Myotis myotis’ DE (CHİROPTERA: VESPERTİLİONİDAE) İMPLANTASYONUN HİSTOLOJİK OLARAK İNCELENMESİ

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Myotis myotis türü yarasalarda implantasyon histolojik olarak ışık mikroskobunda (Olympus BX51) incelenmiştir. Dişi yarasa örnekleri Kırklareli’ de bulunan Koyunbaba Mağarası’ndan yakalanmıştır. Myotis myotis türü yarasa örneklerinin uteruslarından alınan histolojik kesitler, Hematoksilen-Eosin (Mayer’s), Gomori trichrome ile boyanmış ve incelenmiştir. Myotis myotis’de uterus bicornis’ dir ve implantasyonun uterusun sağ boynuzunda gerçekleştiği gözlenmiştir. Embriyonik disk amnion boşluğunun taban kısmında yer almıştır. Trofoblast, sitotrofoblast ve sinsisyotrofoblast tabakalarına farklılaşmıştır.

HISTOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION of IMPLANTATION in Myotis myotis (CHİROPTERA: VESPERTİLİONİDAE)

Abstract

In this study, implantation in Myotis myotis was examined histologically by light microscopy (Olympus BX51). İndividuals of female bats were captured from the Koyunbaba Cave in Kırklareli. Histological sections of uterus of Myotis myotis were stained with Hematoxylin-Eosin (Mayer’s), Gomori trichrome and examined. We observed that Myotis myotis has a bicornuate uterus and implantation occurs in the right horn. Embriyonic disc is located at the basal side of the amniotic cavity. Trophoblast differentiated to cytotrophoblast and syncytiotrophoblast.
