## Abstract It is evident that members of several growth factor families are actively involved in embryogenesis from its earliest phases. Several reports also indicate the oviduct as a possible source of growth factors, suggesting an active role of this organ in mammalian embryonic development. The
Activins and inhibins belong to the transforming growth factor- (TGF-) superfamily of multifunctional cytokines that bind to transmembrane receptors with serine/threonine kinase activity. In this study, we characterized the levels of expression of 3 activin/inhibin subunits (A, B, ␣), and 2 type
