Abstract

Objective: To compare histological changes of the vaginal wall during FOLLICULAR and luteal phase of the OESTRUS CYCLE in river BUFFALOES. Design: Descriptive study. Animals: 30 specimens from cyclical BUFFALOES in the FOLLICULAR and luteal phase. Procedures: Vaginal specimens were prepared and stained by the method of Hematoxylin - Eosine and three special methods of Verhoof, Toluidine blue and P.A.S. The number of cell layers; type of epithelial cells, vascular activities; distribution of plasma cells, elastic and collagen fibers in the mucosa and submucosa were studied. Statistical analysis: Data from BUFFALOES in FOLLICULAR or luteal phase were compared using student "t" test, ANOVA, correlation coefficient and regression analysis. Results: Results of the present histological study indicated that during FOLLICULAR phase, the epithelial cell structure was stratified cuboidal or squamous, which in some areas especially in the cranial part of vagina one layer of the columnar secretary cells was over the superficial layer of the epithelium. In addition, secretary activity of epithelial cells and blood vessels increased in the FOLLICULAR phase, which was less active in the cranial part. In the luteal phase, epithelial structure was stratified cuboidal and squamous. There was significant increase in accumulation of lymphocytes, plasma cells and mast cells. This may increase the histological defense mechanism of the organ. Results of the present hystomorphometry study indicated that the thickness and the number of the cellular layers of the vaginal epithelium in the FOLLICULAR phase, in three different parts of the vagina increased significantly (P<0.001) in comparison with those of the luteal phase. This increasing of thickness related more to the number of cellular layers than to the size of the cells. Clinical implications: Some differences was shown in the histological and histomorphometrical structure of the vaginal wall during the phases of the OESTRUS CYCLE in BUFFALOES, which may be used as a diagnostic method of the FOLLICULAR and LUTEAL PHASES in BUFFALOES.
