Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Brain-Testicular Axis  Hormonal regulation of spermatogenesis and testicular androgen production involving the hypothalamus, anterior pituitary gland, and the testes

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Brain-Testicular Axis  Testicular regulation involves three sets of hormones:  GnRH, which indirectly stimulates the testes through:  Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)  Luteinizing hormone (LH)  Gonadotropins, which directly stimulate the testes  Testicular hormones, which exert negative feedback controls

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Hormonal Regulation of Testicular Function  The hypothalamus releases gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)  GnRH stimulates the anterior pituitary to secrete FSH and LH  FSH causes sustentacular cells to release androgen- binding protein (ABP)  LH stimulates interstitial cells to release testosterone  ABP binding of testosterone enhances spermatogenesis

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Hormonal Regulation of Testicular Function  Feedback inhibition on the hypothalamus and pituitary results from:  Rising levels of testosterone  Increased inhibin Figure 27.10

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Mechanism and Effects of Testosterone Activity  Testosterone is synthesized from cholesterol  It must be transformed to exert its effects on some target cells  Prostate – it is converted into dihydrotestosterone (DHT) before it can bind within the nucleus  Neurons – it is converted into estrogen to bring about stimulatory effects  Testosterone targets all accessory organs and its deficiency causes these organs to atrophy

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Male Secondary Sex Characteristics  Male hormones make their appearance at puberty and induce changes in nonreproductive organs, including  Appearance of pubic, axillary, and facial hair  Enhanced growth of the chest and deepening of the voice  Skin thickens and becomes oily  Bones grow and increase in density  Skeletal muscles increase in size and mass

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Male Secondary Sex Characteristics  Testosterone is the basis of libido in both males and females

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Female Reproductive Anatomy  Ovaries are the primary female reproductive organs  Make female gametes (ova)  Secrete female sex hormones (estrogen and progesterone)  Accessory ducts include uterine tubes, uterus, and vagina  Internal genitalia – ovaries and the internal ducts  External genitalia – external sex organs

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Female Reproductive Anatomy Figure 27.11

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings The Ovaries  Paired organs on each side of the uterus held in place by several ligaments  Ovarian – anchors the ovary medially to the uterus  Suspensory – anchors the ovary laterally to the pelvic wall  Mesovarium – suspends the ovary in between  Broad ligament – contains the suspensory ligament and the mesovarium

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings The Ovaries Figure 27.14a

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Ovaries  Blood supply – ovarian arteries and the ovarian branch of the uterine artery  They are surrounded by a fibrous tunica albuginea, which is covered by a layer of epithelial cells called the germinal epithelium  Embedded in the ovary cortex are ovarian follicles

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Ovaries  Each follicle consists of an immature egg called an oocyte  Cells around the oocyte are called:  Follicle cells (one cell layer thick)  Granulosa cells (when more than one layer is present)

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Ovaries  Primordial follicle – one layer of squamouslike follicle cells surrounds the oocyte  Primary follicle – two or more layers of cuboidal granulosa cells enclose the oocyte  Secondary follicle – has a fluid-filled space between granulosa cells that coalesces to form a central antrum

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Ovaries  Graafian follicle – secondary follicle at its most mature stage that bulges from the surface of the ovary  Ovulation – ejection of the oocyte from the ripening follicle  Corpus luteum – ruptured follicle after ovulation

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Ovaries Figure 27.12

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Uterine Tubes (Fallopian Tubes) and Oviducts  Receive the ovulated oocyte and provide a site for fertilization  Empty into the superolateral region of the uterus via the isthmus  Expand distally around the ovary forming the ampulla  The ampulla ends in the funnel-shaped, ciliated infundibulum containing fingerlike projections called fimbriae

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Uterine Tubes  The uterine tubes have no contact with the ovaries and the ovulated oocyte is cast into the peritoneal cavity  Beating cilia on the fimbriae create currents to carry the oocyte into the uterine tube  The oocyte is carried toward the uterus by peristalsis and ciliary action

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Uterine Tubes  Nonciliated cells keep the oocyte and the sperm nourished and moist  Mesosalpinx – visceral peritoneum that supports the uterine tubes

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Uterus  Hollow, thick-walled organ located in the pelvis anterior to the rectum and posterosuperior to the bladder  Body – major portion of the uterus  Fundus – rounded region superior to the entrance of the uterine tubes  Isthmus – narrowed region between the body and cervix

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Uterus  Cervix – narrow neck which projects into the vagina inferiorly  Cervical canal – cavity of the cervix that communicates with:  The vagina via the external os  The uterine body via the internal os  Cervical glands secrete mucus that covers the external os and blocks sperm entry except during midcycle

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Supports of the Uterus  Mesometrium – portion of the broad ligament that supports the uterus laterally  Lateral cervical ligaments – extend from the cervix and superior part of the vagina to the lateral walls of the pelvis  Uterosacral ligaments – paired ligaments that secure the uterus to the sacrum  Round ligaments – bind the anterior wall to the labia majora

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Peritoneal Pouches  Several cul-de-sacs of peritoneum exist around the uterus  Vesicouterine pouch – lies between the bladder and the uterus  Rectouterine pouch – lies between the rectum and the uterus

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Uterine Wall  Composed of three layers  Perimetrium – outermost serous layer; the visceral peritoneum  Myometrium – middle layer; interlacing layers of smooth muscle  Endometrium – mucosal lining of the uterine cavity

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Uterine Wall Figure 27.15b

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Endometrium  Has numerous uterine glands that change in length as the endometrial thickness changes  Stratum functionalis:  Undergoes cyclic changes in response to ovarian hormones  Is shed during menstruation  Stratum basalis:  Forms a new functionalis after menstruation ends  Does not respond to ovarian hormones

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Uterine Vascular Supply  Uterine arteries – arise from the internal iliacs, ascend the sides of the uterus and send branches into the uterine wall  Arcuate arteries – branches of the uterine arteries in the myometrium that give rise to radial branches  Radial branches – descend into the endometrium and give off:  Spiral arteries to the stratum functionalis  Straight arteries to the stratum basalis

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Uterine Vascular Supply  Degeneration and regeneration of spiral arteries causes the functionalis to shed during menstruation  Veins of the endometrium are thin-walled with occasional sinusoidal enlargements

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Vagina  Thin-walled tube lying between the bladder and the rectum, extending from the cervix to the exterior of the body  The urethra is embedded in the anterior wall  Provides a passageway for birth, menstrual flow, and is the organ of copulation

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Vagina  Wall consists of three coats: fibroelastic adventitia, smooth muscle muscularis, and a stratified squamous mucosa  Mucosa near the vaginal orifice forms an incomplete partition called the hymen  Vaginal fornix – upper end of the vagina surrounding the cervix

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Vagina Figure 27.16a

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Female External Genitalia: Deep Figure 27.16b

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings External Genitalia: Vulva (Pudendum)  Lies external to the vagina and includes the mons pubis, labia, clitoris, and vestibular structures  Mons pubis – round, fatty area overlying the pubic symphysis  Labia majora – elongated, hair-covered, fatty skin folds homologous to the male scrotum  Labia minora – hair-free skin folds lying within the labia majora; homologous to the ventral penis

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings External Genitalia: Vulva (Pudendum)  Greater vestibular glands  Pea-size glands flanking the vagina  Homologous to the bulbourethral glands  Keep the vestibule moist and lubricated

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings External Genitalia: Vulva (Pudendum)  Clitoris (homologous to the penis)  Erectile tissue hooded by the prepuce  The exposed portion is called the glans  Perineum  Diamond-shaped region between the pubic arch and coccyx  Bordered by the ischial tuberosities laterally

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Mammary Glands  Modified sweat glands consisting of lobes that radiate around and open at the nipple  Areola – pigmented skin surrounding the nipple  Suspensory ligaments attach the breast to underlying muscle fascia  Lobes contain glandular alveoli that produce milk in lactating women  Compound alveolar glands pass milk to lactiferous ducts, which open to the outside

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Structure of Lactating Mammary Glands Figure 27.17

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Breast Cancer  Usually arises from the epithelial cells of the ducts  Risk factors include:  Early onset of menses or late menopause  No pregnancies or the first pregnancy late in life  Previous history of breast cancer or family history of breast cancer  Hereditary factors including mutations to the genes BRCA1 and BRCA2  70% of women with breast cancer have no known risk factors

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Breast Cancer: Detection and Treatment  Early detection is by self-examination and mammography  Treatment depends upon the characteristics of the lesion  Radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery followed by irradiation and chemotherapy  Today, lumpectomy is the surgery used rather than radical mastectomy

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Oogenesis  Production of female sex cells by meiosis  In the fetal period, oogonia (2n ovarian stem cells) multiply by mitosis and store nutrients  Primordial follicles appear as oogonia are transformed into primary oocytes  Primary oocytes begin meiosis but stall in prophase I

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Oogenesis: Puberty  At puberty, one activated primary oocyte produces two haploid cells  The first polar body  The secondary oocyte  The secondary oocyte arrests in metaphase II and is ovulated  If penetrated by sperm the second oocyte completes meiosis II, yielding:  One large ovum (the functional gamete)  A tiny second polar body

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Figure 27.19

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Ovarian Cycle  Monthly series of events associated with the maturation of an egg  Follicular phase – period of follicle growth (days 1–14)  Luteal phase – period of corpus luteum activity (days 14–28)  Ovulation occurs midcycle

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Follicular Phase  The primordial follicle, directed by the oocyte, becomes a primary follicle  Primary follicle becomes a secondary follicle  The theca folliculi and granulosa cells cooperate to produce estrogens  The zona pellucida forms around the oocyte  The antrum is formed

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Follicular Phase  The secondary follicle becomes a vesicular follicle  The antrum expands and isolates the oocyte and the corona radiata  The full size follicle (vesicular follicle) bulges from the external surface of the ovary  The primary oocyte completes meiosis I, and the stage is set for ovulation

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Ovarian Cycle Figure 27.20

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Ovulation  Ovulation occurs when the ovary wall ruptures and expels the secondary oocyte  Mittelschmerz – a twinge of pain sometimes felt at ovulation  1-2% of ovulations release more than one secondary oocyte, which if fertilized, results in fraternal twins

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Luteal Phase  After ovulation, the ruptured follicle collapses, granulosa cells enlarge, and along with internal thecal cells, form the corpus luteum  The corpus luteum secretes progesterone and estrogen  If pregnancy does not occur, the corpus luteum degenerates in 10 days, leaving a scar (corpus albicans)  If pregnancy does occur, the corpus luteum produces hormones until the placenta takes over that role (at about 3 months)

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Establishing the Ovarian Cycle  During childhood, ovaries grow and secrete small amounts of estrogens that inhibit the hypothalamic release of GnRH  As puberty nears, GnRH is released; FSH and LH are released by the pituitary, which act on the ovaries  These events continue until an adult cyclic pattern is achieved and menarche occurs
