  • Title: Postnatal development of the rat oviductal epithelium.
    Author: Jirsová Z, Vernerová Z.
    Journal: Folia Morphol (Praha); 1990; 38(2):190-4. PubMed ID: 2210508.
    Abstract:
    Submicroscopic examination of rat oviducts in the early postnatal period showed that the character of the epithelium remained relatively indifferent up to the 6th day. Typical findings in this phase include an apical migration of the centrioles, with subsequent formation of solitary cilia; ciliated cells were an isolated occurrence. Ciliogenesis in the rat oviductal epithelium starts between the 8th and the 10th day. A continuous kinociliary apparatus is formed on the basis of centriole replication. The first secretory and peg cells appear towards the end of the second week.
