This cell type is found mainly on the apex of the mucosal folds and contributes, together with peristaltic contractions, to the self-propulsion of spermatozoa, the transport of ovum during ovulation and the transport of the fertilized ovum to the intramural fallopian tube. A fallopian tube ciliated cell has a columnar shape and contains an oval or round nucleus, often located perpendicular or parallel to the long axis of the cell. oviduct ciliated cell CT CL:4030007 fallopian tube ciliated cell Homo sapiens sequence collection fallopian tube uterine tube infundibulum oviduct epithelium ciliated columnar oviduct epithelium ampulla of uterine tube isthmus of fallopian tube fimbria of uterine tube intramural segment of fallopian tube mucosa of fallopian tube ampulla mucosa of fallopian tube fimbria mucosa of fallopian tube infundibulum mucosa of fallopian tube intramural segment mucosa of fallopian tube isthmus plica of fallopian tube ampulla plica of fallopian tube infundibulum plica of fallopian tube intramural segment plica of fallopian tube isthmus
