e na Universidade Estadual Paulista - Campus de Ilha Solteira. As artérias responsáveis pela irrigação sangüínea dos ovários, tubas uterinas e útero são as artérias útero-ováricas, que emitem as artérias uterinas e ováricas, e as artérias vaginais, estando presentes em todas as amostras, porém variando suas origens. As artérias ováricas emitiram ramos para os ovários, tubas uterinas (ramos tubáricos) e extremidades craniais dos cornos uterinos (ramos tubo-uterinos) e as artérias uterinas enviaram ramos para os cornos uterinos, corpos uterinos e porções craniais da cérvix uterina. As artérias vaginais enviaram ramos para a cérvix e a vagina.

Vinte fetos fêmeas em diferentes fases de gestação da raça Nelore foram coletados para a realização desta pesquisa. Os ovários direitos e esquerdos foram dissecados e mensurados para verificação de seus comprimentos e larguras e em seguida, foram fixados inteiros em paraformaldeído tamponado a 4,00%, processados e incluídos em paraplástico. Os cortes com 5 mm foram submetidos à coloração com hematoxilina, tricrômio de Masson (para fibras colágenas), Verhoeff (para fibras elásticas) e com reticulina (para fibras reticulares). Os resultados mostraram que não há diferença significativa das mensurações entre os lados direito e esquerdo para os ovários dos fetos bovinos em diferentes fases de gestação, mas há correlação entre os valores obtidos das mensurações dos ovários em função da idade dos fetos, ou seja, o crescimento dos ovários acompanha o crescimento fetal. Os fetos em diferentes fases de gestação, apresentam epitélio germinativo, túnica albugínea e tecido conjuntivo no córtex e medula característicos da morfologia ovariana. Nos ovários de fetos com até 19 semanas de idade gestacional, é evidente a presença em grande quantidade de folículos primordiais e primários. A partir de 22 semanas de gestação, é evidente a presença em grande número, de folículos ovarianos em diferentes estágios de crescimento. A partir de 17 semanas de gestação, observa-se na medula, cordões com luz irregular revestidos por células cúbicas. As variações mais marcantes ocorreram a partir de 22 semanas de gestação.

The morphologic events related to the prenatal development of the ovaries in 81 Nelore breed embryos and fetuses gathered in a local slaughterhouse, with age range from 26 to 240 days following fecundation were studied. The age of fetuses was estimated from measures taken in the cranium-caudal direction. The sex was identified from macroscopic observations and using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique. For histology the gonads were fixed in Bourn's fluid for 24 hours and 5 μm thick section's were stained with hematoxylin-eosin. Formation of gonadal ridge and presence of germinal cells were found within it at 29 and 34 days, respectively. Oogonia and primordial follicles, unlike the growing follicles, exhibited significant differences in diameter in the various periods studied. Positive correlation (P<0.05) was found between the diameter of oogonia and their nucleus as well as between primordial and growing follicles with their oocytes and respective nuclei. The gonad was fully formed at 40 days. Primordial follicles, in the growing stage, and antral follicles first appeared, approximately at 95, 140, and 180 days, respectively. Despite the onset and duration of oogenesis being similar to that of taurine breeds, folliculogenesis initiates at an early stages in the Nelore breed.

The objective of this study is to use different in vitro culture systems of preantral follicles from Nelore breed bovine fetuses in the last gestation quarter. The evaluation of treatments considered the time of growth of isolated follicles. Preantral follicles were mechanically isolated and submitted to the individual culture, for 9 days, in media no supplemented or supplemented with fetal calf serum (FCS), bovine serum albumin (BSA) or synthetic defined supplement substitute of serum KnockoutSR (KNO). We have also evaluated the effects of collagen gel or fetal calf fibroblast monolayer as substratum for in vitro cultures. The increase on the follicular diameter was followed in the first day (0 h), at the 72 h, 144 h and 216 h. Considering cultures of isolated follicles, the results have shown that the association between media supplemented with FCS and collagen gel was significantly more efficient on the increase of the follicular diameter than other treatments. It is not still established a system of appropriate cultivation that sustains the differentiation and multiplication of the granular cells and that maintains the contact of the same ones with the oocyte to provide molecules and factors that supply the metabolic demand. We also understand that our results also represent another promising step on the search for the ultimate system of in vitro culture of preantral follicles from bovines.

Objective: Compare the cryoprotectants Dimethyl Sulphoxide (DMSO), Ethylene Glycol (EG) and their association for cryopreservation of sheep ovarian cortex. Methodology: Fragments collected from ovaries were divided into 3 parts. 1. One part from sample was destined for analysis of fresh material. 2. The second part was incubated with solution of freezing having 1,5M EG or 1,5M DMSO or 1,5MEG + 1,5M DMSO and washed for dilution of the cryoprotectants. 3. The third part was submitted to cryopreservation using the same cryoprotectans (EG 1,5M; DMSO 1,5M and EG + DMSO 1,5M) and cryopreserved. In all groups, one part of sample was submitted to pre-antral follicles isolation and the remainder was destined to ultra-structural analysis. Results: After isolation of fresh primordial follicles (control), the percentage of viable follicles was 78,9%. The percentage of viable follicles only exposed to cryoprotectants 1,5M EG, 1,5M DMSO and 1,5M EG + 1,5M DMSO was 77,1%, 68,4% and 60,7% respectively. After cryopreservation were 75%, 60% and 55,6% respectively. Ultra-structural analysis of the primordial follicles derived from fresh ovarian fragments or from fragments just exposed to the cryoprotectants showed similar morphology. However, in frozen samples, alterations of mitochondria were observed in all groups. Despite this, the integrity of the remained organelles was preserved in follicles cryopreserved with EG, while that in others groups (DMSO and association) an excess of vacuolizaton in cytoplasm of oocytes and swelling of nuclear membrane was observed indicating degeneration. Conclusion: The Ehilene Glycol seems to be the cryoprotector more adequated for cryopreservation of sheep ovarian tissue.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the importance of the oral glucose tolerance test for the diagnosis of glucose intolerance (GI) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM-2) in women with PCOS. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted on 247 patients with PCOS selected at random. The diagnosis of GI was obtained from the two-hour oral glucose tolerance test with 75 g of glucose according to the criteria of the World Health Organization (WHO) (GI: 120 minutes for plasma glucose =140 mg/dL and <200 mg/dL), and the diagnosis of DM-2 was obtained by both the oral glucose tolerance test (DM: 120 minutes for plasma glucose =200 mg/dL) and fasting glucose using the criteria of the American Diabetes Association (impaired fasting glucose: fasting plasma glucose =100 and <126 mg/dL; DM: fasting glucose =126 mg/dL). A logistic regression model for repeated measures was applied to compare the oral glucose tolerance test with fasting plasma glucose. ANOVA followed by the Tukey test was used for the analysis of the clinical and biochemical characteristics of patients with and without GI and/or DM-2. A p<0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: PCOS patients had a mean age of 24.8±6.3, and body mass index (BMI) of 18.3 to 54.9 kg/m2 (32.5±7.6). The percentage of obese patients was 64%, the percentage of overweight patients was 18.6% and 17.4% had healthy weight. The oral glucose tolerance test identified 14 cases of DM-2 (5.7%), while fasting glucose detected only three cases (1.2%), and the frequency of these disorders was higher with increasing age and BMI. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study demonstrate the superiority of the oral glucose tolerance test in relation to fasting glucose in diagnosing DM-2 in young women with PCOS and should be performed in these patients.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the clinical, ultrasonographic, biochemical and metabolic alterations of adolescents with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). METHODS: Retrospective observational study conducted on 44 adolescents aged 12 to 19 years, diagnosed with PCOS according to the Rotterdam Consensus. Metabolic changes were assessed according to the recommendations of the International Diabetes Federation, considering: waist circumference (WC) ≥90th percentile (10-15 years of age) or >80 cm (age >16 years), fasting glucose >100 mg/dL, triglycerides >150 mg/dL, HDL <40 mg/dL, and blood pressure ≥Hg 130/85 mm. RESULTS: Mean age was 16.7±2.2 years and age at menarche was 11.8±1.4 years. The menstrual irregularity most frequently observed was amenorrhea (72.7%) followed by oligomenorrhea (27.3%); hirsutism was observed in 86.4% and acne in 56.8%. Polycystic ovaries were observed by ultrasound only in 27.3%. Mean BMI was 30.3±6.6 kg/m2. According to BMI, 52.3% of adolescents were obese, 13.6% were overweight and 6.8% had a healthy weight. Increased waist circumference (63.6%, 28/44) and the reduction of HDL-C (34.1%, 15/44) were the metabolic changes most frequently observed. Increased triglycerides were observed in 27.3% (12/44) and increased blood pressure and impaired fasting glucose were found in 9.1% (4/44) and 4.5% (2/44) of cases, respectively. Acanthosis nigricans was observed in 52.3% and insulin resistance in 62.8% of the adolescents with PCOS. Metabolic syndrome was identified in six children (13.6%), all of them obese or overweight. CONCLUSION: In the adolescents with PCOS studied here, menstrual irregularity and hirsutism were the most common clinical manifestations, while the sonographic findings consistent with polycystic ovaries were less prevalent. Obesity associated with insulin resistance predisposes these adolescents to a higher frequency of metabolic disorders.
