[The influence of pregnancy and hormone on the lymphatic stomata in guinea pig's ovary bursa]
In order to study the influence of pregnancy and hormone on the lymphatic stomata of guinea pig's ovary bursa, the lymphatic stomata of ovary bursa were observed during pregnancy and by using exogenous hormone, including serum gonadotrophin (PMSG) combined with human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) to promote ovulation and androgen to inhibit the ovary. Then the lymphatic stomata in the inner layer of ovary bursa and their absorption functions were observed with scanning electron microscope (SEM) and trypan blue as a tracer respectively. The lymphatic stomata were also counted by the Elescope computer image processing system. We found that the quantity of tracer absorbed by the lymphatic stomata of ovary bursa in pregnant group was more than that in ovulation-promoted group, and least in the androgen-treated group, which had statistical significance between each couples of them (P
