Effect of estrogen on angiotensin converting enzyme in immature quail oviduct
1Division of Physiology and Reproduction, Central Avian Research Institute, Izatnagar, India.
Abstract:
Effect of oestradiol was studied on the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE)--a component of renin angiotensin system, in oviduct of immature quails of 15 days of age. ACE was studied in whole oviduct, magnum, shell gland and the glandular epithelium of magnum and shell gland. It was found that whole oviduct had a significantly higher level of ACE in control than those treated with exogenous estrogen at three dose levels (200, 400 or 600 micrograms). ACE contents of whole muscle and glandular epithelium did not differ but magnum had higher ACE level than the shell gland. Results are explained on the basis of functional role of oviductal parts.
