mucification1930

1930 Proc. Royal Soc. Edinb. 50 88 Mucification..is typical of the second phase of the genital cycle; it always accompanies true or pseudo-pregnancy.

1957 Brit. Jrnl. Radiol. 30 243/1 The intermediate cells did not cornify but instead differentiated into mucus-secreting cells, the mucification being most marked on the third and fourth days after the end of treatment.

1996 Cell & Tissue Res. 284 373 In rodents, the vaginal epithelium shows cyclic changes with an alternating pattern of keratinization under estrogen control and mucification under progesterone control.

2. Increased production of mucoid extracellular matrix in the cumulus of an ovarian follicle prior to ovulation.

ΚΠ

1978 Endocrinology 102 1797/1 It was found that mucification, operationally defined as acquisition of the ability of hyaluronidase to disperse the cumulus cells, began after the ovulatory peak of LH secretion.

1997 Biol. of Reprod. 57 684 Two other agents that induce cumulus mucification by different mechanisms..were compared with FSH.
