Stem cell scientists have revealed the origins of a common ovarian cancer by modeling fallopian tube tissues, allowing them to characterize how a genetic mutation puts women at high risk for this ...

A new study creates a detailed 'atlas' of the various cell types and their gene activities within the highly specialized fallopian tube, paving the way for new research into infertility and other ...

Pelvic inflammatory diseases occur when pathogenic bacteria colonize areas of the female reproductive system, such as the uterus or fallopian tubes. While easily treated with antibiotics, these ...

The fallopian tube is the site of fertilization, where once a month for the duration of a female's post-pubescent, pre-menopausal life, an egg is moved from the ovary, ready for fertilization by a ...

Stem cell scientists at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center have revealed the origins of a common type of ovarian cancer by modeling fallopian tube tissues. Studies using the fallopian tube organoids allowed ...

Human tissues normally discarded after surgical procedures could be a rich additional source of stem cells for regenerative medicine. New research from BioMed Central's open access Journal of ...

The journey of the egg and the embryo through the fallopian tube or oviduct toward the uterus is not well understood, mainly because it is inaccessible for direct imaging. Looking to shed new light on ...
