Morphological and Immunohistochemical Features of Interdigital Sinus in Kivircik Sheep

Sinus interdigitalis salgıları koyunlarda seksüel davranış ve üreme sürecinde rol oynamaktadır. Bu çalışma ile Kıvırcık koyunlarda sinus interdigitalis'in, topografik, anatomik ve immünohistolojik özelliklerinin tanımlanması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmada kullanılan sinus interdigitalis 'ler, mezbahada kesilen 50 adet Kıvırcık koyunun ön ayaklarından disseke edildi. Şekli bir pipoyu andıran sinus interdigitalis'in, iki parmak arasında articulatio interphalangea proksimalis ve distalis manus hizasında yerleştiği gözlendi. Sinus interdigitalis duvarının epidermis, dermis ve fibröz kapsül olarak üç katmandan oluştuğu gözlendi. Epidermis'in, çok katlı yassı keratinize epitelden oluştuğu saptanırken, dermis katmanında yağ bezleri, kıl folikülleri, mm. arrectores pilorum ve apokrin ter bezlerinin varlığı görüldü. Ayrıca, fibröz kapsül içerisinde kapillar damarlar ve yağ doku bulunmaktaydı. Sinus 'un epidermis, apokrin ter bezleri ve yağ bezlerinde östrojen reseptörleri için immünhistokimyasal tepki olduğu gözlendi. Sonuç olarak, sinus interdigitalis'in topografik, anatomik ve immünohistolojik özellikleri hakkında elde ettiğimiz sonuçlar, koyunlardaki seksüel davranış ve üreme sürecini anlama ve sinus interdigitalis'in operasyonlarına yeni bir yaklaşım geliştirmesi bakımından önemlidir. Çalışma, Kıvırcık koyunlarda sinus interdigitalis'in immunohistokimyasal yapısı üzerine yapılan ilk çalışmadır

Kıvırcık Koyunlarda Sinus Interdigitalis'in Morfolojik ve Immunohistokimyasal Özellikleri

Interdigital sinus secretions play a role in sexual behavior and reproductive process of sheep. In the present study, it was aimed to characterize the topographical, anatomical and immunohistological features of interdigital sinus in Kivircik sheep. The interdigital sinuses were dissected from 50 forefeet of female Kivircik sheep which were slaughtered in the slaughterhouse. The shape of sinus resembled a pipe and was located between the proximal and distal interphalangeal joints of two digits. The wall of interdigital sinus had three layers as epidermis, dermis and fibrous capsule. Epidermis consisted of a stratified squamous keratinized epithelium. Sebaceous glands, hair follicles, arrector pili muscles, and apocrine sweat glands were in the dermis. Furthermore, there were vessels and adipose tissue in the fibrous capsule. There was immunohistochemical reaction for estrogen receptor expressed in epidermis, apocrin sweat glands and sebaceous glands of interdigital sinus. In conclusion, our results about the topographical, anatomical and immunohistological features of interdigital sinus are very important to understand sexual behavior and reproductive process of sheep, and to make a new approach for its surgery. Furthermore, this study is the first to report the interdigital sinus of Kivircik sheep immunohistochemically
