A 47-year old woman underwent a hysterectomy for<br />
excessively heavy menses. She had previously had four<br />
normal deliveries. This structure w<strong>as</strong> removed, what is<br />
wrong?

Aristotle 384-322 BC<br />
Generation<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>Animal</strong>s<br />
• Fetus arises from<br />
menstrual blood<br />
• Seminal pl<strong>as</strong>ma initiates<br />
<strong>the</strong> conversion <strong>of</strong><br />
menstrual blood<br />
Vagina opening<br />
• Semen from all parts <strong>of</strong><br />
body
The Age <strong>of</strong> Gross Anatomy<br />
• Fallopius (1562)<br />
– Describes <strong>the</strong> oviduct<br />
• Coiter (1573)<br />
– Describes <strong>the</strong> corpus luteum<br />
• Regnier de Graff (1672)<br />
– Describes <strong>the</strong> antral follicle (Graafian Follicle)<br />
Development <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Microscope<br />
• van Leewenhoek (1677)<br />
– Describes spermatozoa<br />
in semen<br />
What is <strong>the</strong> role <strong>of</strong> spermatozoa?<br />
• Spallanzani (1780)<br />
– Sperm were <strong>the</strong> fertilizing agent in semen<br />
– Successful artificial insemination <strong>of</strong> a dog<br />
• Dum<strong>as</strong> (1825)<br />
– Proves sperm <strong>the</strong> fertilizing agent<br />
Modern Reprod. Physiology<br />
• Gonads produce steroid hormones<br />
• Regulation <strong>of</strong> estrous cycles in females<br />
• Radioimmuno<strong>as</strong>say (RIA)<br />
• Artificial Insemination<br />
• Cryopreservation<br />
• Prostaglandin used to control estrous<br />
cycles<br />
• Biotechnology<br />
Approach to Applications<br />
• Develop b<strong>as</strong>ic knowledge <strong>of</strong> how<br />
system works<br />
• Investigate methods that can perturb<br />
<strong>the</strong> system<br />
• Manipulate <strong>the</strong> system to improve<br />
reproduction<br />
– Estrus Synchronization<br />
Enhancing Reproduction<br />
• Small improvements have pr<strong>of</strong>ound<br />
effects on production<br />
– 3% improvement in birth rate results in an<br />
additional:<br />
• 1 million beef calves/year<br />
• 3.2 million pigs/year<br />
• 3.7 million gallons <strong>of</strong> milk/year
